Magnetic nail spirals with new Essence stuff :D

Dear readers, today is a very special day! I got my hands on the magnet pen, new in the Essence collection. I was dying to get it and along with this awesome thingy, I bought a new magnetic nail polish called 'Witch you were here'. I practiced a bit with the pen by layering over yesterday's graffiti manicure and chose to do a full manicure with a spiral design I came up with.

Also, the lovely giveaway ladies deserve their visitors :D. To share current giveaways I made a special page. You can click here or use the special tab (:

Did you guys ever win something in a giveaway??

Oh, my glitter manicure is still on by the way :D It lasts very well. The polish (without top coat) has been on my nails for three days now and it has barely visible minimal micro tip wear.

~ Cosmic Purple ~

Hola! Here are some pictures of my current manicure. I'm wearing W7's Cosmic Purple - which is blue and pink square glitter in a purple base. This is two coats.

Liebster Award

 

Chrissie from +10 Kapow nominated me for this award (thanks again Chrissie)! I read on her blog that "The Liebster Award is given to up and coming bloggers with under 200 followers".  I think this is a very nice idea! It helps discovering new blogs and with getting more followers (let's just admit it: we all want those :D) It comes with some rules:

1. You must post 11 facts about yourself.

   2. Answer the questions set by the blogger that nominated you. 

3. Choose 11 blogs and link them in your post.

4. Come up with 11 questions for your nominees to answer.

5. Go to their blog and tell them you have nominated them.

6. No tag backs!

Here we go then:

Geometric nails

Finally painted my nails again after being sick for six days! I copied this look by blogger Caroline Burke and used a green MAX nail polish I bought at action for just €0,49 (: (I'm really getting the hang of buying cheap ass polishes these days). I love the colour - I have never seen a green like this.

My most frequently used top coats

After writing about my most frequently used base coats it is time to say a little something about the top coats I like to use! I don't use top coat that often. I don't really need my manicures to last long since I like changing what's on my nails every two or three days. When I do use top coat, I probably grab one of these three bottles!

 




Essence - top speed gloss
This is a thin top coat that dries very fast. I use this when I wear very cheap, fast chipping polishes and don't feel like a thick sealing coat.

Girly Polkadot French with MAX nail stamps

Hello dear readers (: I was quite excited about doing this manicure because I used something I was curious about to create it. At Action, I found a very cheap nail art stamping kit. Though I allready own two Konad sets, I decided to buy this becayse I didn't have the included plate yet, and it was just €1,- ! It's not the most perfect manicure ever but I thought it was very cute and I wanted to share it :D
