Of course what follows a birthday mani is Birthday haul!
However this was an unplanned haul..somethings had been ordered waaay back in Jan. Some in Feb, some March and soo on. One package from Llarowe got lost on its way to India (I blame customs..someone somewhere is enjoying holo polishes without knowing their importance!!!), and Leah generously agreed to replace that order which I promptly sent to a cousin visiting US.
As luck had it, my red angel plates got delayed and I had to file a complaint with USPS coz they couldnt locate where my parcel went x_x
The OB-QA plates arrived without any misery (I have a few extra sets if anyone within India wants to buy). And my cousin got me Maybelline's eye tattoo in Pomegranate Punk!!!
And all this arrived just in time for my birthday!!! :D
Have fun ogling! swatches to follow soon.
Hi Kejal, I would be interested in getting my hands on the stamping plates. Could you tell me how to contact you? My id is emeraldcopper@gmail.com. Thanks :)

ReplyDeletewhat a lovely haul kejal .... am not at all into mani ( i learnt this word from you only ) but i love reading your post and your pics makes me crazyyyy .. hahhaha i have very short nails but after seeing your pics the other day i painted them with Bourjois nail paint in neon pink... they are not looking that great but i am sure after seeing your post i will try to maintain my nails :D :D ...
ReplyDeletei can relate to your post somehow ... never felt with any foreign blogs for some reasons .. XOXO :d
will wait for your reviews ..
i have a request for you -
can you post one comparative post for all the nail paints avlb. in India and are worth investing in for mani. ....
thank you so much in advance D:
Oh Rashmi!!! Ur comments always make me smile/laugh without fail.
DeleteU start by doing very small or sober nail art..then u'll get into it. try doing polka dots or colourful french tips first.
Usually I m too lazy to do tutorials..but I'd like to do for u.
Tell me what you want me to do..I dont have all the nail polish available in India. Gimme a few brands.. and Q: what do u mean worth investing for mani? you mean for stamping?? or just any type of nail art?
when somebody says "rash you are too funny / or you make me laugh /smile " ahhhhhh i feel soooooo happy :D :D ... i only return what i get :D :D
Deletethank you so much kejal for the tut. in advance ...
right now toh i am actually zero , but i do want to try out mani with some basic things ..
i have bourjois , colorbar , colorma , revlon and some very basic nail paints , so i wanted to know , are they good enough or do i need some special nail paints ? like extra thin or thick ?? like i have seen the texture and finish also differs ... so shall i buy new ones or the old ones will do ?? i have some coloroma matte ones ( if they are called matte ?? )
when and how you started your journey ? i would love to know that and how you progressed to this kind of mani ??
am eagerly waiting for your tut dear :D
cute haul Kejal..enjoy !!
ReplyDeletethanks preethi!! :)
DeleteAwesome haul.. Must say birthday presents actually ;)
ReplyDeleteKej, have a doubt, can we use normal nail polish for stamping????
Never tried stamping till date, have ordered a from UT!!!!
hey Amrin.. Nice blog u got.
DeleteMost polishes don work as stamping..they r either too runny or too transparent. Usually one coat polishes work well.
Hey cool! do show me ur UT haul :)
Sure, I will :)
DeleteSo many pretty things :)
ReplyDeleteSigh! I love bday hauls... I wish I had my bday every month of d year!!
ReplyDeleteUh-mazing haul! I'm so tempted to snag some stamping plates and try out some nail art, do I need some special kind of thicker polish for stamping or will regular polishes work?
ReplyDeletehehe! u shud try some. Wht tuts u want me to do??
Deletelovely haul kejal....i bought stamping kit from buyincoins but unable to do it maybe problem is with pads...
