NOTD - Marc Jacobs 142 Fluorescent Beige

Hiiii, 

Since my last post was a bit more personal talk than an actual blogspot, I thought I'll do a NOTD post about the nailpolish that you could see on the picture from the last post ^^ I recently purchased two shades from the brand Marc Jacobs.

Been loving Marc Jacobs designs since I discovered the brand for the first time and when they launched a beauty line and nailpolishes I was beyond excitment :D

I wasn't at all disappointed with the design of the nailpolish bottle and I was going to try some of his makeup stuff anyway. They are just so pretty!!!! This is one of the two shades I got, it's called Fluorescent Beige. It was one of the colors that hypnotized me immediately with it's shimmer. The other color I bought is brighter, like almost a fuchsia pink and called Shocking!

 

Marc Jacobs said about this neutral color: "I love the idea of something neutral being really eye-catching, like the fluorescent beige."

 

With this iridescent beige color comes a pink shimmer, that unfortunately doesn't show as much on the nails as it shines through the bottle but you can still see it sometimes depending on the change of light and sometimes it seems more like a beige creme.

 

Sometimes it looks a bit more taupe and sometimes just like an old pink but no matter which color it seems like, it's ALWAYS beautiful.

 

The formula is a dream! It's a more milky formula which I thought I would not like until I tried this nailpolish ^^ You'll should get a perfect coverage with 3 thin coats.

 

You can get this beauty in the bottle at sephora.com for 18€/$.

NOTD - Plaid/Tartan Nails!

Ho Ho Hooo Merry Christmas :)


Just a little post to show you what I came up with yesterday for the holiday/winter season!

I was bored and since I haven't done anything interesting with my nails lately I suddenly had the idea, looking at my plaid Zara scarf, to do plaid nails. And this is the result :D


Two layers of red nailpolish and then I drew some vertical and horizontally black and silver lines. Took me quite some time but I was doing it while watching one of my favorite series ^^

 

My thumb and three middle fingers turned out quite good thought while I totally screwed up my pinky finger xD Compared to my right hand, my left turned quite good. I have to practise thought...
 

RED : Avril le vernis #19 Rouge opéra
BLACK : Essence nail art freestyle & tip painter in #09 Mysterious black
SILVER : Essence nail art freestyle & tip painter in #03 Silver Surfer

Hope you like it. Leave a comment please!

And have a nice holiday season,

XoXo

NOTD - 'Dream On' by Sinful Colors

Hiiii guys,

If you like fuchsia then you'll like the color I picked for my NOTD post!

It's from the brand Sinful Colors Professional and is called 'Dream On' :)



Pardon but I don't know what happed while shooting these pictures, I somehow managed to get something dark on my ringfinger and I didn't even notice until I loaded the pictures up xD

 

Actually this colors is matte as you can see here below but I like it more with a top coat over it! For me this is totally fuchsia, but maybe you could also say it's a neon popping purple and in the right light it has some amazing bright tones to it.


I applied it over my grown out gel nails (which I filled off quite a bit with a machine I have at home). I applied 2 thin coats and then my Seche Vite top coat.

Funny story, I can't remember when I actually bought this nailpolish, it wasn't recently for sure cuz this year I promised myself I'll stop being such a nailpolish maniac, so it must have been last year. I even forgot I have this polish but I found him in my storage and I fell in love with it all over again. I love this color, it's so 'damn in your face' and perfect to end a summer with.
I'd say this is one of the most beautiful colors Sinful Colors professional brought out and a must-have color for the nails.

Thanks for reading!

NOTD - Copy that look

Hey guys,


Here I am again! And I'm bringing you my newest nail design along. Since today is an important day in one of my friends life because she's getting married, I wanted to do my nails such as I saw them on a picture that popped up on my instagram wall some time ago.

This is what I'm talking about!!! Cute hein??? YESH super cute if you ask me :=D

 

And this is what I was able to create on my nails :)

 

Not such professional like above but I think I did quite a good job if you consider that I actually always suck at drawing hearts lol


 I used following outils to create this look:


  • two layers of p2 670 elegant, waited until fully dry
  • then I draw the hearts on the tips of my nails using the essence nail art duo stylist which is a dotting tool. I used the bigger side! I just dotted the bigger side in a few drops of Catrice's 690 Fred Said Red and then dotted the nailpolish on the end of my nails
  • once that coat dried too I applied my favorite top coat by Seche vite et voilà ^^
Okay, now I have to go and prepare already some stuff for today!


I wish you a nice weekend ;)

P2 Nail Care Oil

Hello again,

Here I am again, blogging. I know it's been some weeks if not a whole month but omg I've been so busy! I was working on a top secret project :) and I also spend 6 days in Mallorca (Spain)! While I was planning on doing posts from there, my laptop wanted to do go on holidays too, he just didn't want to ask me for the username and password of the hotel wifi network I was given.

But nevermind...

Back to my actual post I wanted to talk about my new nails! ^^ I decided to try gel nails out, for the first time. Yes, first time. I was bored of my short broken nails and needed a change. It's been already 2 weeks since I got them in case you were wondering why they are already a bit grown out. The girl who made my nails used at the end a nail care oil by P2 that I thought was pretty good.

P2 hands & nails nail care oil


"Rich nail oil with nurturing almond oil and refreshing lime aroma for intensive care of nails and cuticles. With vitamin E and F."

BEFORE


AFTER

 

I think even a blind can tell there is a huge difference between before and after! :)
It smells good, it's all day lasting and I guess pretty cheap, this little miracle costs about 2,50€.

So if you're living in Germany or close to it like me and you plan a shopping trip, go to DM and pick this up!!!!

Have a nice day!
