Music to my ears KOTD m73 + matte holo

Hello, dear readers and followers:)

A new week ahead and a new updated manicure, too. Over Glitter Gal Fuchsia I used China glaze Harmony and Konad image plate m73. In the end I mattified the whole manicure with China glaze Matte magic (last pic). However, I think I like the glossy one better.

How about you? Which mani do you prefer?

Thank you, dear readers and followers, have a nice and polished start of the week:*

Never enough HOLO, how about a pink Glitter gal

Hello, dear readers and followers:)

The sun is shining and it's a beautiful day, so let's see some nail polish goodness in the sun right? I received this polish in my swap with Michelle from Cosmetic Cupcakes. The brand is Glitter gal, the shade Fuchsia (gorgeous pinkish holographic polish with a hint of red in it), great coverage, two coats needed, and drying time was splendid, too. There's 1 coat of top coat in the pics.

How do you like this polish? Do you know the brand? Have you got any other holo polishes from it?

Thank you, dear readers and followers, have a great and polished day:*

Matching nails with my outfit: holographic m64

 Hello, dear readers and followers, hope you're having a great week:)

Today's manicure I did a while ago, when we had a party at work. I chose to wear a beige sleiveless t-shirt with a brown lace top over it. The motiv on the top kind of a matches my nails:) For the base coat I used 2 coats of Gosh Ginger, love the coverage and the drying time is great too. I have already swatched the polish in one of my previous posts.

Then I used Color club Revvvolution and Konad image plate m65.

How do you like the combination? Do you often match your clothes and nail designs/stamping?

Thank you, dear readers and followers, have a nice and polished day:*

Mardi Gras carnival look and matching nails: Wild thing:P

Hello, dear readers and followers,

as promised I am posting this look I did for Mardi Gras  yesterday. We had a lot of fun at work!:)

I was a mixture of cheetah and leopard, and again the painting was my work, though the pictures aren't quite the best but still, I did my best;)

What was your costume for this festival?

How do you like the face painting? I have to say that this year I've tried it for the first time, up till now I always wore masks instead of painting my face. What do you prefer?

I also did a matching manicure, with Color club Love 'em or leave 'em, then stamped it with leopard and cheetah design from Konad image plate m57 and Konad black, then I filled some spots with China glaze Passion.

Thank you, dear readers and followers, have a nice and polished day:*

after 9 hours of wearing these colours:) check the nails;)

Double stamping - KOTD with m57 and m78

Hello, dear readers and followers,

are you having such a bad weather as I? Rain and nothing but rain, want summer back and sun:)

So today I'm showing you a konadicure I did while being in Mali Lošinj, and it reminds me of great time spent there. The polish used is China glaze Aztec orange, full swatched HERE.

First I used Konad special nail polish in black and konad image plate m57, then I added butterflies with m78 and Color club Worth the risque. In the end I also applied one coat of INM OutTheDoor fast drying top coat.

What do you think of the manicure? Do you like it?

Thank you, dear readers and followers, wishing you a nice and polished Sunday:*

All the pics were taken outdoors in the sun:)

The D-day and farewell KOTD

Hello, dear readers and followers:)

I haven't forgotten you, hope you haven't forgotten me either;) As you're reading this I'm on my way to take my final exam, the biggest of them all, so keep your fingers crossed for me *hug* After the exam I'm headed right to the seaside to take my long desired vacation, hurray! I'll be back in forthnight with lots of new pictures and manicures, and of course konadicures;)

SO here's the manicure I did for the exam, I did not want to go for bold and vivid colours, so what else to choose than a classic french manicure:) I used over 1 coat of Nailtek f.2 1 coat of Petites color in Fairy pink (a lovely sheer holographic pink shade) which I got in the swap with Elizabeth from Lacquered lizard! After that I used the french pattern on konad im m19 and konad special nail polish in white, then I added another coat of Fairy pink and sealed everything with one coat of INM OutTheDoor topcoat.

What do you think of the manicure? Like it or not? Where are you spending your summer holidays? What polish are you going to wear?

Thank you, dear readers and followers, wishing you nice days, lots of fun and polished nails:*

Swap from Down Under with Michelle

Hey, dear readers and followers:)

Having a busy weekend, as I have??

Still not much time to do things I love, as for example polishing etc. My days consist of learning, cleaning, cooking, usual household chores that need to be done, but I'm still enjoying the weekend though my BF is away and has been working form Friday till tomorrow, and I'm home alone.

Here's what I got for you today, a SWAP! YAY! After writing a post on taking up a swap, Michelle or 'chelle from Cosmetic Cupcake responded and we soon arranged a swap, which included nail polish of course:) She sent me the brands that aren't available here in Europe. So I received 3 ulta3 polishes in Sweet violet (shimmery a bit frosty violet as the name implies:), Watermelon (sweet coral cream and a colour new to me, I have to admit I haven't owned any coral polish up till now), Hot spring (rich berry cream); 2 TBN polishes in Aubergine (gorgeous eggplant purple loaded with shimmer) and in Raspberries&cream (another lovely which really looks as though you would have crushed raspberries mixed with some cream); 3 BYS polishes whereas 2 are crack polishes (in black and purple!) and one is in Raspberry sorbet (another pretty, dark shimmery brownish red colour), and last but not least my first Glitter gal polish in Fuchsia (a holographic goodnes in bottle). The package also included 1 stamping fauxnad plate and some fimo sticks which I admired on the internet but never tried them out, thanks a bunch:) I just hope the swatches are coming soon, or at least that I have enough time to polish my nails in those gorgeous colours;)

Michelle also added 1 bottle of her favourite cuticle moisturizer Essie Apricot cuticle oil (gorgeous smell and I've have already tried this one out, it really adds extra moisture to the nails) and a tube of her favourite cream Lucas's papaw treatment which I'm saving up for sea holidays:)

Thank you so much Michelle, it was really so much fun doing a swap with you and I loved every single item you sent me! Please check out her blog, she is also having a giveaway at the moment, so hurry up:)

Hmm, pics just don't do it justice KOTD

Hello, dear readers and followers:)

Wishing you a great start into new working week:) Finally, we have sunny weather, and it's really hot here, YAY!

Today I've got a konadicure I did with konad image plate m63 and Color club Worth the risque. I just could not capture the whole image perfectly, though it was perfectly visible in person, but just not in pictures:( these were taken indoors as the weather was bad at the moment of taking them. All but first were taken in my lightbox with artificial light and flash. If you enlarge the pics, you might see the image better:)

What do you think of the combination? It has been a while since I used this image.

Thank you, dear readers and followers, have a nice and polished week:*

What do you think of the combination? Yay or nay?
