Indescribable colour

This is what my nails looked like last week. I really don’t know how to describe the colour, but I like it. And I think the black and white confetti is a nice touch.

New Year nails

When I sat down to do my nails for New Year’s I decided to match them to the make-up look I wanted to do, so I went with silver and blue and I really like the two colours together.

Christmas nails

Another nail post already! So unlike me. Anyhow, I thought I would show you my Christmas nails. On my gift Advent calendar on December 20 I got a set of three L’Oréal nail polishes and I’ve used two of them for this look, 404 Scarlet Vamp and Gold Leaf top coat. I’m very impressed by the Gold Leaf top coat; I think it looks beautiful on top of the red nail polish.

Season appropriate nails

I bought this dark bordeaux nail polish last year I think, but I haven’t worn it until now. I think the colour is really pretty and very appropriate for the season. I decided to apply some black rhinestones for a little extra something.

(Btw, I know the application isn’t perfect, but whatcha gonna do)

Drugstore goodies

I’ve run out of my favourite nail polish top coat, and I think it might be discontinued, so I needed a new top coat. Since my last one was from Rimmel I decided to try another one from Rimmel, and so far so good. Because there was a 3 for 2 deal on Rimmel I obviously picked up to more products. I decided to get the Lasting Finish 25H foundation which is a full coverage foundation. I already have the 25H nude one which is the medium coverage version, and I love that one, and so far I like this one too. The last Rimmel product I bought was another Provocalips liquid lipstick. It’s in the colour 500 Kiss Me You fool, and it’s a gorgeous bright red. The drugstore also had a 2 for 1 deal on Maybelline mascaras so I stocked up on my favourite. As you can see I also bought some new eyelash curlers, because my old ones had seen better days:)

Yellow pop art

This is what my nails have looked like the past week. I wanted to try out this top coat and decided to wear a yellow nail polish underneath. I have to say that I’m a bit disappointed in the top coat. Rimmel nail polishes are some of my favourites, but this top coat is thick and it’s very difficult to get the confettis to stay on the nails, so I applied two coats for more confettis, but I don’t think it helped much. It started to chip rather quickly as well, so this is not my favourite nail polish purchase, but I will probably try to make it work again some other time.

Top coat and concealer

Pop Art + True Match 1

As you know I haven’t been purchasing a lot of make-up the past couple of months, and I’m dying to shop! Last week I did buy these two little products. The nail polish top coat was on sale and I thought it would look cute on top of a lot of different colours. I’m wearing it right now, so I will tell you more about it in my next nail post. I’m soon running out of my favourite concealer, and due to the fact that I can’t get in Denmark, I thought I would try another one. I’ve been wanting to try the L’Oréal True Match concealer for a while, because there’s a shade light enough for my skin. It’s a very liquidy concealer and the coverage is not the best in my opinion, so I won’t be using it to cover up spots, but I do quite like it as an under eye concealer.

Pastels

This is what my nails have looked like this past week. I’ve been wanting to paint my nails in different pastel colours for a while, and I finally got around to doing it. It’s quite cute, isn’t it?

Pink rhinestone

This is what my nails looked like last week. I used to wear this nail polish (it’s an old Max Factor one) all the time, but I hadn’t worn it in a while. I decided to add a little rhinestone on the nails on my middle fingers for a little extra something. Btw, sorry for the messy application; I tried to clean up afterwards.
