It’s still winter here in Finland and I can’t wait for spring to get here. I always get so much energy from spring. Days will be longer and there’s more sunlight. So now I also felt like using some bright colors on my nails too.

Blue Essies for winter with a hint of gold
There’s still a good amount of snow on the ground here in Finland so it’s a perfect time of the year to wear blue polishes. I just always associate blue polish with winter. I did another very quick and easy nail art thingy too. That’s all I have time for nowadays. My youngest one is a real life human tornado and when he is up it is completely impossible for me to do my nails. So quick and easy manis it is :)

Dots and stripes – Quick and easy nail art
So now that the nail growing project is fully started and I have my natural nails back I also have to get used to the short length. This is quite a change from the long pointy gel nails I had. I usually hate this part with short and thin nails and don’t want to even take nail photos. This time I have decided to enjoy these nubbins and do some nail art too.

Back to natural nails 2016 – Nail growing project begins once again
So here we are again with yet another nail growing project. I just got tired of fixing the gel layover and I simply miss the feeling of natural nails. I filed all the length off my nails so I can get used to these nubbins and I still have the gel layover on them, for now. Next weekend I’m going to remove all the gel and I’m going for my first ever IBX treatment on Monday, a week from now.

piCture pOlish – Mad Magenta
This polish is one of my absolute favorites. piCture pOlish Mad Magenta is a very vivid magenta creme that really gets peoples attention. I’ve got more compliments for this simple manicure IRL than anything else for quite a while.

White and red polka dots
So we are back to square nails. I’ll miss the claws but I just have no time to maintain them right now so I’m taking the easy way out. I actually made these longer at first and then, probably for the first time in my life I thought “hmm, I want my nails to be shorter” :D so I filed some more length off and here we are.

Pink and bling nails
Hello, hello, hello! (I’ve been binge watching RuPaul’s Drag Race while being sick with kidney infection and that thing is no joke, let me tell you that). Since I was feeling too sick to even open my laptop for several days it’s taken me much longer than I planned to post these nails. I already showed you this design on my IG though. So here are the details of what I used for this manicure.

Black, white and gold color block nails
Here’s the second one of the November manis that never made it to the blog. These nails looked stunning IRL. Definitely something I gotta do again. Maybe using some spring colors next time.

Purple holo gradient
I have two manicures all the way from November that I never posted here. Those have been seen on my social media but not on my blog so today I’ll show first one of the two.

Starting the new year with vampy claws
End of the year was so busy for me that I didn’t get to even do my nails. I was running around with nekkid nails most of the December. I also fixed the gel layover on my left hand nails twice and never had time to do the right hand. Pathetic! Right before New Year’s Eve I decided that enough is enough and I refuse to welcome the new year with horrible nails. So I finally managed to reshape my nails and fill in the UV-gel layover. I painted them just couple of hours before midnight. So obviously I stayed at home and took it easy New Year’s Eve :P
