31DC2014 Day 31 - Honor Nails You Love

THE LAST DAY AF THE CHALLENGE!!!
Thought this sentence deserved cap locks.
It's been a fun but difficult month filled with empty bottles of polish remover, dirty paintbrushes, lots of scotch tape and headaches over nail polish fumes, but it's over and at the same time I'm so glad it's over I'm also sad because I had so much fun and now I have to go find my own prompts, lol.
I'm giving myself a promise that I'll keep a better schedule (blog vise) now than before the challenge, I just have to stop procrastinating so much and just do things.

For this last one I decided to recreate Glitter Fingersss's Half Moons. I only recently started following her blog but every nail design she does blows me away.


Polishes used:
Cult Nails - Thrive
Kleancolor Nail to Toe striper - Beaming Pink

31DC2014 Day 21 - Inspired By A Color

Because I had my water marble "gear" on my table and some time to kill I did another water marble for this day's prompt which is inspired by a color.
As you've maybe guessed if you have followed me for some time I really like pastels and bright colors and my favorite colors at the moment are mint green and pink so I thought I would take inspiration from that and do a water marble with them.

There are two types of pink in there but as I used Acid Watermelon also as base the other one kind of blended in. These are much brighter in person, my camera could not handle this masterpiece ;)
Here are a "few" photos.

Polishes used:
L'Oreal - Acid Watermelon
Maybelline Color Show - Tropink
Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear - Kelp Yourself

31DC2014 Day 16 - Geometric

I live on a polish deprived island, polishes here are expensive and there are limited brands available, sometimes we even don't get certain collections from brands so when I saw the Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear Electric summer collection in stores I was like a kid in a candy store. A few weeks earlier I had asked the saleswoman if they would get this collection and she said that Sally Hansen didn't do collections just random colors once in a while so I was certain this collection wouldn't make it to Iceland because the woman behind the counter obviously didn't know what she was talking about.
But it did and I had to use them right away.
So here is my geometric manicure.
The lines aren't as crisp as I wanted them to be but it'll do.

Polishes used:
Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear - You're Crabby
Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear - Kelp Yourself
Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear - Wet Suit
Barry M Gelly - Coconut

This one is a day late, had so much to do yesterday I didn't have time for my manicure.
I also got my first Helmer yesterday from Ikea and had a fun time putting it together and organizing my polishes and my cats took the box it came in in their care, slept and played in it, funny how boxes tempt cats, almost like a catnip ;)

But here is my inspired by a tutorial mani.
Found this cute bunny tutorial from Cutepolish on pinterest but I can't find it on her page.
But here come my bunnies.

Polishes used:
Alessandro - Cashmere Touch

Pastel Gradient

Another challenge from the Facebook group Nail Polish Challenge.


The polishes are some cheap ones from a brand  called Aisha Vollaré Cosmetics, they don't have any names or numbers that I could find, but they served they're purpose well.


Oh Peter Capaldi is the new Doctor, I like him and I think he will be a different, but awesome Doctor. They needed a new element after David Tennant and Matt Smith, another young Doctor would have made this too repetitive, too mainstream, just because the show is so famous.

That's it for today, I have Torchwood episodes that need to be watched, 
season 3 where Peter Capaldi plays a very disturbing man.
