Yellow and green leopard.

Hellu!
I felt I should do some non tape nail art so I don't totally forget how lol. I've been meaning to do a water marble for like ever but I didn't have the time or energy so I went for something easy but still fun. Leopard print! :)

Base is Face Stockholm - eemh yellow and the green dots are with the other Face Stockholm polish I got from my sister (no name for that one either) :) The black is A England - Camelot + SV to smoooth it out.

Bright and fun :)

Do you like leopard print? If so, traditional or these fantasy leopards? :P
Toodels!

Yellow creme.

Hellu!
Yellow cremes are usually a streaky mess. Why that is, I have no idea. It just seems yellow pigment is some evil thing that won't flow smoothly. Anyways. I got this polish from one of my sisters and tried it out. The formula was quite good actually. Color me surprised ;P

This is two coats of Face Stockholm - ??. (There was no number or name on the bottle.) I thought it looked pretty good and I didn't use a top coat :) Another nice thing about this polish is that all the ingredients are listed on the bottle.

I did some nail art on this one as well so I'll show you that later :)

Toodels!

Glad Påsk!

Hellu!
Happy Easter everyone! Here's my easter mani. I was thinking about doing a lot of nail art but I didn't have the time or energy so I ended up with this instead. It's still pretty and easter-y ;P

Of course they are purple and yellow :)

I painted every other nail purple with two coats of Color Club - Disco Dress and one coat of Milani - Hi-Res. The yellow nails have two coats of Color Club - Almost Famous and one coat of China Glaze - Lighthouse + SV.

Bling bling!

Time for a walk!

Just for you yanks.

Hellu!
When I posted my previous Trefoil symbol (yes I read that on wiki lol) in a polish group on Facebook this guy said something about a yellow and magenta version. When I found it on wiki I had to try and make another one like that as well :) It's the U.S. version of the radioactive hazard symbol.

Here's what it's supposed to look like.

Here's my version. It wasn't at all as red, the camera freaked out... The yellow is Viva La Diva - 51. On the pinky finger I started out with Color Club - Raspberry Rush since that was the closest color I had to the picture. Unfortunately the yellow base changed it and made it more pink. So I switched to Color Club - Power Play (which is reeeaally hard to photograph...) It's a purple neon. SV to smooth everything out.

On my left hand I decided to do a leopard using the same colors since I don't have a crackle in a similar color.

It was a fun and cute mani at least :)

Toodels!

Another yellow.

Hellu!
I got this polish early in 2010, just before the madness started to kick in ;P

Two (or three? hmm) coats of Viva La Diva - 51 + SV. You make everything look so yummy SV.

As usual with yellows it was a bit streaky at first, you need SV. But after it looks pretty. But beware! This polish stains like there's no tomorrow. My naked nails look like I've been smoking for 50+ years right now booh! Ah well, it's not like I would've gone without polish lol.

Now I just need a swatch of Polka Dot Bikini and I'm done with the yellows at least! :)

A VNL solution.

Hellu!
The Lighthouse from my earlier post was still not opaque after three coats. And doing four coats of polish, no... So you add something. And since I've been rhinestone-crazy lately aaand you have to apply them on wet polish so it's so easy to just slap 'em on and call it a day ;)

I did my right hand first as usual and put the stones on to hide mah visible nail line. And some SV that pooled up behind the stones. Meh.

I didn't really like the first hand so I placed them like this on my left hand. Much better. And what do you know, I got some cat eyes on my nails all of a sudden. And I do love 'em cats! Mine had yellow eyes as well :)

I promise I've done some other nail art manis as well lol.

Sparkly yellow.

Hellu!
Another weekend mani for ya'll.

Three coats of China Glaze - Lighthouse. Yellow glass fleck. Pretty and sparkly :) With flash. Needs another coat for opacity. Or you could just layer it.

Natural light. I thought it would clash with my skin tone but I like it :) It will probably look better when I've got my tan on tho ;P

Watch out! These nails are radioactive.

Hellu!
Yesterday I got this idea in my head and just had to try it. And it actually came out really good :) I just hope they don't notice it all too much at work lol. It's kind of in your face... :P

Radioactive nails!

I started out with 4 coats of China Glaze - Yellow Polka Dot Bikini. And it was still streaky! Booh! Guess I won't be using that one very often... But I should try it over a white base sometime at least. Then I put on some tape and added China Glaze - Liquid Leather. Two dots in the middle with the yellow (should've used a more opaque yellow for this... And then a black dot. SV!

The left hand took pretty long to do so I wanted something more simple on mah right hand that would still match the other one (and also since the yellow was streeeaaaaky). So I added Isadora - Black Tag and some SV. Kind of loving this look :)

Yey!

And with this colorful and loud mani I'll celebrate the International Women's Day :) Keep on fighting ladies.
Toodels!

Light Depends.

Hellu!
These are the last two Depends that I swatched. The only ones I didn't swatch were too thick. It's hard to thin out Depend polishes :/ Anywho!


This is three (booh) coats of Depend - 210. I like the color but the formula isn't as nice. With three coats it takes too long for it to dry and I actually picked it off during the evening since it wouldn't dry.

This is three (booh again) coats of Depend - 38. It's a nice pearly white but it didn't cover completely in three coats and come on it's not four coats-pretty...

Next up in the Helmer is Color Club :)

One of those random manis.

Hellu!
The other day I thought I should use my Color Club rainbows and do something rainbowy. I didn't really succeed in the rainbowy stuff but it turned out pretty fun at least.

I started with two coats of Almost Famous, a yellow creme. I think it would be great for summer.

I understand why it's only almost famous.. The formula made me a bit sad. But I guess that's the case with yellows. Btw, anyone know a good shimmery yellow?

Then I just went nuts with my breath and some straws ;P The bf liked this look. I agree, it looks pretty cool :)

I also got my striping tapes this day and had to try 'em on! It was pretty fun :) Altho I don't really like the color scheme, it reminds me of 80's sports wear lol. And also the blue (index) didn't look blue at all over the yellow.

The colors are:
Red - I don't really know since the label was missing :P
Green - Not Just For Kelly
Purple - Disco Dress
Blue - Chelsea Girl
Orange - Koo-Koo Cachoo

Toodels!
