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 :

March's Nails Challenge- Vintage

Buna dimi fete dragi !

Postarea de astazi ii este dedicata unei fete foarte dragi mie Andrea!

In acelasi timp, vreau sa imi cer scuze fata de ea, pentru ca am facut aceasta postare atat de tarziu.

Acum...mult timp (cam jumatate de an) am primit de la ea un cadou foarte frumos pentru care nu am apucat sa ii multumesc cum se cuvine.

Din aceasta cauza, manichiura pe care am facut-o pentru aceasta tema este realizata (aproape) in totalitate cu ojele primite de la Andrea.

Si nu doar atat . Stiu cat de mult ii place sa se inspire din rochii/fuste/tinute in general, atunci cand realizeaza unele modele...asa ca m-am hotarat ca inspiratia mea sa fie tot o fusta.

Sper din suflet sa iti placa ,si, iti multumesc din suflet inca o data pentru cadou - stiu ca e cam tarziu dar sper sa ma intelegi.

ps : doar pentru ca nu am facut pana acum o postare in special dedicata ei, asta nu inseamna ca nu am folosit ojele de la ea. :P

In ceea ce priveste tema...VINTAGE, am ales o simpla fusta care mie imi striga vintage si am incercat sa o "mut" pe unghii,

 Nici nu imi vine sa va spun cat m-am chinuit cu aceasta manichiura. Initial am vrut sa folosesc striping tape ...dar am renuntat si le-am facut cu pensula.
Am zis ca nu se mai termina.
Eu consider ca a meritat efortul. Voi ce parere aveti?

Inspiratia mea :

February's Nails Challenge-Valentine

Hello hello.

"Tema mea preferata" - am decis sa incetez sa mai spun lucruri "urate" despre aceasta sarbatoare sau ce e ea, ca sa nu imi sara lumea in cap. 

Asa ca ...va arat pozele cu manichiura si gata.
(manichiura care nu imi place si ma enerveaza si cum au iesit pozele) 

Manichiura cred ca o am pregatita de vreo 2-3 saptamani hehe.

January's Nails Challenge - Ice or silver nails

Morning lovelies!

Second Saturday, second challenge....and that's how we'll find ourselves in December 2016, at the end of this challenge - time really flies.

For this week's challenge we had to choose between  ice or silver nails - I decided to go with silver this time.

This manicure was a good occasion for me to use my BornPrettyStore Vinyls.  I absolutely love the way they look and I decided to use them in a different way they are usually used.
Even if the vinyls are fish scale- like , i think they can be used in the winter too.

I have to admit I ruined 3 or 4 stickers before deciding what to do with them.
For this manicure I decided to stick the vinyls on my nails and cut the edges, instead of putting nail polish over and removing the vinyl.

Golden Rose care&strong nr. 171

Flormar 392 Holographic silver

My new top coat from RimmelLondon

The vinyl are absolutely gorgeous- they have an amazing holographic shine and they stick very well to the nail. So if you want to put them one, add nailpolish and then remove them, make sure your base colour is perfectly dried.

If you want to buy these nail vinyls you can find them HERE and you can also usse my discount code.

Bornprettystore- stamper,stamping plate and stamping nail polish review

Bornprettystore all over the place!

As you already know ... BornPrettyStore is the first company I started working with when I started my blog...and I am still doing that.

Writing on my blog for them is one of my biggest pleasures...but even better is when I open the package - I am like a kid open a present.

Today I have for you 3 products in the review : a stamper, stamping plate and a special stamping nail polish.


I will start with the stamping plate BP-L020 !- You can find it HERE. 

I've told you a million times my opinion about their stamping plates- and from all of them there was only one who was horrible (you can't even find in anymore on the site) what I wanted to highlight is that this plate is not from that category!

I could describe this plate with one word : PERFECT!

The designs are perfectly engraved, the size of the designs are good for long nails too (i reviewed the plate when I had short nails but I saw the difference between this plate and another).

On this plate you can find 14 (big) and 7(small) lace designs- these are perfect for elegant manicures. I would say this is a perfect plate for bridal designs.

This is a close up of the design I used for today's manicure.

BornPrettyStore stamper! Find HERE

This is one of the most gorgeous stampers I've ever used. I know calling a stamper "gorgeous" is not the best  thing , because usually when you overly "beautify' an object it means that the functions it has, don't really work - but here is not the case!

The look of the stamper complements it's functionality - this is the perfect combination between useful and fancy.

This is the most squishy stamper I ever had!!! OMG - "it's so squishy I wanna die" (related to Despicable Me)
Even if the stamper is just ~2.5cm diameter it can pick up large images and perfectly transfer them on the nail.


























Before using the stamper I had to file the surface down a bit because it was very sticky, but then it worked perfectly!
I've never been so happy about a stamper!  I will probably buy another one like this but bigger- it's pretty amazing.
There is only problem I have with it ...is that it gets stains. I was not able to properly clean it after using it -  I will try cleaning it better, but for the record the stains don't affect the quality of the stamper.

BornPrettyStore special stamping nail polish - Find HERE.

Well...this is the last product I will talk about today...and this is going to be a simple one.
I've used some special stamping nail polish since I started my blog and I have had different experience with them - good and bad!
This one is  from the good category - I have to be honest and tell you that I wasn't expecting this nail polish to work this good but it did and that's what matter.
The nail polish is not thick nor thin , it's just like a normal nail polish but it's very opaque and it also dried not fast-nor hard, so you have enough time to get it from the plate to the stamper and onto the nail.

I haven't tried it yet for homemade decals but I will and I will tell you how it is.

I will add some photos of the manicure I did for this review too - hopefully you'll like it!

Have a good day.

Octombrie roz!

Buna ziua dragelor !

Astazi va arat pe blog o manichiura roz - roz pentru lupta impotriva cancerului la san.

Anul trecut a fost prima data cand am facut o manichiura si o postare pe blog special pentru a sprijini aceasta lupa - postarea de anul trecut o gasiti AICI.

De aceasta data nu o sa fac o postare la fel de lunga si complexa ci doar o sa va arat manichiura! Sper sa va placa.

Ca si anul trecut, o sa dedic manichiura mea  unei colege din blogosfera, o persoana foarte draga mea Andrea.  - puszi :*

Rimmel London - Rita Ora Super Shine swatch

Hello darlings.

Today I want to show you 4 swatches for some beautiful Rimmel London Rita Ora Super Shine.

I showed you Peachella from the same collection HERE....today I will show you more.

Today I will show you these 4 colours - but first lets see the whole collection.

The Rita Ora Super Shine collection has 12 bottles,gorgeous colours!
Each bottle has 8ml.
What they say about this collection :

· 3 IN 1 TECHNOLOGY FOR UP TO 10 DAYS WEAR

· HIGH IMPACT COLOUR FOR ULTRA-SHINY FINISH

· ONE STROKE, PRECISE APPLICATION

What I say about this collection : 
- I wore the nail polish 4 days on my nails before it started to look bad. I have to say that I didn't use any topcoat, just my usual basecoat.
- As you'll see in the pictures, they are very very shinny
-The brush is perfect for a one-stroke apply, but they all need 2 coats for the perfect look.
- Bonus : I love the little flowers on the handles- they are very girly and cute!

GOWILD-ER-NESS

Artificial light.

This picture reflects the true colour of the nails polish and the shine it has!

GLASTON-BERRY

I fell in love with this colour because it's exactly the same shade as one of my first nail polishes I ever bought. The polish I am talking about is long gone...and unfortunately I haven't been able to replace it. Now, this one is my new baby. (it won't replace that one though)
This nail polish looks amazing in one coat - but I used 2 as always.

BESTIVAL BLUE

PORT-ALOO-BLUE

This is a great teal...the only thing I have to tell you about it ...is that it stains a bit when cleaning it up. I always use a basecoat- so you should too.

I love every single one of them!! They are gorgeous colours with a beautiful shine.
