Hello again!
Do you love a holo look? I know I do!
Today I swatched one of Born Pretty's holographic powder. This is the second one that I swatch from them but the first to put on my blog.
So I picked a silver powder. It is item number 33368 in #1.

I gotta tell you that for the price and the wait (it comes from overseas so you have to wait a bit longer to get) it is so worth it. Right now, it is on sale for $1.99 compared to other competitors. The price is awesome. It does require you to use a gel base (unless you find a way around that) in order for the powder to adhere. It's very holo, and thats just indoors. It went on easy and it did not smear/smudge after putting on top coat, also gel.

I started off with a black gel base. I cured it but did not remove the sticky layer on the base. The sticky layer is what helps the powder adhere to my color. The powder does come with a small makeup sponge in which I dipped to grab some of that holo goodness and then just started rubbing it on my nail. It doesn't take a lot of effort to get it onto the nail.

The first time that I used this powder, I was kind of scared that I would mess it up somehow. But I was so surprised to see how easy this was. It is kind of messy, so I did apply a latex barrier, Sexy Cuticles liquid nail tape by MDJ Creations (I will add the link at the bottom). Once my latex was dry then I started applying the powder.
All in all, I love Born Pretty's holographic powder. They are priced great and they have a big selection of powder types and colors. By this time you must have seen my IG video tutorial for this powder. But, if you haven't, I am giving away one of these! Why? Well, a little back story... So, Born Pretty had asked me if I was interested in reviewing some items, I said yes of course and I made my pick. I picked this powder without realizing that I already had one on the way from them.. oops! my bad! but your win... could be! So, I am sure I have posted the giveaway info by now. And because you were so kind to stop by my blog and read all this, you are entitled to an extra entry! But shhh... Don't tell anyone one else! If someone stops by my blog they will see that they can also get an additional entry. If they don't, well, that's a higher chance you get at winning. ;-) Just read the instructions on my giveaway post and do the same thing twice! See IG post for giveaway instructions.
Thank you for stopping by and see you on instagram! Don't forget to follow my IG page!
