The star of this post is Lotus, one of  Penélope Luz's creations. This lovely lady really has an eye for gorgeous glitter combinations, I think she makes super pretty and fun nail polishes. You should definitely visit her blog, you'll be amazed! Lotus is a mix of small white, pink and black glitter. I never thought a nail polish with black glitter could be so delicate. Oh, I love it so much.. especially over pink and white! The formula was nice, I'm wearing one coat on my ring finger nail.

Pastel Diagonal Gradient

Pastel Diagonal Gradient Nails with Flower Accent
Is it spring already? I'm sooo in the mood for pastel colours right now.. The base colour I'm wearing is Color Club - Secret Rendezvous (three coats). I wanted to combine this lilac beauty with another soft colour, so I used Eyeko - Vintage Polish to create a diagonal gradient. Lóve this combination! I made the flower accent with Konad plate m20 and Konad Special Nail Polish in White. I added a couple of dots with Cirque - Book of Shadows for a little bit of sparkle.

a england - Bridal Veil

If there's one nail polish 'colour' I totally adore, it's black. I can wear it all year round without getting bored. My favourite black is Camelot from a england's The Mythicals collection. So imagine the joy when I received another black nail polish from this wonderful brand. This is Bridal Veil from The Legend collection. It's a very pigmented black with a subtle prismatic shimmer. Love it! It applied like butter, this is two coats.

I made a little comparison for you with two other black polishes with prismatic shimmer. Out of these three I prefer Bridal Veil, 'cause it's super black and super pigmented.

The Legend collection is available now on the a england website.

Beware of the Cat

When my new Konad plates arrived I immediately fell in love with the cute little bird on plate m83. For this mani I applied two coats of Eyeko - Rain Polish and stamped not one, but two birds on my ring finger nail with Konad Special Nail Polish in Black. It looked cute, but I felt something was missing so I added a naughty cat face (for the cat and the line I used a small paint brush and black acrylic paint). Yes, now it's complete. I have a little story on my nails! :)

I'm not only excited about this mani, but also about my new camera! Of course I have to get used to it(s weight), but it takes much better pictures than my compact camera, without a doubt. I'm hooked. ♥ 

Thanks for watching!

Glitter Rain


The light grey-blue polish I'm wearing is Rain Polish from Eyeko. I decided it was a good moment to wear this one when I opened the curtains yesterday morning: grey and rainy weather, ugh! Although I can hate rain, I love Rain Polish, the colour looks so soft and serene. It has a subtle silver shimmer, best seen in the second picture on my middle finger nail (told you it was subtle, lol). For some real sparkle I applied two coats of Color Club - Sex Symbol on the ring finger nails. What a wonderful glitter polish, with an extra coat you'll have opaque silver glitter nails. But I have to say that I really like it this way, with the base colour peaking through...

Thanks for watching!
