BarryM - Blue Plum

I continue with yet another blue polish. This time Blue Plum from Barry M's Gelly series. The Gelly series gives a hi-shine and boy I can tell you that just after 2 layers and NOOOO topcoat it leaves your nails looking like this!!


I'm telling you, just look how deep and shinny they are!! I wish we had BarryM in Sweden but oh no, we don't :(


I got a bit inspired by one of my mums t-shirts so I did a nautical nail art on three of my nails. I stamped the stars and the anchor with a white Bissu polish and then with the white Kiss Nail Art Paint I drew the lines and also filled in the starts, since they where a bit pale.

OPI - Alcatraz...Rocks

I think I have already posted a blogpost about Alcatraz...Rocks from OPI, like last year... well well, here is a new one. I bought A.R when I was traveling the US west coast last year and very convenient since we where almost a week in San Francisco and visited Alcatraz. 

Alcatraz...Rocks is a blue/gold/purple liquid sand from the San Francisco collection that came out last year. 

It's very hard for both my iPhone and camera to cover the awesomeness that this polish is..

Galaxy Nails


Made some galaxy nails using Manhunter and Mon Amie from H&M, Sweet As Sugar from Rimmel and Chaotic from Sephora Formula X collection. . .

I started off by painting 2 layers of Manhunter (a beautiful black) and then sponged Mon Amie over the black polish in like a galaxy line over the nail. Mon Amie looks like it's a white/pearl polish but it's more white with gold. Which just as it is, looks like galaxies but I wasn't done with only 2 polishes. I then sponged Sweet As Sugar, a soft blue polish from Rimmel just like I did with Mon Amie. Over the whole thing I painted Chaotic from Sephora, a clear nailpolish with matte white and black hexagon and roads of glitter.

Sheer tints. How to and manicure.

 Some days ago I did my own Sheer Tints ( I can't pay $25 for each Sheer Tint from OPI) after I saw a video that Nails By Joha did on Instagram. I know I did something similar at the age of 14 so it's not something new but I have never thought of having a white base and then do nail art with it... 

This is how I did: I used China Glaze Purple Panic, Sinful Colors Innocent (which I call "the Shrek green") and a blue from Primark (that turned purple after some days of mixing the polishes). I used clear polishes from Bissu (for the pink), FOF (for the green) and H&M (for the blue/purple) and I then added about 20 drops of the polishes I had decided for. Give it a good stir and then you have Sheer Tints in the colors of your choice :) 


 So today I painted my nails (on top of the Pink Mist from H&M) with China Glaze White on White and the sheer tints.

H&M - Pink Mist


This is Pink Mist from H&M one of the nailpolish I bought in UK. I painted my nails with it. Can you see that my nails are painted in this soft pink shade?!? Nope me either, but I think it's a very good polish to have when doing french manicure or when you want to have polished nails without showing. . .

Depend


On Friday I had my German translation exam, I hate that exam cuz I have done it soooo many times.. so after the exam one of my classmates and I went down to the city center to just walk, well we ended up at Harmoniq here in Västerås and they had a sale on a lot of stuff... 

So yeah I bought some Depend nailpolishes since they had lower the price from 25kr to 17 kr... only 8 kr but ok, I needed something to cheer me up.

The polishes from Depend don't have any names but numbers, so the numbers I got this time was : 202, 369, 392 and 405

Nails Inc - Lanesborough Place and stamping with Bissu & OPI - Push & Shove

Today I painted my nails with Nails Inc - Lanesborough Place, that I got from my friend Rica (check her blog, she makes jewellery), a golden nailpolish and over it a made some stamping with anchors and swallows (with a plate from essence, that I bought in Bremen or Hamburg) with a black Bissu and the silver Push And Shove from OPI

The Lansborough Place was a bit hard to apply even on my nails, I don't know if it's starting to be "old" or cuz it's in a small bottle ( I seam to always have problem with small bottle polishes...)

Yesensy, new polish and gradient


 Today I painted with a new polish and a new brand for me.. Yesensy from Spain I think. Unfortunately it doesn't have any name nor number so I can tell you which one to buy, if you like it. I think it's a dupe of OPI' s Lucky Lucky Lavender, I have to compare them later on to see it they are dupes.

Yesensy, I think, is a very good polish. I panted two layers and it was perfect covering and no problem painting.

Just because I was bored I also did, I tried, to yet again do a gradient with some purple polishes. I don't know about the end result, still needs some improvement working with a make up sponge to do gradient... 

L.A. Colors - Berry Red

Notd should perhaps be fnotd (FootNailOfTheDay) since this contains my feet in the pic.. I used L.A.Colors Berry Red a polish I bought at Rays in Garberville, California last year on our west coast trip.. It's a very bloodred nailpolish that is very nice!! . .

OPI - 4 in the morning and China Glaze - Electrify

I did yet another combo with glitters... I liked the last one so much that I needed to do yet another. But this time it's a more autumny look to it and it kinda reminds me of Thanksgiving and Halloween, I know many months left but yeah...

For this darker combo I used OPI's 4 in the morning from the Gwen Stefani collection and Electrify from China Glaze and the Hunger Games collection ( I think...)

I started off with 2 layers of 4 in the morning a dark grey, cuz it's not black, and then I added some layers of Electrify.
