Born Pretty Store Review



I got these things as a late Christmas gift from my brother, and I thought I'd share our experience with this Chinese store. Born Pretty is a China-based online store with beauty accessories (and some other things) that has free world wide shipping and accepts pay pal. They have tons of reasonably-priced cute things, so I was really happy when my brother got me some of the things I liked as a gift. The shipping took a bit long, but it was around Christmas, so it's normal I guess. 
I forgot to take a picture of the packaging, but everything was wrapped really safely, in bubble wrap and an envelope. As you can see, the rings were even put inside a small plastic jar. I'll review the rings and hair barrette, I'll write about the stamping plates and stamper later as I haven't tried them yet.



The barrette looks slightly worse than the stock picture, but the quality is decent and it looks pretty cute when worn. It holds really well too. I'd give it 4.5/5.


They have the most adorable rings ever. However, be careful with the sizes. No. 1 is kinda big, no. 2 is the perfect size and is adjustable, but no. 3 is really small, I can't put it on my ring finger at all (well I guess I could, but I'd have to wear it until I'd die). But I think I can just cut it with pliers, smooth the ends and wear it afterwards. But if you buy rings, you gotta expect them to come in various sizes. But the quality is wonderful.


You get some credit for writing reviews, I haven't tried it yet, but I'd believe it, sasa has the same thing and they already offered me a discount after I wrote a review.


In general, I can totally recommend this store, the quality:price ratio seems to be really good (haven't tried the plates yet, but they look well made too) and pay pal makes it safe to order. 

Yours truly
Vita
