Rock Chick Love

Helloooo!

Last weekend, me and my sis did some hair dye shopping, and ran into a nail polish sale! I purchased these goodies:

They were half off! I needed some nail food, so I bought the Essie "nourish me". Sounds good. And Essie "blanc", good white polish is hard to find! Herome WIC "Sapporo", from the Mystic Japan collection was on my wish list for a while. And a backup L'Oreal Confetti and Max Factor "Fantasy Fire", you know, in case I run out (and those bottles are so ridiculously tiny, I'm already half-way my confetti!)

Anyways, my sister bought Essie "lovie dovie", a sweet as sugar pink polish, gorgeous. She immediately put it on her nails. She was wearing a rock chick outfit, so I decided to make her mani rock! I used some black rhinestones and black caviar and a dotting tool for this:

Hope you like it!

Lieutenant's Minions

Helloooooo!

The Lieutenant went home for a while, so I sent her off with some minions. She knows the minion banana song by heart. She is my favourite minion, so I gave her some of her own:

I used Catrice "Earnie and Birdy" as a base, and an Etos jeans blue polish for the pants. I used a striper and a dotting tool for the rest, following Cutepolish' tutorial.

LIEUTENANT, I MISS YOU!!!!

Swatch-It Sunday: Golden Rose Jolly Jewels 105

Hello pretties!

Today I have Golden Rose Jolly Jewels no. 105 for you. It is a lilac jelly with small purple hexes and large green hexes. It requires dabbing and placing and you will do good to get as much glitter on your nails in the first coat. But it dries really fast, so it is ok. First I will show you 2 coats alone:

Direct evening sunlight:

Shade:

Flash:

As you can see, the weather is finally gorgeous here! So lucky! I was ill these past days, but the sun got me through it. And finally, after sporting this mani for 4 days (which was not so bad ;) ), I felt well enough to do my nails again :D 

I have also tried out layering this polish, a while back. This is one coat over Essence "Very Berry":

Daylight with a hint of sun:

I was wearing a purple sweater, so I thought of Curly Polish's hand positions (where I first saw this) and I grabbed my sweater (though she grabs her sleeves, but mine were not long enough):

For some reason I might like this better! It seems a bit more neat.. Well, that is just easier, so I am ok with that! I wonder what it looks like over black and red and...

I bought it here.

Swatch: Catrice Bricky Mouse

Helloooo!

Since I missed last week's Swatch-It Sunday, I thought I'd make it up to you with one of Catrice's polishes from their new collection: Bricky Mouse. The name alone made it irresistible ;) 

As you can see, it is a brick-coloured polish, with little flecks of gold. This is one coat! I was impressed. And this is without top coat - see how shiny it is on its own!

Monochrome Patchwork Mani

Hey lovelies!

So yeah.. I was really digging this patchwork design and so was my family! So my other cousin also needed a patchwork mani :) I decided to go monochrome on her, and she decided it should be blue, to match her eyes :) This is it:

So what do you think? I love it.. Check out the summer patchwork and the neon patchwork if you haven't yet! I also explain how I did it in the first one :)

Another Nail Idea for a Job Interview

Hey beauties!

Today I had an assessment at a company. It was exhausting, but it went well. I will show you my mani:

This is just a tape mani with white polish, topped off with Essence Pro White Rosé, to brighten my nails, since they are very yellow.

I'm gonna get me some food now ;) No energy left for cooking! This is the mani I wore to my intake & workshop.
