What I did today :D

Hello everybody!
My mom came today, to stay for a few days, while I deal with some paperwork and stuff for the university and she brought me some cool stuff :D Of course she brought me some polishes and there were 3, I´m very excited to try - the new crackle polishes from P2 :D Such beautiful colors!

Picture is from here

Aaand I got a Helmer ! Yeey! Finally I can put my nail stuff and my polishes all together :D And it´s so organized....ah, I love it :D

BEFORE                                                                                                    AFTER

I didn´t fill it completely, so there is still room for more polishes ;) I really loved, how easy it was to assemble the whole thing. Good job, IKEA ;) I will get me 2 more HELMER´s to put all my other beauty stuff in it :) 

Do you guys own a HELMER ? Or maybe 2 or 3? :P How do you like it ? 

Have a nice evening and see ya tomorrow with a tutorial! *muah* 

Reader´s Choice: Catrice - Just Married

Hello my lovelies! :)
As always, I asked you yesterday for a number, and the first comment was from Elizedge, and she chose number 17! On my list, that´s Catrice - Just married! Thank you! I really love this color and I´m so mad at Catrice, that they discontinued this shade and many others, just to replace it with other ones, under the same number and name. Come on! Couldn´t they at least take other names for the new polishes ?! Anyways, I swatched this color -->here<--. I wanted to add something to it, and I was very clueless, til I saw my dotting tool laying around on my desk :P So I added some silver dots, and I must say: I really like the combination of this colors! The silver polish I used is S-he 471.

Simple but cute! Hope you like it ;)
Good night and see ya next time ! :-*

Today´s Swatch: P2 - Soulful + New "Tattoo" + Tuesday´s Poll

Hey everybody!
How are you all doing? I hope good ;) I wanna show you my favorite brown polish today. It´s from P2 and it´s called Soulful. It´s the perfect brown creme, application is flawless and once you have it on your nails, it looks like chocolate ...yummy ;) I used 2 coats:

 Indoors it looks very dark, almost black. I tried to catch the real color using the flashlight, so the second picture is the most color accurate.

 I just love this glossy finish! The third picture shows you, how the polish would look in sunlight. Since there was no sun when I took the photos, I had to improvise with the flash and my bureau-lamp.

I also was very, very  bored yesterday, that´s why I drew another "tattoo" on my left arm/hand. It was inspired by a Henna-design I saw on the internet.

I will looking for some Henna now, that way next time I´m bored and I draw a tattoo, it will last longer ;)


Also, which number do you choose this time? Yes, it´s Tuesday and it´s up to you which polish I wear tomorrow ;) Leave me a comment with a number (between 1 and 204), first one counts ;)

Thanks for reading, see ya ! :-*

Nail Art Tutorial: Abstract Squares

Hello everybody!
Man, I´m bad at finding names for my designs :D Anyway, here is another tutorial for you guys, and it´s very simple ;) I started off with 2 coats of Flormar - 50, a really gorgeous metallic green. It´s so hard to catch the color in the photos, I think I took over 30 pics and not one was even near color accurate. So I just edited one of them, and here it is:

It´s beautiful! And the application was a dream :) I could have used just one coat to make it opaque, but I wanted to be sure ;) In the next pictures I didn´t edit the color, cause it was to time-consuming. Huge difference, isn´t it ?

First step: Take a small Nail Art Brush and a color of your choice and draw some lines and squares. Do different sizes, so it seems more random. Now let it dry a bit and in the meantime you can choose another color to work with :)

Clean your brush or take another one, and do the same thing you did before, with your second color. Overlap the lines you did before and draw new squares, it´s up to you how many. Now if you overlapped some lines more than once, you can take your first color again - here it´s the black - and paint over the white line, so that it seems a little bit 3D. I did this on my ring finger, at the tip, but it´s not very visible. Does any of this explanation make sense to you ? I hope so :P Once your done, let it dry for a minute and finish your manicure with a TC. 

I hope this tutorial was helpful and let me know what you think about it ;) 

Thanks for reading and see ya next time! :-*
