Introducing the Sigma Dry 'N Shape!!!


Tired of waiting for your brushes to dry after washing them? Wait no more! Introducing the revolutionary Sigma Beauty Dry’n Shape system! The Dry’n Shape was designed to completely dry and shape your most dense brushes within 4 to 6 hours, guaranteed.

The Dry’n Shape provides the necessary pressure to bristles to quickly and efficiently remove water from every fibre. The fabric used to shape the bristles was specially engineered to accelerate water evaporation, resulting in a faster drying time for your brushes.

The Dry’n Shape is an easy, quick, and effective way to quickly dry and shape your makeup brushes. Follow these three easy steps for best results:

STEP 1:
Wash your brushes using a mild shampoo or brush cleanser.

STEP 2:
Gently press the bristles to remove any excess water. Place the clean, damp brushes into the Dry’n Shape using the smallest band the brush will fit into. Make sure that all bristles are firmly compressed.

STEP 3:
Wait 4 to 6 hours and your brushes will be completely dry and ready to use! In addition to being completely dry, the bristles will be reshaped to their original form. Your brushes will be perfect for your makeup application!

You now have a convenient option to wash and use your brushes as often as you’d like!





Best of all, the Sigma Dry 'N Shape is only $29!!!

Silver Holographic Gradient Nails!


Hello my lovelies!

Last night I attempted my first gradient nail mani ever!

And I'm actually quite please with how it turned out!

WOOO me!


I chose these colours as I figured if I screwed it up, it would be easier to get away with, rather then bright contrasting colours.

God I love me some holographic-y glittery goodness :D





These are literally the only 3 photos I managed to snap before my battery died on me :/

I love this whole gradient effect.. its like an illusion that makes my nails look longer! :)

I used:
  • Revlon 'Silver Dollar' as the first colour at the tip.
  • Nfu Oh #61 layered over Silver Dollar and carried down a little further.
  • Orly mini 'Shine on Crazy Diamond' (clear base with holographic glitter) on top with glitter focussed more on the tip.

Let me know what you think of this mani! Have you tried the gradient nail before?

Have a great day!

NOTD: Can YOU Dig It?


Hey guyyyys!

I recently got an order from cherry culture, which included this nail polish, Can You Dig It? - LA Girl Disco Brites.

It is a gorgeous lime green polish that is great on its own... but even more fantastic with a layer of crackle or shatter polish on top!



(I used China Glaze Black Mesh Crackle for the topcoat)

I freaking love this combo!! I feel like such a badass with this on haha.
And even my dad likes it! lol

I hope you're all having an awesome easter! I'm home with my family, loving the time I have with them :)

I hope the Easter Bunny treats you all well! Hehe :)
