New Neons

I finally got the new neons up! They include the following:

-green hex 0.094"
-blue hex 0.062"
-pink hex 0.040"
-pink hex 0.094"

The pink 0.040" is the same shade as the neon hearts that I currently have. The new large neon pink though is so fabulous! I haven't noticed any bleeding in it and so am planning on getting a variety of shapes and sizes in that tone!

This is the pretty, pretty neon blue.

 

Oh and the stars are coming in tomorrow! Yay!

And neon purple-I'm currently out of it, but am working on a list to reorder. It's a nice color and I'm hoping to order it in many different shapes and sizes. Hopefully you'll see all of the neon purples in early march-I'll keep you all posted :-).

Fairytale and other mixes

I put up a few new mixes...6 if memory serves me correctly. A couple have neons, and my favorite of all of them is a pretty one called fairytale. It's so cute and delicate, filled with sparkling iridescent glitters and beautiful pink hexes. I almost didn't put it in the shop because I love it so much and wanted to make a polish (maybe white?) but I figured hey I'll just do both.

Another one is called Prom Queen and it has some beautiful neons. This particular mix will bleed though (the purple hexes and neon pink hearts to be exact) so I would suggest using it in a polish that wouldn't suffer from a tint, like possibly a purple or blue.

The other new mixes can be found in the glitter mix section of the shop:

Neon Purple Glitter

I got in some neon purple glitter this week! It's not up in the shop yet as I'm seeing how it holds up in polish. I've had it in the suspension base I'll be carrying for a few days now. It's bleeding a bit, but it hasn't bled anymore than it did on the first day. It hasn't curled though so that's a plus. I'll make it available probably in another week or so if I don't see any curling for anyone who'd like to have it. So if you don't like bleeders this glitter won't work for you, but if you're able to use them to your advantage then it's definitely a pretty glitter.

I've also ordered some more neon samples from a new manufacturer, so I'll see how those work out, If they're fabulous I'll be ordering a lot to make available in the shop!

Happy New Year!

Hi gals and guys! I'm moving the blog over here to blogspot with the intentions of providing a lot more content in the coming year. You can expect to find a plethora of things on the blog in the coming months including polish ideas, diy crafts, contests and of course promotions from time to time. I'm hoping to give you all a chance to give input as to which new glitters to stock as well as to feature various polishes and their makers. So stop by from time to time :-).

Speaking of promotions the first one I will be running in this new year will last for the month of January (possibly longer-we'll see). I often get questions about ordering samples and so I'd like to give everyone the opportunity to get 1 set of free samples to try out some of the different glitters I carry, the  only thing I'll ask you to cover is the shipping costs. You'll be able to pick 3 different samples from any of the glitters (including mixes) that I carry in the shop and will recieve 1/2 tbsp of each of your choices. The shipping cost for those in the US will be $2 and the shipping costs for those outside the US will be $3.50. Simply send me a convo in my etsy shop: www.boroughbabesupply.etsy.com or email me at boroughbabeandbaby@gmail.com. Be sure to let me know which samples you'd like as well as to provide me with the email address you use for your paypal account so that I can send you an invoice.

and happy new year everyone! Many well wishes!
