Light blue in the winter

This is my light blue hello kitty hm polish topped of with white konad hearts :-) I also added some glitter from wet n' wild diamond sparkle! My absolute favourite :-D

I did better than usual with the Konad, and I think the secret is just to take your time, and wait 'til everything dries before konading :-)

Colorful flowers

In helsinki, I found these microbeeds in a crafts shop :-D

I used purple from rimmel, yellow from isadora and red from wet n wild. 

And konad!!! I love that pattern :-D and put the beeds in the flowers! 

They of course fell of pretty fast...

this is revlon 60 seconds ( I think...) with konad flowers and some wet n' wild glitter on top :-)

I'm starting to understand konad, and it is so much fun :-D

dark purple

i thought I would show you a mani I actually really like :-D (picture is enlargeable)

I used gosh fix base coat, zoya pinta, wet n wild sparkling diamonds, and white konad with plate nr M21 :-)

still wearing it! third day :-D

More sparkly nails!

This is what i ended up with after my light blue disaster on the thirteenth :-)

I needed cheering up, so I went for an unused sparkle from Gosh! Bright Passion.

I did not consider the dark jelly base in the polish, and put it on top of opi ate berries in the canaries.... Result is ok I guess, but I think this glitter would be great over a darker shade :-D

I did some konad on my ring finger from plate M21

Dior Day

Yesterday I put on one of my five dior polishes! (But the pictures are from today, and I obviously went to bed before it was dry... Another lesson learnt!)

It is red/purple and more shimmery than in the picture:

Pale Konad Purple

Todays archive color is purple. It is light and sheer. And I have three coats over a clear base. Some of the fingers are opaque, because the coats are thicker. The brand is Vera Valenti nr 11 and I guess it's portugese :-) I also use Konad plate nr M25 and white special polish.

It is more shimmery than in the picture, and I like it! I have a brown color in the same brand, and yay!! They are not just decoration colors :-D

Three down, many many to go.. :-p

Purple shimmer

I have tested some acrylic paint on my nails, but I'm really not good at it (yet) but I will practice and I will blog my results :-D

So I removed my unphotografed acrylic and tried out something purple. I bought a dark purple and a light purple sparkle (i thought) from depend. The dark one was great, and when I put the sparkly one on top I got a holographic result. I couldn't quite get the colors right on my photo...

It's more silvery in real life :-) I tried out some green butterflies on top... Didn't really work :-p

Minty green

Yesterday I made a minty manicure and I plan on keeping it for a few days :-) (Update: a nail broke and I chnged it...)

I used a normal green polish for the Konad

Glittery French

This is my second time trying a french manicure, so it is not very good, but I suppose it takes some training. 

I've tried to do a normal french mancure, and then added some green glitter. And a Butterfly stamp on the thumb. Green, of course! (still working on how to get these stamps sentered ;-) )

I found this video on how to do a french manicure very helpfull :-)

Oh, and here is a French video from Mayparis! I would love to try the first technique next time I do a french :-)
