Misa Dirty Sexy Money is een lichte 'dusty' teal / turquoise uit de Living On The Fast Lane Collectie. Dekkend in twee laagjes en geweldige applicatie. Ik voorzie een mooie toekomst voor mij en Misa!

Op mijn ringvinger heb ik P2 Dangerous. Kan je geloven dat dit juweeltje maar €1,55 kost bij de DM-Drogeriemarkt in Duitsland?! De kwaliteit van deze lak is bijzonder goed en ze hebben erg goede kleuren. Dangerous is een donkere teal, dekkend in twee laagjes.
Hij is donkerder dan Diamond Cosmetics Don't Teal My Heart Away maar lang niet zo donker als Rescue Beauty Lounge Teal dus als je op zoek bent naar een dupe moet je nog even verder zoeken. Sorry. :(

English: Misa Dirty Sexy Money is a light dusty teal / turquoise from the Living On The Fast Lane Collection. Opaque in two coats and wonderful application. I foresee a beautiful future between me and Misa!

On my ringfinger I'm wearing P2 Dangerous. Can you believe this gem retails for only €1,55 at the DM-Drogeriemarkt in Germany?! The quality of this polish is excelent and they have a very good colour selection. Dangerous is a dark teal and opaque in two coats.
It's darker than Diamond Cosmetics Don't Teal My Heart Away but nowhere near as dark as Rescue Beauty Lounge Teal so if you are looking for a dupe, this isn't it. Sorry. :(


Offtopic:

Ik heb zaterdag een playdate met een aantal dames uit het nagellaktopic op FOK! en van de nailboard van MakeUpAlley. Heb er enorm veel zin in! We beginnen 's middags, gaan samen eten en zien dan wel hoe laat het wordt. Morgen ga ik een enorme pan bolognesesaus maken voor het avondeten. Fles rode wijn, brood en salades en dan zijn we er helemaal klaar voor!
Nu nog bedenken wat ik met mijn nagels ga doen...

En nog meer nieuws: er staat vandaag een gast post van mij over handverzorging op The Nail Farm, de blog van mijn vriendin Thess. Neem een kijkje en volg haar blog want ze heeft belachelijk goede nail-art skills en heel veel kennis over nagels!

English: I have a play date this Saturday with a couple of ladies from the nail polish topic on FOK! and from the nailboard on MakeUpAlley. I'm really looking forward to it! We're starting in the afternoon, will be having dinner together and then we'll see what time we are done. Tomorrow I'm making a huge pan of bolognese sauce for the dinner. Bottle of red whine, bread and salads and we are set!
Now I just have to figure out what to do with my nails...

And more news: there will be a guest post of mine about hand care on The Nail Farm, a blog owned by my friend Thess. Check it out and follow her blog because she has crazy mad nail-art skills and a lot of knowledge about nails!

Wat een geweldige lak! En zo moeilijk te fotograferen! Als ik naar mijn nagels kijk zie ik beide kleuren duidelijk op iedere nagel maar dat kreeg ik onmogelijk op de foto dus jullie zullen het hier mee moeten doen. Dit is drie dunne laagjes met base- en topcoat.

Wist je dat Mr. Abrahamian die de kleuren van Nubar creƫert, uit de autolakindustrie komt? The Nailphile heeft eens een artikel over hem geschreven. (Ik mis haar blog zo erg!) Ik ben blij dat hij nagellak is gaan maken! Maar Mr. Abrahamian, als u uw oude contacten nog heeft, wilt u ze dan vertellen dat ik een teal holografische auto nodig heb?

Er is niets meer te zeggen. Deze moet je hebben. Klaar.


English: What an awesome polish! And so hard to capture on camera! When I look at my nails I can see both colours very clearly but I couldn't get that on camera so this will have to do.
This is three coats with base and topcoat.

Did you know that Mr. Abrahamian who creates the colours for Nubar used to be in the carpaint industry? The Nailphile made an article about him once. (I miss her blog so much!) m glad he went in to nailpolish! But Mr. Abrahamian, if you still have your old contacts, would you please tell them I need a teal holographic car?

There is nothing left to say. You need this polish. The end.

ICY Manicure

I seriousely love this manicure, actually wore it for few last days, turned out really great.
I used some chipped blue film that i got from Sally Beauty, for the icy effect. The chips are more for acrylic or gel nail, and it was pretty big chips, so i had to cut it smaller.
I try to come up with more Christmas manicures, but my head is really to busy right now with school stuff as it is end of the semester ,so still can not get any holidays spirit.





Here is left hand, forgot tu put the glitter coat

Comparison: Zoya Ciara vs Essence Hot Stuff

Ik was gisteravond wat nieuwe lakjes aan het swatchen en Zoya Ciara kwam me erg bekend voor. Dat bleek te kloppen want ze lijkt in het flesje erg op Essence Hot Stuff!

English: I was swatching some new polishes last night and Zoya Ciara looked very familiar. I was right because in the bottle she looks a lot like Essence Hot Stuff!

Zoya Ciara,Essence Hot Stuff,Comparison

Zoya Ciara op mijn middelvinger en pink. Essence Hot Stuff op wijsvinger en ringvinger. Beide zijn twee laagjes en beide hadden nog wel een laagje kunnen gebruiken tenzij je wat dikkere laagjes lakt dan ik.

English: Zoya Ciara on middle finger and pinkie. Essence on index and ring finger. Both are two coats and both could have used a third unless your coats are thicker than mine.

Beide zijn berry kleurige paarsen maar Hot Stuff is lichter en warmer van kleur. Naast Ciara is ze bijna roze te noemen. Applicatie van beide was goed maar ik heb een voorkeur voor platte bredere kwastjes dus Essence scoort hier een puntje meer bij mij. Zoals je ziet zijn het geen dupes.


English: Both are berry toned purples but Hot Stuff is lighter and warmer. Next to Ciara she's almost pink. Application on both was good but I prefer flat, wider brushes so Essence scores one point extra for me. As you can see they are not dupes.

Happy painting!

Gel marbellising - pink, white, silver


And there! Did this set of gel marbellising nails last night. Can't wait to share this with you guys!
And this is gel overlay on her natural nails cos her nail bed is so long and pretty!


I guess some of you would have lots of question marks in your head on how this marbellising nails are created. I don't know how to put them into words, but they're really interesting! And yes, they are all done using gel colours. :)

That's all for today!
