Glitter Gradient with Shimmer Polish - Gerry & Caroline

For this mani I used two spectacular nail polishes (three if I count in the base colour). I was wearing Indigo from Barry M for two days and decided it was the perfect base for Shimmer Polish - Gerry, a dark violet glitter polish with blue glitter and so much more. A stunner for sure! I applied two easy coats. I wanted to try a glitter gradient, so I also used Shimmer Polish - Caroline (grape purple glitter) just on the tips of my nails. The sparkle is out of this world, so pretty! You have to believe me if I say that the gradient is more visible in real life (purple is not the easiest colour to photograph). I needed two generous layers of top coat for smooth and glossy nails. 

These Shimmer Polish shades are hot, aren't they? :L This brand is available at Cindy's Etsy store.

Cirque - Cape Liz

Phew, I'm glad I'm feeling well enough to blog again! I've had an awful throat infection and felt miserable the past week. Luckily I took some pictures of my polished nails before I got sick. This delicate, greyish blue shade is Cape Liz from Cirque. The shimmer in this one is really pretty! Cape Liz has a somewhat uneven consistency, I needed three coats for a satisfying result. I would love to wear this colour with silver stamping some time!

Cape Liz is part of Cirque's Objet d'Art collection and is available on the Cirque website.

Thanks for watching and enjoy your weekend! :)

Beetle Inspired Nails

Yes, today's mani is inspired by beetles! First I applied two coats of Orly - Enchanted Forest. I let it dry completely before I added a piece of striping tape in the middle of the nail. Then I carefully brushed two strokes of Ludurana - Admirável on both sides of the nail. I removed the tape, added a layer of top coat and stared at my nails for the rest of the day. ^_^

I also took some underwater shots (learnt this from Goose!). Multichromes look SO good underwater. All those colours. In one polish. I couldn't believe my eyes!

This spectacular multichrome from Ludurana was a gift from Penélope, one of my lovely readers. She sent me an awesome package with Brazilian must-have nail polishes and a great selection of her own handmade glitter polishes. Thanks again dear! You are so generous and sweet. ♥

Cirque - Galinda

I updated Dorian Gray with Galinda from the brand Cirque. Galinda has a clear base with small and medium pearly white glitter and tiny sparkly prismatic particles. So lovely! The formula of Galinda was great, I applied two coats over Dorian Gray. 

Later I added a layer of matte top coat, because well.. a mattified glitter mani never disappoints! My nails look kinda frosted. Cool. :)

Galinda is part of Cirque's newest collection called Objet d'Art and is available on the Cirque website.

a england - She Walks in Beauty

Today I'm showing you a england - She Walks in Beauty, one of Adina's new stunning creations. An unusual combination of greenish golden shimmer and pink glitter. I could've applied it over the entire nail, but you know how much I love to play with nail polish! So I started with applying Models Own - Grace Green (two coats); then I dabbed She Walks in Beauty on the nail tips and finished with a layer of top coat. Man, I lóve this combination!

She Walks in Beauty is part of the Heavenly Quotes collection. This collection is available on the a england website.
