BB Couture - Eye Candy - Feathered Vixen

Dear readers

Next week I start with my master Health Science and I am looking forward, because when I finished this year I am really 'something'. That feels good, but first I have until sunday to do all kinds of things that still need to be done for the gymnastics and my webshop. So I still enjoy my freedom a little bit while I am working my ass off ;) This march I started my webshop, and everything is going so well, but with all my wild ideas it's alot of work. I see is more as an expansion of my nailpolish addiction which I take very seriously.

Enough about me, let's take a look at this gorgeous color Feathered Vixen. For everything who loves purple nailpolish:

Nubar - Chocolate Truffles - Haul

Dear readers

I am a step closer to reality. Like I told you yesterday I have this wild idea that didn't happen before in The Netherlands, or not as far as I know and heard. If it is going to work out... oohh I would be so happy and proud! :D But I still can't tell anything yet... but I want to tell you everything... but not yet.. wait till the time is right.

In the maintime I have a new haul today. It is a delicious collection from Nubar. Personally I love Nubar because they have original colors and ideas. Ofcourse they have the Duochromes, but there are way more collection and not everyone is familiar with these so I want to put them in the spotlight. So here we have the Chocolate Truffles collection and believe me.. When I tried them on.. it was like liquid chocolate on my nails! These chocolate brown colors are great for the fall and the winter. Let's take a look at this gorgeous collection.

Nubar - Chocolate Truffles - Cherry Cordial


Nubar - Chocolate Truffles - Chocolate Caramel

Nubar - Chocolate Truffles - Milk Chocolate Cream

Milani - Neon - Haul

Dear readers

I am really really excited.. but the terrible thing is I really can't say anything about it. When it is possible I will tell you ofcourse. Until then I try to keep myself a little bit calm ;) because there is a change that it doesn't workout the way I want..

Good back to the reality. It's an important post today. It's about Milani - Neon and maybe you already know but if you don't I want to warn you. These neons are nice colors, althrough not all of them are really neons, but the worse part is the bottles. The are colored and you can't look inside. Until there no problem yet, but the thing is that the color on the bottle absolutely don't match with the nailpolish inside. At this moment I tried Fresh Teal, Pink Rocks! and Totally 80's and all three were alot different then I though. I like the colors, but if you think that you are buying the color of the bottle then you are so wrong. That is why I will post the swatches on my website as soon as I have them and please check them before you buy or maybe you will get disappointed. To make my point: I love the colors of the nailpolish but the bottles just suck :)


Milani - Neon - Awesome Orange

Milani - Neon - Dude Blue

Milani - Neon - Fresh Teal


Milani - Neon - Pink Hottie


Milani - Neon - Pink Rocks!


Milani - Neon - Purple Rad


Milani - Neon - Techno Red


Milani - Neon - Totally 80's

China Glaze - Metal Crackle - Tarnished Gold

Dear readers

I have one week left of my summer holiday. Well.. It supposed to be summer.. I really miss the sun.. Yesterday I made 12 swatches and 12 konadicures :) and I will go on the next week so I have as much as swatches available before everything starts. At this moment you have to 'search' for the swatches in my shop, but I promise, that every product that can be swatcht will get one. What do you think? I think it looks good and complete.

At this moment already 33 followers, still 67 to go ;) tick tock tick

Today I will show you another Metal Crackle nailpolish from China Glaze, Tarnished Gold. I was really thinking over which color I would use it. In the end I choose for Essie - Fall 2010 - Little Brown Dress, which one is just completely gorgeous brown :) but that is for another time. Let's take a look.

Essie - Art Of Spring - Haul

Dear readers

Yesterday and today I can swatch all day. I got 247 nailpolishes of my own that I need to do, but I just like it to do. It's alot of work, but it is fun and it is nice for my shop and my blog so why not :) I will also swatch every local brand color, because it is very hard to find swatches of them. But today I will keep it classy. The brand I will show is Essie and the first thing I think about when it coms to this brand is classic colors and very soft pinks. But Essie has many many more than that! One thing that I think is only a little strange.. the names of their collections are very boring. Like 'Fall 2009', 'Fall 2010', 'Fall 2011'... They have always very beautiful promotion pictures, with a nice line, but that is not the name of the collection right? Well I don't really care, but it would be nicer if they had matching names with the colors. The collection of today has got a nice name: Art Of Spring. Six cute spring colors.


Essie - Art Of Spring - Lilacism

Essie - Art Of Spring - Neo-Whimsical

Essie - Art Of Spring - Pop Art Pink

Essie - Art Of Spring - Red Nouveau

Essie - Art Of Spring - Tart Deco

Essie - Art Of Spring - Van D'Go

BB Couture - Eye Candy - Dirty Blond

Goodmorning dear readers

First I would like to thank the 21 followers that are already following me. I hope I can show you some nice pictures here. To be very optimistic, only 79 new followers and I will host the first giveaway!

Today I want to show you a swatch of BB Couture. The next polish is not my own, so if you are interested you can buy it for a reduced price. I was looking for a special color that I thought was not a favorite. I am very happy that I choose to swatch this, because I was surprised how much I actualy liked it! But ofcourse I can't buy all the nailpolishes I sell :) By the way, it is a nailpolish for men, well I don't care if I like a color, I want it :) Let's take a look at Dirty Blond.

China Glaze - Metal Crackle - Haute Metal

Hi girls

Ok things with blogger are a little strange at this moment, because at some computers it works as it should and on others, like mine, it doesn't. I can publish an article, but there are no white lines and I can't make any corrections. But the good news is that it works on my boyfriends computer, so I will change the layout when I am with him. Until they fixed the problem.

Good let's see what I have for you today. The last to posts were hauls, just because I want to start with showing you the bottles and than I show you the individual swatches and the last post about a certain collection will be all the swatches together with a final judgement. This way you can find easy what you want. I hope you enjoy it.

The first swatch I want to show you is China Glaze - Metal Crackle - Haute Metal. It is the pink metallic crackle, but In my opinion it is not really metallic, but more glitter and I like it. You know I am no fan of crackles, but even I have to admit that this is pretty beautiful! What I do like about crackles is that you can change your look so simple by putting an other basic color underneath the crackle layer. In this swatch I used Orly - Once Upon A Time - Pixie Dust.

China Glaze - Metal Crackle - Haul

Hi girls

Ok I found out that more people who use blogger has problems with placing their articles. I hope they found out soon what the problem is so I can fix my articles.

Today I want to show you a China Glaze haul, but there are so many collections, so where to start.. I thought I start with a new collection and in the next posts I go back in the future.

I don't like crackle nailpolishes to be honest, it's not that I hate them. It's just that I like to see the crackling happen on the nail and when it is dry and finished I don't think it is nice on me. But I know alot of people are crazy for these colors. When I look in my shop the crackles are always so fast sold!

Ok we will check the bottles right now, oh and by the way, I have to admit that the colors in the bottles are lovely!


China Glaze - Metal Crackle - Cracked Medallion
China Glaze - Metal Crackle - Haute Metal

BB Couture - Eye Candy - Haul

Hi everyone

The morning of my first real post! I am very excited, but also a little frustrated because some of the functions in blogger doesn't work. For example, I can't select anything, so can't use colors or links or anything. But more annoying is that I can place an article only once and I can't change anything anymore and the white lines in my text are also gone, so it's one big piece of words... Iam not sure yet if it is Blogger or my computer.. Anyone who has this problem too?

But enough about that, let's go check the nailpolishes. I decided to start with BB Couture, because I am the official retailer in The Netherlands and I am very proud about that.
