Valentine's Day Manicure

It just a week left until Valentine's Day. For me it is more of less just a regular day, I don't make big fuzz about it but still it is nice when shops are all full with different stuff with hearts like pillows, blankets, cards, cups etc.,etc. It brings the feeling that life is great and full with love but then comes next day after Valentines and it's gone. Anyway in this post I decided to put my Valentine's day nails. 

Spring In My Head

While mother nature can't decide it is  winter or spring and don't pamper us with nice weather, I am already in spring mood. I am sick of all this cold and glumly weather, I am craving for warmth and bright colors!

New Year, New Manicure

The New Years starts with fresh manicure! Well after all these holidays it is kind of lazy time, because there is no more rush of buying presents, decorating and preparing for celebrations and overall it is time when all I want is a piece of quiet.

Manicure - Glitter Overload

Unbelievable how fast time flies - next week is Christmas. This is my last week at work before holidays. I am totally in Christmas mood and so excited for upcoming holidays. On top of all that I just made fresh manicure, that is full of glitters.

Christmassy Manicure

The Advent has began, I am not quite sure how it goes in different cultures, but for me it is quiet period, also period of reflection. This is how it was represented, teached to me from childhood.

Now I am very far from my homeland, here we even don't have snow, what (for me) is one of "must haves" for Christmas.

All that became a source of inspiration for this manicure.

Fresh Manicure

Oh, it feels so good to have fresh manicure, especially after some time without any. Lately I have some kind of overwhelming of ideas for my nails, I want to try different techniques, but I can't decide what I want the most and end up with nothing. 

Trying New Trend IT Up Nail Polish

I had an opportunity to try out new nail polish from German drugstore DM +dm-drogerie markt Deutschland new brand called Trend It Up. I got nail polish called No1 Nail Polish in color 070. The color is very beautiful, even thought at first I wasn't shure about it.

This is how it looks on my nails. 

Amethyst Stone Glitter

Autumn is nearly here and slowly everything gets in more darker tones. Recently I bought new gel from Depend GelLack collection, it is dark purple with different size glitters. This gel looks gorgeous (especially in person), in some way it remains me of night sky or galaxy.

Holiday Manicure

My holidays have started and it is just the right time to do my nails. This time I also used Essence Gel Nails top and base coats, but with other brand regular nail polishes. 
So these are my holiday nails!

Trying Out Essence - The Gel Nail Polish

This year in spring Essence released new gel polishes that don't require lamp. I read many good reviews and wanted to try it, but for different reasons I got my hands on it just now. These gel polishes are very inexpensive - top and gel cost €2,45 each and color polishes €1,55.

Final result really looked and felt like gel, but it even didn't last me a week. As far as I know their previous gels should last up to 10 days, so I thought the new one will last about same. For me it lasted about 2 days, then appeared first chips and air bubbles under the polish.

Well I am bit disappointed, but on the other hand what I expected when it is so cheap? Over all I liked and definitely try it again, maybe next time I will be more lucky.

Flowery Toes

I still am in this pastel color mood, so on my toes I went for this light blue (or green-blue) color and then draw flowers on every toenail. Final result is interesting and new to me, because usually when I do nail art on my toes - it is only on thumb. 

French Manicure

For a while I had bold colors on my nails, now I just wanted something simple, neutral, feminine... so french manicure is perfect! 

Manicure - Red With Green

This time there are a lot of things going on my fingers. I am using two different gels, regular nail polish and glitters and also some nail art stickers.
Only now looking on all stuff I have putted on my nails, I realised that - that's a lot (comparing to what I usually put on nails) but nails looks good and don't like it is too much.

Purple Toes

This month is freaking busy, I barely can find time for myself. Today finally got time to do my toe nails. My initial idea was a bit different, but as if often happens, durring the process I change my mind. And here is the result:

Burgundy/Purple Nails

And again new update on my nails.  Looking through my nail polish collection,looking for inspiration for my next manicure and seeing these two colors beside.. I knew - I need to put them together on my nails. 
So this is how it turned out:

I used:

P2 8in1 nail wonder

P2 Color Victim - 693 that's it!

Primark: NAIL ART get creative 

NailSystem - Variety 4/1

Lace Nails

Past week I have been lazy couch potato.:D Ok, maybe I am too critical towards myself, but I really hate when I have loads of things to do but I don't do them, basically just waste my time BUT as excuse to myself - I managed to read a couple of books so I didn't completely wasted my time.
When I finished last book, I decided to take a break and do something else, like try new things on my nails.
I have seen different ways of doing nails with laces and wanted to try them so long but never got to it. I made one of the easiest ways (as I think) - all you need to do is cut out piece of lace and stick it to nail.

Looks pretty cool, especially from the far (in close it is more like - wtf?!). Well, it was hard to find perfect placement for lace on my nail, so next time I will try with another with smaller pattern.

When my nails was done I had this feeling that something is not right or is missing. By adding a silver gem, made it look more completed.

I don't know how long it will last, but if laces won't fall off soon I will peel them off anyway because I just can't stop touching, rubbing and scratching them. :D

I used:

P2 Color Victim - 693 that's it!

P2 8in1 nail wonder

coral pink laces

Magnetic Lines

This time doing my nails I decided to play around with magnetic nail polish. Also wanted to see how going to look like that P2 crisp nail polish (what I wore before) in nail art and I can say straight away that I have ambiguous thoughts about result, can't really tell neither I like it or not.

Crisp Nails

This week I am trying out one of new nail polishes from P2.
When I was in store its texture caught my attention and I wanted to try it straight away.

Polka Dots

Dots, dots, dots - one of thing that reminds me of my good friend, who I haven't seen for so long time. So many good memories..

Well, I can say, that this time my friend was my inspiration. Also I haven't done matching manicure and pedicure in a while and now I am all covered in dots :D 

Fireworks Manicure

From post title can be imagined drawn fireworks on nails, but recently I broke one nail, so I cut rest of my nails short and when I have short nails I usually don't do any nail art. I just painted nails and, to make them look more fun, topped with glitter top coat (that is called Fireworks, on nails it looks some way like fireworks or confetti).

Here is the final result:
