Fauxnad and Mineral Basics swatches

I loved my yesterday's mani S-he 464 so much that I really did not want to change it tonight,
so I added some Hot Topic fauxnad on top. Image stamped in China Glaze IDK.

Sorry for the craptasic indoor lighting.


I love the skull music notes! I think this is how Death metal sheet music should look.






P.S. If anyone knows of where I could get the other Hot Topic fauxnad plate, Please email me. Somehow a year or so ago when I bought the set mine had 2 of the same plate. :( I really would love to have the other plate with the gun and blood spatter. Thank You tons!

I am working on a Review of Mineral Basics but time has been very little as of late.
I did have time to do swatches today and get sample package pics.


This is how my samples arrived. Very cute!


This is what I ordered. The samples are tiny 1/16 of a teaspoon which is enough to swatch and still have one use. But for the price of $1.50 it's much less product than I'm used to getting.


Magic wand- Shimmery Orange with yellow undertones
Passive-pixie- Peachy coral with lots of shimmer
Flower-fairy- Shimmery bubblegum pink
Water-myth- Shimmer dusty green a nice mossy shade
Dragonfly-wing- silvery green



magical-spell- Blue based shimmery purple
Hidden creatures- shimmer cornflower blue with subtle green sparks
Dragon flight- gunmetal with subtle sparks of copper and pink


Spellbind Cheek pop-  Shimmery Peach
Mesmerize Cheek pop- Light shimmery pink


Angel Eyes Illuminator- Pearl off white with slight yellow tone
Emerald fire- Emerald green shimmer
Storm- Blackend blue
Mulberry wine matte- Matte berry
Black matte- looks like plain black oxide

These were all swatch with no primer and the pictures came out very true to color.
My initial opinion is that they have a nice texture and spplication with very little fall out.
I will play with them tomorrow and do a look with some to give a better review.
You can check them out at mineralbasics.com

  3. Oh my... I LOVE the skull music notes!!!!! I would love to have these plates myself, but since I only found out about Konad within the last month (yeah, I'm out of the loop...LOL) I am sure I missed all this stuff when it was being sold. Booooo!! :)

    Jennifer- I just happend to spot mine in the clearance pile at HT. So it was total dumb luck! You just never know what you'll find or when.

  5. Wow, uhm, not to be rude but paying $1.50 for tiny samples like that... I wouldn't do it. For $1.75 you could get Fyrinnae samples, which are huge by comparison.

  7. Phyrra- Not in the least bit rude hun. That is part of why I wanted to do this review. I want to see if they are worth the higher cost. *cough* Mac *cough* overpriced *cough* excuse me I got a little money caught in my throat. :O
    I am a cheap bish as you know and so if a product is $$ I expect it to be very worth my hard earned money!

  10. Good looking fauxnoad. Damn HT for discontinuing these cool plates. That does seem like a lot for samples, they look pretty but they better be for that much, you know I'm cheap too.

  11. Love the fauxnad. I had the opportunity to get the Hot Topic fauxnad 50% off and I passed on it. I am still kicking myself for that decision. I wish Hot Topic would bring back the fauxnad.

    The mineral swatches look great. Such fun colors.

    Just to let you know, if you aren't getting my posts (and you blogroll isn't updating my blog) it's because I changed the url and something happened and it didn't change any of the links. The new url is http://naive-nails.blogspot.com/ :)

  14. Your nails are gorgeous! I'd love to ask if you use a treatment for your nails to keep them strong, long, and beautiful!
    The Mineral Basics Cheek Pops look amazing, I'm a sucker for glittery things. x

  15. Jess- No we are frugal! lol

    Deb- i know there were 2 more when I got mine and I passed them up. grrrr

    gildedangel- I got your new url fixed. TY!

    Pinkginger- Thank You! <3

    VampiressDoll- I just started using Sally Hansen Nail quencher and it seams to be helping with my cold weather peelies. Normaly I don't use anything special. I do give myself a hot oil manicure every other week and paraffin dip monthly and I moisturize like crazy. I never ever cut my cuticles, I only use a glass file, I always keep my nails polished. I also eat a lot of dairy and lean protein which may help with my nails but it also contributes to a huge butt! lol
