Meet the nail polish I've been wearing for one month straight. I don't know what's happening with me. I used to be all about changing my nail colour every couple of days, but lately I've been sticking to just a few of my faves. My last month's obsession was China Glaze's In A Lilly Bit.

The gorgeous light pastel pink shade with a lilac undertone was perfect for spring and brought some very much needed colour to my monochrome outfits. The formula of the nail polish is consistent with the rest of China Glaze's offerings. It is fairly liquidy and requires two to three coats. I'm still waiting for China Glaze to make the brush wider, as I think it would be a lot easier to apply their nail polishes, but while I'm waiting for them to make that happen, I'm happily using Seche Vite's Dry Fast Top Coat, which manages to conceal all mishaps and makes my nails look super glossy! 

Hi there! Do you still remember me? I've been a bit MIA from the blogging/youtube world for the past few weeks, but fear not, I'm back. I'm back with a NOTD post that I haven't posted in what it seems like ages. I've recently been gravitating towards the same old shades or have not been wearing nail polish at all - I know, shocker! - so NOTD posts had to take a backseat. However, my sister's recent purchase broke my streak. China Glaze's Too Yacht to Handle caught my attention right away (turquoise, *cough cough*). The shade is stunning and perfect for the summer time, but keep in mind that the above photograph is misleading. My camera failed to capture the right undertone, so I suggest you to check out this photo I posted on my Instagram for the true representation. Think less bright and light. Ok, you all know about how much I love the colour, but what about the formula? I have to admit, I'm not the biggest fan. It goes on a little sheer and streaky. Seche Vite's Dry Fast Top Coat manages to conceal most mistakes, but I still find a few streaks peeking from the bottom. And the fact that China Glaze nail polishes don't have the biggest brush is not helping the situation. Oh well, what can I say. Essie, Essence and Sally Hansen spoiled the heck out of me, haha. I still love the shade, though. :)

I've been rummaging through my sister's nail polish collection the other day in hopes of discovering some new gems, and China Glaze's Sugar High turned out to be exactly what I'd been looking for. Fun, bright shade perfect for the warmer months ahead of us. In the bottle, it looks a little bit lighter and softer, but when you put it one the nails, the shade turns into a hot pink goodness with a bit of a coral undertone. This nail polish must be one of the oldest in my sister's collection, because there's hardly any of it left, but it still performs perfectly. I applied two coats for an even opaque cream finish, and chipping doesn't seem to be a problem either. Me likey. Do you have any similar shades in your collection?

It seems like summer has now finally decided to visit our small corner of the Earth, so you know what this means, right? Time for bright, fun nail polish colours of course!

Last weekend I've been sporting two China Glaze's shades - Bahamian Escape and Re-fresh Mint. These nail polishes both belong to my sister, so I hope she'll let me borrow them again. Especially the blue one. Doesn't it scream summer?

P.S. Sorry for the lack of posts. I have a ridiculous amount of exams coming up, so I have absolutely no  time to create interesting content. I have three more stressful weeks left, but after that, I'm all yours! I really can't wait to have some free time on my hands and start turning my plans into something concrete. My blog/youtube notebook is overflowing with ideas! 

It seems like I haven't done any nail art for ages! I've been doing my nails in a hurry for the past few months, so nail art just never crossed my mind to be honest. When I was ordering my new adorable penguin phone case,  though, I made a decision to spend some of my spare time on creating penguins on my ring fingers. They don't look perfect, because I don't have the appropriate nail art tools and a steady hand, but I think they still turned out pretty well. 

Here are the nail polishes I've used: Catrice's 'Snow Motion', Maybelline's 'Colorama 80', Avon's 'Classic Fit' and China Glaze's 'Peachy Keen'. So, do you like today's mani? :)

I was browsing through Pinterest the other day and I saw a cute nail design that I decided to try out myself. The only thing you need to do to achieve this look is paint your nails white and then draw on some blue and glittery stripes. Easy peasy and cute! :)

Products used: Essence's Multi Dimension XXXL Shine Nail Polish in Perfectly True, OPI's Natural Nail Base Coat, China Glaze's Bahamian Escape Nail Polish, China Glaze's Tinsel Town Nail Polish & Catrice's Quick Dry and High Shine Top Coat. 

The first new obsession of mine is Avon's nail polish in 'Apricot Mystery'. I cannot stress enough how much I love this nail polish. The color is perfect for spring, and it stays on without chipping for almost a week! To spice it up, I added some China Glaze's 'Tinsel Town' on my ring finger. This is more of a Christmas shade, but I think they complement each other perfectly. You can get the Apricot Mystery here and the Tinsel Town here. 

I got this nail polish for Christmas, and I'm really loving it right now. It goes three days without chiping and you only need one coat of it. As you can see, the colour is quite strange (in a good way); I would describe it as dark muddy bronze with a hint of green. 

I'd been going back and forth whether to buy this foundation or not for a few months back in spring. I had heard many good reviews on youtube, but the price was way too high for me. Luckily, my mother got sick of my to-buy-or-not-to-buy questions and decided to buy it for me. :)

I had never had luck with my foundations. They either weren't the right color or made my skin look patchy, so I was really hoping this one would be good. And it is! The color I got it in is completely matching my skin tone (I tried it on my face at the departmen store before buying it), my dry patches now finally look like normal skin; it is long lasting; has a light to medium coverage but is also buildable; gives my skin an airbrushed effect; and  I don't even feel like I'm wearing any foundation. All in all, I think this is the best foundation for me and I'll definitely be repurchasing it despite the price. The only thing I have to warn you about is that you need to shake it really hard before using it; otherwise it will be very watery. 

Price: 35€ for 30ml

AVON'S UCR CARNATION LIPSTICK

I don't have much to say about this lipstick. I really like the color of it and it's also quite moisturizing. Otherwise, it's just a normal lipstick, nothing special.

Price: I believe it was about 9€, but the Avon prices vary all the time...

CHINA GLAZE'S SKYSCRAPER NAIL POLISH

This color is so pretty that words can't even describe it! But I have to be honest. This is one of my all time favorite nail polishes just because of the color. Why? It chips like crazy! It lasts a day and then my nails look like a hamster has been chewing on them, lol. Oh, and it's also really hard to get it off. I  actually just peel it off, because it would probably take me a day if I wanted to remove it with aceton. 

Price: depends on the country (I got it for 11€, but you can get it for $2.75 in the USA

This is probably one of the most known China Glaze's nail polishes. Its colour is very similar to the colour of Tiffany's famous boxes - gorgeous shade of turquoise. The consistancy of this nail polish is absolutely amazing. It's opaque, it doesn't streak and it doesn't chip very easily. I don't know on which day I took this photo, but I remember that it lasted for at least 5 days. Do any of you own this nail polish?
