Essence -Jacob's Protection (Breaking Dawn Collection)

Hi,

Happy New Year! Today I'll show you Jacob's Protection from Essence's Breaking Dawn Collection. (two coats in the picture)

I won this a while ago in a giveaway organised by Shannara from Nails and Stuff. She also sent me 

Alice had a vision, which is another beautiful shade and I'm eager to try it.

After having applied two coats of Jacob's Protection, I took my sponge and applied Avon 

-Arabian glow on the tips. Then, I stamped the stars from m14 Konad plate using Special White.

Finally, I applied the Konad -Special top coat. What do you think about my New Year's eve 

manicure? 

Pink and green water marble

Hi,

Today I'll show you the first water marble I'm wearing and that's because never before did I

 manage to do it. The idea came from the plain, white nails I was wearing the day before.

 As I heard that the colours blend together the best if applied on a white base, why 

not try marbling again? So I took a plastic glass with room-temperature water and 

starting combining the nail polishes. I have a short tutorial on this here, check it out.

This are the shades I used: Green With Envy and Aqua Fantasy from Avon, Funky/Fabulous 

from Claire's and #04 from Golden Rose. 

After the marbling was done I created some white and dark green dots to complete the design.

I finished with a clear top coat. What do you think?

Gold leopard manicure

Hi,

Toady I'll show you 

I applied two coats of Illamasqua -Scorn on all my nails except on the ring finger,

where I applied two coats of Matt Dull White form Born Pretty. Above it, I stamped

the design from m57 Konad plate using this Black Stamping Polish and filled in

the imprints with Avon -Gold lustre. I finished with a clear top coat.

What do you think? 

St. Patrick manicure - Water Marble

Hi,

Today I tried to make a four-leaf clover water marble manicure, but I only

managed to do it on false nails, not on mine. I thought that it might be because

they are too short; anyway - they were a total mess. Maybe you will try it too and

you will get a better result than me. Firstly, you should paint your nails white or a 

nude colour and then, in a disposable glass, I put alternatively several drops of 

Avon -Green with envy and Sinful Colors -Happy ending. Using a toothpick, I

created the four-leaf clover and then put the nail in the middle of the design.

 

At the end, I applied four green, heart-shaped rhinestones. I got them from a nail art store

called Born Pretty for $3.33 . I finished with a clear top coat. 

What do you think? Could you give me some tips if you have tried it and got a nice result?

Spring day manicure

Hi,

Today I'll show you a springy manicure I've done and also talk about the Black stamping 

nail polish from a nail art store called Born Pretty. I started with two coats of 

Avon -Aqua Fantasy and then, using the sponge, I applied Pure Ice  -French Kiss on 

the tips. Then I stamped the design from m78 Konad plate with the stamping polish I was 

talking about. The design imprints very well, the color is intense enough and it doesn't 

dry on the stamp before you apply it on the nail. It is in a 3ml bottle, and its price 

is $2.05, with free international shipping. I think it deserves a try if you ran out 

of Konad special polish, because the results are mainly the same. I finished my 

manicure by applying a clear top coat. What do you think?

Gold & black mani

Hi,

Today I'll show you a cute gold & black manicure.

I used Avon Gold lustre for the tips of the nails and then I stamped the image from

Konad m29 image plate. I applied some gold steel balls in the middle of the flowers.

I finished with a clear top coat.

What do you think?

Turquoise and gold leopard nails

Hi

I'll show you a new manicure inspired from Polish and Konad.

I painted my nails with 2 coats of Miss Sporty #60.

Then I made a gold stripe in the middle of the nail with Avon Gold lustre.

I stamped the little image from m57 image plate, and then

I applied some dark blue rhinestones.

Here's what I got:

What do you think?

Rose Quartz + Konad

Hi,

Here's another sweet nail polish from Avon, called Rose Quartz.

It's 3 coats of a light peach color with gold reflections.

I couldn't resist not to put on a coat of Matte Finisher from elf.

You can see how matte it is!

After I stamped a design from image plate m73.

Here's the final result.

I love my mani!
What do you think about it?

Hope you'll all have a nice day. Thanks for stepping by!

NOTD

Hi,

Today I'll show you another cute polish from Avon.

It's one coat of Peppermint Leaf from Avon. Just one coat! Imagine if I put two. Gorgeous!
Shiney and so opaque.

A perfect green.

The drytime also is short.

This is how it looks like (no topcoat over):

What do you think about it?

Are you a fan on green enamels?

NOTD: Green with envy

Hi girls!

The nail polish that I'll show you today is Green with envy from Avon.

It's an adorable dark green, 2 coats, no topcoat. So opaque:

It's sooooooooo shiney! I love it. The drytime is acceptable, too.

After I applied a top coat with green sparkly particles.

I really do love it, don't you?

Don't forget to enter my giveaway if you haven't yet!

We'll have a winner by the end of the next week, hurry up!

Hope you all had a nice day!

A two colored nail design and tutorial

Hi!

Today I'm going to show you a new design I made and how you can do this.

(not my nails in the following pictures)

First you have to paint your nails with a bright color.

I chose a lilac color (Luxe Lavander from Avon)

Wait ultil the base color is dry. Take a darker nail polish and paint half nail diagonal like

in the picture. The brick nail polish is no.51 from Kallos.

Now go to your Konad stamping kit. Use any tiny design. I used a flowery design from plate m26

Then take a black polish for nail art (or a regulary polish applied with a nail art brush)

and paint a thin line between the lighter and darker colors.

You should get something like this:

Wait about 10 minutes and apply the Konad top coat. If you don't have this, use a good top coat. You don't want your design to spoil.

So, voila! Here it is.

Hope you like it and if you gonna try this, please don't hesitate to show me!

Thanks for reading and have a nice Saturday evening!

Striped Pattern Nails

Hi!

Here's my new design with Konad plate m60.

I used Luxe Lavander as the base color (OMG, again?!). I just love this polish!

I planned to do this design for a long time ago, and here it is. I know it's something so simple, but the white lines looks gorgeous on that lilac color.

So here's what I got today. Hope you all have a great Wednesday!

Thanks for looking.

Manicure with dots & bows

Hi,
