Getting ready for Christmas Challenge: 1. Not yet, but almost!

Tweet

Hi,

Today I'll show you the first manicure I created for Christmas 2013. I decided to take part in an awesome challenge created by Elsa from Like a candy shop. There will be 10 different manicures, as listed below. Anyone can take part in it and the good part is that there's no schedule - anyone posts when they want! Hope you'll have the courage to enter, too. You will find more details on her blog.

For this manicure, I started with two coats of Layla Mirror Effect -01 Metal Chrome on all nails except from my ring finger's, where I applied Illamasqua -Vince. On the accent nail, I stamped the snowflakes design from Bundle Monster's BM-H02 image plate and finished with clear top coat. I also added some green rhinestones on my pointer and middle finger. What do you think?

I cannot wait to show you the rest of the manicures I'm going to prepare for this challenge!

China Glaze -Passion

Tweet

Hi,

Today I'll show you a beautiful nail polish from China Glaze -Passion. It's a metallic shade of gold, which is great for stamping, too. Really opaque after a single coat, the nail polish looks attractive no matter if stamped or used as a base colour. If you are seeking for nail polishes which are perfect for Christmas, this one should definitely be on your list. 

Buna,

Astazi va voi arata o oja superba de China Glaze -Passion. Este un auriu metalic, care se poate folosi si pentru stampilat. Foarte opaca dupa doar un strat, oja e atractiva atat folosita pentru un model, cat si ca baza. Daca sunteti in cautarea ojelor perfecte pentru Craciun, aceasta trebuie sa fie pe lista voastra.

Daca locuiti pe teritoriul Romaniei, puteti comanda aceasta oja in exclusivitate de pe 

Beauty in the Bottle. De asemenea, ei aduc la comanda oje de la diferite firme care nu se gasesc in tara noastra, la preturi rezonabile.

Anul acesta, pe Beauty in the Bottle vor fi reduceri in 29 noiembrie cu ocazia Black Friday, ce vor incepe la ora 00:00. Daca va tenteaza ceva, intrati pe site cat de devreme deoarece presimt ca ojele se vor termina rapid. Preturile sunt oricum accesibile, iar cu reducerile aplicate vor fi si mai tentante.

For the simple manicure, I just added some black rhinestones on my ring finger and finished with a clear top coat. For the stamped one, I used Flormar #399 as a base colour and then stamped the design from Konad's m78 image plate. I finished with clear top coat, too. 

Pentru manichiura simpla, am folosit doar niste pietricele negre si un top coat transparent. Pentru cea stampilata, am folosit  Flormar #399 ca si culoare de baza, iar am folosit modelul de pe placuta m78 de la Konad. Am aplicat in final top coat transparent.

Golden Rose -Impression #13

Tweet

Hi,

Today I'll show you Golden Rose -Impression #13, applied over black nail polish (Flormar #399). I only applied a coat of the glittery particles and they were dense enough and uniforme. I finished with clear top coat and three cute black rhinestones on my ring finger. What do you think?

Buna, 

Astazi va voi arata Golden Rose -Impression #13, aplicata peste oja neagra ((Flormar #399). Am aplicat doar un strat din acest glitter ceea ce a ajuns pentru o acoperire densa si uniforma. In final, am aplicat top coat reansparent si trei pietricele negre pe inelar. Ce parere aveti?

China Glaze -Put a bow on it

Tweet

Hi,

Today I'll show you a new nail polish from the latest China Glaze collection - Happy HoliGlaze. This one is called Put a bow on it and I  was really surprised yo find out that it's a sand effect nail polish. I didn't figure it out after seeing only a few swatches online, but I have to admit that I like it even more this way.

Buna, 

Astazi va voi arata o noua oja din ulrima colectie China Glaze - Happy HoliGlaze. Cea pe care o sa v-o arat se numeste Put a bow on it si am fost foarte surprinsa sa vad ca efectul este unul nisipos. Nu mi-am dat seama de acest lucru doar vazand niste swatch-uri online, dar trebuie sa recunosc ca imi place mult mai mult asa. 

Daca locuiti pe teritoriul Romaniei, puteti comanda aceasta oja in exclusivitate de pe 

Beauty in the Bottle. De asemenea, ei aduc la comanda oje de la diferite firme care nu se gasesc in tara noastra, la preturi rezonabile.

Unfortunately, because of the post's negligence, I got this one broken. Happily, I could save some and I moved it into an old nail polish bottle.

Din pacate, din neglijenta postei, am primit aceasta oja sparta. Din fericire, totusi, am putut salva ceva din aceasta oja si am mutat-o intr-o sticluta veche. 

This is how it looks like applied in two coats, without any top coat. 

Asa arata aplicata in doua straturi, fara top coat.

Maybe you've seen the beautiful ring in the first picture. It got it from Rings and Tings, an online jewelry store. I also got two necklaces, which you might have seen on facebook.

Poate ati remarcat acest inel frumos in prima poza. L-am luate de pe Rings and Tings, care este un magazin online de bijuterii. De asemenea, mi-am mai luat doua coliere, pe care probabil le-ati vazut pe facebook.

P.S. From now on, I'll be using my instagram more frequently, so don't forget to follow me @konadaddict! I've already posted a picture.

Galaxy nails

Tweet

Hi,

Today I'll show you my galaxy nails inspired by cutepolish' video. For the sky, I started with two coats of Flormar #399 and then, using a sponge, I applied Flormar -M01 from place to place. Above the white shade, I applied Rimmel - 844 Out of the blue using a sponge, too. To create the stars, I simply applied a coat of Golden Rose -Carnival #01 (white glitter particles) and then created just a few more with a thin brush. I finished with clear top coat. What do you think of my cosmos?

Tweet

Hi,

Today I'll show you the manicure I wore this Halloween. It's funny because I used two different collections called Holiday to create this nail art. I started with two coats of Golden Rose Holiday #80 and then 

stamped various designs from Bundle Monster's Holiday BM-H08 plate using black polish. I finished with clear top coat. What do you think?
