Review of new Rainbow Connection Crystal Stamper

Image
Hello all my lovely nail friends, I am back...I am still struggling with my health and off work but I'm trying to get myself back and with that trying to find my nail passion again so I thought blogging again would be a good place to start. I have also made some changes to my Facebook page as I'm still not working it is my swatch and review page at present, I am also attempting short video tutorials and will hopefully be venturing into YouTube soon!!! So today's post is a review of the new 2 in 1 Crystal Embellished stamper the lovely Annette from Rainbow Connection sent me.

Presenting Picture Polish Alice

Hi Everyone, I have been planning this post for a while now and I wanted to make sure it was perfect and I'm finally happy with what I'm posting today. Several months ago my lovely friend Annette from Rainbow Connection let myself and the Polished Prince Karl into a little secret - she was collaborating with Aussie Indie brand Picture Polish for her own polish. Well I cannot tell you how happy and excited Karl and I were. We were even more excited when we got a sneak peek of the shade a week or so later and OMG she could have designed it for me - it was the ultimate Helen polish!! Well Karl and I somehow managed to keep the most exciting secret until the release and 2 weeks ago Alice was finally revealed and launched to the polish community. Annette's inspiration for this polish was the wonderful Alice in Wonderland and I really think the colour has been captured perfectly. This really is the most vibrant blue with little silver flakies and it is a perfect match...
