Best of.

Hellu!
I thought it'd be fun to make a post with my favorite manis since I made one with my favorite polishes. It will involve quite a bit of tape... ;) Oh and they're not in order or anything. You'll recognise some of them from my header since I put my favs there. But big pics is always nice huh? :] I'll include links to the original posts.

Ofc the radioactive one makes the list. I still think this is one of the coolest things I've done.

And part two.

One for the icelandic part of me.

 A super villainy one with rhinestones and striping tape.


A reminder that free handing is possible.

And ofc this post needs a marble and some rainbows!

I hope you liked this post! It's fun to go back and look at what you've made in the past to get inspired :)
Toodels!

Finally, a marble.

Hellu!
Since I'm back in school now, I have a feeling my nails will increase in prettyness ;) Here's a marble I did about a week ago!

Marbled with China Glaze - Foxy, Isadora - Black Rose & A England - Princess Sabra. It felt okay to marble with a holo since that one's probably my least favorite to wear just as it is. It worked great for marbling but we didn't expect anything else from that brand now did we? ;)

I really liked how the thumb turned out! Kind of reminds me of some galaxy nail or whatnot.

The right hand came out much better. Look at that pretty holo bling! :)

Swirly!

Marbling is fun! Now I want to do more holo marbles... :)

I seem to marble quite often.

Hellu!
I did another water marble this weekend. The pics don't do it any justice. Imagine them being ten times brighter! These nails got some attention since they're kind of in your face :P I didn't get too many great pics of them but you can imagine the rest ;)

Right hand. The colors mixed on the little finger -.-

Left hand.

For this marble I used Color Club - Raspberry Rush, China Glaze - Kiwi Cool-Ada, Yellow Polka Dot Bikini, Towel Boy Toy & Sun Worshipper + SV. (I should get the last ones from the Poolside collection ;))

I've tried marbling with these before but they don't work all that well. I don't know if it's because they're neons or something. Anyways it turned out fun at least :) I can't wait for summer to rock these polishes by themselves as well!

The forgotten marble.

Hellu!
Here's another water marble I did that crazy weekend when I did three of 'em! This one was the one I liked the least and that's probably why I've forgotten about it for so long :P Altho it was a bit nicer IRL.

All Isadoras; Turqouise, Copper Bronze & Star Glaze.

The copper kind of looks like sand. Hmm. Can't win every time ;)

They look really pretty in the bottles at least lol.

Toodels!

Another day, another marble.

Hellu!
Here's one of the water marbles I did last weekend. I've mostly water marbled with my China Glazes but I thought I should give the Isadoras a go as well since I have a few of them and there's plenty of polish in them :)

The marbling was done with Isadora - Jaded, Turquoise & Spellbound Black. I thought it lacked something so when I was done I put a coat of Color Club - Si Vous Please over it.

I didn't get a lot of great pics of this but you get the idea at least. I was a bit bummed that Spellbound looked so grey. Ah well.

Right hand. I wish all fingers had turned out more like the index and thumb on this hand. But that's also the charm with marbles, you never know what you're gonna get ;P

That was all for today! I'm waiting on a package with SV and I can't wait because I've been out for a long time and I miss it for tape and sponge manis. I hope I get it next week so I can do some more nail art! :)

Shimmery marble.

Hellu!
This is the mani I had on for my trip. I wore it for 10 days (omg!). I should do a water marble for every trip since it's harder to get bored with them. There's always a lot going on!

Polishes used were China Glaze - White Cap, Ahoy!, Lighthouse & Ruby Pumps (over one coat of E.L.F. - White). I really like my CGs for marbling.

The thumb has some CG - Dorothy Who? on it as well but it didn't really work so that's why it's the only one.

The right hand which turned out the best. On this one I also added a layer of Whitecap before I marbled.

The middle finger got dipped by accident but it turned out okay anyways :P

My favorite nail! I wish they could've all been like this one :P

Today was the first day of my 17 week long social work internship (or whatever that's called in english lol). I'm super tired. Going to be working 35 hours a week phoo. Not used to working but I think I'll get used to it in a week or two :) It's really exciting! Also this weekend I did 3 water marbles. Kind of insane haha.

Rainbows.

Hellu!
Finally I have some more nails for the challenge. I wasn't feeling well yesterday so these nails were made today. The theme is like the title says rainbow nails. Without further ado:

A rainbow water marble :) Made with mah Color Club pride nailpolishes!

So many rainbows... :)

Right hand. One coat of China Glaze - Snow under the marble also.

The right ring finger is the one I liked the best :)

I had to include this one as well. I even got an awesome rainbow on the other side of the nail :D

Psychedelic tape.

Next one up is gradient nails which is also something I really like so that will be fun too :) Altho I think I have to keep this one on for a bit longer than usual ;) Ah, I like 'em water marbles!

Black & white.

Hellu!
So the first post in the 14 Day Challenge ;) is black & white nails.

I decided to do a water marble!

I used China Glaze - Snow and Liquid Leather.

Under that was one coat of H&M - Daisy (very light grey) since I thought that would be more opaque than the white. But ofc it made the white polish look a little grey. Ah well you learn something every time! And the middle finger got messed up when I was going to tape the other hand :/

I think the right hand came out best :)

Next one up is metallic nails! Toodels!

Marblier.

Hellu!
I did a water marble on sunday and here it is. I learned some new stuff doing this, like that the color underneath really matters! I usually go for white or the lightest of the colors I'm gonna use. This time I thought I did that but weird things happened :P

Colors used were all CG - High Hopes, Starboard & Wagon Trail. These fingers had a base of High Hopes. Emh... Where is all the green? :P Also I did the dishes before taking photos so excuse the tipwear and also some weird lint. Lol.

When I noticed the weirdness I tried having Starboard as a base on the thumb. Green!

On my right hand I painted the base with on the thumb, middle and pinkie and the others green. I like water marbles :)

On monday I got my stuff from Bornpretty. It's the first time I've ordered from them and I must say they got here pretty quick :)

I had to try this little fella out, so cute! :D

Now I'm gonna go to my dance class.
Toodels!

Heavy metal.

Hellu!
This pix are a couple of weeks old. I was going to do a metallic theme but realised I need more metallics in non-metal colors for that. So I'm just going to post two of the manis today and the third one tomorrow.

Metal gradient. The copper by itself looked awful to my skintone Good thing I added :P It's MNY - 461. The middle is Victoria's Secret - Lovelight and the silver is Depend - 223.

Since I am a sucker for gradients I liked this one :)

The next one is a water marble that I unfortunately didn't get good photos of. It was done with the same copper and silver plus blue Depend - 247 and green 225.

Photographing the other hand with a big camera is really hard :P This marble was ridge-erific. Next time I do a metallic water marble I'll have some nice underwear lol. It was pretty and aquatic at least.

Today I have school all day but then it's weeeekend :) Yey!

Orange marble.

Hellu!
This weekend I did a water marble :)

I painted two coats of Gosh - Orange Drops, but I should've gone with a more opaque polish.. The I marbled with CG - Lighthouse & High Hopes and SOPI - Note To Self.

As always some nails turn out better than other. Also this should've been a summer mani since the orange made me look paler.

Pic-spam!





I really liked the ring and pinky finger on this hand :)



For some reason the bf wanted to be included in this photo. That's alright since he's out of town and I miss him! 8) But he's coming home tonight so it's OK ;)

I don't know why the spacing is off -.- But I have to get ready for school so I'll have to leave it...
