Creative Nails Collab - Minimalist Nails

Hello nail art lovers,

This week's theme is all about sticking to the basics, creating very simple manicures and using your imagination to make something awesome while working with very little.

My choice was a fun manicure with kitties:

Hello, nail art lovers!

This week's theme is fruity and... sweet! I've had previous manicures inspired by fruit so this time I decided to change it up a bit. I present to you, my Piña Colada inspired nails!

Saturday's Theme - Emoticons

Hello, nail art lovers!

Smiiileee!!! Or just use an emoticon to do it :)
This week's theme is a very fun one and I had a lot of fun painting my nails. It's not a complicated manicure, however, I enjoyed it a lot.

June's Nail Challenge: I scream For Ice Cream!

Olla! ^_^

It's been really hot outside lately, don't you think? Hmm.. what would we need to cool down a bit? A drink, maybe a bath in the pool... a fresh lemonade...or ice cream? Well, I, for sure, scream for an Ice Cream when having to deal with this hot weather!

The girls from The Polish Addict had the same idea so, this week, without further introduction, we have... ICE CREAM NAILS!

Snowflakes on my nails! - BPS Stamping Plate BP-L032 Review

Happy New Year!!!

I want to start this year's first post by telling you that I had to cut my nails shorter than they've been for the past 3-4 months and that I absolutely love how they look! You weren't expecting that, were you? ^_^

But loooook! Aren't they adorable?


Anyway, this post isn't about how cute my short nails are, it's about the Birthday gift I received from bornprettystore.com : 

Because the post usually arrives late where I live, I received the parcel right after Christmas, and even though the plate is meant for X-mas, we still have a couple of months of winter (and it just started snowing in Romania) so I will use it as much as I can. :D


Today I have for you a review of the plate, it's named BP-L032 - Xmas Snowflake Nail Art Stamp Template Christmas Image Plate, and like the other plates I own from them (you can see the reviews here and here) was super easy to use. The snowflakes pattern was transferred perfectly onto the stamper and then onto my nails. 
Cleaning it was very fast and easy, as well, and I was impressed by how delightful stamping can be, with a high-quality plate. As I've said before, I haven't been disappointed by any of the BPS products, so far. :D
The price is very good, as well, only $5.99 for a big plate with loads of patterns to choose from.


The nail polishes I used are: Essence The Gel 33 Wild White Ways as a base, China Glaze - UV Meant to Be and Astor Laque Deluxe 595 VIP Silver for stamping, Flormar 392 to add a little sparkle.


I used the double stamping technique and the result was really magical, in my opinion. The snowflakes looked so cute in this color combo.

Here is a macro shot of my thumb nail, where you can see how perfect the design was transferred:

Nail Art Marathon 2015 - 29. Favorite Song

Hello, hello!

December is the first month of Winter and this, along with Mada's idea are what inspired me to do this manicure. :D

The song I chose is one of my all-time favorite songs: Frozen by Celldweller:

Fist time I heard this song was in 2008 and I fell in love with it instantly. It's so dark and mysterious and sexy! Needless to say, I know the lyrics by heart, he he.

1 Decembrie - Ziua Nationala a Romaniei

Hello!

Today is Romania's National Day and this is the first time I'm doing my nails for this event. I'm not a nationalist or anything similar, but I do like my country and, due to some changes going on in the political field, I kinda felt the need to express something with my nails, using the colors of our flag: red, yellow and blue.


Here's a little bit of history from Wikipedia:

"Great Union Day (Romanian: Ziua Marii Uniri, also called Unification Day[1]) occurring on December 1, is the national holiday of Romania. It commemorates the assembly of the delegates of ethnic Romanians held in Alba Iulia, which declared the Union of Transylvania with Romania.

This holiday was set after the Romanian Revolution and it marks the unification of Transylvania, but also of the provinces of Bessarabia and Bukovina with the Romanian Kingdom, in 1918."
