Enchanting Fairytales

Hi Everyone,

I did this mani for a guest blog over at The Beauty Of Nail Polish. You can read the full post there :) I was really honored when Tara invited me.

I did a Fairytale mani a few years ago using Moyou plates. And this mani is inspired by that one,  I really wanted to do another one with Nailways Darker Period – Fairy Tales plate.

For the base I did a gradient with Lime Crime Once in a Blue Mousse, Lime Crime Lavendairy and China Glaze Neon & On & On. On top I did Catrice C08 Have an ice day topcoat for the holo sparkles. I stamped the images from Nailways Darker Period – Fairy Tales plate using Konad black. And the yellow stars are from Konad M34 using Konad pastel yellow. The white stars are from Konad M3 using Born Pretty stamping polish white. Painted the black near my cuticles and the door and path to the castle.

Looking at my nails I really want to go to Disneyland….I have never been there and it is one of my dreams.

Here also some pictures of my gradient base with holo glitters.

Thanks for reading :)

Christmas wishlist ;)

Hi Everyone,

Here a mani I did earlier, I believe it was for a challenge in AIS. It was to make your Christmas wishes on your nails. Well my true wish just isn't possible, but polishes and plates are always a nice present. So I stamped all kinds of polish and plate brands and made a Christmas tree out of polishes.

Base Sinful Colors Black on Black and Snow me White. Stamped the polish brands with FUN12 and used a Konad, Winstonia, Nailways, Essence, FUN and MJ plate for their logo's. Made a polish tree with the nailpolish bottles on FUN 12.  Stamped using Konad polishes.

Thanks for stopping by :)

Giving 2 little girls a mani and pedi

Hi Everyone,

This Summer the granddaughters of my dads girlfriend came to visit me for a mani and pedi. It was right before they went on holiday. The 6 years old girl wanted fairytale style and the 7 years old girl wanted vacation nails with a caravan cause they went on vacation with their own caravan. They had such tiny nails and it was hard for them to sit still, so not the greatest clean up.  But they were happy with them :) And I had so much fun doing their nails. I also did the nails of their grandma.

I used plates from Nailways, Moyou, Stampaholics, Konad, Cheeky etc. Don't remember exactly which ones.   

 They also wanted a nail tip with glow in the dark polish with their names on it and some studs/stones. 

Princess nails.

Vacation nails.

Princess pedi.

Hands and feet together.

Their mani's were inspired my some of my own mani's :)

And the nails of their grandma.

Thanks Myrte, Britt and Ria for the fun day and letting me do your nails.

Thanks for reading.

My final Halloween mani...a spooky scenery

Hi Everyone,

I have to show you my final Halloween mani. This was also the one I liked best :) (I did also really loved my 3d mummies and the ripped open zebra and bloody nails but those were not really wearable ;)) As you know I love doing sceneries it is one of my favorite stamping styles. I've done Halloween sceneries in the past too will show those too below.

Base Catherine Arley 801, Different Dimension gnarly, Nubar Reclaim and NailNation No Elfing Around. Used HB28 for the small cat, pumpkin, witch ghost (index). Stampaholics ST02 for the men hanging in the tree and the small cemetery on my pinkie. Nailways Darker Period- Halloween for "The Death" on my index finger. Bunny Nails HD-C for the bat on my pinkie and the house on my thumb. HD-D for the cemetery on my ring finger, the small trees, small bats and the ghosts on my thumb. So Happy I got to borrow my sis her Bunny plates :)

Here the sceneries from the past years :) Which one is your favorite? 2012, 2013 or 2014?

Thank you all for reading. Hope you all like my 20+ Halloween mani's. I think I did more then 20 last month 18 for the challenge from BM and like 3 others haha.

Black cat on the wall

Hi Everyone,

Today one of my Halloween themed mani's I've made this week. I made a couple of them I love Halloween themed mani's. I wish Halloween was a real holiday here too :) Julep contacted me and asked me if I wanted to participate with their Halloween challenge...and I said yes cause always love a challenge and especially when it is a fun theme. I don't own any Julep polish since it isn't easy for me to get, but ofcourse I've seen their polishes on blogs and facebook of my fellow nail addicts :) 

They send me a Halloween nail art tutorial....we all know my freehand skills aren't that great. And I have many other Halloween ideas but I thought it was fun to do a stamping mani based on their freehand tutorial..since I am a stamping girl ;) It isn't my most favorite Halloween mani I did but it was fun to do and I did gave my own spin to it...they used a fence and I made it a wall ;)

First I'll show you my mani and then I'll share Julep's tutorial with you. I would love to see your version of it if you decide to make it :)

I needed to use a blue for the night sky color, I could have used a darker more midnight blue but I wanted to use my new polish from the Greek brand Seventeen that I bought on my vacation there ;) It is opaque in one coat so that is nice and it also stamps, so win win. Will show swatches at the end of this post.

Now here is my mani.

Base Seventeen 545 (kinda has a suede look to it). Stamped with Konad SN yellow the peace sign from BM320 so I could color it and it could be my moon (see I do combine stamping with a little freehand :P haha). Used Konad SN pastel orange (this isn't really a pastel) to color part of my nail and stamped over it with BM422 in black to make it look like a brick wall. The black cat is from Nailways Darker Period- Halloween.

Here the tutorial from Julep. 

You have to zoom the read so to make it easier for you a cut it in pieces so you can easily see the steps.

You can see all of Julep's nail polish colors online.

Like I said if you make this look please let me know I would love to see :)

Here as promised some swatches of my new Seventeen polish. I only used one coat for this.

I really like this brand and every time when I am in Greece I have to buy at least one polish :)

Thank you for reading :)

Halloween nails and party pics of us :)

Hi Everyone,

Like I said before we went to a Halloween party Saturday night. I'll show you my nails and some pics of how we look liked :) We had sooo much fun. I looked similiar to last year but I don't have money to buy a new dress every year lol ;) So we did our make up a bit differently. I always love putting make up on my bf but he doesn't like at all and keeps on flashing his eyes and wont sit still, so it was really hard to do haha (let's not even talk about the removing part lol) But I liked the result and we had fun that is what is most important. The people there liked it too cause we (especially he) were photographed often.

Let's start with the nails.

Base Beauty UK Midnight Minx and sponged the tips with Julie G Cinnamon. Stamped the webs with Color Club Worth the Risque and Nailways Darker Period Halloween A-NW00016 plate. The spiders are also from that plate, stamped with Konad SN white. The skull is from Moyou Roxy collection 01. Added some studs for his eyes that I colored red :)

Here a pic of the webs without the spiders.

And a pic of just the base.

And here all 3 together. I kinda liked these looks all 3 of them haha.

And some pics of our night out the Halloween party :)

 Me, my boyfriend and my big sis.

My sis and I, I sooo loved her contacts soo cool those scary eyes and they were her strength too so she could see well. I can't stand anything in my eyes, but those contacts would be so cool to wear. I was jealous of her ;)

 Me.

 And impression of the night there.

 Sisters.

 Dancing together.

 My sis her outfit.

 My boyfriend and my sis.

Thanks for watching/reading :)

Hope you all had a nice Halloween.
