Neon Rainbow!

Hello beautys!

A long time I was wondering if I could get a nice rainbow mani.
And I found a package with 6 great neon rainbow colors!
I bought them, and try it.
And look what comes out!

In the shadow. I used 3 layers. But some colors did´nt work out that great.

In the sun!

 

Well I bought these at Action, and they where cheap, so I think it´s worth buying them.

What do you think of the rainbow nails?

End of the summer.

Hallo beauty's!

I have made this summer a nailart on my toenails.
The base is a gradient with the color's pink, yellow and orange.
All from Catrice.
And I used a striper (Janet) for the coco'stree.

 

 

This is my first hand made nailart on my toenails.
And I love it! It's not perfect, and my nail does'nt look great but yeah.
But summer is over now..
So tomorrow this one will be gone, and a new nailart will come out!
Do you have some inspirations? Something about the fall?

xoxo Ashley

China Glaze - 108 Degrees

Beautiful color don't ya think??

Vacation is over.... But alot of new polishes bought!

Hi everyone!

My vacation ends tomorrow =[
But I have a wonderful vacation, a week spend in Paris, and 2 weeks at home.
Time fly's by...

But I bought ofcourse some polishes!
3 in Paris, and the other's near home.

To begin with the 3 from Paris:

O.P.I. - Diva Of Geneva

It's a really nice color. Purple, with shiny gold^^

Sinful colors - Lets Talk

The real color of this polish is really hard to photograph.
But it has a little shimmer in it.
I never have seen a color like this one, and I fell in love with it^^
This is my first one from Sinful Colors, and from O.P.I. it's also my first one.

And the last one I bought in Paris, is a topcoat from Sephora.
It's called Purple Jewelry.
And they are FLAKIES!! Yaay, happy me.
I tried it in the shop on my black polish, and I could'nt get my eye's off it.

The picture is not that sharp. And this little bottle cost me €5,00.
But I'm happy I took it with me.

And now the lovely polishes I bought in my village.

Catrice - Lost in mud 220

This is one of the colors that's going out.
And i thought that I owend this color a long time, but after searching in my stash I didn't find it.
So I bought it in the sale^^ You don't hear me complain^^
I'm a really big fan of the Autum, and I think this color would match it perfectly^^

And I have bought more colors from Catrice who are going out.
The next one is called after me.

Catrice - ASHley 610

It's a really grey color. I don't think it will be looking great all alone, but mabye with some stamping it will be nice^^
But I'll swatch it in some time, just like all the others.

Next is also one from Catrice.
Catrice - Sing: Hey, dirty-Lilah! 630

Dirty-Lilah is a real soft light grey/lilac color with some shimmer in it.
I don't like bright light colors, but I like this one, because there is some shimmer in it.
With alot of polishes the shimmer isn't publicing on the nails, so I'm really curious if this one will do.

And the last one from Catrice.
Catrice Limited Edition Coolibri - Exotica C04.

Exotica is a bright neon orange color. I get a real summer feeling from this one.
I really don't like orange polish, but this one stole my heart.
You can see a swatch on my blog. http://ashley-nails.blogspot.nl/2012/08/summer-toe-nails.html

Then I've bought my first matte topcoat from Miss Sporty.
I'm really curious how it will look at my nails.



And the last 2 are from Essence:
43 Where is the party?



This is a nice duochrome purple color. And I don't know why, but if I look at it, I can't get my eye's of it.

And the last one
72 Time for romance.

I don't know yet if this is a topcoat or a full polish. But I think just a topcoat.
There are alot of sparkles in there, from large to small.
And I don't know what to expect from it yet.
Time will see.

So that's wat I bought this vacation^^

Summer Toe Nails

Hello dear bloggers!

2 weeks ago I painted my toenails.
The base is Catrice Limited Edition Coolibri-Exotica 04
And the stampings are from Essence, with the polish from Konad.

There is no topcoat over here.
And that in about 2 weeks!
I love the orange color, even I don't like orange that much^^
But for the summer it's great^^

Essence - 04 A Walk In The Park Swatch

Hello dear bloggers!

Today I'm gonna show you one of the Essence Colour 3 polishes.
This is number 04 in the collection. And it's called 'A walk in the park'.

I really love green polishes, so that's why I choose this one to swatch!

So what I think of the polish is:
The first layer was really crappy.. You could see right through it!
I used 3 thick layers. The polish itself was quite thick, and the brush I thought it was nice.

After putting the base, I used the sparkle topcoat.
The polish is less thicker, than the green one.
I like the little sparkling!

And the total look is awesome. I like it alot.
But I'm wearing it now for 2 day's and, there already broke at some points.
I used for topcoat Essence quick dry.

So I like the way it looks, but I think the polish is to fast broken on your nails.
Well here are some pictures. Quality of the pics are not great.

The base, lovely green.

The sparks

Here you can see the sparks very well.

Total look!

So what do you think about the Essence Colour 3?

Frence Manicure

Hello,

Yesterday I did make a Frence Manicure on my moms nails.
She liked it so much!
It was the first time I polished otherones nails.
And I think it looks pretty good, ofcourse there are some mistakes.

Polish I used.

Base coat from Max
Frence Glam from Essence - Pink Glam!
Rimmel Londen - Flammable
Top coat Essence Quick Dry

I have to say, that I don't like the top coat from Essence.
It says that the polish will dry faster then other top coats.
But no, this one has to dry much longer....
I'm gonna try the coat on another polish, mabye it works then.

Colorfull crackle nails

Hello everyone!

It's been a while since I posted something.
But today I'am gonna show you my colorfull crackle nails, I've done some days ago.
Polish I used:
Base Coat from Max
Rimmel London - Flammable (white)
Essie - Beach Bum Blu (96)
Catrice - 060 Bloody Mary To Go
Catrice - 010 Don't Feed The Birds
Catrice - 340 Run Forest Run
Essence - 01 Crack Me, Black
Top Coat from Max

The time I spend for this is 1,5 hours.
It's not a lot of work, but because you have to do a lot of layers, it costs some time to dry.

I'm really happy with it.
It looks like art haha.
What do you think?
