Pink & Hearts: Beste Twin Nails with The Beauty Of Nail Polish

Hi Everyone,

Earlier this week Tara from The Beauty Of Nail Polish contacted me if I wanted to do #bestietwinnails with her. I was really honored she wanted me do that with her :) I have never done bestie twin nails. Ofcoure I did do the story nails with Fab Ur Nails and others, but no bestie twin nails. So I was double excited...my first twin mani and with a very talented nail artist. 

We talked on facebook and decided to do something loved themed since it will be Valentine's Day next month. She suggested we both should do a pink mani with hearts, no specific plates or polishes just this theme. And the rest was up to us how to interpret this theme. 

You can follow her on Facebook too here a link to her page. And she is also on Instagram @thebeautyofnailpolish and as you know I recently joined the IG world too @dianavnisselroy if you like to follow me too ;)

Now let's show both our mani's.

I love how we both used different kind of pink tones. It is so fun to see how we both interpreted this theme. And I seriously love her mani, especially her ring finger is mesmerizing.

Now also a closer look to my mani with all the details.

I sponged my base using Konad SN pastel pink (I really wanted the base color to be the same as the stamped images so it would blend well) and Only You 015 Pink Party! (that brand is from a local drugstore called ICI Paris XL) On top I used Essence 25 Let Stars Rain Down On Me a holo glitter topcoat (a bit similar to INM out the door silver). Stamped the hearts with the french tip image from Konad M73 with Konad SN pastel pink. The bigger and small hearts are from Nailways Spring Time - Love is in the Air stamped with Konad SN magenta.

I liked how this turned out with the gradient and the french tip design and tone on tone :) 

Here also a picture from the gradient base. Too bad you can't really see the holo sparkle that good.

If you like to know the details on Tara her mani go over to her blog: The Beauty Of Nail Polish.

Thank you for doing this fun Bestie Twin Nails with me, I look foward to doing more in the future.

Thanks for reading!

Have a nice weekend :)

Blue with Dolphins

Hello Hello,

 

For today I have another older mani. I made this one in April 2010.

 

Base P2 191 Gigantic a very bright dark blue. Stamped with Nfu Oh 65 and M73 and the dolphins are from GCOCL A02 stamped with SN pastel blue.

 

Here also a swacth of this P2 polish.

It is a really bright blue and was hard to capture correctly.

Blue with butterflies and holo

Here something I did a month ago. Not really one of my favourites but it was just something I made fast and I wanted to use one of my untried polishes.

Base is Catrice 400 Blue Cara Ciao with Golden Rose Magic no 327 on top. The photos don't do this polish justice ;) Stamped with Konad M73 and Nfu Oh 65 and Konad M41 and SN white. Added some big blue transparent glitter on the butterflies in the middle.

 Different light.

Only the full nail stamping with M73 and Nfu Oh no 65.

Here some swatches, but it really looked soooo much prettier in real life. So saw more kinds of blue also turquoise.

I do really like blue nail polish :)

Holographic and full nail flowers.

My last nail art creation I totally messed up, so I had to do something else quick and easy. When I want to do something quick I always go for a holographic nailpolish most of the time one of the China Glaze Kaleidoscope collection. This is my favorite collection ever! (I have all 12 of them and will post swacthes later) I  haven't worn them all I still have to wear 3 of them. But they are my precious jewels ;) just totally love them and they dry really fast.

Base China Glaze Rated Holographic from the Kaleidoscope collection. I stamped with Konad SN white and plate M73. It is pretty difficult to stamp a full nail twice on long nails. Photo with flash.
