Lavender purple marble NOTD

Hello, dear readers,

how are you feeling today??

It's been quite a while since I've done a marble manicure, this was my very first one, and today is time to show you my second one:) though I think it's not a success, at least not in my opinion, it looks better in pics than in real life:) My fav is the one on ring finger.

As a base I used yesterday's NOTD with China glaze Agent lavender. For marbling I took Chic 268 and OPI Alpine snow.

What do you think of the marble? Have you tried doing it? What was the result?

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

Swap with Tuli - swatches:) and Skin MD giveaway winner

My camera finally agreed to cooperate with me:) So here are the promised swatches from yesterday's post on my swap with Tuli.  

But first I would like to tell you who won one bottle of Skin MD natural shielding lotion. 19 followers took part in the giveaway and I've written down your names in the order you've written comments, then I asked my BF  to name a number between  1 and 19 and he chose 17. So a bottle goes to May. Congratulations! I'll send you an email, answer me within 48 hours with your shipping adress so I can send it to Skin MD directly.


On to the pics:P


From left to right:

Swap with Tuli, lots and lots of polishes:)

Not so long ago, my fellow blogger and dear friend Tuli from Tuli's Nail Polishes&stuff  and I decided to do a polish exchange or just swap:) Check her post on the swap;) I have to say that was also my very first swap, have never done it before, so I was super excited about it.

We agreed to swap 5 polishes and some other goods. So imagine how I was surprized when I received a large or better to say huge package from her. She sent me 9, omg couldn't believe my eyes when I've opened the package, different polishes. Everything she sent me was packed in the cutest box on Earth, Betty Boop, see it under the post.

The second picture gives you all the stuff she sent me, from nail care accesories, eye shadow, and of course sweets and other goodies from her country. No sweets are left, I must admit, my BF and I ate everything, and it was delicious:P

On to the polishes; Tuli sent me as I said whole 9 polishes, wow! The polishes on the 3rd picture are from left to right  Andrea 15 (gorgeous lilac colour), Jade 356 (amazing dark purple with purple and pink shimmer, reminds me a bit of Essie Sexy divide), Jade 361 (I think it's duochrome dusty shimmery pink and taupe, mauve, don't know how to describe it, as it's so great!), Chic 268 (very dark almost black  creme purple, eggplant colour).

On the last pictures there are Careline 309 (very light pink with silver glitter), Careline 355 (burgundy red colour with copper shimmer), Careline 335 (bright timeless classic red), Jade 352 (berry cream), and Jade 315 (bright red with gold, pink shimmer).

Tuli has chosen just the right colours for me, as though I would have done it myself. Thank you so much, you're a true sweetheart and I'm looking forward to doing another swap:*

All of the colours look simply amazing! I'll post the swatches tomorrow, as my camera and I weren't on good terms today:)

I would also like to inform you, if you don't know yet, she is having a GREAT Valentine giveaway going on. Check her blog for more details:) Prizes are to die for<3
