Hey guys!
Today I have some simple holographic zebra nail art to share with you!
For the manicure I started off with a black base of Essie Licorice on all my nails. Afterwards I stamped the zebra design using the gunmetal grey scattered holo Appeal4 Cosmic Crush and MoYou London Pro Plate 03.
The new Appeal4 holos are amazing for stamping!

Stay polished.

Appeal4 We Need All Holographic Everything
Hey guys!
Today I have swatches and a review of the beautiful, new Appeal4 collection We Need All Holographic Everything - a collection consisting only of (you guessed it) holos!
First up is H1 Cosmic Crush - a gunmetal grey scattered holo.
The formula on this one is perfect - not too thin and not too thick. It is opaque in two thin and easy coats.
This one is definitely my favourite shade from the collection - b-e-a-uuuu-tiful!
Next up the H2 Eternal Vibe - an olive green scattered holo.
The formula on this one is great as well - a little on the thinner side though, but it does not run down the sides of my nails or anything. It needed three coats to be completely opaque.
This shade is so unique for a holo - I have never seen anything like it!
Next polish is H3 Amp Up Your Holo - a teal blue scattered holo.
The formula on this one is good and it is easy to apply. The opacity is great as well and it is opaque in two coats.
H4 Addicted To - a silver scattered holo with strong blue undertones.
The formula on this one is like H2 Eternal Vibe - a little on the thin side. It was opaque in three thin coats.
This shade is really unique in a holo as well - I love it!
Next we have H5 Karma Cameleon - a lilac scattered holo with a gold shimmer.
The formula on this one is like H2 and H4 - a little on the thin side (but I do tend to prefer thicker formulas in polishes). It needed three coats to be completely opaque.
This polish is the most unique in the bunch - I have never seen a scattered holo with a shimmer in it as well!
H6 Out-of-this-world is a stunning purple scattered holo.
The formula is great on this one! And it only needs two easy layers to achieve complete opacity.
Last up is H7 Cosmic Runway - a pink scattered holo.
The formula on this one is good and it is opaque in three coats. This polish did have a few unmixed pieces in it, but not too many.
All in all I love this collection! So many unique shades!

Matte
Hey guys!
Today I have some very simple nail art to share with you!
For the manicure I started off with a red base of Gosh Medina on all my nails. Afterwards I used striping tape and Essie Matte About You to mattify all my nails except for the single stripe of shiny underneath the striping tape.
Matte nail art are always amazing!

Spring
Hey guys!
Today I have some abstract floral nail art inspired by @melcisme to show you guys!
For the manicure I started off with a green base of Essie First Timer on my ring finger and thumb, a white base of CND Cream Puff on my pointer and middle finger, and a silver base of By K. Moon Dust on my pinky. Afterwards I freehanded the abstract flowers on my pointer and middle finger with a small nail art brush, Essie First Timer and By K. Moon Dust. To finish everything off I applied small silver studs to my pointer, ring finger, and middle finger.
Close-up!
This nail art is perfect for spring!

L'Oréal Coral Trianon
Hey guys!
Today I have a swatch and review of the new L'Oréal Coral Trianon.
Coral Trianon is an orange-leaning coral creme.
The formula of this polish is on the thick side, but that just makes it easier to control. The opacity is great and it covers perfectly in two easy coats. It does have a very perfumed smell though.
It is a little more orange in reality, but it was so hard to capture it on camera.

I'm With Her
Hey guys!
Today I have some political nail art to share with you - Hillary Clinton inspired nails!
For the manicure I started off with a blue base of Essie Mesmerize on all my nails, except for my ring finger which I painted white with CND Cream Puff. Afterwards I freehanded the I'm With Her logo with Essie Mesmerize, watered-down red acrylic paint and a small nail art brush.
I made these nails for Super Tuesday and I really like how they turned out!
