Ice Cream

Bei dem schönen Wetter der letzten Tage musste etwas sommerliches auf die Nägel! Inspiriert von einem Tutorial von coewless hab ich das Eiswaffelmuster gemalt und darüber verschiedene Eis Kleckse gepinselt. Darauf hin wurde die Waffel mattiert und das Eis glänzend gelassen, das erkennt man aber nicht wirklich auf den Fotos. Mir gefielen die Nägel ganz gut, allerdings musste ich mir anhören dass ich "Kindergärtnerinnen Nägel" hätte. Aber so ist das nunmal bei nicht Nagellack affinen Männern :D
Leider kann ich nicht alle Farben aufzählen die ich benutzt habe, aber falls euch eine bestimmte interessiert, such ich sie gerne raus!

Candycane Stripes

Hey!
To get with the Christmas-y feel, I did a candycane mani. The lines are a little wonky but I freehanded them and regular candy canes aren't perfect either. The red is "Thanks so Muchness" from the age old Alice in Wonderland collection by OPI. It is my go-to Christmas red.
My nails are still short but at least I managed to get them into shape again. If anybody has some tips for serums or creams that actually work for growing your nails longer, please tell me!

Nikolaus Gifts

Hello!
I'm back (sort of). I have been really busy and on top of that caught the flu which prevented me from posting anything on here. But as it is now getting closer to christmas, I will not be lacking nail art ideas for the next few weeks :)
I wanted to show you what my lovely boyfriend gave me for "Nikolaus" on the 6th of December. These two delicious chocolate bars and 4 (!) nailpolishes. Not the colours I would usually go for but that makes it all the better.

The colours are Astor Fashion Studio "Acid Drop", "Cotton Candy", "Mint Candy" and a coral which doesn't have a name.

Betsey Johnson -esque Polkadots and Roses

Hello!
Today I have a Betsey Johnson inspired polkadot and rose mani to show you. I used a dotting tool and a small pin to create the roses and the base colour is the same as in the teal and gold post. I think it looks really cute but my topcoat sadly smeared the design a little.

Teal and gold glitter

Hello!
This is a manicure I did a while ago with the glitter polish from Essence's Snow White limited edition. It's called "The Huntsman" and has lots of different sized gold glitter and a few flakies in it. Many people seem to have disliked the flakies in it but I actually quite like them!

Sadly the glitter topcoat changed the colour underneath into a more greenish tone but it reminds me of the sea somehow. On the second picture you can see the flakies very nicely.

Polishes I used:
Essence - The Huntsman
Astor Quick&Go - Teal
