Swatch: Maybelline Fuchsia & Sephora Silver Rain

Hi!
I wanted to use both of these polishes, so why not use them over each other?




Maybelline Fuchsia is a pink fuchsia color with a cream finish.
I used to love this polish and this is my second bottle of it.
But since my collection has expended I hardly use it anymore. 
I used 2 coats.

Over that I used 1 coat of Silver Rain.
It is a clear polish with holographic bar glitter.
It doesn't really spread even, it isn't to bad but you do want to work with it a bit before you get a even coat of glitter.



I hope you liked it.

Teeny Bikini & Teeez Fireworks

Hi!
I love these polish, I think both will look nice on a lot of people.


Teeny Bikini is a blue periwinkle color with a slight purple undertone.
It has tiny silver glitter particles.
I used 2 coats.

Over that I used 1 coat of Fireworks by Teeez.
It is a topcoat with gold, blue and purple glitter.
I love this polish but it is kinda hard to find a base that works nice with it.
Maybe a cobalt or navy blue will look nice?



I hope you liked it.

Stamping Saturday: They Bloody Maid Did It!

Hi!
Here is a nice stamping tutorial for everyone who is going to be a maid for Halloween.
If you aren't going to be a bloody/scary maid you can just skip the blood splatters and have a cute manicure.
What I used:
Base Coat: Konad Base Coat.
Colors: Konad Black, Paris Memories 234, Essie Natural Cotton, Konad Wine Red.
Other Products: Stamping Products, Konad M21, Konad M57, Tape.
Topcoat: Konad Topcoat.






1.Apply your base coat and nude polish.

2.Tape the base of the nail off and make a white french tip.

3.Stamp the fishnet stamp over the white french tip and remove the tape.
Don't remove the tape before you have stamped otherwise the stamp will be all over the nail.

4.Stamp the lace trimming on top of the french tip.

5.Stamp the blood splatter randomly on the nail.
You could use a red stamping polish but I think the wine red looks better.

6.Apply your topcoat.



I hope you liked it.

Crackle It Up: Kiko 359 & Essence Crack Me! Blue

Hi!
This combination is a little bit odd.
The base polish reminds me of spring/summer and the crackle makes me think of winter.



Kiko 359 is a pastel peach color.
It is a bit on the paler side but not too much.
It has a cream finish.
I used 3 coats.

Essence Crack Me! Blue is navy crackle polish.
It has some lighter blue shimmer.
I used 1 coat.

I used 1 coat Essence Gel-Look Topcoat.


I hope you liked it.

Swatch: Sephora Military Jacket & Sephora Gold Fever

Hi!
I had a really good feeling about this combination.
But my feeling let me down, I wasn't really happy with the result.



Military Jacket is a dark green polish with a cream finish.
I used 2 coats.

Gold Fever is a weird polish.
It is a topcoat with large silver hexago glitter and small gold hexago glitter.
But the gold is really soft so it doesn't stand out against the silver, sometimes it even looks like a silver shade.
I would have liked it more if the silver glitter were small and the gold glitter were the larger ones.
I used 1 coat.

I did clean my cuticles really sloppy. I am sorry for that.

I hope you liked it.
