[sponsored] ORLY flash glam FX polishes

Good evening everyone,

last week I told you about a little package I’ve received from ORLY Germany.

Not only did they send the ORLY nail rescue kit, but also three pretty glitter polishes that are perfect for Halloween. Sadly these came a bit too late to show them during my #ScaryweenChallenge, but who the heck cares?

I think you can still wear scary Halloween nails even after Halloween.

So that’s what I wanted to show your today.

Mara’s Birthday nail art month – DAY 18

DAY 18

Hey everyone,

did you see me crazy colorful dotticure from Mara’s Birthday Nail Art Month – DAY 2?
Today I have a more discreet one for you, using only pastel colors.

Here is what I used:

Ciaté – PP151 Loop the Loop
Ciaté – PP104 pepperminty
Maybelline – Colorshow – LE Bleached Neons – 241 sun flare, 242 coral heat, 243 tropink, 244 chic chartreuse
ORLY – harmonious mess
O.P.I. – my boyfriend scales walls

For this manicure all you need are the different colors and a dotting tool. Just like the other mani I already showed you, start dotting the colors onto the nail. You can mix up bigger and smaller dots if you want. I only used the end creating bigger dots. Start with one color dotting away on each nail. After that use the next color and continue until there are no blank spots left.

This is without a top coat

This is with O.P.I.’s matte top coat

I like the pastel version of this manicure better than the colorful one.

How do you feel about it?

Mara’s Birthday nail art month – DAY 11

Posted by ☆『マラ』☆

DAY 11

Hello lovelies,

we are already at day 11 of my Birthday Nail Art Month, where I show you a new nail design everyday.

Today I choose three discreet colors, pastel colors. Two of them are from Maybelline’s LE Bleached Neons.

Here is what I used:

Maybelline Colorshow – Bleached Neons – 241 sun flare
ORLY – Harmonious Mess
Maybelline Colorshow – Bleached Neons – 244 chic chartreuse

What I did is easy. First apply two coats of the base color, harmonious mess, and let it dry completely.
For the next step you can either use french tip stickers to get a clean result or, if you are used to it like I am, free hand paint the orange tip (across, not horizontal) using Maybelline’s Bleached Neon 241 sun flare.

You could stop with the above step or use Maybelline’s 244 chic chartreuse and a dotting tool to dot on the line of the tip.
I only applied one coat of dots, but think two coats would have been better.
