Sparkled 'Up tips...

Hi girls!

Hope you're all doing well...

I a bit tired because of all the stress about selling our house and buying our new house, but I hope it soon is all over and we can start enjoying it!

Now... on to my nails...

Today I want to show you OPI Servin' Up Sparkle from the Serena Williams collection...

Base: OPI Bubblebath (2 coats)

Tips: OPI Servin' Up Sparkle (2 coats)

Topcoat: INM Out The Door

First I applied 2 coats of OPI Bubblebath, then I applied OPI Servin' Up Sparkle with the brush only on my tips. I let it dry for a while and then decided to sponge the next coat on. That way the tips wouldn't get "as wet" as they would when applied with the brush, and the glitters would adhere better.

OPI Servin' Up Sparkle contains very small glitter particles and some larger glitters. Very pretty!!

See how pretty and shiny the sparklies are? :)

It's been a while since I wore a french manicure, and I used to have french manicure all the time, so I thought it would be nice to only sponge the tips this time.

I'm wearing this manicure for 3 days now, and I seriously can't stop watching the sparkly glitters!

I ♥ this manicure!

Do you like french manicures?


Thanks for watching and hello to my newest followers! Thanks for following me! :)

Essence Nail Colour3 - Part I of III

Hi girls!

I proudly present you:

Essence Nail Colour3: Boys Are Back In Town - It's Just A Little Crush 

Essence Nail Colour3 is a double ended polish which contains 2 polishes. If you'll layer these, you'll have a third colour (so now you'll get the name!)

There are 6 different colour combo's:

From left to right:
♥ Ticket To The Show / Front Row Or Backstage?
♥ Boys Are Back In Town / It's Just A Little Crush
♥ A Walk In The Park / Stop For An Ice Cream
♥ Kiss On Top Of The Rock / Dancing In The Streets
♥ Shopping Trip In Soho / Party All Night Long
♥ Midnight Date / City That Never Sleeps

Let's take a closer look at the basecolour: Boys Are Back In Town:

This is 2 coats of Boys Are Back In Town. This is a crème taupe grey color. It looks to me dark greyish with purple in it. Not a very usual color, so I wore this color on it's own for like 2 days. Application was just fine; some nails needed 2 coats, others were fine with just 1!

I sponged my tips with It's Just A Little Crush, because I didn't felt like it to paint my whole nails with it.
I just ♥ the base colour on it's own, so for me, this was a great solution to try them both.

And this is the result... Isn't is a pretty, subtle purple-violet-blue shimmer?

I ♥ it...

You can buy the Essence Nail Colour3 polishes in The Netherlands at Kruidvat for €2,79 (2x4 ml).

I have 2 more Essence Nail Colour3-polishes to show you, but I guess this one is already my favorite of them all :)

Do you own Essence Nail Colour3 polishes? What do you think of them?

H&M Moody Model

Hi girls!

Today I want to show you a polish that is in my stash for quite a while:

H&M Moody Model

Moody Model is a dark petrol colored crème which applied very opaque and evenly in only two coats.

If you're very careful, you even can apply it in one coat.

What else can I say about this polish... ?

I think it's a pretty unique color and I actually don't get it why I haven't worn this color before?

This polish is bought at H&M and was only €3,95.

I quite like it... Although I don't think I have an outfit to match with this color, but it also can look nice with black, I guess...

What do you think about this color? Like it or not?

Thanks for watching!
