LCN Urban Expression Set Swatches

Good morning readers!

I've got a fall collection from LCN to show you today called Urban Expressions. LCN says this collection showcases the style of style capitals from around the globe. Let's take a look!


Just as a note, all of these just barely needed 2 coats. And I will be using LCN's descriptions of these shades because they are better than anything I can say. :P

New York Beat is described as a stormy gray- green. 


Paris Chic is a timeless nougat beige.


London Glam is a delicate rose-smoke.


Tokyo Expressions is a steely titanium gray.


So even though it wouldn't be very hard to find dupes of these polishes, the quality can't be beat in terms of formula. LCN does a great job making polish that is easy to work with and doesn't require too many coats.

The LCN Urban Expressions collection is currently available for purchase *here*. You also get a free Color Corrector Pen with your purchase of the set!

*Polish was sent for review in exchange for my honest opinions.

Stud Nail Art

Hi polish lovers!

I have a funky manicure to show you this evening. I recently tried out these studs from Born Pretty Store after seeing a few similar manis on some blogs. My polish inspiration comes from this blog! She's a great one to follow if you aren't already.

So my base is Zoya Ali and my accent is China Glaze Gr8 and Orly Sashay My Way. I think the smaller size of studs that Born Pretty offers would have looked a little more natural (as natural as studs can look on nails. haha). But I was surprised at how much I liked the overall look!


The studs were very easy to apply and laid pretty flat on my nails.


I think I will be giving the smaller size a try soon! Do you like studs for nails?

You can find these and SO much more for nail art and cosmetics at Born Pretty Store. You can also get 10% off your entire order with this code: AJ10W21. :)
