Channelesque + BM

I felt like a silly manicure again :)

I used China Glaze Channelesque as a base, just 1 nice coat. After it dried I used OPI Ski Tael We Drop with one of the Bundle Monster plates and used it only on half the nails, I though that would look nice...but it ended up silly :) just to complete the sillyness I topped it all with a layer of China Glaze Fairy Dust and used China Glaze Fast Forward Top Coat to finish it.

The reason for my silly mood.....today I found out my pharmacy has won a competition. The competition was about all area`s with their including pharmacies were tracked down on their selling numbers of the brand called Avene during a specific scheduled period. The one pharmacy who sold most during that time, could send 2 persones on a special 4-day trip to Avene the city in France, incl flight/stay/etc, where HQ is settled and even visit Toulouse as well....must admit we don`t know the exact set up of those 4 days yet...BUT!! big news incomming... We found out ours was the winning one of the region, and our pharmasist had the hard job to pick out the winning 2 going on the trip..and one of em is MEEEEEE yayayayay. I`m very happy, I have no idea what we`re gonna do there, we`re just gonna enjoy our stay and have fun :)

P2 haul :)

Last monday I went to Kleve, Germany, which is about 45 minutes drive from where I live. I sometimes go there by myself, but most of the times with a friend. When I was growing up, my parents went there as well, so I`ve been there loooadss of times now. The reason we go there is food shopping and make-up/body products. They have such different products available there and most prices are lower then "ours". For instance, baking products for pies and cakes, waaaayyy more different items available. Cake flavours, toppings, fillings etc etc.

Anyway...we also went to the drugstore called DM and I did some major P2 shopping :) They finally had P2`s cotton gloves, they`re always sold out when I go to the store :S , can use those when you have some nice cremes on and want to leave them on during the night. I bought their Quick Dry Spray as well, wanted to try it out, haven`t heard anyone about it yet. And ofc I "needed"  some color polishes as well ;)

*191 gigantic, a rich creme blue
* 248 rich,a deep purple with shimmers
* 249 dangerous, a teal creme
* 208 rich& royal, a taupe...perhaps mauve..nice color :)
* 207 stormy, a nudy beige with tiny shimmer
* matte topcoat

I`ll try to make some photo`s of these colors as well soon :)

Chanel Paradoxal

Wooop tie doooo. Seeing aaaaall the swatches of this color made me even want it more :) After buying it I placed it in front om my desk and been watching it for about 2 weeks now. I finally had the courage to take it out of teh box and paint my nails with it. First I washed my hands carefully...even used P2 hand exfoilliant ( which smells so nice of oranges ), applied my Sally Hansen, 2 thick layers of Paradoxal, and toped it with SecheVite. As soon as it was completly dry and didn`t creat dents I walked to teh room and just enjoyed the color. WOW!! I love this :)

Unfortunatly I had to make a quick snap before I had to ride my bike to the train, cause I had an important day of shopping with my friend ahead. So as you see my cuticles are very dry, but I solved that in the train with my yummy Sally cuticle oil :)

The picture only shows slight shimmer of the polish in the bottle, not of my nail, but I can assure it it was there!! Even my friend noticed it and she liked the color as well.

It was an extreme pain when I bought it...I think my paycard even has some damaging or even scars :S but it`s well worth it :) I`m wearing it for 3 days now and not a single sratch, nor any dents and it still shimmers :)

Channelesque + L8R G8R

Yay I had an awesome week...not only did my Herome plates arrive...my BundleMonster plates arrived as well, and this mornign I could pick up my package from eNailSupply. Will try out the new Zoya`s next week, but I had to try out Channelesque first and omg I love that color!! I ordered 2 bottles since I knew it`s a pain to get and I`d like to use the 2nd bottle for either swapping or one of the following give-aways, but applying the color made me wanna keep the other bottle as well haha.

I hope the pictures are okay, was already getting dark and I didn`t feel like walking downstairs for the light-box :S At least my weddingring looks great . If I`ll get too many complaints I`ll make some new photo`s, don`t worry!!

After applying Sally Hanson double-duty as a base-coat, I applyed 2 coats of Channelesque, and used image plate BM12 with L8R G8R from the OMG-collection ( both nailpolishes are from China Glaze ofc ). Topped it with SecheVite.

I like the way those holos really dance/play with the light, each angle gives a slight colorchange. I`d seen it with swatches from other bloggers and defo will try it more often :)

Catrice + Konad

I`ve done a little Konad  ;)

* First I used Sally Hansen double duty as a base-coat
* 2 layers of Catrice - From Dusk To Dawn 200, I love this brownish mauve
* used Konad image-plate M3 with Konads special nailpolish white to create the stars
* topped it all with SecheVite

W.I.C. (Herome) - Casablanca

Another color by Herome, only this one is from their W.I.C. collection, which stands for World Inspired Colors. My color is named Casablanca nr110, I didn`t pick it by name, just purely by color. It`s a soft lilac/mauve with shimmers. In the picture I`m wearing 2 layers without a base-coat, but topped it with SecheVite. It`s a very sheer color, but I like the softness of it.Just like the Koh one, it`s a sweet soft color.

W.I.C. collection has 79 different colors, all named by cities around the world. just as Koh colors vary from sheers, to shimmers, to cremes even duochromes. Can`t judge colors by pictures or even the website W.I.C. colors, have to see them rl really. Available mostly in Douglas shops around the Netherlands, but also in some retail shops. Even 1 in my town ;) weewooo.  The costs per bottle vary from 7,50euros to 7,95euros which I think is odd but okay. botles are 7ml. Dries fast, small cute bottle. I think it`s worth it, for me this is a quality product ( I own different Herome products and love em all).

OPI

Louvre me, Louvre me not, I think the best describtion to this would be frost..with it's tiny shimmers in it. Though it is purple...and I'm a big purple fan, this isn't my favorite one. It is my first OPI, and therefor I cherish it ;)

Parlez-vous OPI? , ooeehh love this mauve

Tickle my France-y, nudes dont look good on me, but this one does, specially on my feet and they even look more tanned when I use the polish.

OPI

DS-diamond,  a holographic violet/purple finish. Defo needs 2 or 3 layers. and preferable a special base coat for holo's.

DS-signatur, a holographic pink/mauve. Havent used this color yet :) but I`m almost certain it will be like DS-diamond.

Yokohama-collectie Baby Blue, a nice iridiscent that flashes between blue and gold, very very nice!! Couldnt get it at Transdesign since its a collection that only came out in Japan and Australia. Dollupnails sells them, nice fast delivery and very friendly people.

Yokohama-collectie Cherry Blossom, a nice cherry-clossom pink that looks a lot ike Princess Rule! yet this one is more coral, whilest Princess is more pinkish. I must admit the name of the color triggered my mind, since I used the Cherry Blossom theme a lot on my wedding day :) Still a very nice color which not a lot of people yet have.
