Essie Mint Candy Apple

When I first saw swatches of this polish many, many years ago, I fell in love and I mean L O V E! But sadly, Essie wasn't available in my little country yet, so I couldn't get my hands on it. But I kept pining after it and when I discoverd a little thing called internet shopping, I jumped for joy! Finally, this beauty was going to be mine! Imagine my horror when I discovered I...

China Glaze Can I get an untz untz

I love a nice neon polish and I love a good glitter, so when I saw China Glaze was releasing 3 neon glitter toppers in their Electric Nights collection, I knew I had to have them all! China Glaze Can I get an untz untz is a mix of neon green, blue and purple small hex glitter in a clear base. These are iridescent glitter, so they show up best when layered over a light base. I...

piCture pOlish Fool's Gold

If you've been reading my little blog for a while, you probably know that I'm a huge fan of Picture Polishes. I just love their formula, even though I did finally come across the first with a trickier formula recently. In the last few months, I've picked up quite a few of them, so you're going to be seeing a lot of this brand here. Today I have one of their collaboration shades. Picture...

A England Princess Sabra

It's been so sunny here the last few days, I almost thought it was Summer already, but unfortunately I just saw the forecast and we're about to get some rain... But with all that lovely sun, I was in the mood for a nice holo polish. A England Princess Sabra is an olive golden holo polish. I know that's possibly the worst description of a polish ever, but when you see the swatches,...

Zoya Savita

I love purple polish and own quite a few of them, but somehow I never seem to be in the mood for purple nails. I always go for the same kind of colors (red, blue, green or something DarknTwisty), but a few months ago I decided to try to step outside my comfort zone more often and wear different colors. Zoya Savita is one of the first polishes I wanted to wear. It's a stunning...

China Glaze Treble Maker

I'm back! After a week of not posting and just laying in bed, I have such a gorgeous polish to show you. I was so dissapointed with the China Glaze Road Trip collection, that I didn't have high hopes for the new Electric Nights collection. But when the first swatches and reviews began to pop up, I slowly started to realize I might need to pick up the entire collection! I didn't...

Ugh...

So we finally had a nice, extra long Easter weekend! 4 whole days off to enjoy the lovely weather, spend time with friends and family, hunt for eggs and all that fun stuff. And of course I got sick... I spend the entire 4 days either in bed or on the couch, coughing, having a fever and just simply feeling miserable, I'm still not feeling all that great, so I haven't had time...

China Glaze Pop the trunk

I love orange on my nails and one of my favorite polishes of all time is China Glaze Riveting. I've worn that so much, my bottle is almost gone. So when I saw China Glaze included an orange polish in the recently released Road Trip collection, I just had to get it. China Glaze Pop the trunk is a very red leaning midtoned orange cream. This was marketed as a bright orange, but...

Girly Bits Glow Worm

It's supposed to be Spring, but when I look out my window, all I see is grey and rain pouring down... I'm so over this bad weather and I'm just craving sunshine. If I can't have it outside, I'm just going to have to paint it on my nails. Girly Bits Glow Worm is a bright, in your face lime green jelly base with a glass fleck shimmer. It was released as part of the 2012 Slapdash...

piCture pOlish Lollipop

Sometimes a blogpost writes itself, but today's post...  not so much. I struggled a little to get the wording for this post right, but the biggest struggle was to get this polish on my nails in such a way, that it did justice to the absolutely stunning polish I saw in the bottle. This wasn't a polish that I just slapped on or a blogpost that I wrote in 2 minutes, this has...

OPI Crown me already!

If you would've told me I'd be showing you today's polish as a polish I really love about a year ago, I wouldn't have believed you. Not only because it's such a hard to find polish, but because I used to hate silver on my nails. I really didn't like any of the metallic colors, but somehow I've been loving gold and silver lately. I still don't like the (often streaky and brushstroky)...

My most worn polishes: Indie

When I did my most worn polishes post, I decided to split it up into two posts, mainstream polishes and Indie polishes. You can see my most worn main stream polishes here and today I have the indie polishes I've worn the most. This was a really fun post for me to do, because I rediscoverd a couple of polishes and actually wore one of them straight away! Let's start with the very...

Girly Bits Fright Night

Spring is just around the corner and I've been loving light, airy colors, but yesterday I was in the mood for something dark and vampy. I debated if I wanted a black or red nail and decided to go for both. You know I love my dark colors, but my biggest weakness, besides red polish, is a black jelly base, packed with red glitter. I think I own one from every brand, but I keep buying...

Happy St. Patricks Day!

Happy St. Patricks Day! Ever since I lived in Ireland for a couple of years, I celebrate this holiday by going out to the Irish pub and having a nice, green pint of Guinness with my husband. Of course I have to have a matching mani and most years I go for some kind of clover nail art. This year I decided to go for art, a glitter and my favorite green cream. I put down 2 coats...
