Palate Cleanser

Hey guys!

Today I have some simple nail art to share with you! I really needed something simple on my nails to act like a palate cleanser for me.

For the manicure I started off with a taupe nude base of Essie Go Go Geisha on all my nails. Afterwards I used a small nail art brush and Dance Legend Silver Leaf top coat to create the glitter gradient.

I love a simple glitter gradient as this one!

F.U.N Lacquer Incredible

Hey guys!

Today I have a swatch and review of F.U.N Lacquer Incredible from the new F.U.N Lacquer 4th Anniversary Collection.
Incredible is a magnetic multi-chrome that ranges from magenta to gold to green.

The formula is great. Like with F.U.N Lacquer Believe I applied two coats over a black base and used a magnet to get the magnetic effect. The shift in this polish is not as intense as in F.U.N Lacquer Believe though.


I had to make this awkward hand pose to capture some of the magnetic multi-chrome effect.
And here's a closer look!


I have to say that I am a little disappointed with this polish after having tried Believe to compare this to.

F.U.N Lacquer Believe

Hey guys!

Today I have a swatch and review of F.U.N Lacquer Believe from the new F.U.N Lacquer 4th Anniversary Collection.
Believe is a magnetic multi-chrome that ranges from aqua blue to emerald green to purple to magenta to copper red. The shift in this polish is insane!

The formula on this polish is great. I applied two coats over a black base and used a magnet to get the magnetic effect. The opacity is great as well and you can apply one or two coats over black depending on how strong of a multi-chrome magnetic effect you want.


The multi-chrome magnetic effect was so hard to capture on camera, but you can see the shift from aqua blue to emerald green to purple on the picture above.

I am in love with the crazy effects in this polish!

Halloween

Hey guys!

Today I have some Halloween nail art inspired by @lieve91 to share with you!

For the manicure I started off with a yellow base of By K. Dandelion on all my nails. Afterwards I used a make-up sponge, the burnt orange polish OPI It's a Piazza Cake, and the black polish Essie Licorice to create the gradient base. Afterwards I freehanded the tree, the haunted house, the tombstones, and the bats with watered-down black acrylic paint and a small nail art brush.

I am so happy with how these turned out!

Lead Light

Hey guys!

Today I have some lead light nail art inspired by one of my old manicures and by Anna Gorelova to share with you!

For the manicure I started off with a white base of Essence Wild White Ways. Afterwards I stamped the leaves with MoYou London Tropical 06 stamping plate and the black polish Essie Licorice. Lastly I colored in the leaves with OPI Chromatic Orange, OPI Pen & Pink, and OPI Purple Perspective.

I will never get tired of this manicure!

Oil Droplets

Hey guys!

Today I have some very simple nail art to share with you!

For the manicure I started off with a stunning red-toned berry base of Essence True Love. Afterwards I added the two studs (that kinda looks like oil droplets) to my ring finger.


Close up!


I am really busy at the moment, so unfortunately I don't have a lot of time for nail art.

Essie Shine of the Times

Hey guys!

Today I have some simple negative space nail art featuring two of my absolute favourite polishes!

For the manicure I started off with a cobalt blue base of Chanel Vibrato on all my nails - on my ring finger and pinky I only painted part of the nail and cleaned up the edges of the negative space nail art with a clean-up brush dipped in acetone. Afterwards I applied Essie Shine of the Times on my pinky and ring finger.


Close up!


I am in LOVE with this nail art!
