From the vault: a matte starry night

Good morning all! Here's another mani from the vault, one that I mattified (there's just some about matte glitters, don't you think?) but loved both ways! The glitter that I used has some holographic glitter as well, which stood out more when shiny though. The glitter applied great, but just as last time, I did have to fish the stars out a bit. There's...

Inspired by... nail strips

Good afternoon! Yesterday I showed you some nail strips, and when I picked out those 2 sets, I also got inspired by one of the other sets! For this mani I started with a light blue base and used saran wrap to sponge some darker areas on it, then stamped the spots on top. The strips look darker and have more teal spots as well, but I liked the lighter...

OMGNailStrips Love nail polish strips

Hi guys! Just a quick post today with a review of nail strips. I'll start with the result for a change :)Here's how they look in the package (I'll show the other ones some other time) and the different sizes you get. I used the smallest sizes, but on my thumb I could've used 1 size bigger to fully cover the sides. Considering the size of the biggest...

Hey all :) I didn't plan on posting anything today, because the early access of the game Final Fantasy XIV A Realm Reborn started today! Haven't played Final Fantasy in years, kupo! But I tried the beta and it brought back so many memories that I was looking forward to play some more today. Aaaand then the servers went down, lol, so instead of looking...

Dots and stripes

Hey all! Here's another mani with one of the Autumn Nights polishes as stamping polish, and just like Scandalous Shenanigans, Rendezvous With You worked well too!

Essence Paper Print - love it or leave it?

Yeah, I guess the title already gives a hint about the tone of this review. It feels like I've done several less positive reviews this month, and I don't like writing those and would rather just skip this whole thing. But I know some people were wondering about the Essence Paper Print stuff as well, so I'll post my findings anyway. I'll appologise...

Goood afternoon all! When I showed the preview of the new Essence products, I already mentionned I was curious about the Sparkle Sand Effect polishes. And as you maybe saw on my Facebook or Instagram, I found them in the store the other day!
