Juicy Strawberries, my BM contest entry!

Hi everyone,

Today I'll show you my strawberry nails. I made this for the Bundle Monster contest. I know it is one of Konad's famous poster/advertising creations...I thought it would be fun to make it with BM plates... a bit of rivalry ;)

The base is P2 Ship Ahoi! 010 Pure White, with a layer of Catrice Million Styles topcoat 08 Have an icy day (it's almost a dupe of China Glaze Fairy Dust) for the holographic glitter effect. Stamped with SN red and green and image plate BM05. The tips are sponged.

Voting is now open and I would really love it if you would vote for me, you can vote on as many entries as you like one time a day for the next 7 days.

It's a Starry....10 to Midnight (Glitter Gal)

A couple of months ago Glitter Gal organized a name a nail polish competition on their facebook. If one of your names was chosen you would win the entire new 15 ml bottle range of the Glitter Gal Holos and Sparkles. Unfortunately none of my names were chosen. But I did was one of the lucky ones that received one holographic and one sparkle nail polish from the new 15 ml bottle range, because they liked my entry and as an appreciation for my time and support. When I read that I was really happy woohoooo because I did not had any Glitter Gal yet. And I'm always drooling on all the swathces I see online ;)  I received 10 to Midnight (one of their newest holographic ones, this one was not one of the colors in the naming competition) and from the Sparkles I received The Award Goes To (formerly known as White Gold... I will show that color someday). I am so happy with my first 2 Glitter Gal polishes...thanks again to Kerry and Anna from Glitter Gal ♥

Thursday my sister I and went to a rock concert from Anouk (a famous Dutch rock chick...she also has some hits worldwide so maybe some of you know her too) I thought 10 to Midnight was a perfect color for a rock concert :) I have a lot of photos and swatches for you ;)

Although the color is awesome by it self I stamped some Rock Stars on it ;) because as you know I am a nail art stamping addict. I used Bundle Monster plates BM05 and BM21 with Konad SN White. And on my ring finger a little clear rhinestone in the star.

 

I think the grey metal holographic base and the stars made these nails real Rock Star nails hahahahaha lol.

Now here are a lot of swatches ;) I just took many photos and want to share them with you because I'm so happy with my first Glitter Gal polishes :) This polish is soo pretty...I have to say to holographic effect is really showing in bright artificial light, sun light and camera flash but in normal cloudy daylight the holo effect is a less showing.

I love the shape of the new 15ml bottles (I don't have the 9ml bottle so I can't compare them) I love it that it has so much glass and is square. It is quite large I could hardly place my fingers around the bottle to take swatch photos ;)

Claire's Mood polish flirty/shy (+ CND effect and nail art)

Today I have a lot of photo's for you. Claire's Mood polish flirty/shy is a beautiful dark blue color and I love playing with mood polishes so I took a lot of photo's :) Also with CND effects Sapphire Sparkle on top and some nail art.

Let's start with the swatches of flirty/shy without the CND effect. It dries matte.

This is how it looks most of the time, warm fingers and cold tips.

Warm.

Warm and the tips are slowly turning colder.

Cold.

Cold and  I put the tips under warm water, you get the opposite effect of what it normally looks like :)

Under cold water.

Index and ring finger normal, middle finger and pinkie cold.

Index and ring finger warm, middle finger and pinkie cold.

Now the swatches with CND effects Sapphire Sparkle. Unfortunately I always find it hard to capture the effects on photo. So I couldn't capture the pink shimmer in it :(

With CND Sapphire Sparkle normal.

With CND Sapphire Sparkle warm.

With CND Sapphire Sparkle cold, in real life it looks a lot like Orly Lunar Eclipse, too bad I couldn't capture the pink in it.

With CND Sapphire Sparkle index and ring finger warm, middle finger and pinkie cold.

Close up, you can see the sparkle better (but not the pink flashes)

I really loved the polish with the CND but I did wanted to do some nail art on it. I liked the simplicity.

Stamped with Konad SN pastel blue and imageplate BM05.

A bit of strange settings but here you can see the sparkle better.

I totally love mood polishes, too bad they don't sell them here in Holland.
