Look what I got:) huge amount of nail art supplies

Hello, dear readers and followers,

long time no hear or see from me:( I'm sorry, I really am, but my first year as a teacher really requires a lot of work and effort to be put into, to prepare all the needed material, powerpoints, etc. But enough about the work, let's get to the fun part, right;)

I while ago I was contacted by super friendly Jessica from the Born pretty store. A web site which carries various beauty and nail art products. I was given the option to choose among their products, and I chose the package of 100 fimo canes (which also included  2 spare rhinestone cases, a glue, as well as a great cutter for fimo canes (they're 10 in the package, so I suppose it really last long), love how you thin you can cut the canes!) and 3 x Nail Art Rhinestone Nail Art Lot Dotting pen W Glue (it comprises a set of dotting tools with 3 wheels of rhinestones in the shape of hearts, stars and the regular -circle ones, as well as 4 nail glues. I also got a bunch of orangewood sticks,  And also a piece of paper with transparent foil over it, there're some white spots on it, I don't know what it's for, but I suppose they're water decals, hmmm, have to figure it out:) The service is great, the package is delivered from Hong Kong, and it took it about 14 days to get to Slovenia.

This package is the biggest nail art supply I've ever got, can't wait to try everything out!

How about you? Which ones do you fancy the most? What do you think of the paper covered with foil? Could it be water decals? What are you personal experiences with nail art products? Which ones are a must have?

Thank you,dear readers and followers, have a nice and polished day:*
Let's look at the photos, right;)

Swap from Down Under with Michelle

Hey, dear readers and followers:)

Having a busy weekend, as I have??

Still not much time to do things I love, as for example polishing etc. My days consist of learning, cleaning, cooking, usual household chores that need to be done, but I'm still enjoying the weekend though my BF is away and has been working form Friday till tomorrow, and I'm home alone.

Here's what I got for you today, a SWAP! YAY! After writing a post on taking up a swap, Michelle or 'chelle from Cosmetic Cupcake responded and we soon arranged a swap, which included nail polish of course:) She sent me the brands that aren't available here in Europe. So I received 3 ulta3 polishes in Sweet violet (shimmery a bit frosty violet as the name implies:), Watermelon (sweet coral cream and a colour new to me, I have to admit I haven't owned any coral polish up till now), Hot spring (rich berry cream); 2 TBN polishes in Aubergine (gorgeous eggplant purple loaded with shimmer) and in Raspberries&cream (another lovely which really looks as though you would have crushed raspberries mixed with some cream); 3 BYS polishes whereas 2 are crack polishes (in black and purple!) and one is in Raspberry sorbet (another pretty, dark shimmery brownish red colour), and last but not least my first Glitter gal polish in Fuchsia (a holographic goodnes in bottle). The package also included 1 stamping fauxnad plate and some fimo sticks which I admired on the internet but never tried them out, thanks a bunch:) I just hope the swatches are coming soon, or at least that I have enough time to polish my nails in those gorgeous colours;)

Michelle also added 1 bottle of her favourite cuticle moisturizer Essie Apricot cuticle oil (gorgeous smell and I've have already tried this one out, it really adds extra moisture to the nails) and a tube of her favourite cream Lucas's papaw treatment which I'm saving up for sea holidays:)

Thank you so much Michelle, it was really so much fun doing a swap with you and I loved every single item you sent me! Please check out her blog, she is also having a giveaway at the moment, so hurry up:)
