My weekend.

Hellu!
Hope you all had a nice weekend, I did! :)

Me and the bf had a cosy night in and made sushi on friday :)

Saturday I went to Copenhagen with my bff 8) This is what I bought, on the ferry! Lol.
Sally Hansen Extreme Wear - Twisted Pink & Peach Daiquiri + Gosh - Golden Dragon & Orange Drops. The Sally Hansens were only 29 SEK each and the Gosh ones were 40% off so I paid 65 SEK for both. Yey!

This is what I had on my nails in Copenhagen. Two coats of Depend - 228.

I actually got a compliment for my nails from a middle aged man working on the ferry :D It's a nice blue :) Good application and drying time as well.

Toodels!

Found some new friends.

Hellu!
Quick post today. I'm going to Copenhagen with my best friend today :) Gosh here I come! Lol. Anyways, I was looking through some stuff in a cupboard and found two nail polishes, win! And then I bought a gold polish when I was out and about with a friend.

Isadora - Galaxy, I have no idea who bought this, it's from my mom's house. The gold polish is H&M - 70s Boho, I needed a gold polish, it was only 29 SEK and look at the cute bow! 8) And Sally Hansen - Hope Frost which I bought in NYC seven years ago and had forgotten about. Hi Duane Reade! Lol.

Sally Hansen - Hope Frost. Two coats, nice drying time.

I liked this pinkish frosty color. Isn't free polish fun? :P

Time to get ready! Toodels!

Crack-a-lack.

Hellu!
What do you do when you removed your polish the night before and don't have much time to paint them in the morning? Well I used H&Ms U Must Have This since it dries fast. It would have been better with two coats but I wanted something even more fast drying. Enter crackle! This mani came off when I came home so it lived for about 5 hours :P Yes, it wasn't all that.

At least there was some sun :>

The crackle is Isadora - Subway Green. I think it's hard to apply it evenly, and also there was some dried up polish around the opening that wanted to get stuck on my nails :p SV would've been nice if I had had more time. Maybe next time!

Toodels!

New achievement!

Hellu!
This was a new achievement, maybe 10 points. Yes, I have been damaged for good by World of Warcraft. Lol. But anyways I'm really excited about this one. It's on my nails as I type this since I couldn't wait to post it :) And I've had it on for 2 days :O Hehe.

My first attempt at leopard nails. I must say I am pleased :) It wasn't that hard to paint the right hand either. Photo taken by bf :*

I followed Rebeccas tutorial which made it very easy :)

Oh and the colors used are Color Club - Amp'd Up for the base, Power Play for the spots and China Glaze - Liquid Leather for the black stuff + SV. Now I want to do this with every color combination ;D

And a simple swatch of Amp'd Up, two or three coats. It was a bit streaky but that didn't really show up in the photos so that's nice :P

Hope you liked it as much as I do :)
Toodels!

262, the sister of 259.

Hellu!
Another simple mani, but oh so pretty! The previous polish had chipped a little plus I wanted to try the black one as well so I just put on coat of 262 on top of the two coats of 259. A nice way to paint your nails in the morning :p

It has the same finish as the other one. Background is a tie dyed hand towel :>

I like that it didn't really feel like I was wearing a black nail polish. It's more fun than that :)

I wish the sun would've been out but ah well. You can see the pretty shimmer anyways at least :)

Yesterday I tried a new design and it turned out really nice! So I think I'll post that tomorrow :)
Toodels!

A couple of new friends.

Hellu!
I've been thinking I shouldn't buy that many polishes in the stores and instead order online. But sometimes you see something that you really like, or that is on sale 8)

From the left: Kicks - Candy Gal, Isadora - Bordeaux Red & Bridal Rose, Depend - 262 & 259. The Isadoras were only 20 SEK each at Ica Maxi :>

I kind of fell in love after seeing Alizarine Claws swatches :) This is Depend - 259.

I really like that it dries to a weird finish 8) Also the application and drying time was really nice.

Why does time move faster in the morning? :O Need to get ready for school.
Toodels!

Flowers.

Hellu!
I decided to try some freehand nail art with the pink base from my previous post. I bought the smallest brush they had at Panduro but I need a smaller one. With harder bristles I think. Anyways it turned out pretty good. It got some compliments in school which is always nice :) Ignore the random dots on my pinkie lol.
The flowers are painted with Color Club - Power Play.

I wish I would've mattified it so it would be easier to see the flowers.

And it wasn't too hard to do some flowers on my right hand so this was a winning concept for me 8)

Toodels!
