Pacman Nails
I was thinking about this manicure for months, really, and i am very happy i finally found my muse and inspiration and made it. i really like how it turned out, and i wore this manicure for 2 full days - which is really a lot for me :) This is not like i am a fan of PACMAN or anything, i just think this is very "manicurable", and look creative and bright on the nails. The cashier in walmart complimented my nails with this design .

POLKA DOTS!
These are Birthday nails. I used polar bear art glitter mixed with clear acrylic. The polka dots are from cinapro.com I used a thin coat of acrylic and added the dots then I capped them with clear acrylic. I hope you enjoy your nails Mia!

Revlon Runaway Collection Review
I finally put my hands on this famous product that have been recently showing up really a lot in beauty blogs. This is first time ever that i have got a samples from cosmetic companies for reviews and i am very proud :) However, i promise to be honest and clear with my reviews this time and in the future.
What do i think about faked nails - not even acrylic or gel, but totally plastic and faked?
Well before recently all i could have though about was - who hell would by and wear this stuff :) However Revlon runaway have changed my mind a lot about it. Trying those nails on i realized, that it really could be great one evening solution, if you have an event and don't have time to take better care of your manicure. I would not wear it for a week as Revlon states they can be worn, but you know what? I hardly can make couple days with my own manicure, because i just get tired of the same design.
The other problem that i faced is that tips were still too large for my little nail beds, but this is my own issue, if you have normal size nails, i am sure you ll be able to find the right size tips, since the set comes with nails in a huge variety of size. The really important thing is taking it off, do not even think of pulling it, because it will significantly damage your natural nail. The best way to remove is to put your fingers in acetone and wait about a minute.
I really liked the designs, and i really loved how it looked on my hands, i even went grocery shopping with Revlon nails on, and nails made it just fine.
The only thing i did not like about the set, is the smell of plastic, which is quite strong, and does not go away even after washing hands couple times, but other then that i think it is a useful and interesting product, if you use stuff like this, this probably would be one of the best.
Eye lashes extension is also part of Revlon Runaway collection, but i did not try it yet, i am gonna ask my friend to review it, since she is an expert in false eye lashes
This is my favorite design - it looks so perfect on the nails

French nails with lilac petal flowers
No, this is not for a bride though it looks like it. Customer wants a clean french look, with some flowers and crystals and this is what I gave her.

Stolen Nails :)
Stealing nail design is super addictive - try it once and you can not stop anymore.
I stole a nail design from other gorgeous blogger again ... Its just if i see the design that i like i can not resist, i want to see it on my nails.
I don't know how ethical is this practice, but i mean, when people provide instructions on how to make manicure, don't they wish someone try to make it?
And i always try to post the link on the original author... Lets call ti remake, not stealing :)
So , i have seen those pictures few days ago, and fell in love with this manicure, the minute i sow it, i knew that i must make it. I sure used not exact polishes as in original mani, but got quite close, and i used sponge for gradation too.
So here is the ORIGINAL MANICURE from lovely Charmign Nails blog
And here is my remake. Please let me know what do you think about manicure remakes, do you think it is kind of ok or kind of not cool, to remake others manicures?
