Tips when your buffing your nails.

 I remember when I first used a nail buffer, it went all the wrong way... So here are some tips for when you buff your nails! Nail buffers usually come in 2/3 steps, or at most 8 steps. The main three are to remove ridges, smooth the nail, and to shine the nail. I don't always mind it having the shine, because I  put nail polish on after, but its nice to have..


  • When you get a buffer that has 7-8 steps, don't use the first steps to buff your nail bed, use it to shape. Those are too rough for your nail beds. And then use 3-4 to buff your nail beds and so on. 
  • When you see dust, stop and move on to the next step, you do NOT want to buff it so much that it thins your nail paper thin (trust me, I made this mistake ): ) and when you get to the part where you are smoothing/shining it, you can stop when you see the results.
  • Blow or brush the dust away before moving onto the next step. (unless there is no dust)
  • Buff your nails every month to get the ridges/splits off. 
                                                      BENEFITS

  • If you have yellow stained nails from not putting a basecoat before putting your nail color on, you can buff it off since its on the surface of the nail.
  • While you're buffing, it sort of massages your nail bed, this encourages nail growth!
  • You should end up with a really smooth finish, your nail polish should be easier to put on too! It should glide on the nail more easier.

Kaleidescope WetnWild nail polish review

Click To Enlarge!
Once again, I'm back for a review on this nail polish I got from walgreens. I got this for .69 on sale! I have been meaning to buy this glitter nail polish but it was always out wherever I went.. This is a really pretty nail polish, I like it because of all the color it holds in the glitter! I haven't experienced any chipping yet, so far its been day 2, haha.
Now that I think about it, I should of painted my nails black and put this on..

Born pretty store!

Hello!  So I recently got this hello kitty nail art plate from bornprettystore.com from a promotion they were holding, let me just tell you now that they have SO MANY promotions! Right now I believe they are going to be giving out hello kitty nail stickers and chanel stickers as well as crackling nail polish (yes for free) BUT they need to get more fans on their facebook page, every fan they get the more quantity they add to the promotion item. More info here http://www.bornprettystore.com/giveaways-information-n-10.html 
Onto the plate. The plate is a GREAT replacement for konad plates, and konad plates are soo much more money! Konad: aprox $6 Bornprettystore: Aprox $2 .  The plate is really good, but I was soo confused when I first got it. The plates have a plastic cover that is transparent and you have to take it off before using or else it won't work right. If you didn't buy the stamper and scraper, and you don't want to, then you can use an old gift card to scrape it. As for to stamp it, this takes a bunch of steps, 1. go to somewhere cheap and buy a cheap stamper you don't mind ruining (dollartree) that has the rubbery texture. 2. after you've done that, cut off the design so that its almost flat. 3. try and peel the stamper off of the handle its on and you should see a flat side you're going to use for stamping, if it has glue on it, clean it. 3. now if your stamping handle or whatever is  too big (if its small and circular  and it fits on your nail then skip this step and glue the rubber thing back on but make sure the flat side is out.) then draw a circle that is small enough for your nail but big enough for the design. 4. Cut the circle and glue/ put putty on something it fits on as the new handle for your stamper. 5. STAMP!! Also normal nail polish can be used for this, using thick and pigmented polishes are the best.
