Born Pretty Store Thermal Shimmer Glitter Color Changing UV Gel Polish Review

In this post, I will be reviewing the Thermal Shimmer Glitter Color Changing UV Gel Nail Polish from BornPrettyStore. I saw these polishes not too long ago, and they caught my eye. I am really excited to try them out. Let's take a look at the bottle:

 

 I really like the gradient color on the bottle. I thought it made the bottle stand out more than the plain white bottles.

This polish is packed full of silver glitter. I can't wait to see what it looks like on, and see the color shift! I painted 2 thin coats of this polish on my nails, curing in between coats. After I cured the second coat, I finished it off with one coat of BornPrettyStore no-wipe top coat (found here). My hands are usually cold this time of year, so here is how it looks so far:

That blue is so pretty!

To see the color shift, I warmed my hands up in very warm water. Here is how it looks warm:

As my hands started to cool off, you could see the polish changing color. This is my favorite part of thermal polish:

I wanted to add just a little bit of a design to an accent nail. I chose an image from Love & Marriage 1 plate by UberChic Beauty. I used Mundo de Unas white for my stamping polish. After I stamped my design on and cleaned up around my cuticle, I sealed in the design with one thin coat of no wipe top coat. Here is the final look:

 

 

Once again, to get the color shift, I had to warm my hands up in warm water.

Overall, I am so glad I got to try this polish. It was everything I had hoped for, and then some. I can't wait to use it again. I am thinking about ordering more colors as well. The polish went on nice and smooth, it self-leveled very nicely, I didn't experience any chipping in the few days that I wore it, and I can't wait to wear it again! I have nothing but good things to say about this polish! You can find this polish on the BornPrettyStore website here. This polish comes in over 20 different colors. The color I have shown you is #5746. They also have tons of other great nail art supplies. Don't forget to use my coupon code for 10% off any regular priced items.

Born Pretty Store Holographic Chameleon Unicorn Mermaid Nail Powder Review

In this post, I will be reviewing the Holographic Chameleon Unicorn Mermaid Nail Powder from BornPrettyStore. This pigment looks so pretty on the website AND in person. Take a look:

 

It looks so pretty and sparkly. I can't wait to see what it can do!

To start off, I painted my index and pinky fingers with Essie Licorice, and my two middle fingers with OPI Alpine Snow. I topped them all off with a coat of Seche Vite. After about 30 minutes, I knew everything was nice and dry and it was time for the next step. One finger at a time, I put on one coat of BornPrettyStore's no-wipe top coat (found here) and cured it. Then I used the eyeshadow applicator that came with the powder and applied a small amount of powder to my nail, rubbing it in until I was happy with my coverage. I did two coats of no-wipe top coat, followed by powder, and sealed it in with one more thin coat of top coat. Here is what the powder looks like over black and white:

 

 

 I LOVE how the powder looks over white!

As with all the mermaid and unicorn powders I have, I love to see what they do over different colors. For this powder, I chose to use a pretty medium blue. I used three thin coats of Sinful Colors Why Not. I painted my ring finger with two coats of Essie Licorice. I have something special planned for this finger :). I topped them all off with one coat of Seche Vite. Here is how they look at this point:

After 30 minutes, i repeated the process above for all my nails except my ring finger. For that finger, I rubbed a thin coat of the powder over my clear jelly stamper head. Once the head was evenly covered with powder, I used my BornPrettyStore stamping polish in blue (it was a close match to Why Not), and stamping plate Love & Marriage 1 from UberChic Beauty. I painted my stamping polish on the image I chose, scraped the excess away, and using the stamper with the powder rubbed on the head, I picked up the image and stamped it on my ring finger. I waited a minute or two for the image to dry on my nail, I cleaned up the cuticle area, and then i used a dry Q-Tip to try to remove the powder that transferred onto the black where I didn't want it. Once cleaned up, I sealed my design in with one coat of no-wipe top coat. Here is my final look:

 

I love this! It is so pretty!

Overall, I am completely in love with this powder! You can do so much with it! It was easy to work with, and is absolutely beautiful. If you like holo, or if you like unicorn or mermaid powders (or if you have never tried them), this powder is highly recommended!! You can find this powder on the BornPrettyStore website here (I showed you color #1, there are 6 colors total). They also have tons of other great nail art supplies.
