 Still no snow here in Estonia, but I just wanted to do a simple snowflake mani.  Again I didn´t wait long enough when applying top coat and so the snowflakes smeared a little.  What I used: - SpaRitual Protein Boost Nail Fortifier - OPI Nail Lacquer in Teal the Cows Come Home - Nail Art Stamping Polish from Born Pretty Store - stamping plate A36 from eBay - Depend Cracked Effect nail polish in white - China Glaze Fast Forward Top Coat

This is my "little" Christmas wish list :) This is truly only wish and dream list and I know that probably the only way I will get these items is when I purchase them myself :D 1. Urban Decay Naked 2 palette. I have seen swatches of this and love the eyeshadow shades in this palette. *Picture via Google 2. A new camera. I guess you have read before that the camera I have at the moment sucks. So I have been searching for the new one for months now, but I just can´t decide what would be the perfect one.  *picture via Google *Picture via Google   3. iPhone 4S :D There is nothing wrong with my Nokia smartphone, but I just want to try iPhone. *picture via Google   4. Michael Kors watch.  *picture via Google 5. Guess Riding boots and D.Co Copenhagen Wedges from ASOS.  6. Some brushes from Sigma. I wanted to order some brushes from Sigma when they had free worldwide shipping, but since the website wasn´t workin...

The name for this mani is by R. He looked at my nails and the first thing he said was that it looked like a deep cosmos :D  For that mani I used two coats of black nail polish by Aden Cosmetics and for diagonal french tip I used two coats of Models Own nail polish in Magneta Divine.  IRL this mani looks very beautiful and glittery. Unfortunately my camera couldn´t capture it, again...... What I used: - SpaRitual Protein Boost Nail Fortifier - Aden Cosmetics nail polish in Black - Models Own nail polish in Magneta Divine - China Glaze Fast Forward Top Coat

So almost all posts this week has been about red. This is last "red" post this week. This is a layering mani where I used one coat of China Glaze Poinsettia and one coat of OPI Excuse Moi! What I used: - SpaRitual Protein Boost Nail Fortifier - China Glaze Poinsettia - OPI Excuse Moi! - OPI RapiDry Top Coat

After I did my NOTD post on Tuesday   I realised that I have another similar bright red nail polish as China Glaze Poinsettia. So I swatched and compared Barry M Bright Red and China Glaze Poinsettia and here are the results.  L-R: China Glaze Poinsettia, Barry M Bright Red I made pictures in different lighting to see the differences between the two nail polishes L-R: Barry M Bright Red, China Glaze Poinsettia L-R: Barry M Bright Red, China Glaze Poinsettia L-R: China Glaze Poinsettia, Barry M Bright Red L-R: Barry M Bright Red, China Glaze Poinsettia They both are opaque in two coats and they try quite quickly. In some lights CG Poinsettia has some hints of coral, but i n my opinion these look similar.  What do you think? Dupes or no dupes? Võrdlesin siin siis kahte punast küünelakki: China Glaze Poinsettia´t ja Barry M Bright Red´i. Minu arvates on need lakid sarnased. Mis teie arvate? Samasugused või mitte?

Decided to use my new OPI mini nail polishes from their Muppets Collection. I LOVE these nail polishes!  in natural light in artificial light What I used: - SpaRitual Protein Boost Nail Fortifier - OPI Nail Lacquer Warm & Fozzie - OPI Nail Lacquer Designer ... de Better! - OPI RapiDry Top Coat
