Beauty In The Bottle

Hi,
Today I'll show you a cute minty manicure with roses.
I started with two coats of China Glaze -Refresh mint and then I applied one coat of a
glittery nail polish. Then I stamped the roses from m65 image plate with Special Black.
I finished with a clear top coat. This was my first experience with China Glaze
and I liked it a lot. It's such a pity that they are so hard to find in my country.

Here are some new shades I got: Orly -Crush on you, China Glaze -Lemon Fizz,
China Glaze -Refresh Mint and Brust Crackle -Sunflower.

Mauve stripes

Hi,
Today I'll show you a new manicure I made with an essence stamping plate.
Firstly, I applied two coats of Sinful Colors - Let's talk and then I stamped the design
with Jolfin Blanc. When I applied the clear top coat, something that never happened to
before just did. The stamped white fade. I think it's because of the mauve polish,
because it had never fade before, no matter what base color I used.
Anyway, this was perfectly good for me because I liked it even more.

How to fix a broken nail

Hi,
Today I'll show you a very useful tutorial for those really annoying situations when you have
ten beautiful long nails and one of them breaks. Now you don't have to cut them all anymore!
Here's the solution.
1. 2.
3. 4.
5. 6.

Take a tea-bag and empty it. Cut a small piece to fit your crack. Apply a base coat on
the nail and, while it is still wet, apply the cut piece.Then, apply any nail polish you like.
That's it! I've recently read about this and I couldn't believe until I tried. It works for me.

THEATRE OF THE NAMELESS Fall/Winter 2011

Hi,
Today I'll show you the new nail polish collection from Illamasqua, called Theatre
of the nameless. It contains 4 vibrant shades for the new season. They are
hardwearing and chip-resistant with individual finishes from matt
to high gloss. Here they are:

Vice is a deep cherry color with a rubber finish. It's intense and eye-catching, perfect
for fall.

Kink, a deep green with rubber finish, too, that really looks pretty.

Taint is a nude color for those that don't want to wear intense colors. It's a brown that goes matte after it dries.

Last but not least, Faux. This is actually my favourite shade from this collection. The blue violet color mattifies after drying.

I also treid them with my Konad kit and here's how they look like when stamped.

In the end, I like them all. As always, Illamasqua nail polishes can be easily applied and the
dry-time is fast. The textures are delighting me, too.
What do you think?

Go to Illamasqua.com to see the entire Fall/Winter 2011 make-up collection.
