Knitted Nails - Sugaring Technique | Nail Art
Hi guys! I have been meaning to do sweater nail art for so long. And I also wanted to try out the sugaring technique. There! Two birds, one stone. Today I want to show you my first attempt at knitted nails and sugaring. I am quite pleased with how it turned out: soft colours, sparkly, looks like a sweater. Yep, it checks all the boxes for me :-D. No, I will be looking into it a bit more and try it again later. To get if more refined, you know ;-). Now, let's move onto the rest of the pictures, shall we? <3

Bloody Drips | Nail Art
Hey guys! Remember the glitter drip nail art I posted last week? Well, I am back with a bloody version. It is a nice, classy alternative for all those gore-themed nail arts out there. A perfect nail art for Halloween if you want to keep it rather subtle ;-). If you want to know how I achieved this look, then please keep reading! <3

Pastel Magpie Glitter Rockstars + Stamping | Nail Art
Hey guys! Remember my Rockstar gel nails from a while ago? Well, yeah, I liked them so much I decided to do another set. The last one was quite vibrant so this time I went for a more pastel look and with some stamping on top. I swear, this is the first time I stamped over glitter and I die. I love it so so much. It is super glitter-y, but the stamping makes it a bit more wearable on a day to day basis, or is that just me who thinks that way? :-D Anyway, if you want to know what glitters I used, then please hit the jump. <3

Christmas Cookies | 12 Days of Christmas Challenge
Hola guys! Today's prompt in the 12 Days of Christmas nail art challenge is Christmas cookies. But I figured, who needs cookies when you can have glitter? HA. Just kidding, cookies are great, too. My first idea for this prompt was 3D cookies, but that didn't work out great because I don't have 3d gels or acrylic powder. So yeah, I had to find something else to do. Next best thing was glitter!

Silver & Gold Glitter Ornaments | 12 Days of Christmas Challenge
Hi guys! The third prompt already. Today's theme is gold and silver glitter. I thought this was going the easiest prompt of all, but this is the only one I redid. I just did not know what I had to do, so I went for a gold and silver gradient. Nothing fancy, nothing creative, just a plain old gradient. Oh, well, it is a good nail art for the holidays. And with good I mean, easy and quick ;-). I got some more pictures and all the details after the jump!

Magpie Beauty Party Collection | Swatch & Review
Hi guys! Today I will be showing you the Party Collection by Magpie Beauty. Magpie Beauty is a UK-based shop that sells high-quality glitter, dusts and pigments. I have been drooling over the holographic glitter since July and a few weeks ago, when the Party Collection was released, I decided to take the plunge and just buy them all. Jup, BUY ALL THE HOLO. And so far, no regrets, at all. They are just beautiful, ridiculously beautiful. Everytime I look at my bottles, I fall in love all over again. And again.
For my swatches I used gel polishes, it's super easy to apply the glitter that way. First you do your 2 coats of colour and cure, then you push the glitter in the tacky layer, put on 2 coats of top coat and cure. Bam, done, glitter! I used a cheap Essence Cosmetics smoky eyes brush to apply the glitter. It is a dense brush so perfect so push the glitter in the tacky layer and buff it in. Oh yeah, make sure to buff it in for a flawless effect.
I should stop rambling now and just let you see the swatches. So, make sure to hit the jump! ;-) <3
