The little green feather

Hi!

So as I said, I want to start doing some nail art related posts on my blog too. I had promised to do my friend's nails on Saturday but they surprised me by decorating my house and coming over today so I got out all of my nail art things and we started thinking about ideas. I had an idea to do splatter nails with a straw but for some reason it didn't work at all so that was weird. We went with water decals and glitters instead. This was the first time I've ever used water decals and I kind of like them a lot.



The polishes I used:
Essie - Blanc
OPI -  No Room For The Blues
OPI - A Grape Fit!
Essie - Shake Your $$ Makers
+ some holographic glitter and feather water decals.


And in honor of May Day, my friend decided to decorate the box I made to have a white background for nail polish pictures :DD

See you soon!

Colorful dots

Hi!

So since I got so many new nail polishes on Saturday, I obviously wanted to start using them asap. I looked through pinterest, youtube and nail blogs to get an idea for a nail art that I could do with the supplies I have here. I found these colorful ones with different variations from pinterest and since I didn't want to start with a difficult design, I went with this one. I had to get my Mint Candy Apple in use so I used that as a base. Now that I think about it, a white base would've probably been better.


The polishes I used:
Essie - Mint Candy Apple
BYS - Ultra Violet
Dermosil - Summer Glow
Essie - Shake Your $$ Makers
Essie - She's Picture Perfect
Essie - Blanc
Lumene Natural Code - Angry Birds 54
Color Club - Warhol

I made the dots with a bobby pin. Professional!


So I'm going to start posting my nail art here sometimes. Don't expect anything too fancy because 1. I haven't done nail art in AGES and 2. all of my supplies are in Rovaniemi.

See you soon!

Animals and nail polishes

Hi!

Somehow I won tickets to a pet, outlet, child and arts & crafts fair/expo from a contest on instagram so I asked Laura to join me and we decided to go. The expo was this weekend and I had really no idea what they had there that I'd be interested in but I found out the outlet expo had some pretty cheap nail polishes. It was nice because I'm getting more into nail art again, especially now that I have some new stuff. I ended up buying a bit more than I was planning on but I stayed in my budget the whole day, even after the expo!





Our friend joined us at the expo and after we had walked around for few hours, we decided to leave, go eat some Chinese food and go to few stores at the central. It was such a lovely weather outside. I'm so happy it's getting warmer!







Here's all the things I bought today:


China Glaze - Liquid Crystal, Essie - Mint Candy Apple (a nail polish I've wanted for YEARS), Blanc and Shake Your $$ Makers


Lumene Natural Code - Jewel Green, Angry Birds 54 and Pink Diamond and Lumene - Quick Sand (Jäljet hiekassa)


BYS - Ultra Violet, Diamond Glitter Satin and Emerald


We went to CesarsShop's store after the expo and I got a Nailfix cuticle oli in yummy gummy and Diamond Dazzling and Hexagon Dazzling glitters.


From a random craft store I got two tubes of holographic glitter to use on my nails and from Kicks I got a buffing nail file or whatever those are called :D

I had a really fun day and thanks girls for the company! :)

See you soon!
