Macarons

Hey guys!

Today I have some nail art inspired by these macarons by @lakridskongen!

For the manicure I started off with a dusty Tiffany blue base of China Glaze For Audrey on all my nails. Afterwards I used a watered-down black acrylic paint and a brush to create the black spots by flicking the brush towards my nails. I finished everything off by adding some random dry brush strokes across my nails using the metallic bronze China Glaze Meet Me at the Mirage.


Matte!

Even though the base colour isn't perfect, I like how this mani turned out!

piCture pOlish Desire

Hey guys!

I finally got piCture pOlish Desire (after being in love with this stunning shade for almost a year) and today I would like to share a swatch and review with you guys!
Desire is a polish with a deep raspberry red base with a purple to burnt orange multichrome shimmer and scattered holo.

The formula is amazing - it is butter-y smooth and easy to apply. The opacity is good and it is opaque in two coats.

This shade is perfect for fall and sweater weather!


I am so happy I finally got this polish!

piCture pOlish Story

Hey guys!

Today I have a swatch and review of the awesome piCture pOlish Story to share with you!
Story is a dark teal blue magnetic holo.

The formula is great and it is easy to apply. It is nearly opaque in one coat, which is amazing, but I used two coats to enhance the magnetic effect. The magnetic effect is fantastic and I love how it looks on the nails!

I am in love with this magnetic holo!
