China Glaze - 1344 No Peeking! (UPDATE)

Hello all,

some days ago I posted that I had bought this


from China Glaze which contains 1344 No Peeking and 1345 Dancing & Prancing.

Today I'm going to show you No Peeking since that is the one I have on my nails. 



I "normal" light it almost looks like the nailpolish is brown-ish, but as you all can see with flash it is a metallic purple. I painted my nails with 3 layers of polish and then had Seche Vite Top Coat. What I don't like with China Glaze is that the brush is so small, when it comes to the width of it. It makes it harder to get a good layer when you paint. Otherwise I really like China Glaze. It is just recent it has arrived in big scale to Sweden. It started off that H&M had a small display and this one I found at the pharmacy and they had a big display with colors that I hadn't seen before.

SO WELCOME China Glaze to Sweden :)

New polishes - China Glaze and Seche Vite


 I went down to the city after my exam on Thursday to do my Christmas shopping and I went in to the  Pharmacy and found this! A biiiiiiiiiig China Glaze display and also this Christmas package (Sprinkle some Twinkle), I obviously bought this since this was 2 bottles for 129 kr instead of 99 kr for each bottle in the display. 


So these are the colors:  1344 No Peeking! and 1345 Dancing & Prancing


There was also 6 nail guides so that you can do french manicure or moon manicure, in the package. 

 
I also, since it was the 11th of December (my saints day) went to Kicks. Each year they have an advent calender and on the 11th they (at least this and last year) had half price for the Seche Vite. So I bought 2 just to be on the safe side. I also bought a nail polish correcter, apparently Kicks is the only place that have one that is not worth a fortune...even H&M don't have one (scandal!!!).

Watermarble in black and blue

yet again I did a watermarble but this time with a blue color instead of the white that I did last time.


I know this picture isn't the best but it captures H&M - Nail Him the best of all the pics I took. So this time just as last time, I also used this black from Bissu that doesn't have any name. I started with painting all my nails with Nail Him.


Which will leave your nails looking like this, maybe, then you add tape around your nails so that you don't have to clean so much when your done with the water marbling. Add water to a glass and open up all the bottles of polish that you are going to use and start dripping down in the water, don't drip to far away from the glass because that can make that the drip goes all the way to the bottom of the glass. It's better if you drip closely to the water. Then when you think you have the amount of rings of color in the glass take a toothpick and drag it the way you want the rings to go. And gently dip your nail(s) in the water. 


This is how my nails looked like afterwards, it can be all kinds of motives since it's all about how you place your nails in and how you have done the rings with the toothpick.

hēhē stamping plates with Harry Potter motive


So on Tuesday I got a note from the Post that I had a package waiting for me so on Wednesday when I had a long break at work I walked to the post office and got my very small box. In it was my 12 hēhē stamping plates with Harry Potter motives. 

I also got a stamper and scraper for free 


This is perhaps a better picture of the stamping plates. It's a bit a hard to take photos of stamping plates since they are so shinny

Watermarble in black and white


So two days ago I uploaded this to my Instagram, it was late in the evening and as always I was in front of the computer doing my nails. I have previously done water marbling on my nails but always thought it looked ugly and that I hadn't done it correctly. But two days ago I think I actually made I great job with this black and white watermarble. 


I used this two nail polishes. China Glaze White on White, not only for the marble but also as the base on the nails, and Bissu in black (there is no names on the bottles)...
