• Hi everyone!


    The sixth week of the 52 week nail art challenge is... hearts! (of course it had to be something related to Valentine ;)
    I decided to fully immerse myself into the upcoming holiday and picked all reds and pinks to do my manicure with. This is the result:


  • Hi everyone!


    It's the third time Michelle and I challenge each other with a polish one of us picks and an image of a stamping plate to use with it is chosen by the other. This time Michelle picked China Glaze Glittering Garland as polish and the plate I selected is Hello Maniology (formerly Bundle Monster) BM-412, the top image with the interlocking dots.

    This is what I created with them:



  • Hi everyone!


    2020 steadily moves on, so this is the fifth installment of the Nail Art Challenge already: Blue + Gold. This one was a bit of a struggle but after seeing a gorgeous blue that I couldn't put out of my mind, here's is what happened when I started playing with it:



  • Hi everyone!


    The last Friday (and actually the last day) of January so the fourth year of Triads has begun. Can you believe Juanita, Michelle and I have been doing this for three years already? Juanita picked the inspiration for this month: marble and rose gold by Marta from manicure.d. And after some (read: a lot!!) struggling this is what I came up with:


  • Hi everyone!


    Week 4 of the 52 week nail art challenge has arrived. That means January is almost over... who pushed the fast forward button?! But the show must go on, and this week the prompt is zigzag. Let me show you what I did with it:


  • Hi everyone!


    No weekly, bi-weekly or monthly challenge this time, just pretty polishes :)

    I can't look anywhere without seeing Frozen. No matter how I try, even the ads on websites show this hugely popular Disney movie and so I decided to try my hand at a Frozen-themed manicure. Here's the result:


  • Hi everyone!


    This week's prompt for the 52 week nail art challenge is Metallic. Usually, I stamp with metallics/chromes and mattify them, but this time I wanted to try something different and leave my nails glossy. This is the result:


  • Hi everyone!


    The second installment of Michelle and me challenging each other with a polish one of us chose and an image from a plate the other picked. This time I picked the polish (Colors by Llarowe Berries in the Snow) and Michelle picked the plate (Pueen 103, bottom left). Michelle doesn't own Berries so after some deliberating we settled on ILNP Black Orchid for her as that is supposed to be a dupe for Berries. And after the selection process was done, we were ready to start painting!

    This is what I created:

  • Hi everyone!


    The second prompt of the 52 week nail art challenge is School. The first thing that I think of when I think about school is the huge blackboard that was hanging on the wall and the teacher using her pointer to focus our attention on something... or slapping the same pointer against the board if we didn't stop making a ruckus (but that fortunately for both pointer and board didn't happen too often ;) Also, our blackboards weren't black at all, they were dark green and when you held the chalk the wrong way, they produced the most horrible squeaking sound that can still send shivers down my spine just thinking about it!

    Since manicures are usually soundless, I left that part out of my highly impractical rendition of the blackboard of my youth:
