Saturday's Theme- 2. Pantone Colours

Hello hello !

I will begin today's post by saying I can't believe I am doing this....I haven't posted anything in more than half an year (shame on me) and probably wouldn't have if it weren't for my dearest friend Oana who practically pushed me to do it.

A couple of days ago I posted on Instagram the nail polish I will use for my next manicure...the coincidence was that the TPA group  had planned a "green" theme for today's post, so, here I am with the green manicure.



As you may already know, this year's colour is green - GREENERY- as set by Pantone every year.

Before showing you my manicure, I need to mention that fate played a hard game today and made me choose the same nail polish as another great blogger, Andra - see how she wore the same colour Here (the matte version)


I love Pantone's choice for this year's colour(s) - i think it's a great tribute to nature.

To be honest, green is not my colour when it comes to nails or clothes but I love nature so that's enough reason to have it on.

For today's manicure I used "Waikiki" by Barry M.

I used 3 coats for complete coverage, coats that have dried very quickly (yay) and I topped that with a glossy top coat even if the nail polish is matte.


Here it is : Greenery .



I hope this won't be my first and last blog post of the year :)

March's Nails Challenge- Pastel

Hello! 

Today is Saturday again ...so we have another manicure for the monthly challenge : PASTEL . 

I really liked the idea...until I had to choose the nail polishes for this and I realized I don't have a lot of pastel shades, and, since I don't have that many I decided to combine them all in one manicure. 

Here it is : 




I have to admit that doing this manicure took some time but I am really happy with the end result - what's better than a colourful mani ? 
Even if I wanted to make this manicure with only one brand of nail polish I couldn't have done it. I think this is the first time ever when I use so many colours and also brands in one manicure. 



My inspiration was this colourful cake. Let's see what inspired the other talented ladies :

    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.

    Sarbatori aurite #1 - alaturi de Golden Rose




    Neata neata!

    Prima posta din luna Decembrie....si deja va arat un model pentru iarna/Craciun. Am ales ca si anul trecut sa nu folosesc culorile clasice (verde/rosu) pentru aceasta manichiura, ci am ales o combatie simpla dar sclipitoare - negru alaturi de auriu.

    Cei de la GoldenRose mi-au propus o colaborare pentru iarna...asa ca, am ridicat repede repede produsele si m-am pus pe treaba.

    Nu este o manichiura clasica de Craciun dar cred ca, datorita studs-urilor folosite se asemana cu decorul din brad.

    Sper sa va placa!

    What is love? - MoyouNails

    Hello darlings.

    Today I am going to show you another manicure- one I did this morning.

    As you already know....I recently received the new MoyouNails- Concept Collection to review, and today I have a new plate to show to you.

    Today I will show you plate no. 306
    You can find the whole collection HERE!! at a special price and with 2 nail polishes as a gift. 

    For today's manicure I decided to do a pink base and stamp the little Cupid with white and stamp the word "love" with a darker pink.
    This plate is simply perfect for a lovely manicure and of corse for Valentine's Day!
    Since I believe that you have to show how much you love your SO everuday....I believe that you can use designs from this plate any day of the year.
    As I said before, I was never disappointed by a plate from MoyouNails- I still can say that. Every design from this plate transfers perfectly on the stamper and on the nail.
    You can find this plate HERE!!





    To be able to do this manicure I had to make DIY decals- it took sometimes but I got the little Cupid exactly where I wanted him to be.
