Dear readers

Maybe you have noticed it already, but there is a new logo! All there credits are for Edwin, a friend  of  my boyfriend who was just playing  with my logo... but the result is soooo amazing! I am so happy  with it! So thank you so much! It is such an improvement!

Milani - Neon - Totally 80's

Dear readers

Short post today, because I have to go within a minute :) I love the name of this one and I have to say, I am always a little anxious about yellow nailpolishes. I love Happy Go Lucky (China Glaze), but I was curious. The effect wasn't as neon as I hoped, but as a yellow it is fine.

Color Club - Fractured - Clean Break

Dear readers

Today we have a deadline and you know how it works right? We planned it would be finished wednesday, but that didn't work out. So thursday... nope still not finished. And now we are all a little stressed out because today it has got to be done. So what do you do when you are a little stressed out? Blog about a crackle! :)

I have to say, I first tried all the China Glaze crackles and later the Color Clubs. The black and the white of Color Club were much better than the China Glaze crackles. What is your opinion?

Milani - Classics Available

Dear readers,

Yesterday Blogger was a mess. I couldn't even open my own page and after I waited a long long time it worked, but then my whole computer freaked out. So I thought maybe it is better tomorrow, and it is, because everything is working fine now. So today there will be two posts.

And that is good, because I have some nice news!
Yesterday I received the first Milani Classics! Just four colors at this moment (Hot Pink, Playful, Purple Passion and Raspberry Fusion) but they are great!

Milani - Neon - Awesome Orange

Dear readers

You know my moods are so much influenced by the weather! Unbelievable. It is a normal day, nothing special, I didn't do anything special today and still I feel tired and I feel like I did alot, whiche I didn't :p Oh well that is just me struggeling with the fall and the upcoming winter.

Only 26 more followers and I will start the next giveaway and I give a little hint it is going to be all just in one lovely color! Do you want to know which one it is? Well invite all of your friends to follow The Color Palette!

Ok today it is time to cheer my mood up a little bit. How do you do that? Yes, with a good good good orange! I totally loooovveee orange! My favorite color! Not as bright as yellow, but not as hot as red, just the best of both colors in one. But I live in The Netherlands and we only wear orange when it is a national day like Queensday or when there is a EK or WK championship. So sad because I would love to wear more orange. And this is a great orange, you know my complaints about the bottle. This color is actually pretty close to the color of the bottle. This is the best neon orange I have ever tried on before! It is so good! You should try it! Even if you live in The Netherlands, for queensday this one just rocks!

Crackles, crackles, crackles, everywhere you look are crackles! Even the girls I teach wear crackles. So another post about this interesting (read: horrible) nailpolishes. I have to say that I liked the Color Club crackles better than the China Glaze ones. Ofcourse they have some differences in the colors, but really the black from Color Club cracked perfect while the black from China Glaze barely showed some cracks. But let's check out the bottles and the colors of the Color Club - Fractured collection.

Konad - Stamping Polish 10 ml - Part 1 - Black

Dear readers

Today I did an exam and it went pretty good I think :) and when I came home the results of last months exam where there and I made it! Woohoo! Very happy now, if I also passed the one of today, I only have to do 3 more exams until july.

Today I want to show you the basic of the basics and it is Konad - Stamping Polish 10 ml - Black. Well I think everybody who loves to stamp must have this nailpolish (or another black one). Some people like to stamp with normal nailpolish, I don't I can't work with it at all. No problem I use Konad - Stamping Polish and it is always very nice and the images are nice and clear. Check out Black:

Milani - Neon - Fresh Teal

Dear readers

Ok you will never hear me say that I write something that is 'not important', but today.. this is really really important! Well just take a look at the pictures and you know why. First let me be clear: I love Milani. I like the shape of their bottles and their brushes. Everything is fine, but... The neon collection has colored bottles. You can't look through them, that sucks because you can't see how much you still got let and you can't see the actual color. And then you buy it and you just hope for the best and when I see this bottle it would be more green than blue and pretty dark... Well I put it on my nails and I was literally shocked. I couldn't believe that this came out of this green bottle. It was a beautiful bright blue/turquoise! Even better than the color of the bottle, but still... If you bought it for that color... you won't get is.

So please everyone who would like to buy Milani: Check swatches first!

The quality is great and I love this one, now, but these bottles really bother me.
