The Easter Eggs Hatched

Today I have for you an Easter Egg manicure. I don't really celebrate Easter, but I love holidays, so I am throwing myself into this one as well.

Last year I did three different Easter manicures, all using the same background polish.

I have been on the lookout for a really good yellow polish for this years Easter manicure. I even bought a yellow texture! 
But even so, when it was time to do Easter nails again, I  am tempted to go for the same polish as last year. I managed to stay away, and opted for this B*O polish instead, that I bought from Born Pretty Store. It's called 62, and it's more like an orangey-yellow.

I used 3 coats of B*O - 62 for this manicure and finished it off with Sally Hansen - Sugar Coat - Sugar Fix. I also added some wings, eyes and beak using Nordic Cap - NP07, Sinful Color - Snow Me White (I have also bought myself a backup of this polish as it's running very low), and Wet n Wild - Black (I really need a backup of this, very soon)








Happy Easter Everyone!

Tag: My boyfriend does my nails (aka Inspired By a Movie)

Sorry for MIA lately, I have now moved into my flat, and is started to get settled in. I finally got internet here, which took forever. Mostly cause I had to wait for an installer to drag the line into the flat, and wait for there to be one that was available. Due to all the flooding here in UK, that took its time.

I wanted to do something fun, and this tag is something I have been wanting to do for a while. So after an eternity of trying to get him on-board for this (which only took 3 sec), we sat down and doodles on my nails. This is what he came up with.

For background colour, we used Nordic Cap - NP07, which is a bright orange, and Essie - Bobbing For Baubles for accent. Using the accent colour to create the design.




He choose the symbols from the Firefly - Serenity movie. 

In the future, a spaceship called Serenity is harboring a passenger with a deadly secret. Six rebels on the run. An assassin in pursuit. When the renegade crew of Serenity agrees to hide a fugitive on their ship, they find themselves in an awesome action-packed battle between the relentless military might of a totalitarian regime who will destroy anything - or anyone - to get the girl back and the bloodthirsty creatures who roam the uncharted areas of space. But, the greatest danger of all may be on their ship.Written by Anthony Pereyra (from IMDB)
