Nail Polish Battle 2016: Reds and Berries Polishes

Essie - Fiji // Barry M - Rose Hip // Barry M - Sugar Plum // Champneys - Pink // Barry M - Pomegranate // Essie - Shall We Chalet // Essie - Fishnet Stockings // Essie - Bahama Mama // Nails Inc - Piccadilly Circus // A England - Let Me // OPI - Let Your Love Shine

While there were a few different options to chose in this section I ended up with a Barry M, Nails Inc and A England. The first two are very much berry toned cream polishes and the last a holographic.


The winner is Let Me In, a berry holographic. It is very almost a one coater, what I like is how this is definitely a berry tone rather than leaning too far to either pink or red.

Review: Born Pretty Store - Clean Up Brush (Flat UV Gel Brush)*

Review-Clean-Up-Brush-Nail-Art-Nails-Flat-Drawing-Paint-Tools-BornPrettyStore-Born-Pretty-Store-BPS

So the idea is that when you paint your nails you do a perfect job every time, however in the real world when you aren't a professional it doesn't always happen. Being realistic it never happens perfectly, which is where a clean up brush and acetone come in.

This brush is marketed as being a Flat UV Gel Brush, I don't work with Gels, however after seeing its shape and size I think this is a great clean up brush.

The bristles are flexible with a little firmness which is what you need to create a smooth cuticle line.

It is flattened making it slim so you can get the brush up against the nail edge to clean up the polish line without taking big chunks out of the nail polish.

How do I use it?
I dip the brush in to pure acetone and wipe off the excess, then I run the brush around the nail where I have painted them imperfectly. Then I wipe the brush on a tissue, then re-dip in to the acetone until I am happy with the look.
