Shimmer And Flakies

Hello sweeties ♥

Today I have a great combo to show you! But before I wanted to talk about the black I used for my base color.
Two days ago I asked my mom to give me money to buy a new black polish, I'm used to Revlon's Black Lingerie, but I have used Colorama and Impala's blacks as well, and also the black matte from Risquè, but what I didn't know was that Risquè also had a creamy black. I haven't seen Impala's or Colorama's black for a while, and my mom found the one from Risquè.
I happily applied it, I started with one thin coat, thinking I would need a second one, SILLY ME! That thin coat I first used was all I needed. I didn't even need a top coat, cause it shines so much on it's own!!!
Now to my combo.
I layered Pure Ice Heartbreaker, which looked incredible, and then I layered Hits Valsa over it.
I'm not using top coat, I'm almost out of Seche, and I'm not using mine until I get a new one. What you see is all polish,. no top coat to make it shinier.
BTW my index finger nail broke, hence the three fingers on the picture, not four.






Looks quite incredible, right?
Have a lovely day.
Love,

Chanel Mimosa and Flakies

Hello my loves ♥

Today's mani is quite cute. I used Chanel Mimosa, a gorgeous shimmery yellow, and then layered Nubar 2010 over it, and I decided to add matte top coat, and it looked incredible!
The flakies on Nubar 2010 are mostly orange, but over yellow it turned quite yellow, which just made me fall even harder for this mani.






I hope you all had a greta day.
Love,

Blue Gradient And Glitter

Hello ♥

Today I have an AWESOME manicure to show you guys. I've done a lot of gradients, but they never tunr out as well as I expect, but not this one. I decided to google for gradient tutorials, and I found a great one on youtube, here's the link.
It was SO useful, I'm very happy with the way it turned out. I did a big mess, as usual, but I got a great result.
I used Illamasqua Caress, Illamasqua Noble and Kiko 385.
Looking at my nails I thought WOW, did I really do this?! But looking at the pictures, I wasn't so happy. The pictures showed the bubbles from the topcoat, and the imperfections, but just looking at it you couldn't tell. So I decided to layer a good glitter to hide those nasty bubbles and imperfections, and it worked.
The glitter I used is Adriane Galisteu Me Ama.


Can you see how well the colors blended together?




I'm in love, that's for sure.
Love,

Red Hot Chilli Peppers Nails

Hello my dears ♥♥

Today I have a RHCP mani. Not perfect, but I love it :D
I used Finger Paints Curator's Crimson and Zoya Storm.
But before a picture of Nahla, she's looking all beautiful in this picture with her little flower on her forehead. I took her to the pet shop to get a shower cause she's been having some allergies and I had to buy a shampoo for that, and she had to have it on for 10 minutes, since showers with me haven't exactly been working I decided to take her to professionals, didn't go so well either, but better, they actually know how to handle it.

she looks adorable, right? ♥

Now to my nails.






Love,

Shinny Red and Black Stamp

Hello there ♥

Here's the thing, I've been posting once a week. Nahla really does keep me busy, and last week I had exams, in which I was great, btw. So to make it up to you guys, I've been wanting to do something other than my usual plain color posts.
But before a picture of Nahla, who gained 3 kilos in a month! Shes growing SO fast ♥

She likes to lay down, and sleep like that lol

Now to my nails, I used L'Apogée Metal Cromo as my base, and Fantasy Makers Black Pearl to stamp.
The stamping plate I used is KandNail CK-04, provided to me by Born Pretty Store.
Here's the link for the stamping plate I used.
I love the plate, the sizes are great, and fits my nails perfectly. Plus the designs are so cute. I had to problem stamping on my nails.
BPS also provided me with a discount code:

Black and Pink Striping Tape Mani

Hello sweeties ♥

I'm so sorry for being AWOL, but my sweet Nahla is taking a LOT of my time and energy.
I haven't had the time to do a lot of manis lately, or anything different, so when Nahla decided to sleep for a long time the other day I took advantage of that and did something fun that I've been wanting to try for a while now.
But before a picture of Nahla, who has been growing VERY fast, which my mom is freaking out about, cause she thinks she'll get too big, but she won't. My great dane grew very slowly, while Nahla is growing fast and loosing her baby face very fast as well.


Now to the mani, I used Zoya Storm and Blaze. Two coats of Blaze, and the one generous coat of Storm.




 





Very awesome right? Super simple, but quite pretty :D
Love,
