Pink Friday- Breast Cancer Awareness Inspired Nails

Hi, 

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. All Fridays in the month are Pink Fridays. That inspired me to do a nail art dedicated to cause.  

First some facts about Breast Cancer

-Breast cancer is currently the top cancer in women worldwide

-89% of women diagnosed with breast cancer are still alive 5 years after their diagnosis, which is due to detection and treatment

-The most common breast cancer statistic you have probably heard is that “1 in 8 women will develop breast cancer in their lifetime.” What it should really read is “If everyone lived beyond the age of 70, 1 in 8 of those women would get or have had breast cancer.”

-1% of breast cancer cases worldwide are male.

-Small breasts do not have a lower or higher chance of getting breast cancer. However, a high breast density can.

-Several studies have found that breastfeeding lowers your risk.

-Those with the “breast cancer gene” won’t always get breast cancer.

-Antiperspirants do not cause breast cancer.

-Getting a mammogram won’t cause breast cancer. In fact, it’s currently the best way to detect breast cancer, being 90% accurate.

The pink ribbon is associated with individual generosity, faith in scientific progress, and a "can-do" attitude.

And finally here is what i created:

 polishes used: Barry M strawberry icecream and barry m white

stamping polish: konad white and beauty uk lollipop

stamping plate: bm321, 324

Review & NOTD: Splash Mani on BeautyUK Cosmetics Candy Collection

hey ya!!!

today i am presenting u Beautyuk cosmetics Candy Collection glam nails.. BeautyUK, is a British beauty brand which can be found in most Superdrug stores or on www.beautyukcosmetics.com. Here's what they say about the company:

"Born and bred in the UK (hence the name), beautyuk has grown from strength to strength since its humble beginnings five years ago. We are a family run business, which is quite nice really in a world full of big, scary, faceless corporations, and it means we can provide a much friendlier, more tailored service for our customers.

We have big plans to become the number one colour cosmetics brand in the market and we think our website makes our statement quite nicely - we hope you like it."

 i already own some of  polishes from their saloon professional range and quit pleased with their quality.. so whn i saw this collection on their fb page i couldnt resist d candy colors.. so i ordered and got the parcel in 2-3 days.. It came in a beautiful pink bubble envelope which is too pretty. Here's the collection:

from l-r  no.69 Jelly Bean, no.67 Bon Bon, no.70 Dolly Mixture, no.66 Gobstopper and no.65 Lollipop

Jelly Bean is a matte purple.. actually it isnt complet matte polish, it is just less shinier thn bon bon , dolly mixture and lollipop.

Dolly Mixture is a orange-red creme.

Bon Bon is a musturd yellow cream , its very streaky for d first coat compare to the other but get set with a little heavy 2nd coat. 

Gobstopper is again a matte finish which i doesnt found actual matte but i like the shade so no regrets :)

Lollipop is a bright pink..it looks lil brighter thn the pics..

i applied 2 coats of each polish. 

 i did a silver splash (chapaak :P)  mani on thm 

 Base color: beautyuk candy collection

Stamping polish: barry m silver foil

stamping plate: cheeky mega image plate

a close-up

 the following pic i took after 2 days 

these polishes had minimal chip. they are a bit streaky for first coat bt settles down for smoother finish on 2nd coat..

this polishes costs £1.99 per piece which is quite cheap right and they do ship international which is just awesome. you can also buy them from superdrug.

 hope u find it helpful.
