My Birthday Nails

So today is my birthday, couldn’t upload this post earlier as I besides the nail art also had to refill my acrylics. Anyway didn’t really do much today besides that as I got a bad flu and just don’t have the energy for other stuff. Don’t ask me how I will survive this week’s school lessons. Anyway let’s talk nail art.

As I mentioned in one of my previous posts I absolutely love Robin Moses’ nail art designs and I will try to recreate practically all of them. The following is another inspired remake of one of her beautiful designs. Sadly when I finally finished my nails I didn’t have any natural lighting anymore so these pics are not doing this design justice. I’ll try to photograph some new ones tomorrow.

Products used:

• Hema- Clear polish
• China Glaze- Sunset Sail
• Catrice- Miss Piggy Reloaded
• Inaz- Glam Rock
• Inaz- Rose Glam
• MAC- Reflects Gold pigment
• Essence- Better than Gel nails topcoat
• Rhinestones

And of course a picture of my Bday outfit. Wasn't in the mood for special wear, so just a LBD and of course hot heels. 

Do you like this design?

Nailart: Blue Shatter Nails

Hello everyone sorry for not posting this past week. Had a lot on my mind; friends from abroad visiting, work, school starting next week and bunch of other stuff. I kinda got bored with my last design and needed something else even though I can only wear it for five days or so. I'm just not able to wear a design for more than a week…I need something else (and I'm also not allowed to wear nail polish at work *insert sad face*).

So while I was browsing online I remembered these gorgeous nail designs from Robin Moses (if you don't know her by now, you need to watch her ASAP). I basically love every design that she does especially the hand painted faces, because it starts out like basically this weird oval shape and then magically turns into this realistic face. They call her the nail art wizard for a reason. 

So this design was inspired by Robin Moses' blue shatter nails, but trust me when I say that I have to try to recreate practically all of them.

Products used:

• HEMA - black nail polish
• Catrice - 060 Mona Lisa is Staring Back
• Black acrylic paint
• Scraperfect - the best glue ever
• Inaz - Perseus glam
• Inaz - Parella glam
• Inaz - Madri glam
• MAC - reflects teal pigment
• Essence - studio nails, better than gel nails topsealer

I absolutely love this design and can’t wait to try it with other colors. The glitter effect is gorgeous and these photos don’t even do it justice, because it’s just mesmerizing to see in person.

PS: please excuse the nasty cuticles as these pictures were taken after wearing this manicure for almost three days.

What do guys think of this design? Have you ever used eyeshadow in your nail designs?

What did I buy? My shop log

This week I was searching for essential stuff to bring with me on vacation. I needed my beloved Mac concealer as I just finished my previous one and I was in serious need of hair removal items (who wants hairy legs on the beach right?). I also just can't help myself and always find my way to the nail corner (addict remember).

So what did I buy exactly this week? Of course my MAC concealer as mentioned above. Lucky me there was a sale on the new Veet Electrical Roll-on kit as it regularly costs around 25 Euros and was now half priced at the Dutch drugstore Kruidvat *insert happy dance*.

The generic brand (drugstore Kruidvat in The Netherlands) also had a nice offer being that you bought 2 hair removal items for four Euros, so I just purchased two packs of cold wax strips.

In the nail corner where the brands Essence and Catrice are located I picked up a black  Essence eyeliner, some handgloves from Essence for hand treatments and an eyeshadow base from Catrice. I also finally want to try a red color on my lips as I always wear a nude and decided to test a matt lipstick and a gel tint from Essence.

What beauty or product essentials did you buy this week?
