Life Is Peachy with Hean City Fashion #178

Hello babes :-D


Wow, I can't believe it's Friday already! What a crazy busy week. But GOOD busy! :-D Yay!


Today I want to show you a stunning polish that is currently on special at Glamore Cosmetics. It's a stunning coral-like peachy orange from Hean's City Fashion range, #178.


Pictured below is a set of natural tips, with an acrylic overlay. We then added two coats of Hean's City Fashion #178, with topcoat.

I love the formula of this polish. It applies very smoothly, and is beautifully opaque in just two coats. The consistency is absolutely perfect, and it has a stunning gloss finish when dry.


Like I've mentioned, the entire Hean City Fashion collection is on sale at the moment, for only R60 per 12ml bottle. Why? Well... I'm terribly sorry to break your hearts, but this collection is being discontinued by Hean HQ in Poland. *Insert hysterical sobs* So you better hurry over there and get your hands on some of these babies. Whether it being your first, or buying backups, you NEED to do it - NOW!


I'm sure Hean will continue to impress us with the new collection. I'm VERY excited to see what they come up with. Whatever it is, I know it will be nothing but awesomeness.


Glamore Cosmetics have a wide variety of high quality, affordable cosmetics ranging from skincare, to nailcare to makeup. Everything a girl's heart desires.

NEON I Love Hean Nail Art

Good morning lovely ladies :-)

How are you all doing today? Did you have a good week? YAY for Friday! :-D I hope you all have something to look forward to this weekend, even if it's just to chillax and take it easy. :-)

Today I want to show you different nail art looks I created with Hean's "Neon I love Hean" collection. I've already showed you swatches (over here and over here), but here's a picture of this amazing collection again - Just because I'm obsessed with it. You're welcome. ;-)

Now, let's look at some nail art. :-)

First I did this spongy something thingy mathingthing, using orange, yellow, pink and coral.

Yeah... I hated it. I then added a matt topcoat, and felt meh. Still didn't love it, but didn't hate it either. So I decided to try something else. :-)

Then, I tried a stamping mani. I stamped with silver Born Pretty polish over Neon I love Hean #893. I was having one of those days where nothing worked. Or I wasn't happy with any of the results. You know how some manicures look a bit unfinished, but the moment you add a matt topcoat, it's something completely different? Well, that was the case with this one. :-)

I like how feminine and delicate this is. The colour is just soooo pretty. This is also the first mani I did using my mani mat from NailCandi. Oh my. That mat, though!!!! A dream come true! I messed it up a bit, but like they say - practice makes perfect. :)

Next up.. Hahaha. Um. I don't really know what to call this... Cute fluffy monster bally thingies? :-D LOL. You come up with a name, and let me know in the comments section below. ;-)

I started with a coat of Revlon Color Stay White. After I let it dry completely, I used a dotting tool to make the bigger dots. While it was still wet, I used a fine detail brush to do the hairy/fluffy bits. I then used two smaller dotting tools to do their eyes.. Note the scary big pupil dude on my ring finer. Hahahaha. I mistakenly took the wrong dotting tool for his eyes. I like him, though. He's unique. ;-)

Then I felt I just HAD to try another reverse decal stamping mani on my NailCandi mani mat.

I used black stamping polish to stamp the outlines, then I used all the colours in the Neon I love Hean collection to colour it in. I then added a coat of white to make the colours pop. After it dried completely, I peeled it off, and applied it to my nails with Revlon white nail polish.
Now that I look at it again, I wish I mattified this one too. Hahahaha. When in doubt, ADD THE MATT!! ;-)

Products used:
I love Hean Nail Polish - Glamore Cosmetics. You can also find them on Facebook, Twitter and InstaGram
NailCandi mani mat - NailCandi. NailCandi can also be found on Facebook, Twitter and InstaGram.

PS: This is not in the blog, and I don't own it, but I thought it HAD to get a special mention - Have you seen the China Glaze spray on nail polish JUST landed in South Africa yesterday?! YASSS!!! You can buy yours from NailCandi at R150 per can. They're a tad bit pricey for me personally at this very moment (yes, I overspent on nail goodies again over the last month or two), so I haven't ordered any yet. But if you have, or you're going to, PLEASE let me know how it works? I'd love to try it some time.


Thanks so much for stopping by and reading. :)

Stay Sassy.

Neon I Love Hean swatches

Hello babes :)

Today I want to show you the rest of the NEON "I love Hean" nail polish collection. I decided to split today's post in two. I have another amazing Hean collection to show you, and OCD me doesn't like doing two different collections in one week, so decided to post the Neon swatches today, loads of awesome Neon nail art on Wednesday, the winner of our amazing Looking Good LCN hamper on Friday, and the new collection starting from next week. EXCITEDMENT!!!! :-D

So, without further delay, here are the last 3 babies of the NEON collection.

First up, a bright sunny yellow... #891

Next we have #893, another stunning coral, slightly lighter than #894 we looked at last week.

And lastly, this amazing bright orange - #892

How amazing? Still not convinced you need them? Here, have another look at all of them together...

Convinced? YASSS! You can buy your own piece of neon perfection at Glamore Cosmetics. Please hurry, though, as they're selling out fast, and last time I checked, they only had 1 of each colour left. Rumor has it they MIGHT import this collection one LAST time, but we're not too sure yet, as it's a limited edition at Hean HQ in Poland aswell... Panic!!! HURRRRRRRYYYYYY!!!

Thanks so much for stopping by and reading. :) I'm sure we're all equally as excited about Wednesday's post, as it will be the last secret word of our competition phrase, and the GRAND FINALE for the Neon I love Hean collection. Whooo!! Stay warm, babes.

Lots of love, and stay sassy!

Neon Water Marble

Hello Nail Addicts :-)

And HELLOOOOO WINTER! Brrrr. My fingers are actually not coping with the typing of this post. Hahahaha. Who left the freakin' fridge open??? Eeeeek! I hope you're all staying warm!

To beat the winter cold, I have an AWESOME collection to share with you this week! :-D I'm beyond excited! I started hyperventilating when I saw Glamore Cosmetics are bringing the "I love Hean" NEON collection to South Africa. It's seriously stunning, trust me.

I was a bit nervous about this collection at first. Most neon polishes I've used before take at least 3 to 4 coats to be fully opaque. We don't like four coaters. :-( Four coaters suck! BUT... This is Hean. And Hean ROCKS! :-D Opaque in just 2 easy coats, a streak free application, and stunning finish! Yes please, Hean... Yes, please. And THANK YOU!!

Let's look at some pictures, coz that's why you're all here, right? ;-) First up, two water marble mani's I did, using this happy collection.

As you can see, these babies are perfect for water marbling. I haven't done water marble in over a year, so I was very out of practice. I forgot how much I love the technique, so I can predict that you will see a lot more water marble mani's on my blog in the near future. ;-) I haven't tried stamping with them yet, but stay tuned to see the results. :) I think they might amaze.

I'll also share 3 swatches... First up #895, a juicy bright pink. I'm smitten!

I can't even begin to tell you how much I love this polish. It was almost perfect in just one coat (I know... Huh? But it's neon? I KNOW - cray cray), so this will be the one I'll try stamping with first. Very excited!

Next up, #894 - The bright coral that had everyone swooning. True love!

Can't deal! Too beautiful.

Last, but DEFINITELY not least..... #891 is a bright neon green.

I'm blown away. I normally don't like green nail polish, but I can tell you with absolutely no doubt in my mind that I'll be wearing this baby over and over and over again. How stunning, right?

I know some people believe neon colours to be more summery colours, but hey... WHO CARES? I love colour. My hair has been pink, purple, blue, turoise, blue again, and now blonde, turquoise and purple again. Yes, I LOVE colour! Hahaha. So screw you, boring winter nude wearers. WE LOVE THIS COLLECTION, AND WE WILL WEAR IT. ALL. WINTER. LONG! Ha! Just to add a little brightness, sunshine and happiness to the cold winter months. :) Yes, please. I mean, why NOT??
