My Vuitton Nails

Hey girls!

I'm back today with some pretty cool nails! Thanks to Spellbinding Nails, I've won some great stamping plates that I was willing to buy. Particularly the FUN2 plate from Fab Ur Nails. And the first design I wanted to try is the Louis Vuitton one. To do something similar to the well-known purse motif, I applied two coats of Bourjois Brun Laqué. And I used Essie Good as Gold for the stamping!


I can't afford a Vuitton purse, but at least I have some pretty awesome Vuitton nails! 



About the plate, I was impressed by the quality of the designs. They transfer very well, and they are very detailed.
I'd totally recommend you these plates if you don't have them already! You can find everything about the plates here and you can order them here!

What do you think about it? I'll be parading all day with these Vuitton nails!!

Have a nice day!

Peggy Sage - Féérique Mauve

Today I wanted to try one of the latest polish that I got from Peggy Sage which is "Féérique Mauve (223)".
I was completely seduced by the gold reflects it had, and when I applied it, it dried pretty quickly!
Here we go :



See? I love that depending on the lighting, the color looks so different!!
I added a little stamping that I did with the Mash-37 plate and Passion from China Glaze.




What do you think about it?

OPI - Over the Taupe


Hey there!!

OPI's Over the Taupe, is in fact the first OPI polish that I have ever bought. It was a few years ago!
I 'd been looking for this kind of taupe for a while, and when I saw that OPI made the perfect one, I knew I had to get it. At that time, OPI wasn't available everywhere in France. Only some Sephora stores were selling it. And that's where I found it! Too bad they were a little pricy. And they still are. I don't know why but here in France, an OPI polish costs about 14€ (18$). Pretty expensive, isn't it?
But, this is the perfect taupe!! Not too light and not too dark. I made a little stamping over it using my Konad M70 plate and Joy from China Glaze.




What about you? What was your first OPI polish?

So this weeks theme chosen by Andreia and Odile is fall. And we had to use some orange. So I took my Fear or Desire and stamped it with some falling leaves! And here's the result :

#TheSundayNailBattle - Back to School Nails

This week's theme for the Sunday Nail Battle is "Back to school Nails".

I've been thinking about what I was going to do for a while and I first wanted to draw some lines on my nails to do a kind of lined paper effect.
But as I was preparing my stuff to do the mani, I remembered that there was another course at school where we had to use a different kind of lined paper, which was music.

So here's what I did :




Can't wait to see the ideas people had for this battle!!

Good luck for those of you who are going back to school!

I'm glowing in the dark thanks to Nocibé


During my holiday, I took some time to do some shopping!

I went to Nocibé, a french beauty retailer like Sephora, and I found this little bottle of polish which immediately amazed me!
This is the Dark Light Top Coat, it costs 6,90€ and you can find it on their online store (sorry no international shipping yet ..) !



After exposing your nails to some light, either sunlight or artificial light it doesn't really matter, you'll magically see your phosphorescent nails !! It works as the stickers, or those phosphorescent things that glow in the dark. And contrary to some polishes I've seen, it's really glowing on its own in the dark, you don't need any black light.

So here's what my mani look like :


And now we shut the lights off :






The lighter the base will be and better will be the result!! Do not hesitate to make two coats of polish to intensify the effect!!

I love it, and I think that it will be great for party nights :p

What do you think about it?

Kiko Cosmetics - Holographic Nail Lacquer - Jewel Pink


Hey there!

How are you going? Hope everything's fine for you girls!

I already told you how much I loved Kiko's Magnetic nail polishes and when I saw that for their Lavish Oriental collection, they had holographic nail polishes, I felt like I had to get them! When I saw the swatches on some other blogs, I fell in love with the 401 - Peacock Green and the 402 - Jewel Pink. I even asked my brother to buy them for me in Paris, to be sure to have them!! But when I went to Kiko's store in Rennes (next to where I live), and when I saw the two other colors which are the 399 - Silk Taupe and the 400 - Steel Grey, well I didn't resist long, and I bought them. And now I have all of these wonderful polishes! And I love them!!


Aren't these colors gorgeous??
Today we're going to start with the 402 - Jewel Pink. This holographic pink is outstanding! You don't need to apply a specific base before applying this polish (like the aqua base..). I used my standard Essie protein base. Only two coats are necessary to have a nice coverage!




I love how this polish catches the light!! I can't stop looking at my nails!
I decided to try some stamping with the 399 - Silk Taupe and here's the result : 



Perfect!! All of these holographic work perfectly for stamping, it's pretty awesome no?
I'm definitely in love with these new polishes and they're totally worth the price : only 4,90€ each.

Did you buy any of these holographic polishes? Do you like the result?

#TheSundayNailBattle - Matte Finish VS Glossy Finish

This week, the theme chosen by  Andreia and Odile is Matte Finish VS Glossy Finish. 

The most difficult part was not to achieve the manicure, but to decide what I was going to do. I had so much ideas !

So I decided to try some matte stamping and here's the result :




Pretty simple, isn't it?

Kiko - Copper Red

I already told you about how cool Kiko's magnetic nail polishes were! I also told you how I regretted not buying the red one... Well now I got it! It was the last one on the shelf of the Kiko store we went in with my sister and I'm so glad I have it.
The color is as I had imagined it :



I couldn't resist trying some stamping on it. I chose a zebra design that I think goes well with the magnetic stripes And here it is :





What do you think about it? I love it!!

xoxo!
