#74 Tinkerbell


Used a strange green polish (essie's Navigate Me) to create ombre nails because I think wearing the colour purely wouldn't look that good.
I used beyu in 192 as a base colour, but I wish I would have used something more opaque than this translucid nude colour.




It doesn't look that great (kinda reminds me of moss or mold! Dx), so I put on some topcoat with glitter shards (Catrice's Glitterazzi) on top.


And tadaaaa~ there you have your Fairy/Emerald City/Sparkle Sparkle/Fantasy themed nails.

#73 Baby Blue


On my vacation in France I went to a Sephora store and got three Sephora nail polishes for 9.90€, one for 4.95€ and the third for free.
I chose these ones:


A really cute pale blue, a tie dye polish and a gel top coat.
I haven't tried the top coat yet.
But without knowing or expecting anything about that tie dye stuff, I just bought it. The consistence is more runny than normal polish, and the colour is an inkish blue. The instructions say to put it on top of two layers of normal colour.
So what I expected was something like a chemical reaction, that it would dissolve the base colour and create a really cool looking effect or something like that.
But tant pis, the tie dye is actually just some sort of runny clear top coat that is tinted, which creates a layer of darker shade on your base.
Dull.

I was so disappointed that I couldn't come up with any ideas to create a cool design, so I'm just posting the picture I sent my sister to show her my disappointment.

I will maybe use it sometime later.


The baby blue polish is pretty cute, tho!

#72 Jade‘n'Avocados



Pretty conceptless nail design, I went to France last week to visit a Cutiepie of mine, and one night we got pretty drunk on vin blanc in her room and decided to do our nails.
That's why the first picture is so blurry. Sorry for that.

The dark green is not as glittery as the blurry pic suggests, and it has a sandy/emery paper texture, which reminds me so much of avocados. Yummy!!!
(Look at the second picture, looks like an avocado nail. And doesn't that Taboule look suuuuper awesome??? 
French fast food ☆____☆)



I knew if I wasn't going to take this picture, I'd have forgotten what polish I used!
So the jade colour (with a gold shimmer, very pretty) is from Catrice with the name 'Mint Me Up'.
The darker green is from p2 called Opulence. Haha, I still remember! ;-)
