Innisfree


YaY, package in my mailbox!

This is what I found.

Massage Essence - Free sample

Polish! Look at them. Glitter, flecks in two colours. 



Here is everything that came in the package. Polish, Juicy Apple - Cleansing Oil ( Free Sample), Massage Essence ( Free Sample), and The Green Tea Seed Serum ( Free Sample).
I bought them from Jinyhaus . < link here.


This is what they claim:
Innisfree is a natural brand that shares the benefits of nature from the pristine island of Jeju allowing for vibrant beauty and pursues an eco-friendly green life to preserve the balance of nature.


I haven't tried any of the samples yet, but I have tried two of the polishes, you can see it here.


Have you gotten anything cool lately?

Summer Challenge - Ice Cream Sundae






I just got 4 polishes from "innisfree" in the mail. They are vegan, and have no bad chemicals in them, and no Smell (!), I bought them on Ebay.

The summer challenge for Ice Cream Sundae was a while ago, but I worked overtime that day so I didn't get a chance to do them, so here they are! They remind me of ice cream, and they look so yummy I had to go and get some sprinkle ice cream.

This is a two coats of 81, and there is still VNL, so I think this would be better for layering over other polishes. Will do one tomorrow.

I broke all my nails on the right hand, while packing our office. We are getting a new office in august. Cant wait. Its so exciting.

Its a good opportunity to test my Sally Hansen - Maximum Growth.

Summer Challenge - Underneath the Stars






For today's Summer challenge we have Underneath the Stars. I wanted to do something easy, and pretty. And decided to go for my Metallic Petrol from H&M, that I got a few weeks ago in a set, with a silver polish and a festive glitter polish.
Had a really hard time getting the rhinestones to show up, but here is the best two shots.

If your wondering what book Im holding, I can tell you that its: Alphabeth of Dreams - Susan Fletcher. I love that book. <3

pale aqua(T)148184
pale aqua blue(T)184
pale aqua green(T)148162+
pale blue(R)171184
pale blue(RC)172185
pale blue(S)186232
pale blue(T)184202

pale blue-green(R) 148


A dictionary of colours, I am impressed.
The other girls have been doing some amazing manis today, so without further ado, here is my mani.




For this mani, I used 3 coats of Savina - Royalty, stamped using the BM 206 and China Glaze - Jolly Holly, and tipped with IsaDora - 626 - Blue Sky.

Nude spirals






Using a plate with spirals ( a no-name BeYu plate) I did this mani using different pastels from Depend, and H&M. Its basically impossible to see that there is colour on the nails unless you see really close.

But it seemed like such a great idea.
I think I have to redo this with colours that is a whole lot brighter.

Im at work now, so I have to post the list of the polishes when I get home, but from what I can see..
Yellow - H&M polish
Light Blue - H&M polish
Pink - H&M polish

Organizing a Collection


So last week, I posted about my Collection of polishes. 
And today I bought a photo album, and started organizing my stamping plates, and nail stickers.
This is how it turned out.


*showing random-pages*




Do you organize your BM / Konad (etc..) plates and nailstickers?

Dollar Nail Art - Haul


Hi everyone.
So I found this website called Dollar Nail Art . They sell foils, rhinestones, glitters, and striping tape, all for, well, the name, really says it all. A Dollar.

I couldn't resist such a great offer, so I bought a few items from it. I bought a set of three rhinestone wheels, since these are bigger than those I got when I bought my rhinestones from BundleMonster. And I find the BundleMonster wheels to be a pain to use. The lid is really hard to move, and they always ruin my polish.
And I have to say. I LOVE these wheels. easy to slide open, perfect size for the palm of your hand. LOOVE it.

I also got some foils, I have never used foils before, but the look really cool, and doesn't seem so hard to use. Seen some great guides on YouTube on how to use them.


Here are the once I ordered.
Those to the left is the Tidal Waves which gives you free Nail Foil Glue. I also got the Roman Marble, Snakeskin, English Rose, and Kashmir Gold.

I am so happy, with this purchase, it makes me wanna dance.

Have you bought anything nail-related that made you wanna dance?

Summer Challenge - Jungle mani




So today we are doing jungle mani`s, and I wasn't sure what to do, but I received a  package today with some striping tape and I knew I had to use that.
When I think of jungles, I think of lush green colors, this is what I came up with.
For this mani I used black striping tape, Loreal - 612 Green Couture (tips), and Sinful Colors - Irish Green.

Can I call it a jungle mani?

My Collection





Recently I bought these nail polish wheels, so that I could organize my collection. So, after a few hours of painting, and sorting. This is the result.
I realized that I have a lot of baby blue, and teal polishes, and not that many red.

How do you organize your collection?

French Tips using Depend - set


Found some old pictures from a blog-post that I never posted, but here it is.

I have to say, for being so cheap, this set it very good. I payed about 5 pounds for this set.
The topcoat is one of those that takes forever to dry ( I`m usually using Linda Johansen Quick Dry Topcoat, so everything more that a quick dry, is forever, it really doesn't take more than a few min.), but once it does, it gives a lot of shine, and it last forever, no chipping or anything. And this lasted me for a week, and then I got bored of it.






The set comes with French tip guides, a topcoat, a pink base, and a french white.

Stamped squares


Lamplight and flash.
Daylight.
The stamp wasn't big enough for my thumb, as you can see. :(

Using  Depend - 228 ( I think, the number is all rubbed out) a nude pink colour as base, and stamped with Bundlemonster plate - 203 with Depend - 188.
I wanted a mani that would match my Luis Vuitton bag, I think I will redo the thumb and maybe make a LV sign.

Shaded Blues


Sorry for not participating in the Summer Challenge. I didn't quite feel like it today, here is my first sponged mani, ( well.. I just sponged the tips, but its a beginning.

One coat of BeYu - 142

One coat of NYX Matte - Teal, on half.

Depend - 246 sponged on the tips and stamped BM plate.




I used three different blues for this mani, and French White from H&M. This is the first time I have ever sponged polish, and I am very pleased with the result.
BeYu - 142, NYX Matte - Teal, Depend - 246, French White - H&M. Using Bundlemonster plate - erhm, where is that plate now.. 

Ill let you know when I find it.


Did my besties nails as well with NYX Matte - Teal.

NYX Matte - Teal. Matching the coffee cup we went out and got after I had done our nails.


Let me know what you think in  the box bellow.
