#102 Intergalactic Planetary!!!



Whoop whoop, my best work recently!!!!
The base is a dark blue colour from Manhatten.
I did the dots with a q-tip and then used the magnetic effect afterwards with this Barry M. nail polish in Navy Blue.



I'm so late with this trend, I know! :D

#101 Dark Beauty


Greetings from London everybody, how are you doing? I just brought one nail polish with me (Manhatten in some deep red shade, they don't have names), so I clandistinely took my flatmates Barry M Magnetic nail polish in Navy Blue and did some nail art with clear film, which is supposed to give you a lacey look........
Well yeah Michelle Phan, it doesn't really look like lace........ 
Maybe I just suck. Haha.

I'm actually still tired and hungover because last night we had a huge Lunar New Year's bash with so much food and alcohol hahahahahhaha.

Chúc Mừng Năm Mới!!!!!!



(And I did my dishes and my nail polish just chipped right away!!!!)

Folks, I have an announcement to make:
I'll be moving to GB for the next six months and don't plan to bring my nail polish with me. Maybe only one. Ahhhhhhhhhhh. It kinda bums me out, I don't wanna spend money on vanity when I'll be going for higher purposes....

#78 Bloody Mess


One thing about me: 
I have a really weird addiction of watching youtube videos of horror games being played.
It's not only less scary, I also think it saves a lot of your time, not really being in that addictive mood to play video games all day long. (Except if you watch gaming videos all day long, which I always end up doing when procrastinating.)

Right now I'm watching the RPG 'Corpse Party', played by Cry, because pewdiepie is so lame. (Look up all the words that you don't understand from the latter sentence xD.)

Corpse Party is a very gory japanese survival horror game in Anime style, but I don't want to go into details here. 

I just painted my nails in this American Apparel polish called 'American Denim' and thought it was too boring looking. 
So I chose this Nivea red polish to do some ombre tips, which ended up looking really bloody.


I also tried to put some of that runny Sephora tint/tie dye stuff on top to make the baby blue look a little bit darker and more serious, but it smeared the red colour all over and made such a big mess!!!
That's why my left thumb looks especially bloody.

So, how do you like my gory nails? ;)

#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!

#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!

#69 Feelin' blue


Short entry with the prettiest blue I've seen in a long time: H&M's Peppermint Fusion!
(You can't see it in the picture, but there is a really subtle yet kitschy glimmer of blue-ish)

#67 Mirror, mirror


Returning with a special nail polish from Kiko. No, it wasn't just released, neither is it new or sponsored or whatever.
It's just cool ok?



It has a nice blue-ish shade.

I tried another polish on my other hand, and I think if you put this white glitter shade on top of the Kiko, it would look really good and I could do a 'Frozen' inspired nail theme then, but I didn't see the movie yet because my sister said the story was stupid and the characters were flat.



Done with a trippy Snow White H&M nail polish.
Can you spot the difference between these two pictures?

#59 Silver Rain

...or rather 
#59 seat patterns of public transport:
Which heading do you find to be more fitting?
(*____^)


Anyways, done with:

Essie in Lovie Dovie,
An Astor blue (that has no name)
American Apparel Constellation
and
Rival de Loop Galaxy Shine Andromeda


Had to cut my nails because they were breaking badly 
(XD)
The gradient is the same as in this 30 seconds to mars sticker I tore off a lightpole at a festival last year haha.

And one last tip:
If you ever use Lovie Dovie from essie, be sure to wear a layer of base polish underneath because this colour will stain your nails like in this pic

#37 Romance Dawn




Using OPI in Bastille my Heart underneath...

 ...and using following clear glitter topcoats:

The left one was a present from a dear friend who brought me this on her vacation in Korea. It's from Nature Republic, but there is no label at all on it. The right one is from The Face Shop, the colour's name is



(Btw, I love how Korean Make Up Brands put so much effort into packaging. Everything looks so lovely!)

I said earlier that the yellow nails in #36 would be the base for some nail art. 
I tested the two blue glitter ones with the Chanel (which is not supposed to be the nail art I planned to do but anyways):


As you can see, the blue glitter is merely visible, not to mention the blue colour. What a fail.


It's showing on the red OPI polish though:
Left is the Nature Republic polish, right the Face Shop one. The first has much more glitter particles.



Close-up on the left hand:


Right hand is not that glittery:
