Headboard and NOTD: Nubar Conserve

Hi guys!
The headboard is DONE! YAY!
It's a pretty basic padded headboard in black faux leather, was going with fabric first but there's just gonna get a bunch of dust stuck in it, and I realised wouldn't be able to take the cover off to wash as it's attached with staples on the backside of the wooden frame. The reason I decided to build my own was cause they are insanely expensive to buy! Atleast over here they are, no matter where I looked they were far over my budget. Making it myself cut the cost down to 1/8th of the store prices. Totally worth the extra time, it was fun too!
This is how it turned out:

Going for the hotel look in my bedroom, lol

When the headboard was done I could paint my nails!
I went with Nubar Conserve, which is a really pretty green shimmer with a tiny hint of blue. I was a little dissapointed though as it looks more blue toned and kind of teal'ish in the bottle, but it's still a gorgeous shade of green!


See how it looks more blue in the bottle than on the nail? It's even more apparent in real life.

This was 2 coats, and I had no application problems what so ever. I really like Nubar polishes, they have a good formula and goes on smoothly. Great brush size which makes them easy to control. The only thing I don't like is the bottlecaps, they're not that comfortable to hold, had hoped they would have a rubber coating like Orly does, and they are slightly too light. I think the brush would be even easier to control if the cap had a little more weight.

Thats all for now! Thanks for reading!

NOTD: Nubar Greener

Todays NOTD is one of the new polishes of course! I bring you Nubar Greener:


It's a really gorgeous green, more shimmery and warmer in real life. Too bad the sun wasn't out so I could capture all the pretty shimmer. You'll just have to imagine it being there!
Application was a breeze, great formula and coverage, this is 2 coats. Greener is the first Nubar I ever used and I'm definitely buying more!

Thanks for reading and happy thanksgiving to everyone who celebrates that!
