Leopard Print Nails - NOTD

I wanted to create something fun which won't be very time consuming but still will look pretty.
So this is the design I came up with.
Basically it's leopard kinda looking design with an X in the middle.
The good with this design is that you can choose any color combination you want and recreate it as it's a
super easy design which,i think,looks really pretty :)
And here's the tutorial

What do you think of it?Do you like it?

NOTW

Sunday today and I decided to post my manicure for this week so here it is

For this week I decided to go with something easy to create yet pretty to wear.

How to
  • Apply your base coat and then 2 coats of yellow polish.You can choose from pastel yellow to neon yellow,whatever you like.In fact if I had neon yellow I would probably use it for this :)
  • Using black polish or acrylic paint with dotting tool or toothpick create around 5 rows of dots
  • Create bigger dots as you go down on your nail
  • Apply to coat
  • Enjoy :)
Hope everyone will have a wonderful week

NOTW and Tutorial

A quite long time ago I saw a picture of nail art I really liked(sorry don't remember where or who's) and I decided to make something similar,so here's my NOTW(nails of the week) :D




Now the tutorial part :) 


What you need:

  • Milky nail polish
  • White polish
  • Black striper polish
  • Silver glitter striper polishes
  • Top & base coat
Steps:
  1. First you need to create french manicure.I prefer to use as background for my french manicure a milky polish and then on top make the tips with white but you can go with plane nail as background too :)
  2. Depending on how big your tip is, make 1-4 black stipes on one side of your tip
  3. Now with silver striper go between the black stripes and create silver ones
  4. With black striper create the wavy line starting from the other side of your tip (just like you see on the picture) and with silver,create one more just next to the black one
  5. Final step,on your ring and pointing fingers make few dots along the wavy line
  6. Add your top coat and your done :D
  7. Enjoy your nails XD

La Femme Nail Polishes Review and Swatches

I wasn't aware of this brand since I live in Greece and here we don't have La Femme.But once that i was searching throughout Amazon for nail supplies I came across a seller who was selling some sets of La Femme polishes and decided to buy one.I got them and I was really happy with the colors as some of them I didnt have.
The set that I bought came with 12 polishes,9 normal and 3 crackle.The cost was around £11 



I'm not sure but they are probably form a collection,Prime collocetion,cuz that what it says on the bottle.There aren't any names on the bottle but I searched and found a site that sales those polishes and they have names so I'll try to match the polishes as best as I can :)
Here are some swatches

                                             Silverado...........................................Iris

                                        White..................................................Ebony,Black

                                            Mojo..................................................Emerald?

                                         Damsen?.......................................................Passion

                                                                      Electric Blue


* All swatches were made with 2 coats of polish*

The 3 crackle polishes are in black,hot pink and silver
The a,b,c,d are some effect options you can get depending on how thick and the 
way you apply the polsih


I was quite impress with how much pigmented the polishes are for less than £1 for each.As a matter of fact the white one was the best white polish that I have tried so far,it applies evenly so easily.Generally all of them are very good and with a good top coat they won't chip for at least a week.
Conclusion?They defenatly worth of checking and I'd say give them a try cuz you might love them too :)
