Jamberry Nail Wraps

Press Sample

I received a sample of Jamberry nail wraps. It's all go here, with distributors and consultants posting ads on Facebook and having nail parties (fab idea). The samples have a few different sizes to fit a lot of people's fingernails. I took a photo of the samples (post using half of one, woops) to show the sizes and patterns. 

The wraps can be cut in half so each section gives you two nail wraps. Apparently a sheet of these will retail for $24.00. 

I followed the Jamberry Official YouTube application video, and it's surprisingly easy to do yourself.

First I peeled off a wrap and cut it in half...
Then I heated it in front of the heater until it was flexible.

Then I attached it close to my cuticle and trimmed the excess off. 
Anything hanging off the free edge can be filed away...
And TADA! A mismatched selection of Jamberry goodness on my nails. I'll be testing wear over the next week. The mismatching really upsets me though. Might not last so long! I'm quite interested in buying these - they're available online and through the consultants on October 1st.

Barry M Shocking Pink, and Matte top coat

Hi everyone! I'm back from a holiday in the UK, and the next couple of posts will show my haul. It was only a wee one, because I was paranoid about shattering a bottle in my bag. I picked up a few Barry M polishes and their matte top coat which you'll see soon. I also got a couple American Apparel polishes.

Today I'll show you Barry M - Shocking Pink in its glossy state, and then topped with the Barry M matte top coat. I picked these up at Superdrug in England, and they were 4 for £10 which is a good deal!

Here is the photo I took when I first wore this a few months ago in sunny England (taken from my Instagram feed). This is the most colour accurate image I have.
The following pictures were taken with my camera, and the white balance is a little more off than my iPhone6. But here they are!
 On its own - not even any top coat! So glossssyyyy
And with one coat of the matte top coat! Velvety and smooth.

Glad to be back!!
