Cat and paws nails inspired by Cutepolish

So last night I took away the other nailpolish I had on my nails and painted this... Today we are going to Stockholm to see Ed Sheeran and I thought this design would fit quite well for the occasion ( Ed has a cat paw tattooed on his arm, the previous CD, +,  was orange and he likes cats...). Yeah I know, it's not like he ever gonna see my nails but I like the design and every time I get the chance to do something I have seen and liked then I take the chance to do it :) 

I started off by painting my nails with a Base coat and then I did french manicure with the black and orange polishes. I did 2 layers so that it was opac. I then took the dotting tool and made the paws on the orange tips. On the black tips, as you can see, I added more black to do the cat face, ears and tail.

This is all the polishes I uses: Ridge Filling Base Coat from Seche, Manhunter from H&M, 02 hello summer! from Essence, 944 Innocent from Sinful Colors, SPA12 Black and SPA02 White from Kiss Nail Art Paint and Dry Fast Top Coat from Seche Vite. And my dotting tool..

A lil pic with the bottles. Manhunter is my favorite black, which I notice yesterday when I painted...it's almost empty :-(

Here is Cutepolish video on how to do this, just follow Sandi's directions and you will be all fine :)

Sheer tints. How to and manicure.

 Some days ago I did my own Sheer Tints ( I can't pay $25 for each Sheer Tint from OPI) after I saw a video that Nails By Joha did on Instagram. I know I did something similar at the age of 14 so it's not something new but I have never thought of having a white base and then do nail art with it... 

This is how I did: I used China Glaze Purple Panic, Sinful Colors Innocent (which I call "the Shrek green") and a blue from Primark (that turned purple after some days of mixing the polishes). I used clear polishes from Bissu (for the pink), FOF (for the green) and H&M (for the blue/purple) and I then added about 20 drops of the polishes I had decided for. Give it a good stir and then you have Sheer Tints in the colors of your choice :) 

 So today I painted my nails (on top of the Pink Mist from H&M) with China Glaze White on White and the sheer tints.

Sinful Colors - 102 Purple Diamond

Today I painted my nails with 102 Purple Diamond from Sinful Colors, this is like 2-3 layers and it is still quite shear. I think I have to paint a base first or more layers to make it more visibly. 

January Month Manis

Well well it's soon a new month but first I'm going to show you the manis I have been wearing this month..

World Diabetes Day

Hello,

right now I'm on my way to the capital of Sweden, Stockholm, to meet some friends that I don't see that often. So today I'm blogging from a moving buss 😁 

This past Thursday it was World Diabetes Day, even if I wrote International Diabetes Day on Instagram (oh well well). My dad was diagnosed with Diabetes this January and since then we have changed our food habits and both dad and me have lost weight. Since it was World Diabetes Day you should paint your nails in blue. Well I did that and also tried water marbling for the first time and to be honest I'm impressed on how good it turned out for being my first time 😊

I really like painting my nails 💅 and I don't feel complete with bare nails. 

This is the finished result of my nails on Thursday :-) 

What I have been wearing (both hands and feet)

 Hello all,

so new day and a new post :) I have been bad on posting, but this was only due cos I didn't have my computer while I was on the trip, it was enough with cellphone.. 

I started of my trip with a very funny combination, unfortunately the picture is not good since it was already night, I was sitting in a car and the flash didn't wanna work... but yeah

 It's SinfulColors - 944 Innocent and Sally Hansen - 700 Wool Knot

 after that I went liquid sand with OPI's Pussy Galore and Magazine cover mouse

 Before leaving USA I painted my nails with OPI's - Can't find my Czechbook and SinfulColors - 940 Rise and Shine

When I came home I panted my nails with OPI's Hawaiian orchid and made small flowers with the Art Deco - Intense Pink and a yellow nail art pen that I have from before.

 I got my toe nails done in Chinatown, don't ask me the name of the polish I only know that it was Orly, but I don't remember the name :/ which I regret that I didn't write down cos I like the color... Really nice people in the store, went spent almost 2 hrs there if I'm not mistaking, we talked about everything while they where doing my friends nails and then my toe nails. 

(OH btw, if I get negative comments on my feet I will just assume it's cos your so damn jealous of my California tanned cute little feet, I don't think your feet is better looking then mine.....)

 Yesterday I painted my nails with OPI's - Alcatraz.....rocks , one of the liquid sands from the new OPI collection called SAN FRANCISCO (convenient me being there and all this fall). It's a very nice and glittery blue liquid sand which my camera has a slight problem with since it can't focus cos of all the glitter that sparkles.

oh something extra...

Saturday I was in Stockholm for work, we had reunion with all the kids that went abroad this summer and there they where giving out magazines and when we where leaving, there where still a pile and I looked thru them and found one that had nailpolish :) SO this a Raspberry colored polish..
