summery fishbone ♥

Today, I'm wearing a very summery fishbone nail art ♥

It was very easy,
you just layer each colour on top of each other,
and voila!!

The pastel peachy coral and the metallic pink gold makes my fingers so..
beach ready!!
I wish my body was as beach ready as my nails!! :s

 Pastel peachy coral: Essie#710 van d'go
Pink gold: Essie#942 penny talk
Purple: OPI NL E74 You're Such A Budapest
Top coat: Seche Vite dry fast top coat





What do you think?
I think it was perfect for the hot sunshine we've been getting in London this whole week!!



elegant in the perfect shade of beige

Hi everyone♡
Today I'm wearing an elegant shade of beige with a silver gradient.

I think it is any nail blogger's mission to find 
the perfect shade of beige that matches your skintone.
It's so difficult to find just the right hue that would compliment your skintone
and make your nails look longer and cleaner than ever,
since you can't really rely on other people's swatches.
 You just have to try them out yourself!!
I was on this mission ever since I've started painting my nails for the first time,
and I now own about 10 different beige polishes.

And I was lucky enough to find the perfect beige!!
My good friend gave this to me as a present,
and I absolutely love it!!
I love Essence polishes,
all the colours I've tried from them dry fast,
has good pigmentation and dries super glossy!!
I also love their slightly rounded brush 
that makes painting around the cuticle lines so much easier!!

The formula for this beige was amazing too,
it became opaque after 2 thin coats,
and any slight streaks you have can be covered up with a topcoat!!


After 2 coats of this beige,
I added my all time favourite silver glitter near the cuticles in a gradient,
then finished off with a thick coat of topcoat.
✤ Colours Used ✤
Base coat: OPI#NT T10 natural nail base coat
Beige: essence nude glam #04 iced latte
Silver Flecks: TiNS#701 Photogénne
Top coat: Seche Vite dry fast top coat


What do you think?

I think my nails look super stylish and clean and elegant♡♡♡


P.S.

Here are some pictures I have taken the next day,
in natural light as opposed to the ones I have taken before in my room.
Hope you can see how the beige has a very slight hint of pink in the daylight!!
I usually paint my nails everyday,
but I am too much in love with this to change today!!
 

hologram flowers


Today, I'm wearing yet another pastel nail art♡

I have used 3 coats of each colour,
then placed white pearl holograms in a flower pattern,
 covering everything up with a nice thick coat of Seche Vite.
It's as simple as that, and the end result is so cute!! I love this!!

OPI: I Theodora You
Hi everyone!
Today I have a quick swatch of 
OPI #NL T61 I Theodora You
 from the Oz The Great & Powerful Soft Shades Collection♡

I have used this delicate soft pink here (with glitter) and here (with rose nail art). 

I love soft and sheer pinks,
and I feel like this colour is just the perfect polish for me!!

I have used 3 coats for the pictures.

As you can see, it is quite opaque after 3 coats,
but still has a little hint of squishy jelly finish  which I just adore!!
The application is amazing too,
the formula is watery and self levelling,
resulting in a wonderfully shiny finish☆

It really goes well with glitter polishes on top too!!

Here is a close-up shot, again, using 3 coats.

Even on its own,
this colour makes your fingertips girly, chic and pretty ♡
