:(

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 :(

Tomorrow I'm going to a class party with my current class at Uni....they thing is I hardly speak with my classmates :/ let's see if we can make a change in that ^-^

So I want to have nice nails when I'm gonna party with them, so I decided on OPI Fly and Save me! from the Nicki Minaj Collection. Fly is a cream polish that is easy to apply and covers nice after 2 layers. Save me! is a multi - colored glitter with holo.

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

H&M - Nice N' Naughty & Rimmel - 500 Disco Ball

Yesterday I painted my nails with H&M's Nice N' Naughty and Rimmel's Disco Ball.

Disco Ball is a glitter polish with very small silver glitter and bigger pink and blue glitters. And Nice N' Naughty is a metallic grey polish .
I think the grey polish has a blue undertone
Here you can see my very short nails :(
Disco Ball do glitters in all colors not only the silver, pink and blue that the glitter is in


Short nails

I had to cut my nails :(


And why they are blue-ish is cos of Maybellines Colorama 654 Superpower Blue (read about it here). ALWAYS have base coat under polishes and if it's a really pigmented color like Maybellines then use 2 coats of base coat.

New additions

So there has been some new additions to all my polishes... Mostly cos of sales


ASOS:
OPI - Moonraker from the James Bond Collection, Models Own - Cooper Pot and Golden Green from the Beetlejuice Collection and Rimmel - 239 Your Majesty and 500 Disco Ball.

And YES they where cheaper ... :)

OPI is normally 150 kr and now I got it for 64kr 
Models Own is normally 58 kr (or something around that) but now I got them for 34 and 40 kr
and Rimmel to the normal cheap price 29 kr. 

SALE in Stores:
 Past a store that is closing and it was 30% off everything
So I bought OPI - Casino Royale from the James Bond Collection, DS Luxurious and DS Mystery and Mavala - Mexico
 OPI was 139 kr each before and Mavala was 45 kr before  MINUS the 30 % :)

Then at H&M I got this to for 10kr each... Oh la la and Wanna pepperoni

Then also my friend Anna gave me this 2 polishes from Korea... nr 49 and 74 from the brand innisfree

OPI - Lucky Lucky Lavender

Hello :)

So today I'm gonna show you a swatch of OPI's Lucky Lucky Lavender from the Hong Kong Collection. Lavender you say....mmmmm or NOT. I think it's more PINK. Either way it's still a very nice color and after 2 layers it's perfect. The polish is a cream polish which covers the nail really good.


 
And since it was Valentines Day, I added 2 hearts on my thumb 
(they are the ones that I bought at Primark on my trip to Madrid)
 

And as always, the color of the polish varies from what kind of light it's in. I always take my pictures in closeup with flash.

OPI - DS Mystery & Nail Art - Rock Chic

Hello people :)

so last week I told you about the nail art kit that Kimmie bought me in UK (read about it here), well and that I was going to do something with it on my nails for the weekend. Well I went "out" Friday, only to a pre-party and then I came with unpolished nails (arrrgh so ugly) but Sunday night I decided to do my nails. Anya and me had been down town earlier in the week and we stumbled across a sale (30% on everything in the store, since they are closing down). The normal price for OPI in this store was 139 kr and the Mavala 45kr.... So I bought:

OPI - DS Mystery
OPI - DS Luxurious
OPI - Casino Royale
Mavala - Mexico (that was one of my first polishes when I was little)

The DS Collection from OPI is very rare here in Sweden and to be honest I haven't seen one single bottle of it before in my hometown...

Well what can I say about DS Mystery..it's a dark purple shade with goldie shimmer and with 2 layers on the nails it's almost black

I used some of the things in the nail art kit Kim bought me at River Island in UK.
I used 1 pearl and 4 metal square studs to make like a cross, but I promise it will come more things with the Rock Chic nail art, specially before the Hurts concert I'm going to in March :)



Here you can see the goldie shimmer in the polish

OPI - The living daylights and ModelsOwn - Ibiza Mix = Dupes?

Hello ladies and gents,

when I was going thru all my polishes to rearrange my Helmer (read about it here), not going to be my last time, I got the feeling that I had many from the same kind of color.... as nail polish people say: Dupes (from the word duplicate)

Well today I will show you two polishes that kinda looks like dupes but are they?


Both of them have big hexagons in blue/green, red/pink, silver and gold. The only difference is that Models Own's has also small hexagons in the same colors.

I think that they are very similar, but not really dupes ( in my opinion dupes should be exactly the same)...

Well when it comes to price of the polishes then it's a big difference.... In Sweden one bottle of OPI costs 150 kr and you can't buy Models Own in Sweden so then you have to find it on the internet and it's normally a bout 58 kr (I buy from ASOS).

Sorry but the prices you can all calculate yourself folks :P

Nail Art - Rock Chic

Yesterday my friend Kim came back from UK,where she has studied since August, and I meet her today. I asked her to buy me some stuff....well apparently the staff at Superdrug in UK doesn't know that on their homepage they have 8 (!) Hello Kitty polishes for £2.49 each, cos they just stared at Kim and laughed at her :(

But at least she could buy this Nail Art wheel from River Island for £3,50 without problem. I will soon test the studs on my nails, perhaps for this weekends party :)

OPI - Black Cherry Chutney

Late last year I bought some polishes at a blog sale....something that is very new for me.

One of the polishes was OPI's Black Cherry Chutney



It's a dark burgundy, almost black on the nails. It kind of reminds me of German-icur by OPI from the Germany Collection from last year. Black Cherry Chutney comes from the India Collection from some years ago. It's a really nice looking color and I like it a lot :)
