Tempest-Nails

Yeah, the Iron-Man nails had to make room for something more fitting for seeing The Tempest at The Globe in London today.

Iron-Man-Nails

I honour of the 3rd Iron-Man movie my mani is dedicated to the well-known hero.

Pink-and-black-leopard-Nails

Now that's more me. I got the black Nail Art pen from Barry M a couple of days ago and I really love it! The pink-ish base is Welcome To Roosywood from Catrice.

Red-and-glitter-nails

Sahra brought some Nail-Art stuff from essence when she came to visit, so I tried the hexagonal shapes first. Didn't really like it, it's just not me. The red is Essie's A-List.

Matte-leopard-nails

Done with A-England's Camelot and a matte top-coat from Manhattan.

Studded-Nails #2

The black is A-England's Camelot, the glittery one is Morgan Le Fay. Studs are the same ones as lat time from Andera Fulerton. I used a matte top-coat on the thumb.

Studded-Nails

My order from A-England arrived today, hurray! This is Guinevere and my regular white polish. The studs are from Andrea Fulerton.

Black-and-white-striped-Nails

I did these with striping tape; black polish on my natural nails. When I went to Pizza Express a day later I realised in horror that they fitted the black-and-white stripes that are on everything in Pizza Express, so these will henceforth be refered to as "Pizza-Express Nails".

Pink-and-cream Gradient-Nails

My Hostfamily gave me three bottles of OPI polish for christmas, and even though the pink is totally not my colour I had to try them anyway. So here's a gradient done with Come To Poppy and Play The Peonies.

Puzzle-Nails

I bought my first Essie-colours today! Decadent Dish and Recessionista combined with my Model's Own Nail Art Pen.

LotR-Nails

"The Hobbit - An unexpected Journey" is upon us, so obviously I need a matching design in my nails!

Christmas Nails #2

Christmas-Nails #1

Baroque-Nails

Used a Nail Art brush for the black patterns on a creamy base.

Water marble

I saw the 31DC2012 post on The Nailsaurus today and I figured I'd try water marbling again. Obviously, I'm rubbish, but I tried. 

The dark colour is Catrice How I Matt Your Mother. I really wanted to try my new Top Coat, essence Better than Gel Nails, which kinda destroyed the matt-effect.
The marbling is done with Catrice Welcome to Roosywood, LA Colors French White and Catrice Put Lavender On Agenda.

I'll probably take it off tomorrow, Friday tops. Stay tuned for updates!
