My new mani is NailNation 3000 Holo In Tandem:








I think I just about captured the pink/lilac shift in the last pic, even though it's a bit blurry!

Phew! Congrats if you made it through this post!

Woohoo, well done you, nice first holo!
Some gorgeous manis there - all lovely, but my faves are the silver skittles and the purple holo one - love what you've done with that one!
 
Thank you PQ! Your last mani with NailNation is gorgeous! Great colour.
I got a new appreciation for all those indie companies that come out with great holos - because holo pigment has usually quite a grey quality to it it's so difficult to get a saturated colour!

I love your accent nail. How did you do it?
Thanks :) I freehanded the flower and used striping tape first to create the "negative space" in the middle. Just added a glitter flakie to the middle:)

Colors By Llarowe Refresh...ing, Lilypad Lacquer Mother of Pearl, Powder Perfect Stroke Of Midnight, Hit Polish Grapes Of Wrath, Nailnation 3000 Voluptuous Orchid
Nice haul!

I still haven't got anything to show you, but I did order a stupid amount of Glam Polish last night, so many nice shades.

My two recent manis. First is China Glaze Don't Make Me Wine stamped with YSL Rose Gold (I love these for stamping) and on the accent nails topped with Naild It PURP! Excuse Me.







The second one is Sally Hansen HD Nail Color in Hue topped with Liquid Sky Lacquer Magic Meadow. It looks very springy, even though it's really cold here, it was -3 C this morning, all frosty and white.

I like the stamping in the first mani. I just got a plate that has similar patterns. And that second mani does look really springy. I wish we had spring already, but I just red in the paper today that February-April will be colder that usual.

I'd totally try that if I'd live in England!

That's a funny combo, but I've never liked Kinder. As a child I was only interested in the surprise, the chocolate was just

I have only one Takko that I managed to get from a recent Llarowe restock (Jabberwocky). I'm not really familiar with this brand so I would not know the hot items

Recent manis: first Formula X Harmonics and Isadora Persian Princess (and some Isadora Beetle Green and CbL O Holy Night). I got the FX and 3 Isadoras from Stockholm last week. The Isadoras were on sale, only about 3 euros a piece. I was wearing Persian Princess on my other hand, and my both hands chipped a bit in 24 h. I don't usually have chips, and I really was not doing anything out of ordinary, just a regular day at the office.



This is DL Anna Gorelova #22 Bereginya. It came with a maching ring. Just remebered that I forgot to put it on!



My Ikea agent called me from Ikea today and told that Helmers are going to be discontinued!

Bummer! I wanted a third grey one, but now I'm getting a second white one. Wonder if I should still get one grey Helmer from another Ikea before they're gone.

I got Jabberwocky too, it looks lovely. I actually ordered all of them!

I never managed to get any Takkos, and they always sell out immediately on Llarowe, so I thought I'd get them all. Worst case scenario I'll sell the ones I don't like.

Ooh, I envy you for going to Stockholm. It's nearly a year since I last went. I really want to go again this year. But so far I haven't heard about any festivals Europe are doing that I can go to. BUT... they are touring the UK in March and I've managed to get myself VIP packages for 2 of their concerts, one in Bristol and one in London (which I'm going with my Finnish friend, Krissie) which include meet & greet with the band!

Couldn't be more excited!

Anyway, lovely manis as usual. I will show you my two most recent ones in a minute, and my hauls, my orders are starting to roll in.

That stamped mani is just beautiful, well done! And the second looks like rose petals.

Nice manis, especially the purple - but I must admit, easy chipping is a pet hate of mine.
I never got round to a helmer - no Ikea near enough. You would think that all those polish addicts who swear by them would have made it a viable line forever though!
You should totally buy while you've got the chance, rather than regret it later.
