March's Nails Challenge- Hop into Spring

Buna dimi dimi !

Nu va scriu prea multe pentru tema de astazi - sunt prea ocupata cu 'lichidarea de stoc" oferita de Kinga.
Oricat de mult ma bucur de ojutele pe care ea le da...imi pare rau ca le da dar o apreciez pentru curaj.
Chiar daca suna foarte foarte ciudat ...eu cred ca nu as putea sa ma despart de dragutele mele.

Sa revenim la ale noastre...cica : primavara, pai atunci ...hai sa flori ! :))

January's Nails Challenge - Inspired by favorite drink

Buna seara!

A mai trecut o saptamana...si am revenit cu o noua manichiura.

Trebuie sa recunosc ca mi-a dat bataie de cap aceasta tema. Bautura mea preferata este "mojito' - oricat am incercat sa reproduc bautara sau sa creez ceva asemanator...nu am reusit. Prin urmare, am apelat la atotputernicul google si am cautat 'cocktail-uri colorate" , si asa mi-am gasit inspiratia : Pina-Colada tini .

Nu o sa va plictisesc cu detalii despre aceasta bautura si o sa va arat ce am facut. Nu sunt multumita de manichiura, am refacut-o de 2 ori ...dar asta este si asta va arat !

Ca sa fac aceasta manichiura am decis sa folosesc culori acrilice si o pensula (cea mai mare greseala)

Din cauza ca nu sunt o mare adepta a ombre-ului nu prea ma pricep sa le fac - nici cu buretele si nici cu pensula dupa cate am aflat.

M-am chinuit enorm sa amestec culorile si tot nu mi-a iesit perfect. De fiecare data cand fac o manichiura de acest gen imi aduc aminte de ce nu imi place sa fac ombre.

Mi-a luat cam o ora sa fac 5 unghii (evident ca nu am facut modelul la ambele maine)
Dupa ce am facut baza am aruncat repede o ciresica , am facut poze si le-am sters.

Sper totusi sa va placa :)

Eu zic sa vedem ce bauturi iubesc fetele :

Abstract black and white nails.

Hello hello!

Did you have a good weekend? I took advantage of it to create a manicure using acrylic paints - I haven't done that in a while.

At first I wanted to do a landscape manicure but I decided to do an abstract design.

This is not a special manicure but I liked it a lot and I had a great time doing it. My inspiration was found on google :

When I saw this picture I was sure this was something I wanted to do.

What do you think?

I wasn't sure how to do this design and then I remembered I had a new brush from BornPrettyStore and decided to try it out.

The brush I used is very very thin and long so you can do very precise straight lines if you want to - i did a few curved ones. (as you can see in the pictures)

It was very easy to make them very very thin - using the acrylic paint also helped a lot since it's a lot easier to paint with them rather than with nail polish.

What I absolutely love about this paint brush is that the handle also acts like a cover, so if you want to take it with you it's easy and the bristle is not damaged.

Even if my inspiration was all black and white I also decided to add some colour!

What do you think? which one do you like it better?

I also decided to use my matte top coat from GoldenRose to make it matte.

What do you use for painting?

If you want this brush, you can get it HERE at a special price if you use my discount code.

Nail Art Marathon - Palm Trees

Morning ladis.

How are you? Are you ready for another manicure done for the Marathon collaboration? Today's theme, PALM TREES, was Oana's idea.
I really want to thank her for proposing this- I had in mind for a long time a palm tree manicure and now I had the perfect opportunity.

Talking about perfect : exactly in the time I had to do this manicure...I received the Concept collection from MoyouNails (you can find the whole collection) which has a perfect plate for what I needed (plate no.307- find it HERE!) and also....my boyfriend, who was visiting me, decided to wear a pair of shorts...which later become my inspiration.

I decided to do palm trees on every nail. (at the end of the blog post I will show you my bf's shorts ...and I am sure the mani will make more sense then)

As you can see, plate no. 307 from MoyouNails has a lot of designs engraved. For this manicure I had to use just the palm trees , but I have to be honest and tell you that I already have a lot of ideas from the designs of this plate. Since summer is coming - I will have a perfect plate for manicures. I am especially excited by the waves!!

The designs on the plate are perfectly engraved and they get transferred from the plate->stamper->nail without any effort!!
The only thing that was a bit tricky about the palms is that I had to fill in a bit with acrylic paint the middle of the tree.

I decided to do a sponged manicure - this is another thing I wanted to do for a long time. I was afraid of "sponging" and I still am, exactly how I am afraid of ombre manicures. I find it very hard to blend-in the colours.
I am actually pretty happy with the sponging on this manicure, even though I know I could have done better.

And this was my inspiration.

NTC- Cartoon

Hello hello.

How are you beauties?

I know I missed a lot from the blog...but I was very busy and I've also been sad because my nails broke :(

Today I want to show you a manicure I did for the NailTeamChallenge. The theme was proposed by a lovely lady Teo- Polka Dots & make-up

Unfortunately, I wasn't able to take some good pics and also wasn't able to post the manicure on time, but I hope you'll like it.

NTC-Inspired by....

NailTeamChallenge : 1. Inspired by...

Buna seara/dimineata dragele mele!

Nici nu s-a incheiat bine colaborarea "toamna-iarna" (haha...e o colectie de manichiuri nu de haine) ca deja am si inceput o noua colaborare.
Eu sunt in grupul "The Polish Addict" de pe facebook...de aproape un an...si pana acum am avut destule colaborari. Cu toate aceastea...cred ca cea care incepe astazi este cea mai ''personala", cea mai apropiata de sufletul nostru daca pot sa spun asa.

De ce? Ei bine...in aceasta colaborare, exista 18 teme (o sa le vedeti intr-un colaj la finalul postarii), teme propuse de fiecare dintre noi.
Dupa cate am observat...majoritatea am propus tema...tehnica/stilul care ne place cel mai mult. (eu am propus french, AndraKat a propus MULT verde iar Madalina watermarble - nu va spun mai mult, vedeti la sfarsit)
Pentru aceasta colaborare, draga mea Andrea a facut un colaj, foarte foarte dragut, care cuprinde atat temele propuse cat si autorii lor.

Bun...ca sa nu lungesc foarte mult postarea(care oricum o sa fie lunga) incep prin a va spune cine a propus minunata tema de azi : mult iubita si indragita mea Oana. Ce a propus ea?
Ei bine...dupa cum se vede si in titlu, tema ei se numeste "Inspired by..." (a existat si o continuare : book, movie) daaar...eu am vrut din suflet sa fac o anumita manichiura...asa ca am largit putin orizonturile.

Acestea fiind spuse...mi-am permis sa interpretez tema pe placul meu si am numit-o " Inspired by your favourite sport team's logo". Da da...probabil ca era mai simplu sa fac ceva dupa un film sau o carte...dar nu am vrut.

Poate ca nu toate stiti ca mie-mi plac sporturile mult, foarte mult. (ma uit la handbal, volei, fotbal..etc) Ce cu siguranta nu stiti...este ca as da 10meciuri de fotbal ca sa vad unul de hochei jucam de echipa brasoveana CORONA WOLVES BRASOV.

Exista foarte multe motive pentru care imi plac...(voi enumera cateva mai jos) si de aceea am ales sa fac o manichiura cu logo-ul lupilor.

Ei..cum vi se pare, asa la prima vedere? Mie-mi place la nebunie stema lor, imnul lor...numele lor.

Ca sa revin la motivele pentru care imi place acest sport: in primul rand timpul de joc EFECTIV este 60min(in momentul in care arbitrul a fluierat- cronometrul s-a oprit. De aceea, cu pauze...de multe ori un meci poate dura si 2 ore), in al doilea rand...jucatorii sunt cu adevarat sportivi (nu am nicio problema cu fotbalistii...dar ei la un cot in gura se tavalesc pe jos 5minute- hocheistii in schimb NU, au primit un cot in gura, dau si ei unul inapoi :)) si apoi continua) si in al treilea rand, sunt cu adevarat devotati echipei, antrenorului si noua, spectatorilor. (Astea ar fi pe scurt cateva din motivele pentru care imi place hochei-ul. O sa mai mentionez asa repede...si faptul ca majoritatea arata foarte bine)

Bun...daca sunteti curioase sa vedeti ce imi place mie..puteti urmari astazi (10.01.2015) un meci al lupilor, sustinut acasa impotriva celor de la Miskolci de la ora 19:45.

Revenind la treburile noastre...o sa va arat manichiura acum.

Am decis sa fac lupul pe inelar(si m-am straduit foarte mult sa il fac cat se poate de detaliat) , un tricou pe mijlociu si in rest un color block in culorile echipei.

"Tricoul" de pe degetul meu..este numarul 33, Patrik Polc, portarul echipei Brasovene. De ce l-am ales pe el?
In primul rand pentru ca este un portar exceptional cu niste reflexe incredibile si in al doilea rand, de dragul manichiurii. Daca alegeam un alt jucator (ex.Hietamachi/ Pysarenko) nu aveam loc pe unghie. (si asa m-am chinuit putin...si tot stramb a iesit).

Sper din suflet ca nu v-am plictisit cu postarea mea kilometrica.

Cred ca este una din postarile lungi pe care le-am scris cu draga inima si cu multa stima, respect si iubire in suflet, pentru sport, pentru echipa dar si pentru minunatul meu oras, Brasov.

(si da, daca sunteti curioase...am si un jucator preferat..dar prefer sa-l pastrez doar pentru mine)


Daca va intereseaza, mai multe detalii despre Corona Wolves Brasov, gasiti pe www.wolves.ro

Eu o sa raman un fan al lor si o sa ma duc cu mare drag la toate meciurile la care o sa pot sa ajung. Din pacate urmatoarele meciuri le pierd...dar poate am noroc in februarie cand voi fi in vacanta.


Acesta este banner-ul acestei colaborari- sper sa va placa temele propuse si sa urmariti cu entuziasm colaborarea pana la capat. Va las si link-urile fetelor care participa, mai jos:
