Christmas Manicure.

Gisteren was een lekker rustige dag op de bank met slechte kerstfilms maar vandaag vieren we kerst met mijn schoonfamilie en dit zijn mijn nagels voor het diner.
Ik wilde alleen Absinthe Makes The Heart dragen maar na vier laagjes was hij nog niet dekkend dus toen heb ik er wat Konad tegenaan gegooid.

English: Yesterday we had a nice quiet day on the couch watching corny Christmas movies but today we are celebrating Christmas with my in-laws and these are my nails for the dinner. I planned on only wearing Absinthe Makes The Heart but after four coats it still wasn't opaque so I decided to konad it.

In the sun:

Please enlarge to see the multicoloured shimmer.

In the shade:

Sephora by OPI Absinthe Makes The Heart met plate M73 en China Glaze Metallic Muse.
AMTH is een rokerige donkergroen met fijne meerkleurige shimmer. Hij lakt erg prettig maar dekt niet super. Ik denk dat ik hem binnenkort eens over een andere kleur ga proberen. Erg mooie kleur!
MM is een van de lakken uit de Khromes Collection en is een zeegroene chrome en net als de andere chromes in de collectie heel erg geschikt voor Konad.
Dat is het voor vandaag! Ik ga naar mijn schoonouders!

English: Sephora by OPI Absinthe Makes The Heart with plate M73 and China Glaze Metallic Muse. AMTH is a smoky dark green multicoloured fine shimmer. Application is good but it isn't very opaque. I think I'm going to try it over another polish soon. Very nice colour! MM is one of the polishes from the Khromes Collection and it's a sea foam green chrome and like the other chromes in the collection very suitable for Konad.
That's it for today! I'm off to my parents in law!

Bridal, Pink, Festive

Sorry! Been real busy lately and thus the lack of updates. Been doing lots of bridal nails, and of cos some festive sets and lastly my regular customers. For now, 3 sets of nail pics!


This is a set of bridal nails I did. Bride saw some of the frilly nails I did and said she'd love to have that and ribbons on her nails. And there, this design is created.


This is done on acrylic extension. Lovely frills with pink AB and clear crystals. Pink AB crystals are so sweet and sparkly in real life.


Lastly, her thumbs. :D


This is done on one of my regular customer. Initially she chose one of the design from Nail Max, then saw another, then combined all she likes into a set of nails. Pink, glittery, hearts, roses and ribbons. All in one set! :) This is done in acrylic as well.


Her thumbs. Overloaded. But we love it! Love the pink stripey hearts!


Ok, a set of sweet and simple gel extension.
Light pink glitter tips, round pink disco ball (remember the Disco Ball nails I did?) flakes, and some holo flakes embedded. Actually, the pink disco ball flakes look very glossy and pinkish at different angles. It's really bad that pics don't show.

Will post more next week. Night night!

Merry Christmas! And a Konad Fail...

It is the morning of Christmas and all through the house, not a creature is stirring, not even a mouse...

Heerlijk! Gisteren in mijn schoonzusje hier geweest om vast wat voorbereidingen te doen voor het kerstdiner. Samen koken koken is gezellig maar ik kan er niet zo goed tegen als er andere mensen in mijn keuken staan en dingen anders doen dan ik ze zou doen. Ik geef het toe, met sommige dingen ben ik een culi snob! Gelukkig hadden we een fles wijn om ons gezelschap te houden tijdens het koken. Dat zou gelijk kunnen verklaren waarom ik vanmorgen wakker werd met dit op mijn nagels...

English:; I love this! Yesterday my sister-in-law was here to help with the preparations for the Christmas dinner. It's fun cooking together but I can't really stand it when other people are in my kitchen doing things differently than I would do them. I'll admit it, sometimes I am a cilinairy snob! Thank goodness we had a bottle of wine keeping us company while cooking.
That could also explain why I woke up this morning with this on my nails...

Echt, het zag er veel beter uit met een halve fles wijn op!
Dit is Zoya Isla met Konad plate M12 en de witte special polish en een mutsje om het korstje op mijn ringvinger te verbergen. Ik was het zat om er naar te kijken. lol

English: I swear it looked much better after half a bottle of wine!
This is Zoya Isla with Konad plate M12 and special polish in white and a little hat to cover the scab on my ringfinger. I was tired of looking at it. lol

Ik ga nu lekker een brunch in elkaar klussen en dan zet ik het stoofvlees voor het kerstdiner van morgen op. Wij blijven lekker thuis vandaag en gaan op de bank slechte kerstfilms kijken.
Morgen begint het echte werk!
Fijne kerstdagen!

English: And now I'm going to make brunch and put on the stew for the Christmas dinner tomorrow. We are spending the day at home today hanging out on the couch watching corny Christmas movies. Tomorrow it's the real deal!
Merry Christmas!
