NOTD: Citrus Fresh "Orange Juice"

     Hi everyone!

    Today I was inspired by an orange that I ate earlier so I thought I would do a pretty popular these days nail design featuring citrus fruits and this is what I came up with:

  • I started off by applying my new orange from Classics - I talked about this in my previous haul;                                                                




  • Then I added my -also new- Glitter polish from Golden Rose

  •  And using white acrylic I started 
drawing half circles on my ring finger and on my thumb








  •  And then I just painted the top part of the half circles with green, dark orange and yellow and added small slightly lighter triangles on each of them.

                                                                                       (right hand)
AND THAT'S IT! 

                                                                     
                                                                      (left hand)

          I really hope you liked this!

HAUL

     This is my first haul and I'm not sure if I'll do this regularily but I just wanned to share some things I got the other day because I really really like them alot!

     First, I got an eyeshadow quad perfect for summer in my opninion, I love the way it complements my skin and I might show you guys some pics of the makeup I intend to wear alot this summer. The quad is called "Ombre a Paupieres" from Ruby Rose Cosmetics, a pretty cheap brand.
      Then I got this amazing orange-coraly lipstick from Miss Sporty which is called Bubble Gum (how cute is that!:D) and I just love the way it makes me look alot more tanned than I actually am :X
       Last but not least I got -how else- some nail polishes:
  • a cute very fresh looking green frum Gabrini, no. 401
  • an orange colour to match my lipstick (haha kidding) from Classics, no 270
  • and a glitter from Golden Rose Paris, no 70.
       Here you have a picture of all the products (sorry about the lighting )



          And the swatches for the lipstick and the eyeshadows:



       Hope you enjoyed this! And let me know if you've tried any of these products and your opinion on them!

Colourful Zebra Print Nails

Hey guys!


      Today I'll be showing you a very funky and crazy nail design that I made and I don't really remember where I got my inspiration for this but I do know I got alot of compliments on it :D 






       I don't think you can see so well in the pictures but I used 3 colours: pastel yellow, pastel green and a nice pink as a base, just horizontal large stripes to cover my whole nail and I've blended them a little at the line where they meet (wih a needle or a toothpick while they're still wet). Then I used black acrylic paint and a striping brush to create the zebra print. And I just added topcoat and a matte topcoat for the ring finger. 

       Hope you like it!
