China Glaze - LOL

This purple prismatic polish from China Glaze was the perfect choice for today. I was in a rush, so I slapped on two easy coats of LOL (no base/top coat) and quickly took a picture before I left home. Indoors it may look kinda boring, but outside in the sun? Absolutely breathtaking. 

Thanks for watching!

Chunked Shawn

Hmm, I think my nails never looked this weird. Two coats of Zoya - Shawn, one coat of Kleancolor - Chunky Holo Black and a layer of matte top coat (I'm loving the matte texture these days!). I kinda like this mani in all its weirdness.. Tell me, what do you think?

Thanks for watching, enjoy the rest of your weekend!

Black & Gold

There are many ways to spice up black nails; this time I decided to add some stamping. I used China Glaze - 2030 and a floral design from Konad plate M73. I wondered how it would look matte, so I also applied one coat of Essence's matte top coat. I like this mani so much! The matte finish makes it look so, uhm.. interesting? ;)

a england - Camelot

I've been on a quest for the perfect black nail polish for quite some time now, but that quest is over. Meet Camelot from a england. Camelot is blacker than black with a glossy finish, perfectly opaque in two coats and it applies like butter. Just perfect. As a teenager I went through a black nail polish phase, well.. Camelot easily pushed me into that phase again. Black nails rock! 8)
Did you know Adina (the owner and creator of the brand a england) offers free worldwide shipping on all orders from now on? That's really great news, 'cause everyone should have the chance to try (one of) these wonderful nail polishes.

Kleancolor - Bite Me

Eat your heart out, Ruby Pumps! This is one coat of Kleancolor - Bite Me. Yes, you read that right, one coat. Can you believe how pigmented this glittery red is? I really hope two layers of base coat will prevent my nails from staining. :o The formula of Bite Me was a bit thick, but manageable. An amazing red, so sparkly... love it!

That's it for today, thanks for watching!

Catrice - Pool Party At Night & BM-224

Today everything seemed to go wrong. Right after my nails were done a wandering rhinestone managed to stick to the wet layer of top coat and I couldn't get it off without ruining half the nail; of course my camera battery died and it started to rain like crazy. But after redoing the ruined nail, the battery was half charged ánd the sun was shining. Happy end. :)

I'm so glad I fixed that one nail instead of removing everything, 'cause I love how this looks! I applied two coats of Catrice - Pool Party At Night and stamped with Konad Special Polish in White and a pattern from Bundle Monster plate BM-224. I also added a couple of yellow rhinestones and a layer of top coat.

Thanks for watching!

Sultry Blue

I was in the mood for blue so I dug out this gorgeous blue creme from China Glaze, Bermuda Breakaway. I also wanted to use a glitter polish, but without covering the whole nail. You know how much I love sparkly tips, well, this time I wanted the sparkles at the base of the nail. The gold glitter I used is Sultry Diva from Color Club. I'm a fan, what a nice glitter polish and combined with this blue? Love. Don't get me started on the clean up though. All those glitters around the cuticle.. they drove me nuts! Ah well, it was definitely worth the extra effort. ^_^
