Tequila Sunrise

Well hello dears! How is it going? Just a quick post of one of the last weeks mani, which took its inspiration... Tattadadaaa! Title says it already :)

So I was very eager to try China Glaze Solar Power polish, which came from Evil Angel's shop couple of weeks ago. Very pretty shimmery sunshine yellow that would definately look amazing in the sun. I didn't have the opportunity with the sun when I was wearing this but definately will try again in summer! It will shine like a sun!!


I love it!

And just to mention, my nails are starting to be quite a nice lenght. For me! Others might like longer, others shorter, but I think this is good for me. I'm just a bit afraid.. My summerjob is in a cemetery and I do gardening stuff that is needed there!! Oh my dear nails :/

But the sunrise!

It could have been better (a lot!) but I can't remember why I didn't do it right. Well, I'll try it again in summer and make the color changing more smooth. Not so töks. And never mind the stain, the sponge kinda slipped. IMO those colors are very nice together, because of the shimmer overload! The red is Lumene Primrose Path.

And by the way, there in the middle finger you can see the shimmer of the Solar Power!! Gorgeous!

PACKAGE!!

Hey!

Last two days has been awful! Well the day before yesterday wasn't so, but yesterday yes.. On wednesday, my big brother called me to go over, because he and his daughter had a stomach flu, and someone had to watch the daughter. She is 1,5 years old, and I'm her godmother :) Love the girl! Well the day went there, and on evening I was in a hurry and only stopped by at my own house.

So yesterday, I also had to go and watch my niece, 'cuz her faher had to go to work. Morning went by and I was starting to feel something... Yes of course, I had the stomach flu also!!! Should have known when going there the other day that it will catch. So the whole day I just lay on the couch, and tried to feed and change the girl as best as I could... Awful condition! And it ruined my evening plan. More of that coming some other time.

But to the point:
When I finally came home all weak and tired, guess what there was waiting for me?!!?



Tattadadaaaaa!! A package from the other side of the ocean :) My first overseas purchase!


Evil angel has this blogstore, where she sells all the lovely stuff. Last week I contacted her, and bought 9 beautiful polishes.


Four China Glazes, previously I only had one (1!!!) because they cost so much in here. From left to right: Heart of Africa, Solar Power, Innocence and Lavender Lingo. Can't wait to try these!! Especially now in the spring time, the Solar Power almost screams my name from the drawer!


Then my first Color Clubs: Slow Jam and Groove Thang. The picture isn't very colour accurate. Slow Jam is a bit darker IRL. And Groove Thang is this amazing almost black purple which can't be shown from the picture.


And last three, couple of light blues. BB Couture Electric Avenue, Finger Paints Turquoise Tile and Savvy Totally Teal. Also these sparkling turquoises are the ones that will be on my nails soon!!

So thank you so much Evil Angel for the shop and fast shipping and everything!!! :) Hope you will post more beautiful polishes in your shop soon!

Maybe some swatches coming up, maybe not, but I'm very very happy owner of these new polishes (hmmm.... Do I like to own things more than use things..? Yep! Just check my shoe collection! :) )

See ya next time!

My first reader!!

Yeij!! Yesterday I got my first reader, thaks to Laura :) Today when I noticed it, I felt some kind of a schoolgirl-giggling-bubbling-feeling :D Sounds about right! It gave me hope, maybe I'm not alone with my writings.

But now there has been quite a break on my blogging.. Why? Just because of my laziness :/ And actually, I would really need a new camera. It makes me almost angry everytime I am trying to take some pictures of my manis. It shouldn't be like that! But my hopes are pretty high now that the sun is starting to shine also here in the north! Maybe it will help me.

Hey! Still have some old pics to show! When I get over my negative fiilings towards my camera, I will speed up with my postings. Luckily I started taking photos before staring to blog. Although, didn't have then all the tips and tricks (like I would have them all now?!) when taking the photo. But like on the last post, that actually showed nails, this has the same basecolour:

China Glaze Purple Panic. Soooo gorgeous neon! While starting to paint with this, I totally didn't remember that I had already used it with the previoius mani. No, it doesn't matter, but when there is many new things to be tested, I'd like to test those before taking another round.. Does this sound a bit crazy...? I'm not totally desided that, but on some level maybe.

But here is what I added to CG, just to spice it up a little bit:



Lumene Natural Code (love those little bottles!!) Rock'n Roll. Actually that is the only black that I own.. Not so cool.

Hey, here's a fun fact: The very first nail polish that I wanted and had, was a black polish. And I think it was Mavalas. I think it was my black-season overall. You know, the phase where all you can wear is black. Thank god my mom didn't let me colour my hair then! I was like 10 or 11, and my hair was pretty blond!!

But now I need something to eat!! Bye :)

Old NOTD

Okay. I have a kind of a problem.. I so much would like to write in english, though I already started in finnish, but I´m not so sure if my skills can make it. Although, the fact that I don´t have any readers, finnish nor english (YET!!) ...

Well, I´ll just go with the mood of the day, and add some finnish words in if my skills fail me!

So to the nails. When I ordered my first konad stuff from cesars secret, they sent with it this little konad guidebook. You know, the black one where all the polishes and polishes are shown, and all the other stuff that includes in konading. With instructions too. So on the other side of that books cover, I found so pretty mani, which had orange and black in it with some silver stripes and konad flowers made with silverpolish. I did it with different colours, and here are the results:

So for the base, I used China Glaze Purple Panic, which is bright neon and awesome! Actually that´s my first China Glaze! I spent very much time choosing this, because I really don´t have enough money right now (when have we?). The stripes I made using Art Club Midnight Blue, and outlined with silver polish and toothpick. My black, white and silver art polishes are on their way!!

I would have wanted to add those white flowers on every nail, but didn´t have time to do that. So only the thumb and the ringfinger. And the flower is from the plate m57.

Okay. Now I will go and hunt some giveaways!!
