I am back, and I have some pretty hot items from Born Pretty Store here. This is item #30892 and it contains following: Gel polish primer, Gel polish number 39- Red, Gel polish top coat, chrome powder in gold with applicator and chrome powder in silver with applicator. I included photo of this item in insert on the left.
Anything chrome is super hot in nail art world, and with this items, you are getting everything you may need except for UV/LED lamp. I already own one of those, so this kit was haven sent to me.
I am aware that not everybody wants to use gel, and I wanted to give you some food for though, if you ever consider purchasing this.
For this reason, I was playing with this, and that what review should do.
In my regular polish stash, I found perfect color match for a gel polish provided in the kit.
I applied regular polish on my index and ring nail. and gel polish on rest of the nails.
Here is quick collage of the process, that I will explain afterwards.
Using provided applicator, I applied gold powder on 2 and a half nails, and silver on other 2 and a half.
As you can see, gold powder is really fine, and there was no difference in outcome. You get really cool chrome effect with regular and gel polish.
Silver powder was slightly coarser, and that was really visible over regular polish, even though it applied pretty good over gel polish. I am not sure if coarseness and bigger flakes of the powder are responsible for highly reflective surface of the silver powder. I included closer photo before I removed my protection around cuticles. You can see few lens flares there and brilliant shine around silver nails. Gold powder gave more subtle look, but beautiful regardless.
To finish this, and seal it, over gel polish I did gel top coat, while over regular I first applied one coat of Yellow Stopper, and when dried regular top coat.
I can't decide if I like silver or gold better, and I am glad I have both. I can't wait to try this powders over different colors.
Initially I did nail art over this, but it looked better in my head than here, so I might show you results with review of another item tomorrow.
