Essence Iced Mint Frappé + Stickers!

Hey there, beautiful people! 
I have a cute summery manicure for you today :) I used a polish I just got recently from my mom and it's Essence - Iced Mint Frappé (oh my, that sounds so delicious :D) from their 
"Show your feet" line. 
Now these polishes are actually toe polishes because they are, and I quote: "anti-bacterial, extremely long-lasting and great coverage with just one coat!" Nonetheless you can use it for your finger nails as well :)
It's true that it covers in just 1 coat but you have to be very careful with the application in that case. Because the formula is a bit thick I decided to do 2 thin coats to be on the safe side. It's shiny on it's own, but I added a coat of TC, because I had to cover the Nail Stickers I used. :)
Aren't they pretty?? It's a little silver flower with a pink rhinestone in the middle! I put one on my ring finger and one on my thumb. I love how cute it looks ;) 
 Mint color is one of my favorite summer colors ever! It looks so good, especially when you're a bit tanned :D Mint is also my favorite ice-cream flavor :P 

So, what's your favorite summer color? And what about your favorite ice-cream? ;)

Blogger Appreciation Award

Hey!
Because of a little accident that happened today I can't post my nails, so I thought I could catch up on my award posts! I got this one from the lovely Laura from Clothes, Cosmetics and Chat! Thank you so, so much Laura!! I can't "officially" tag you back with this one, but you absolutely deserve it! 
1.) Thank the person who gave you the award with their blog link on your post.
2.) Answer the following 4 questions.
3.) Award the Blogger Appreciation Award to as many readers/supporters/followers as you want
4.) Let the blogger know you've just awarded them!

The questions (and my answers):
1. How long have you been blogging ? 
For a little bit more than a year now and I love it !
2. What are 1-2 reasons why you started blogging ? 
I had to think about that for a few minutes :P Mainly because I wanted to share my hobby with other people that are as crazy about nail polish as I am and because I thought I could improve my skills in Nail Art and even Nail Care. And as it turned out I learned a lot and I get a lot of inspiration and new knowledge about nail related things from other bloggers, so that's great :)
3. What types of blogs do you like to follow/read ?  
Anything that has to do something with nail polish of course! :D I love Nail Art blogs but also fashion and make-up related ones. ;)
4. What is one thing you'd like to improve on as a blogger/on your blog ? 
Nail Care, always! I have still a lot to learn in that department :P You can also never stop improving your photos! One of the most important things on a blog, right? I would also like to improve my posting frequency .. I really have to get used to schedule posts, when I know I won't have time for posting.

I appreciate many bloggers and I really don't know who already got it and who didn't but I tag these gorgeous and talented ladies:
- XOXO Alexis Leigh
Cuti-CLUE-les
Kaki @ Glitter Obsession
Ivana @ Ivana Thinks Pink
Taya

I have to stop writing now, because I type only with the right hand and it takes forever! :/

See ya, my lovelies! *muah*
