Canada Day Nails


Hello everyone!



The Adventures In Stamping challenge yesterday was Independence Day or Canada Day, and I chose Canada Day. The flag was my inspiration. Happy Canada Day to all of you who are celebrating today!

I used the maple leaf image from my new Pueen set, and my new and first white based glitter which I love, and I finally used my red croc effect top coat. Love the effect. The Jolly Jewels glitter was opaque in two coats, but I applied one more coat on my pinkie because I was curious about the glitter. And on the index finger you can see what it looks like over a white base. I used one coat, and dabbed a little more on. I wanted the nails to look a little different.

Valentine's Day nails: Purple holo with red hearts


Hello everyone!




Today I have one more Valentine's Day mani for you. I painted my nails with Color Club: Eternal Beauty, a purple linear holographic nail polish, and stamped red hearts over it. Then I used a holographic glitter top coat, and added red heart shaped rhinestones. If was my boyfriend who came up with the idea to use this image on all the nails.

Color Club: # 999 Eternal Beauty is a linear holographic purple nail polish from Color Club's Halo Hues 2013 collection. According to Color Club's website all nail polishes are vegan, and free of formaldehyde, toluene, DBP and paraben - and made in New York, USA, and not tested on animals :-)

If I understood it correctly, Color Club is a part of the Forsythe Cosmetic Group, which can be found on the Leaping Bunny list of brands that do not test on animals.

I've been ill for a few days (but at the same time very happy since this polish arrived in the mail on Saturday!!!), and when I got my strength back it was dark, so the photos are taken inside. I used Ott- lite, a LED lamp, and a regular lamp with yellowish light. But when I looked through the photos, I liked just one of the Ott- lite photos, and that is the one with white background. The LED photos are the ones where you can see the holo best, but then the rhinestone hearts looked much darker than they do in real life.
