Konad - Image Plate - M56

Dear readers

Tomorrow is my birthday and I will start a nice giveaway with my favorite colors! Make sure you check this giveaway tomorrow!
A less nice thing is that I have to do a presentation in English tomorrow for the first time, and to be honest it isn't as bad as I thought it would be, but still I am a little nervous. So I can't wait to come home and start hosting my next giveaway! :D

I am changing some stuff on my website, the shop, because I hate it when you buy a nailpolish and just have to hope that it is what you like. A few months ago I started with swatches and there are more and more swatches already online, but I thought it wasn't enough. So I am working on the product discription. Normally there would only be a explaination of the color, but now I will tell (if I know) how many coats you need, if it is a glitter I give a little piece of advice it is works great nude, over dark or over light basis colors and if I blogged about it there will be a link. I also show which color is choosen as most popular color by my followers. You can vote every two weeks for your favorite color! I hope my customers get a better idea before the buy. Let me know your reactions, they are welcome!

The image plate I want to show you today belongs in my list of favorites! I looooovvvee french manicure, but not just the boring white, no no, just the funky french manicures and what is better for this kind of manicure than hearts, blocks, swirls and bows? :D

Dear readers

Bridal collections suck.. really all those sheer nailpolishes.. well maybe Essie thought the same and made a change. This four piece collection is opaque and the ones that are sheer are great too. It is also a collection for brave brides. It contains a cute baby blue and a very nice red one!

BB Couture - Infamous Lovers - Juliet

Dear readers

Time to show my first BB Couture :) It is Juliet and yes I thought the name was funny, now I only need Romeo. But I thought the color was kinda special too. It is a rosy pink nude cream with a little amount of black and silver glitter. How original is that?! Plus I love the formula of BB Couture's nailpolishes. Do you own a BB Couture nailpolish?

Dear reader

This name, Chocolate Caramel, makes me want to run straight to the market to buy lots and lots of chocolate. This nailpolish doesn't look so eatable as some others, but it is a very gorgeous gold brown shade. Take a look:

Today I want to show you a pretty cool combination. This is Color Club - Smash Hit over China Glaze - Cowardly Lyin'. The black crackle works really good on this one. What do you think?
