My first ColourPop order

0

So I jumped on to the ColourPop bandwagon that is going strong especially on YouTube and ordered my first pretties. Now it’s safe to say that I’m hooked! I absolutely love the products that I ordered and I can’t wait to get more. I’ve just seen the new Ultra Matte Lip liquid lipsticks and O M G (!!) Matte is my favorite lipstick finish so I’m really, really excited about those. I want all of them now :D So I’ll be placing a new order as soon as those heavenly lip colors are released.

So what was in my first order?

Welcome to my new home!

0

Hi everyone!! The move is finally done and my blog has a new home! Yay!!

 

welcome

 

This is how my blog looks like now and I really love it. My husband did all the design and coding work and I just sat here and made demands :D

You can use the navigation bar to get around and find what you’re looking for. You can also find archives and search from the right side bar. On the “Home” page we have the six latest posts on the top of the page and below those you can find more latest posts. If you don’t know what you’ve read the last just click on the “Select a month” dropdown box on the right side bar and choose what ever month you want to read. We tried to build this site so that it’s easy to navigate. If you’re here just for the nail polish posts. Go to “Nails” on the navigation bar, then nail polish and choose “all”. If you want to see my indie swatches choose “indie polish” under nail polish and so on. Very simple :) All my old posts from Blogger were moved here too.

So welcome again and I really hope you guys like it ♥

Polishers Inc. – Glitter Gradient

0

Hello, hello! I’m coming out from my crazy blog post editing madness (still getting my blog ready for the move) for this lovely Polishers Inc. Sunday. Today’s theme is glitter gradient and instead of doing a regular glitter gradient with polishes I decided to do the gradient using loose glitters instead.

The black base is Essie Licorice and for the glitters I used some cheap eBay glitters (three different colors) and I attached them to my nails using ScraPerfect Best Glue ever. Ohh, you guys, I really need to do a video tutorial of using this glue cos it makes using pigments, foils and loose glitters so much easier and FUN!

Matching Nails & Makeup – My Mother’s Day Look

0

It’s been a while since I did a “Matching Nails & Makeup” post so here we go. I did this look for Mother’s Day. I started by wanting to do neutral/nude eyes and bright red lipstick and nails and ended up with something else. I remembered my new e.l.f. Disney Elsa palette and wanted to use that. I also had to use fake lashes again cos it’s the pollen season. I’ve been having such bad allergies and I’ve been rubbing my eyes (it’s not a smart thing to do, I know) so hard I’ve lost some lashes too.

Polishers Inc. – What’s On TV?

3

This Sunday’s Polishers Inc. theme was “What’s On TV?” and that means this manicure is inspired by a TV show.

I had a hard time deciding what to do. I was thinking about shows like Game Of Thrones and The Walking Dead. In the end I decided to go with a show that me and hubby are currently watching and enjoying, Big Bang Theory. It’s just so funny and puts me in a good mood every time. Sheldon is such a brilliant character and in real life Jim Parsons is a fellow Houston Texans fan! (more…)

IsaDora Eye Color Bar – 62 Surf & Sun (Summer 2015)

6

I got to see IsaDora Beach Club Summer 2015 collection in a PR-event a couple of weeks ago and it was such an awesome, colorful collection. I immediately fell in love with the Surf & Sun eyeshadow palette….and a few other products.

This palette has such great colors. These feel very smooth and velvet-y. They are not crazy pigmented so there’s no risk of ending up looking like a clown using this but you can definitely get that fresh pop of color. Using a creamy eyeshadow as a base will bring the colors out quite nicely too. (more…)

piCture pOlish – Sizzle

18

Hello, hello! I have a new favorite hot pink! Holy crap this polish is awesome!

piCture pOlish Sizzle by Cosmetic Sanctuary is just amazing in every way. The color is in your face bright hot pink and the formula is just perfection. I mean this practically applied itself.  Opaque with two coats and quick dry time. This also has a very subtle scattered holo effect that is only visible in direct sunlight.

It doesn’t get any better than this! (more…)
