My first review of bornprettystore.com

Okay, so a few weeks back, I was cruising along cafemom and came across a mom that had posted a ton of nail art designs. I commented on how much I loved her designs, and later that day, I was contacted by her asking if I would be interested in reviewing free items from bornprettystore.com. I checked out the website, and loved just about everything on there. So, I decided to try it out. She gave me the details of what I needed to do, and I sent her the email confirming the item I wanted to review. She told me since it was coming from China, it would take about 2-3 weeks to arrive. Great. I guess if I want awesome beauty and nail products at wholesale prices, there had to be a catch somewhere, right?

Flash forward to 3 weeks later... I check the mail and find a package from Hong Kong waiting for me. SQUEEE!!!

After unsuccessfully trying to rip open the package from excitement, my husband offered his knife to open it for me.  This is what was in the package:

For those of you who don't know what this is, it's a beautiful green magnetic nail polish. Magnetic nail polish comes with either a magnetic cap or wand (like the purple one in the picture) that creates a cool effect when you hold the magnet over the wet nail polish. 

First things first, start of with clean and dry nails. Apply two coats of the polish on your nail. 

While it's still wet, hold your wand (or magnetic cap) over the polish. Just hover it over your nail; don't touch the polish with it.

It takes all of five seconds to create the magnetic effect. I love it! This is what all of my nails look like:

Over all, I loved my experience with www.bornprettystore.com. If you like this nail polish, they also offer it in about 20 different shades. It's a much cheaper price than most other places I have seen. It only sells for $6.38, and anything from the site ships FREE WORLDWIDE. I will definitely be purchasing more items in the future. Anyone who would like an extra 5% off their purchase (and let's be honest... who doesn't?), you can use the special code AMANDAW21 until Dec 30, 2012.
