Christian Louboutin Batignolles

Hello ladies!

Today I have a swatch and review of one of my new Christian Louboutin shades - Batignolles.
Batignolles is a dusty teal creme.


The formula was fantastic - so creamy and smooth! It was opaque in two thin and easy coats although one thicker layer might have been enough.


Everything about these Louboutin shades are perfect and they are worth every penny!

Fancy Friday: TV-series

Hi girls!

Today it is time for another Fancy Friday challenge that I chose.
This week the challenge is TV-series (which I loooove and use way to many hours a day watching) and I made Friends nails inspired by Nana Nail Polish!

For the manicure I started off with a black base of Essie Licorice on all my nails. Afterwards I used white, blue, red, and yellow acrylic paint and a small nail art brush to make the Friends logo across my nails.


I think these turned out great!

Burgers, Fries & Hot Dogs

Hey guys!

Today I have some fun nail art to share with you!
I received my new MoYou London stamping plates yesterday so today I wanted to try one of them.

For the manicure I started off with a nude base of Essie Urban Jungle on all my nails except for my pinky which I painted bronze with Essie Penny Talk. Afterwards I stamped the cute little burgers, fries and hot dogs with MoYou London Cook Book 06 and Essie Penny Talk.


This color combination was totally stolen from the sweet Milena of Nail That Design.

Christian Louboutin Wherever

Hello ladies!

Today I have a swatch and review of one of my new Christian Louboutin shades - Wherever.
Wherever is a dark blue creme.


The formula was AMAZING! It applied like butter and it was so easy to work with! The opacity was fantastic as well and it was almost a one-coater - I applied two thin layers for the photo below though.

Indie Nail the Mail Box

Hey guys!

Today I have something new to show you: the Indie Nail the Mail Box!
Nail the Mail is a new Danish nail polish shop that ships to most of Europe. They made these monthly nail polish subscription boxes - a Indie Box and a Mixed Box. The indie box will contain two polishes - one handmade indie nail polish made just for the box, one indie nail polish from one of the bigger indie makers and a little something extra for nail care or nail art.
You guys can read more about the boxes here.


This box contains Foxy Paws My Friend Has a Swimmingpool, Glisten & Glow Mayday Malone and the little something extra: Appeal4 A-peel Off-base. And best of all: the polishes comes in the sweetest little black box!


Foxy Paws My Friend Has a Swimmingpool is a blue scattered holo with a teal undertone.
The formula was amazing and it was really easy to apply. The opacity was great as well and it was opaque in two thin coats.
This color is so beautiful - perfect for summer!


Glisten & Glow Mayday Malone is a dark grey linear holo.
The formula was a little on the thin side, but not so much that it was drowning my cuticles. It was opaque in three thin coats.
I did not think much about this color until I saw it in the sun - and then wow!


Appeal4 A-peel Off-Base is a peel-off base for glitter polish. You just apply 1 or 2 coats of this directly on your natural nail before you apply the glitter polish.

I am already loving these monthly subscription boxes and I cannot wait for the next one!

Ps. this box is a blogger box sponsored by Nail the Mail and it can not be bought.

Fancy Friday: Rainbow

Hello ladies!

Today it is time for Fancy Friday!
This month I chose the challenges and today the challenge is rainbow - I made a rainbow manicure using the side-way gradient technique.

For the manicure I started off with a white base of OPI Alpine Snow on all my nails. Then I made the side-way gradients using a make-up sponge and the following polishes: Sally Hansen Pucker Up (red), L'Oréal Lush Tangeringe (orange), Sally Hansen Mellow Yellow (self-explanatory), Essie Mojito Madness (green), Essie I'm Addicted (blue) and OPI Funky Dunkey (purple). I finished everything off with a layer of China Glaze Fairy Dust.


I love how festive and fun this manicure turned out!
