BundleMonster's Nail Stamping Plate Organizer

Hi!

They finally came up with a great idea: a nail stamping plate organizer!

This is what BundleMonsters says about it:

We have the ultimate storing solution for your Bundle Monster nail stamping plates - we have designed our exclusive stamping plate zippered organizer! This portfolio styled case has a modern shiny vinyl, faux-croc skin textured outter cover with a soft velvet-like lining. This holder includes 14 soft, matte, see-through vinyl pages that have 6 slots per page. Each slot is designed and is strong enough to hold 2 plates per slot, which gives you 168 plate storage! Each slot fits a standard 5.6 cm nail plate and has a U-grooved design to make putting in and pulling out nail plates that much easier. Its portfolio design is slender and thin which makes storing the case easy for tight storage or easy to pick up and go for your nail parties. This case is also great for professional settings like a nail salon. The front of the case has the official "BM" logo etched in metal. Bundle Monster is a registered trademark of Remi Collections LLC and is exclusively distributed by Bundle Monster.

Wow! 168 plates to store in it... Gotta have it!

Unfortunately I wasn't the only one who thought so, because the organizer is already sold out! :(

Ah well... We'll keep an eye on it :D

Are you one of the lucky girls who happen to buy it before the rest did? :)

Preview: OPI Spotted

Hi girls!

Altough we're still not finished with moving in, unpacking boxes etc., here's a little preview of my newest OPI polish straight from Sephora in France:

This is OPI Spotted over Gosh Flamingo...

I haven't got the time to try it on all nails, but I soon will do...

Do you have already have OPI Spotted in your stash?

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!

Simple French Manicure...

Hi girls,

Today I have a simple French Manicure to show you...

Phone picture

I achieved this manicure with a French Manicure set from Essence:

I've bought this set about 10 years ago, I think, and I liked it so much, that I immediately bought two more back up-sets. The white polish in this little set is very good to make French tips with! These bottles contain 5 ml and the set was available in a milky pink (way more pastel and less pink then showed in the picture above!) and in a peachy set. I don't exactly remember how much this set was, but it couldn't be more than €3,99.

Ofcourse I used a basecoat, my favorite, Orly Nailtrition!

It actually is a nailhardener, but I always use it as a basecoat. It works wonders, I really have tried a lot of hardeners, but this is my alltime favorite!



BTW: Did you noticed my nails are a lot shorter??




Here's what happened...

I've accidentally cut my nail with a razorblade...! Such a big chunk out of my middle nail!
And it's my lefty, my photo-hand! Ohh nooooo... !

So yeah... I had to file them way shorter :(
In the 1st picture you still can see a little dent, but hopefully they soon grow a bit longer.

Do you like the simple and plain French Manicure?

Thanks for dropping by!
