CMYK! My Favorite Things Nail Challenge Day 5 "Polka Dots"

Hi everyone!

Sorry my post is a little bit late during the week but I have been overwhelmed by painting projects and my hands never got clean. I'll make a post about those projects at the end of the week!

Today I'm showing my entry for Day 4 of My Favorite Things Nail Challenge, which theme was "polka dots"! I had the idea for this manicure for a looong time ago, at first I thought I was gonna submit it for Chalkboard Nails Dotting Tool Contest!

I was inspired by the pattern we see when we look close to a CMYK printed poster! And I thought this was the occasion to take a try to the newspaper technique ;) On to the pics:


To achieve this look, I applied two coats of OPI - Alpine Snow.
Then I took my colored polishes and I mixed every one with some Seche Restore. I used Rimmel - , OPI - Fly, and.
I grabbed my biggest dotting tool  and started dotting, making sure that the dots were overlaying each others.

For my accent nail, I applied two coats of OPI - Skull & Glossbones.
Then I cut a piece of newspaper, dipped it in medical alcohol and transfer the letters ;)


Did you liked this mani? It is so eye-catching!

My Favorite Thing Nail Art Challenge: "My Favorite Nail Polish"

Hi everyone!

Today is day 2 of the challenge, so I did something using my favorite nail polish: OPI - DS Extravagance!


I wanted to avoid overload so that I could really enjoy it, so I decided to go for a frame manicure!



I started with two coats of my favorite polish and I outlined it with Wet'n Wild - Black Crème and I added two little studs on my accent nail :)


I found this mani very classy, did you like it?

Shredded Purple (My Favorite Thing Nail Art Challenge: "My Favorite Color!")

Hi everyone! :)

Today is the first day of a challenge I decided to join! Our post today needed to be our favorite color! As some may know, I always preferred purple! Purple jeans, nail polish (of course), eye makeup, pencils...

For this nail art, I wanted to use several purple nail polishes, here is the result:


To achieve this design, I started with 3 or 4 coats of Estée Lauder - White Petal. (Yes thats a lot but I did not found out a way to apply it smooth enough for my taste...)

Then I painted some scotch tape using several purple nail polishes:
Stargazer - 235
OPI - DS Extravagance
Debby - 91
Milani - Jewel FX Lavender + OPI - Houston we have a purple
Orly - Charged Up
Miss Cop - Vernis Pop Fluo n°6
OPI - Planks a lot

When they were all dry, I cut them with scissors in square and triangle pieces. I only had so stick them on and my nails were ready for topcoat!


I like how this design looks kind of a shredded glitter nail polish but is very rich. I like that it is modren but quite delicate :)

Do you like it? Let me know if you try this design out! :)

a little bow...

Hello everyone!

I hope you are doing great! I'm sorry I didn't post yesterday but I went fishing the razor shell so I knew it would be a waste of time to do my nails before that! Hey, did I talk about summer activities? Yes summer finally arrived here! I put my bikini for the first time of the year but I burned my back :/

But sun also means holo polish for me! So I decided to put my favorite nail polish! Yes the one I would go back for if my house was on fire!


And this nail polish is.... OPI - DS Extravagance! Can you realize I spent  22$ on that ON SALE? Prices are pretty crazy here in Europe.

After I applied two coats of it, I decided to stamp a little bow to decorate my nails a little more. I love the fact that I can still appreciate the polish underneath. I used Konad special white and the Big plate A. The design can be found on the stamping plate m76 also.


My nails are pretty much too long right now but I'm lazy and I don't want to cut them because that means I would need to shape them. I never know if they are symmetrical or not when I file them :/

Anyway I hope you liked this mani and this gorgeous nail polish!

I hope you have sun too! <3

Pink gradient with black & white glitter

Hi everyone!

Here is a mani I made yesterday (when I had my camera with me it was already night so I wasn't able to take pics)!

When I discovered Lynnderella - Connect the Dots it was already hard to get, since it's the only nail polish that I wanted for her, I just dreamed that I could have it someday but I didn't wanted to get involved in any drama! And then, in January or February, a friend of mine was choosed in the Llarowe's lottery and she generously offered me to order it for me! (Thank you again!)
Nowadays, there is a lot of drama going on but everyone has his opinions about it, and I'm here to talk you about the polish, not the one who makes it! ;)


For this mani I put two coats of OPI - Sparrow me the Drama, then I shaded it into Rimmel - .
Then I applied one generous coat of Lynnderella - Connect the Dots.


I hope you like this mani! I feel like there's something wrong... Maybe it's too messy? What do you think?

xoxo
