Maybelline - Winter baby & Essence show your feet - 17 lemon sorbet (Feet pictures!!!!!!!)

Almost a year I have had Maybelline's - 130 Winter Baby. I bought it so I can paint my nails white if I was doing a nail design that required white polish base.

After about 4-5 layers my nails looked like this..... not so opac and I think to get a even more white color on the nails I would be required to add at least 2-3 layers more!
Winter Baby.... strange now when spring has arrived and it's like almost 20* C here in Sweden

Last time I traveled was to Germany, Hamburg and Bremen, and one of the many bargains I did was this essence polish from the show your feet collection with the name 17 lemon sorbet. Which cost me €0,90
I will spare you all the feet pictures and only post one of my big toe... gross enough :/ 
As you can see it really is in  the color of Lemon Sorbet since it is a light yellow polish.. I think it's like 2 or 3 layers of polish... I did them quick in the car since we where going to a party and I hadn't  done my toenails....

Essence - Peel off Base Coat

I bought this when I was in Germany to help me take away my glitter nail polishes, since I have so many but rarely use them since it is a pain in the ass to take it away.

To be honest it was like painting with glue. It has the same consistence and it looks like it on the nail to before it dries up. You have to wait 2 hrs before you can wash your hand since it has to be dry and not peel of immediately.  

all my nails got clean really fast, even if I didn't use Peel off on all my nails, I only used it on the nails where I painted with glitter nail polish.

I really liked it but if your not willing to spend money on it I suggest you to use normal glue :)

Essie - Bahama Mama & OPI - Pink yet Lavender

On Monday (yeah I know it's Thursday today) I painted my nails with two new polishes that my friend Rica bought to me in NY :) Thank you hun! 120 kr for both of them, instead of paying 130kr for the Essie and 150kr for the OPI. That was one hell of a bargain.

Any hows nuff said about the money issue. I painted all my nails with Bahama Mama and I only had Pink yet Lavender on my ring fingers, but first I put a layer of Essence - Peel off  Base Coat. The thing I did WRONG, was to paint Models Own - 3 in 1 over my finished nails.
I know this is a blurry picture but it's more so you can see the different of the colors. My thumb nail (the top nail) I painted once again with Bahama Mama and my middle finger  has Bahama Mama and topped of with Models Own - 3 in 1. 

Bahama Mama is a deep purple with red. And not purple that I became with the top coat :( 

Here you can see the finished result of Essie - Bahama Mama and OPI - Pink yet Lavender.
Picture of the bottles
And here is a close up on my nails, on with the just Bahama Mama and one with also a layer of Pink yet Lavender.

ps. this time all the pictures where taken with my cellphone.
ps.2 next time I will show you how the Essence - Peel off  Base Coat worked on my ring finger nail.

OPI - Barefoot in Barcelona ( BEWARE - Foot Picture!!!!!! )

Hey people,

if your get easy nauseous for seeing feet then you should probably not continue reading......


One of my bargains that I bought in Germany was OPI's Barefoot in Barcelona for only €2,90 at the airport (only cos I had the €10 coupon). Why I bought Barefoot in Barcelona is cos I lived in Barcelona for a half year and when I heard there was a color called "....Barcelona", I was intrigued on how it looked and if it was worth buying... well obviously it was since I have it here at home now.

Since I already had done my nails I had to use the other nails I have - on my feet :P

So here goes, my foot
Barefoot in Barcelona is a brown/nude polish with a hint of pink and it makes my toenails kind of blend in with the rest of the feet, which 6 o'clock in the morning is very terrifying.. I went half asleep to the toilet and almost freaked out cos of the nails.. well well...

I think it's a nice nude color!

nails inc. - Royal Mews & Paris inspired nail art

Yesterday when I was sitting and waiting for the family to come I did a french manicure on my nails with some Paris inspired nail art (cos my cousin and his girlfriend did a stop there on there Europe trip)
But please ignore my failed mustache :/ 
 Models Own - Black nail art pen that I got for free last year when you bought 2 nail polishes from Models Own and nails inc. - Royal Mews that I bought at a blog sale last year. Royal Mews is a silver holographic that is really nice and not screaming holographic.

Ooops

sorry that I haven't blogged in a while.

Last time I blogged was before the Hurts concert on the 18th of March and then the sad news that the Royal Mail has taken my OPI - The Man With The Golden Gun, the thing is that after that I have only worn nailpolish once more... but I forgot to take picture of it.

I wore: 
the polishes that I got from my friend Anna, they are from Korea.

Yesterday I came back from my trip to Germany, was there from the 2nd of April...so not many days but oooooooh so many shops (mostly Rossmann's) to buy polish in :)


A post about everything I bought in Germany will hopefully come up tomorrow, since I have to take pics of all.

Well good night :)

:(

it seams like my package of OPI - The Man With The Golden Gun won't arrive... it's been 19 days since Sophie, the girl that sold it to me sent it.... Yesterday I mailed her and she says that it's not the first time she has gotten mail about this. The Royal Mail in UK has started to destroy "Dangerous Goods" and nailpolish is according to there homepage:

Flammable liquids
This includes mixtures of liquids or liquids containing solids in solution or suspension which give off a flammable vapour. Any liquid with a closed cup flash point below 60.5° C is prohibited e.g. acetone, benzene, cleaning compounds, gasoline, lighter fuel, paint thinners and removers, petroleum and solvents, certain alcoholic beverages, perfumes and aftershaves, varnishes and enamels including nail varnish.

I who really wanted that polish.

Hurts

Ohhhhh me so happy :)

 Tomorrow, Monday, I'm going to Stockholm to see Hurts

and of course I wanted some matching design on my nails for the concert... The things is that almost 100% of all the pictures that exists on Adam and Theo are in black and white (or should I say grey). So I decided to paint my nails with H&M's "Miss Stone Heart", which I got for 5kr (£0.50 , $0.78,  €0.60).

After that I painted with  Matte Top Coat also from H&M and then it was time for some nail art... I ended up doing branches on 4 nails and also a Blackbird in my ring finger nail.... On my thumb I did a black tree (really ugly) with silver lining, which is the name of one of the songs from Hurts.
This is my left hand
Since I'm a right handed person my nails on the left hand always look sooooooo much better and the right hand is always a little bit neglected, but I did paint them this time, some times they will only get base coat, but today I pulled thru :)

 Some time ago I saw on Adams or Theos Instagram a picture with 2 crocked crosses ( I can't find them anymore, perhaps someone got upset about them and they had to take them away), so I painted that on my ring finger on my right hand.

OPI - Moonraker & You glitter be good to me

After the colorful polishes that I had on my nails during the weekend I wanted to go back to a more softer shade, that didn't scream out...

so I took Moonraker from the James Bond Collection and added some glitter on my ring finger nail.
To be honest Moonraker is the WORST polish I have had on my nails!!!!!! EVER

Just look at this pic of my nails....is the day after I applied 2 layers of polish and it has already peeled of so much that you can almost completely see my nail AND the formula was sooooooo watery which made it hard to apply :(

Essie - Stylenomics

Last week I was in Stockholm for a job interview and I finished before the estimated time they had said for it and therefore I was to early for my train back home.

So what I did waiting for my train was to walk the shopping street up and down ( Drottninggatan) and I went in to H&M to find the SALE's box.....

AND I found Essies Stylenomics for 60kr instead of 125kr

It's a dark green color and on the nails it looks more black then green
