Splitting and peeling nails: my rescue product

Hi lovelies!

I often read questions on the internet on how to cure or prevent splitting and peeling nails. I finally found something that works almost instantly! My Cinderella hand had been splitting and peeling forever and I had tried EVERYTHING! Eventually I tried Herôme "Nail Growth Explosion", in an effort to speed up the nail growth process. And to my surprise, the peeling stopped! Let's dive into that a bit more:

Lightning tape art on Herôme Sapporo + tutorial

Hello beauties!

This is what I did after I mattified Herôme WIC Sapporo, from which I showed you swatches yesterday. 

I taped it and used NYC "Full Metal Jacket" to create lightning! The tutorial for this:



That's it! Hope you like it. Share your recreations on our facebook page!

Herôme WIC Sapporo swatches & review

Hey lovelies! 

A week ago I picked up this pretty: Herôme World Inspired Colours "Sapporo", from the Mystic Japan collection. It is a very pretty periwinkle with a frosty shimmer.

It is opaque in 2 thin coats. The formula is a bit on the thick side, but it evens out smoothly. The shimmer is just gorgeous, yes, it is amazing. I needed to see what it looked like matte:

Still gorgeous, but I like it better shiny! I wanted to do some tape art with it. I will show you tomorrow :)

Party in Helsingborg

Hey beauties! 

I couldn't walk around for long with just one colour on my nails, haha, so I decided, if it's hot pink in Helsingborg, it's the place to be for a party, right? So what would that look like? So I did a simple dotticure to make the mani even more happy! The result:

Artificial light

Artificial light

Direct Sunlight

I used:

White - from Etos Long Lasting Polish

Dark Blue - From Miss Sporty Clubbing Colours 328

Red - Essence "Kiss on top of the Rock"

Yellow - Essence "Little Miss Sunrise"

Light Turquoise - Rimmel "Peppermint"

... and of course my sweet sweet dotting tool. 

Everytime I look down at my nails, I get this happy summer feeling! Whoohoooo, I can't wait for summer to arrive!

How about you guys?

Herome Prize Swatches

Hi all!

So sorry for not blogging, we've both been swamped these days... A while back, I was one of the three winners of a Valentine's Nail Art Contest held by Herome Cosmetics. I was beyond myself, hahaha, it was such an honour! I won two polishes from Herome, from their World Inspired Colours: "Helsingborg" from the Fancy Sweden collection, and "Perm" from the Stylish Russia collecion. 

Let me show you Perm first... It's a gorgeous gorgeous colour. I applied it on a friend's nails, after an afternoon of succesful shopping :D Lovely hidden sale items for cheap! It can't get any better than that.

Anyway, to accompany this feeling of shopping victory, we decided to try out my prizes :) Both polishes are pink. Perm is shimmery and sparkly and fab:

Artificial Light

 With Flash

Daylight

And that even without the multicoloured sparkle the camera wouldn't catch! So pretty!!

I used two coats of Perm and a topcoat. I'm happy with both the brush and the formula.

Helsingborg is a completely different kind of pink :) It's an in-your-face kind of pink creme, perfect for summer or just when you need happiness on your nails:

Both these pics were taken in artificial light. I used two coats here, but in principle you can get away with just one, it's really opaque! The brush was very nice and the formula applied easily.

I'm so happy with these polishes! They can be found in most Dutch drugstores and online as well.

Tomorrow I'll show the ultra-happy dotticure I did with Helsingborg.

Nightnight for now!
