NOTD - Turquoise Dazzle

Hey everyone!
Im back with a new look and im rather pleased to say it turned out pretty nice to me, haha.

I was looking to buy a couple of new China Glaze nail paints online and came across "Turned Up Turquoise".
Now I usually shy away from really bright colours and almost NEVER wear blues and purples, but it struck out to me, so I took a chance with it.
I was really excited to play with it but couldnt think of what to pair it up with.

I applied two coats and this colour was STUNNING by itself, so I swatched a zebra print on one nail and the criss cross on another and then just decided to wear it like this :)


Here are some pictures :

Products Used:

China Glaze Turned Up Turquoise

China Glaze Millenium

Unfortunately I chipped a nail on my right hand and had to file the rest down :(

Hope you enjoy though :)

NOTD - Golden Stripe

I know I just made a post, but I couldnt wait to share another look with you :)
This took quite a bit of time (and masking tape haha) but it was worth it!
I dont usually wear colours too loud, but this looked kind of cool to me.


Products Used:

Pure Ice Wild Thing

China Glaze 2030

Sinful Colors Black on Black

Konad Image Plate #m36

Sally Hansen Diamond Shine


Those gold strips were probably the hardest thing, but if you line the nails with some masking tape (AFTER the base coat is COMPLETELY DRY)

And then of course, I could not decide what Konad image to use, so I put it just on one nail :)

Hope you enjoy!


NOTD - Matte Love

Hey all! I have not updated this blog for a while.
But...I do have a couple of new things coming up, so stay tuned :)

Last week I did a look with black nail paint - which is my absolute favourite!
I played with CG Matte Magic, but decided to add a twist from the conventional black matte nail.



Products Used :

Sinful Colors - Black on Black
CG Matte Magic
Sally Hansen Diamond Shine (On the tips)



The close up is kind of blurry,
but I hope you can see the use of matte on the entire nail and a clear coat on the tips :)


I did however run into issues with Matte Magic - it chips super fast and easy.
I LOVE this look, but cant get it to stay on my nails for too long :( Any suggestions?


For now though, hope you enjoyed!
