OPI You Don't Know Jacques Suede + Nail Art

Hi readers! I am late posting today...I think life is getting busier everyday or something! Also, I found out I have tonsillitis today. Ugh. 

But the reason you are all here is for nails!! Today I am showing OPI You Don't Know Jacques matte suede. This is 2 coats. I am a bigger fan of mattes with a little something to them rather than a creme matte. 


The orange and yellow stripes in this design come from the elusive dual ended nail art pens that I keep promising a review of. They have sort of a metallic finish to them. This is also my first mani using a design off our new stamping plates (Don't forget order info is in my shop tab)! This design comes from plate D. Funky, but I like it! 


The sad part about this mani is that it looks AMAZING with top coat and I didn't get a pic of it!! Dang busy life. You will just have to imagine it I guess. :)

Born Pretty Emerald Shimmer Nail Polish

Hi everyone! Today's post is more Born Pretty nail polish. I really love this line (it's from the same one as yesterday) and hope to have more to show you in the future! 

This is a gorgeous emerald green shade with the same shimmer/glitter as the rest in this line. It's number is 05. This color just makes me happy, and I think colors in this family are my favorite to wear!


Here it is with the flash, to show how it looks more like a glitter sometimes. PS...I just realized I was holding Seche Vite instead of the actual polish. Oops!


The design for my mani comes from the same plate as yesterday, M74. I hardly ever do flowers as nail art, but it's fun every once in a while! The dots were made with dual ended nail art pens, which I will be reviewing soon. I think my favorite is the ring finger.


Well that's it for today! Use code AMBERL73 for 10% off, as always. <3
