Picture Polish Aurora

Hello, 

Today I have another pretty from Picture Polish. Aurora is a limited edition polish which launched back in march/april 2014. I was in UK that time as soon as it got available there I bought it. 

There is many swatches around for this polish but I cant stop myself from sharing my swatches as this polish is outstanding and believe me none of the swatch do justice, it is way more fabulous in person than swatches. 

This gonna be a picture heavy post.

Stamping Test of El Corazon Matte Effect- Neon Polish Collection

Hello, 

Last week I posted swatches of El Corazon neon matte polishes(see here). These polishes are very opaque so when I first applied them I thought to see if they stamp as well. I tried and they didn't disappoint me.

El Corazon Matte effect "Neon" Collection Swatches & Review

Hello, 

Today I have swatches of new El Corazon Matte Effect Polishes. If you dont know already, El corazon is a Russian cosmetic brand. They have great range of polish collection from pastel to neon to glitters to holographic. I have reviewed their polishes before. I like this brand for couple of reasons, they are affordable, their formula is also nice which is also big 5 free, some of them stamps very well too. 

El corazon released their matte collection back in 2012 with 15 different shades. In May 2014 they extended this collection with adding 2 regular shades plus 7 neon shades (you can see entire matte collection here).  

Today, I have 5 polishes out of 7(No 141 to No 147) neon matte shades. Lets have a look. Please click on "Read More" button for detailed swatches.

Grayscale Gradient

Hello, 

Other day when I was struggling to decide about what to do my for my black/white/grey challenge(see here), Dhara (from The Happi Therapy) suggested to do a gradient nail art. I did dry brush for that manicure because I never did one before and also I thought gradient would be pretty simple obvious nailart. But Dhara said doing black to white gradient isnt that easy as I think so we both decided to do a grayscale gradient manicure next week.  

So, this is basically the story behind this manicure and I agree that doing it wasnt that easy and it didnt come out as I thought it will be.

Textured Watermelon Nail Art

Hello,

Some of the nail art themes are evergreen themes like dots, leopard print, and fruit nail arts. Today, I am sharing  a nail art which i never attempted  before, Watermelon Nail Art. There are lots of beautiful watermelon manicures in the community and it was little challenging to come with a little different idea. So, here are my textured watermelon nails. I choose to draw a vertical cross section image of watermelon.

Dry Brush Nail art

Hello, 

Today I am sharing a nail art which I did for a challenge. The theme is "Stamping over a Grey, White and Black Base". Well that's quite challenging because first finding a stamping polish which stamps well on all three of them in a task and secondly what base should I create as gradient and saran wrap are very obvious choice and I wanted to try a new technique.

Shimmer Alice

Hello, 

In my last post shared swatches of five Shimmer polishes, today I have another gorgeous and blingy Shimmer Polish to share. 

Alice is a bomb of mixed sized silver holographic glitters suspended in a clear base. This can be easily layers over any kinda base or you can wear it on its own. I dont have any other polish like this in my stash so I am so happy to have it.
