31 Day Challenge, day 5: Blue
Blue nails! For this challenge I decided to bring out my stamping tools. The basecolor is Essence Via Airmail! from the Ready For Boarding collection. On top I did a leopard print in black with Konad imageplate M57. Stamping isn't a technique I often reach for because I always think too much about the mess afterwards that I'd have to clean up, especially when I'm using my opaque and therefore hard-to-remove black polish Color Club Where's The Soiree, like in this case. But clean-up actually wasn't that bad this time because I rubbed a bit of greasy handcream on the skin around the nails, making it harder for the polish to stain. :-) Even the pattern transferred okay on the nails! It's definitely not perfect, but that's the nice thing about leopard print: imperfections are hardly noticeable from a distance. ;-) So all in all I was quite pleased with how this mani turned out. I really should do stamped manis more often...

3D Acrylic Molds for Nails
Hi guys!
After a year, my blog reached 1001 followers when I checked it last week! I'm very thankful to my fellow bloggers for following and supporting my blog. I hope my posts can provide insights and help my fellow bloggers. :)
Anyway guys, have you tried 3d acrylic mold for nail art? I made a tutorial. It's easy to use!
all you need:
nail color
Procedure:
1. Using a small nail art brush,
dip the brush into nail art liquid and after that on acrylic powder. Place it on the 3d mold.
2. Fill all the mold with acrylic mixture . You can choose acrylic powder in any color. I chose white.
3. When the acrylic mixture is already dry, you can use a stick to take out the already hardened acrylic mixture.
4. I chose white so that I can apply different nail colors. Here's the finished product.
NOTE: This product was sent to me as a gift. I made this review based on my own ideas and preference on how to use them. My opinions about the quality of the said products are based on my personal judgements and the outcome of my usage.
Hopr you like them! God Bless

Nubar - Reclaim
Hi everyone! For the green nails challenge I initially wanted to use Nubar Reclaim. But I just couldn't add any form of nail art to it, because it was already perfection on its own. And I do insist on nail art with each challenge, otherwise it wouldn't exactly be a challenge, would it? ;-) So Reclaim isn't included in the challenge, but it's pure awesomeness nonetheless and totally deserved its own post. My pictures are taken in artificial light and as you can see it already reveals that linear holographic finish, which only gets better in sunlight. This was two coats, no topcoat. Absolutely love it! ♥
