#77 Metal


Simple but effective nails!
Done with an amazing polish I bought 2010 or so in Korea!


This is the most beautiful polish flask I own. It‘s from Etude House, and I thought that when I bought it 3 years ago, the colour was more runnier and not so opaque. Maybe it changed through the years, I haven't used this one quite a while. I actually wanted to lay this colour over a glittery bordeaux to create a goldish look, but it got completely overpainted.


The bottle is so cute, there is an inscription of the brand on it, which is not readable on these photos (=.=)

#76 Modern Art/Rothko



I'm a little bit ashamed to come back with such a crappy nail design, so I put an artist name into the heading to make this seem all fancy and artsy and shit. Please be fooled by that. Oh, you don't know Rothko? That's the name of a guy from the book 'Twelve' by Nick McDonell.


I wanted to do was inspired by this picture from an editorial from a magazine called Glass magazine (June 2013 I think)




These polishes are suuuuper old! I think I got the red Nivea one about 5 years as a birthday present, and the blue one from H&M about 3 years ago or so. The latter is really viscid by now and doesn't dry so well anymore (because the layer is too thick I assume). The red one is still working surprisingly well!
