I'm still alive...

... but we're SO busy with rebuilding our house, so it can take a while before I'm back ...

But I will be back!

Something old, something blue...

Hi girls!

While we're busy with wrapping wineglasses and packing boxes, I found some time to show you a polish that I've swatched before, so it's nothing new, but in my opinion a very pretty and eyecatching polish...

H&M U Must Have This

U Must Have This is, literally, a colour you must have! It's such a pretty bright turquoise blue!

This polish is also very opaque, so if you're careful enough, you could get away with only one coat.

Unfortunately this colour is discontinued... If I ever find a lost bottle in a H&M store, I'll buy it immediately!

You must have noticed that lately, my pictures are different. That's because I now take pictures with my phone, only during moving to our new house! After we're settled I'm going to use my Sony Alpha camera and my lightbox again, like I used to, so don't worry!

In the meantime I hope these pictures are good enough... ☺

What do you think about this colour? Do you like it as much as I do?

Flip flop...

Hi girls,

Sorry I'm neglecting my blog a bit lately... I'm very busy with packing, because we're moving out soon...

So I'm using my sparetime wisely and that means that I don't have much time to do my nails and photograph them... But today I have some snapshots from China Glaze Flip Flop Fantasy for you:

Excuses my dry cuticles, my hands are having a hard time because of all the hard work...

China Glaze Flip Flop Fantasy is a neon orange polish which dries matte... Application was a bit of a pita; streaky and when I applied the 2nd layer, the 1st layer dissolved a bit... Very strange! But finally it pretty much has evened out when I applied 2 coats of my favorite topcoat (INM Out The Door). I could have applied 3 coats, so it would have turned out more opaque, but I was a bit tired and wanted to go to bed, so I decided to go with 2...

As you might know, it's always hard to capture neon colours on camera...
So irl the colour is much, much brighter then showed here...

Why is it so hard to capture neons? Does anybody have a clue?


Thanks for stopping by!
