Greetings, dear readers, and happy Monday! I hope you enjoyed the weekend and are ready for another week ahead! Now that Thanksgiving has come and gone and sickness seems to finally have left my house, it's back to business as usual. Until the craziness of the next holiday takes over, of course! Until then, let's jump back into the swing of things, shall we?
Today's blog post features more nail art supplies from Born Pretty Store. I was sent this jar of assorted rhinestones and caviar beads to review. I was torn trying to decide between several very organized designs using many of these stones, and in the end, I opted to embrace the randomness that was included within the jar. Rather than creating a specific look, I just picked up a few pieces and let them cluster together however they would on my nails. Check it out!
I opted to layer these rhinestones and caviar beads over Ellagee Polish Doorbuster 2017.
This set contains flat bottom rhinestone in assorted sizes and colours, silver caviar beads ranging from tiny to medium, and a variety of other round caviar beads in pearl and iridescent finishes.

I generally prefer some type of order or sense to my nail art designs, but I have to admit it was quite fun and freeing just to let it work itself out as I went! I just added a little extra top coat to my nails and pressed on the rhinestones and beads while it was still wet. I then sealed everything in with another layer of top coat to help keep them in place.
While this method worked well for me, I did start noticing the occasional bead fall off after a few days of wear. You can also apply these using a stronger nail glue for longevity, but I knew I'd be switching my nails up so the few days was enough wear time for me.
Unfortunately, the link for this specific product is no longer working, so I don't believe this exact item is still being stocked on the Born Pretty Store website. Have to fear, dear readers, they have many other rhinestone and bead options available, and you can choose the specific colour family, sizes, and styles you prefer.
While you are shopping at Born Pretty Store, you can save 10% off full-priced items with discount code QWL-91. While there, you can pick up numerous items and stock up for all your upcoming nail art needs!
Do you enjoy wearing rhinestones or caviar beads on your nails? Do you prefer precise designs or do you like to embrace the randomness? I'd love the hear from you!
Until next time, dear readers, have a wonderful day!

While these beads are a beautiful concept, and sound simple enough to use. I just don't see them being useful for a busy mom, who always has her hands in dish water, or constantly cleaning house.
ReplyDeleteUseful? Definitely not! But then I'm a busy mom with two young boys and still wore them through holiday cooking, cleanup, and a ridiculous number of loads of laundry.
DeleteThis is such a fun combination of rhinestones and microbeads!
ReplyDeleteWow..This looks gorgeous.. BornPretty Store has such amazing collection of nail art tools and other stuff.. You did a splendid job..

ReplyDeleteI love the beads on the polish look. My daughter would do something like this!
ReplyDeleteI admire it on you but it would drive me nuts to have them on my nails. I'd pick at them and ruin the manicure.
ReplyDeleteI love how they look all clustered together. I’m now inspired!!
ReplyDeleteYour nails are so pretty! I love the addition of the colourful stones on the glittery polish.
