My latest swap :)

Can't believe I haven't showed you all this omg...cause I've been using the eyeshadows and blush for quite a bit now...

A while ago I had a swap with Anouk from CupcakeBeauty, she sent me a suprise swap package filled with goodies I love! We did agree on some color "requirements" but rest was all a big secret ;)

Look at that cute bag with the poodle!!! It was filled with some samples grey matte eyeshadow by Esenceand a quad as well, blush by Catrice. These 3 products I've used most atm, I love how the grey matte looks on my skin/with my eyes :) The peachy blush is just perfect! Dark green glitter polish, Yves Rocher tiny polishes in Argent etincelant 33 and Corail irise 11, Essence Absolutly Stylish 40, Gosh Golden Dragon 564 ( I can't get this color anywhere since they changed their looks, I looove his color ) and Yves Rocher Brun Peau 81..I havn't used this one yet but it looks a bit like a red with a hint of braun in it but with pink tiny sparkles in it. I thought this will be my xmas polish :) A sweet looking nailfile and Gosh eye shadow primer waterproof...which I need now rainy/snowy season has gebun and I ride my bicycle to work very often ggrrr

for sale / for swap

As I mentioned in a post earlier, I had ordered OPI's - Pirates of the Caribbean 2 times by "accident". I ordered them at seperate netshops as pre-orders but/and luckily I had the chance of getting them at both weeee.

But what to do with them?! I already used some from the first USA shipment, so the other one Singapore shipment is a spare i would like to get rid of :) (As you can see each bottle has a little sticker attacked, which is easily removed. It`s a waranty seal all my OPI polishes from that store have, can be pealed of very well ) I still have a Black Shatter which I don`t "need" and would love to give a good home.

If someone would like to buy all 8 or swap them let me know, I like to sell/swap as a set (with or without Black Shatter)

At the same day I bought Catrice - Enter Wonderland LE I got my hands on 2x Gosh Holo!!!!!! (with fixed base-coat) I couldn`t leave them for the anounced buy 1 get 1 free, cause I was sure they would be gone by that time! I will try to keep an eye out at the shop, but since I'm not very fond of our Kruitvat anymore max. visits will be 2 times a week when I`m at work.

These are not for sale ;) Can only be swapped, they go as a pair ( 1Holo + 1fbc), let me know if you`re itnerested :)

Winner of the Gosh **Give-Away**

First of all a big big welcome to all new followers!! Welcome and enjoy your stay here ;) I`ve seen many entries from people all over the world. Lots of amazing fun stories as well :) No I did not know gasoline was being sold as a lice product, and I think by now most people do know a "lemming-list"  is not about silly puppets running of cliffs ;) Congratulations to The Crazy Bitch Beauty Gazette for becomming my 200th follower!!  4 of you naughty girls have entered 2 times, ow ow ow no candy for xmas! To answer 1 question; "is the basecoat good for polishes that aren't holo too?" I wouldn`t use it for other polishes, as it`s a milky polish which evens it all specially for holos. I haven`t tried it myself, but I wouldn`t suggest it :) And now....on to the winner of these 2 polishes;

Zara from Never Unpolished

Congratulations sweety!!! An email has been sent to you, I`ll be waiting your reply :)

p.s. I did notice this polish is a huuuuge lemming to many. As it`s being sold on a regular base in my town people can always ask me for a tiny swap or something for it...

Cookies And Cream + Konad

I`ve worn Cookies And Cream all day and even got complements from one of my colleagues. I love it as a nude, but after the day I thought it looked a bit dull so I was ready for some Konad action :) Having some (4)  Konad plates and a Bundle Monster set it`s sometimes hard to decide which plate to go for, and when it`s that time again I always pick the leopard one. It`s funny...quick, and actually can`t go wrong at all cause it looks okay from each angle. I used Gosh - Purple Heart for it, it`s not a deep dark cause of the purple duochrome looks in it.

Gosh Holographic

Readers choice I picked Gosh holo today :)

As you can zoom in, it already has some slight chips on the edges, cause I washed my hands so often today. I`m not wearing a proper base-coat and defo not wearing a topcoat since those ruin this polish...so it`s my own fault it chipped. Then again it was a rather okay priced polish and I`m willing to renew it every day cause it looks so special. I still love this flashy color!!

Herome image-plates

Yay I received my Herome package, was quite a fast delivery. Only after ordering and paying it took about 2 days, but then again it`s a dutch company so why should it take ages ;)

I came acros these plates by coinsidence really. Wanted to get some more info on their website about the W.I.C. colors and then I hit the webshop and saw they had a total different line; W.I.C. graffiti NailArt. It includes the same small bottles as their polishes, only these brushes are like liners and there are less colors available. They sell starting kits with 1 bottle of nailart polish with a scraper, stamper and a plate or bigger sets. I wasn`t interested in the polishes...weird huh ;)...so I went to the plate sets. There are 4 sets available and I bought 3 of em. First picture you see is Fancy-set, second picture is flower-set and third picture is Tip-set...which i can`t use yet since my nails are extremely short. Forth available set is called Say it!..which has numbers and letters, I`m not really into that. Had to try the set immediatly ofc!!!

• started with Sally Hansen base-coat
• 2 layers of Catrice-Let`s Talk About Berrie! 080
• for stamping used Gosh-silver 555
• toped it with SecheVite :)

For the stamping I used first plate of the first photo, the little splashy thingy, and I was having quite fun so I didn`t really care the stamping wasn`t in the same positioning on each nail :)

Oeh and prices...I payed 7,50euros for each set so a total of  22,50euros. ( And each set comes in a cute silver box ) No delivery costs since it was more then 15euros. I haven`t seen these in shops, only Heroms eshop.

Gosh

550 purple heart, It's not purple...and it's not black. I do think the color is to hard on my fingernails, so I use it as toe-polish ooorr I use it with my konad kit for stamping ;)

549 holographic, This is my first holographic and I love it! I shocked my colleagues with it, since they had no clue such thing excisted.

555 silver, this is extremely shiny, not like the Minx mani`s I`ve seen on WAH-nails, but still shiny. I use it on my Konad-set as well.

553 black passion,This is a black but with silvery glitters in it so I call it shimmer. Love using this on my Konad-set as well. Don't like it as a base color on my fingernails.

546 rainbow, ooeehh my first flakie. I dont like to use this on it's own. Always on a different colored base, mostly purple or black ones. Love the iridiscent colors on the flakes.

565 fix base, a base-coat specialy for holographic polishes. I also use this for the OPI DS ones. OPI does have it's own base-coat on market, but this one works fine for me.
