Essence Kiss Under the Mistletoe and Add on Magic!

Hi!
Today I'll show you how I used Essence Kiss Under the Mistletoe from my Advent Calendar.

Here is how it looks on my nails (I applied 2 coats)


Dark green creme nail polish in my opinion ideal for some nail art...


Because I received my purchase from RockNailStar I decided to use some of their stencils. 
Here is the outcome: 


I used stencils from spiraly and volny sheets. And Essence Add on Magic! from advent calendar (1 coat).


It looked way more beautiful in real life. I'm really sorry I couldn't capture this in the picture, because I'd really love for you to see it.


Isn't Add on Magic! pretty? I love it and can't wait to try it over some other colours. I do hope this one gets in their regular line, because I think that it will be hot merchandise! 






Advent calendars Day 1 - Day 6

Hi!

I wanted to share this with you yesterday, but my school work is killing me (not to mention that I have poor time management skills, and I'm currently not feeling like writing, because I wrote two seminars in the past 2 weeks).
I want talk a lot, here are pictures of the things I got in my 3 advent calendars from 1st to 6th of December.



 Ciaté advent calendar:
1. hierloom, 2. check mate, 3. pom pom, 4. cutie pie, 5. bloom boost treatment and 6. snow globe
Because these are my first ciaté nail polishes I just had to make a photo session with them. Here is another picutre:


Essence advent calendar:

1. Do you hear the jingle bells? 2. kiss under the mistletoe, 3.add on magic!, 4. north pole princess, 5 see you in my dreams and a nail file shaped in Christmas stocking
Look By Bipa advent calendar:

1. toe separator, 2. top coat, 3. cuticle sticks, 4 Black Night, 5. pink/sliver caviar beads and 6. nail file with loads of pink glitter
 I made a simple manicure with hierlom from Ciaté

I applied 3 coats 
and used an Ugolki(literal translate is corners) stencil from Rocknailstar with Essie Licorice




I know I'm really late with publishing swatches of polishes I got in my calendars (I do post pictures on Instagram regularly). I do hope I'll swatch them by the middle of January =). I'm thinking of making a blog post for each calendar with all of the swatches. What do you think?


Born Pretty Store Nail Vinyls

Hi!

Today I'm going to show you a manicure I made with Nail Vinyls NS02 from Born Pretty Store. I think you all know Born Pretty Store, but just to make sure, here is a link to their nail art department where they have tons of nail art related items: stamping plates, glitters, rhinestones, dotting tools, brushes, foils and many other items.

Now on to the vinlys. Here is how they look:

Size: Width: 1,0 cm
Lenght: 2,8 cm
They are a bit too narrow for my nails, but because I made a delicate gradient this transition is not visible.

The use is pretty simple. You just stick them to your polished nails, you just have to make sure that the base polish is REALLY DRY! If you are careful you can use one sticker more than once. 
You can polish over the sticker or sponge to get a gradient effect. I haven't tried stamping over this, but I'm not sure how would this work out, because there are small butterflies, and the stamping pattern wouldn't stand out the way it should.


For this manicure I used:
Born Pretty Store Nail Vinyls NS02
Revlon Peach Smoothie
P2 french kiss
China Glaze Strike a Rose 




They were kind to offer 10% OFF code for my readers, just use COLLX31 at the check out.


Have you tried vinlys yet? This was my first try, and it was really easy!
