Essie Borrowed & Blue

Hey guys!

Today I tried on Essie Borrowed & Blue - one of my newest nail polishes.
Borrowed & Blue is a light (almost off-white) pastel blue from Essie's Bridal 2011 Collection.

The formula was great - two easy coats and you are good to go! I was really surprised with the quality of this nail polish as most off-white colours are very difficult to work with.
The dry-time was amazing as well!

I really like this nail polish - perfect for spring and summer (and weddings of course).

Easter Manicure #3

Hello ladies!

Today I made yet another easter manicure for you guys - a bunny ears manicure!

I started off with a light pink base of Essie Fiji on all of my nails. Afterwards I used a small nail art brush, Essie Fiji and the white nail polish OPI Alpine Snow to freehand on the bunny ears on my two accent nails.
This is a really simple design that even nail art beginners can do!

I really love this manicure! I think it is so cute, funny and pretty.

Easter Manicure #2

Hi girls!

Today I made some more easter nail art for you guys - an easter egg manicure.

I started off with a base of Etude House BL601 and L'Oréal Confettis to make my nails look like Robin's eggs. Afterwards I outlined my nails with a black nail polish and a small nail art brush in the shape of an egg - pretty easy really.

This manicure is not as easter-y as I'd hoped it would be, but I really like it anyway.
Can you guys see it is Robin's eggs? What do you girls think about this nail art? Is it easter-y enough?

Ruffian with silver and green

Hey guys!

Today I made another manicure for the Danish nail polish brand By K. using no. 68 Moon Dust from their Imperial Collection and no. 64 First Class from their AW13 Collection.

I started off with a silver base of By K. Moon Dust. Afterwards I painted on two coats of By K. First Class a little higher up the nail, but in the same shape so you leave that little moon shape at the cuticle area. It is a really easy design, and it is so classy and pretty at the same time!

I love this ruffian manicure - I think it is so pretty!

Essie Hide & Go Chic

Hello ladies!

Today I am wearing a new polish of mine - Essie Hide & Go Chic.
Hide & Go Chic is a beautiful azure blue creme nail polish.

The formula was amazing - it went on like butter! It needed two easy coats to be opaque, so the opacity was great as well.
Hide & Go Chic is the name-sake of Essie's Spring 2014 Collection of which I have four of the six shades - it is such a beautiful collection!

I really love this nail polish - such a perfect blue!

Baby Shower

Hello ladies!

Tomorrow I am going to a family get-together for my new-born niece, so today I made some nail art to match the occasion.

I started off with a pink base of OPI Chic from Ears to Tail on all my nails except for my two accent nails, which I painted white with OPI Alpine Snow. Afterwards I freehanded and doodled some baby stuff (tiny feet, a rattle, a pacifier and so on) on my two accent nails using my Pink Barry M Nail Art Pen. Lastly I added some glitter to my nails (except for my two accent nails) using OPI Minnie Style.
It is pretty simple when you break it down!

I think this manicure turned out pretty darn cute! Perfect for the occasion!

Easter Manicure #1

Hi girls!

Today I made some quick easter nail art - a cute and simple baby chick manicure.

I started off with a yellow base of Ciaté Big Yellow Taxi on all of my nails. Afterwards I followed this tutorial by Elizabeth at Did My Nails, using Maybelline Coral Craze for the orange beaks and feet.

This manicure is so easy to do and really cute and pretty at the same time - I love it.
