Illamasqua - Human fundamentalism

Hi,

Today I'll show you a small part of Illamasqua new 2012 collection. They describe it 

to be "an explosion of your alter ego - it's becoming who you are and not who 

you're told to be". You can see more of it on Illamasqua website and pre-order the 

products available from 15th March. I got some very nicely packed samples and 

I'll show them to you.

I got two eye shadows (the black one -Obsidian and the mauve one -Can Can) 

and you can see how they look like in the picture bellow. The nail polish

is called Nomad and it is a very beautiful fresh-mint shade. As other Illamasqua

nail polish, it has a very beautiful shine. I also got the Sealing gel, that is something

very usefull for the season coming. One drop of this turns any powder into a colour-intense,

 water-resistant paste that dries quickly and lasts longer. You can use it with powder eye 

shadow, pure pigment, eye brow cake or eye liner cake. Last but not least, I got a sample

of the new Freak eau de perfume. I don't only like the way it smells, but also the

fact that a single drop applied on my wrist lasted the whole day and spread the

beautiful smell all around me.

This is it; I, for one, love this collection!

Flormar - Magnetic twist

Hi,

Today I'll show you a new magnetic nail polish from Flormar. Unfortunately,

I think this brand is only available in Europe. I got a red shade, called MG05.

It is very easy to use: right after you apply the polish on the nail you put the magnet 

as close to nail as possible and keep it for about 10 seconds. It will look like in the 

picture. After this, I stamped a small, white flower from m66 Konad plate and 

applied a red rhinestone. I finished with a clear top coat. What do you think?

This is how the magnet looks like. It only creates diagonal lines. I will give you a tip: 

take the magnet out from its support so it will be easier to use. The lines aren't so 

emphasized when you use the magnet in its support.

Spring day manicure

Hi,

Today I'll show you a springy manicure I've done and also talk about the Black stamping 

nail polish from a nail art store called Born Pretty. I started with two coats of 

Avon -Aqua Fantasy and then, using the sponge, I applied Pure Ice  -French Kiss on 

the tips. Then I stamped the design from m78 Konad plate with the stamping polish I was 

talking about. The design imprints very well, the color is intense enough and it doesn't 

dry on the stamp before you apply it on the nail. It is in a 3ml bottle, and its price 

is $2.05, with free international shipping. I think it deserves a try if you ran out 

of Konad special polish, because the results are mainly the same. I finished my 

manicure by applying a clear top coat. What do you think?

m64 Abstraction

Hi,

Today I'll show you a new manicure with m64 Konad plate.

I started with two coats of Claire's -Lonely/Loved and then I applied

Deborah -01 MAT (Black) on the tips using a sponge. Then, I stamped the 

design using Konad -Special White and finished with a clear top coat.

Tuxedo nail art

Hi,

As many of you might now, tuxedo nail art has became a trend since they 

were worn on the red carped, so I decided to come up with a similar design.

I started with two coats of Essie- Topless&Barefoot. After that, using a 

thin brush, I created diagonally two black lines and filled them in with

Illamasqua- Scorn. Then I created the bows and two small dots on each

nail with a dotting tool. I finished with a clear top coat. 

What do you think?

Fraise

Hi,

Today I'll show you a new manicure I made with m57 Konad plate.

I started with two coats of Essie -Topless & Barefoot and then I stamped 

the design with Illamasqua -Allarm. Then I used Jesse's Girl -JulieG to

fill the spaces between the red lines. I finished with a clear top coat.
