Shiny and matte french NOTD

 Hello, dear readers and followers:)

No long words, just mostly pictures of the manicure ;)

I had to play with Zoya Harlow (matte version and glossy version) a bit more, so I decided to go for matte french tips for which I used the same polish.

Not sure if I like the end result, how about you?

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

Let's add some shine to it: Glossy Zoya Harlow NOTD

 Hello, dear readers and followers,

hope you're enjoying the weekend as much as I do:)

I just had to apply INM top coat over Zoya Harlow to see its sparkliness, would you blame me;) On to the pics, which show the beauty of glossy Harlow, I even think I like it better that way. How about you? Which finish do you prefer?

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

Zoya Harlow swatch and NOTD

Hello, dear readers and followers,

nail polish photos at last :)

Here's another Zoya nail polish I got in my international swap with Elizabeth from Lacquered Lizard - Zoya Harlow - matte purple red gorgeousness in a bottle.There are 2 coats in the pictures, all over 1 coat of Nailtek f.2. The application was good, no problems - although you have to be fairy quick when you apply this baby, it dries really fast.

What's more to say than I love it! I'll try it with a top coat for sure :)

How about you? Do you fancy it too?

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

Covergirl LashBlast mascara review

Hello, dear readers and followers,

hope you're having a great day!

No nails today, but some pics of me wearing Covergirl LashBlast mascara which I got in  my swap with Maria from R3 Daily. I've read some many reviews about this mascara I just couldn't wait to try it on and was super happy when I received it in Maria's package.

I'm sure you're seen many reviews too, how about another quick one ;) This piece of beauty is simply AMAZING! I can say it the best mascara I've come across with. There are 2 coats of it in the pics and no clumping or whatsoever. Just pure volume and length, that's all I need in my mascara :)

What's your favourite mascara of all time? Which ones would you like to try?

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

Konaded Watermelon with Bundle monster im

Hello, dear readers and followers,

today's post is going to be brief and short, so not a lot blabla, just pics:)

For this manicure/konadicure I used yesterday's Ulta3 Watermelon nail polish and a design from Bundle monster image plate BM17 which is supposed to be used as french pattern, but I decided to try it differently, as well as Konad special nail polish in white.

Hope you like the combination, what do you think of it?

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

Summer nails - Ulta3 Watermelon swatch and some summer memories


Hello, dear readers and followers:)

FRIDAY! YAY:)

Today I've got for you the manicure I wore when I was at the sea side during my vacation. The colour I chose was Ulta3 in Watermelon, lovely coral cream colour which I got in my swap with 'chelle from Cosmetic Cupcake. There are 2 coats in the pictures and no top coat.  I had no application troubles. The polish dried fairly quickly. This is my very first nail polish in coral,  I did not own any before:)

As for the name, I just had to take some photos with fresh and juicy watermelon in my hands, delicious :P

How do you like coral colours? Have any favourites? What do you think of this one?

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

Glitter red french tips

Hello, dear readers and followers:)

A quick post today - I did not want to change my manicure with Color club Special effects but I wanted to spice it up a bit. So I took my favourite red glitter polish, China glaze Ruby pumps, and made a french manicure out of it. The pics don't do it justice as it looked much better IRL, the effect could be seen much clearly.

Would you wear this combination? What do you think of it?

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