Unteal We Meet Again + GIVEAWAY!!

Hi guys! Today I will be showing you Unteal We Meet Again by Let it Glitter!. It is part of the new Spring Fling collection, which you can find here. Please keep reading, because at the end of this post there will be a GIVEAWAY!

Unteal We Meet Again is a gorgeous mint-y, teal-y (duh) base with holographic teal hexes, gold hexes and small gold glitter. Let it Glitter! is 5-free, vegan and cruelty free.

I applied 3 coats, but you certainly can get away with 2. After that I painted on a layer of Essie Good to go.
The polish has a nice consistency and is easy to work with. And it dried reeeally quick actually, I was pleasantly suprised!

 Alright, so.. GIVEAWAY TIME! Two weeks ago, Love Life Lacquer turned 2! And I reached 1000 likes on Facebook! So I figured it was time to organise a giveaway for my readers. Suzanne from Let it Glitter! was so kind to help me out and we are giving away her new Spring Fling collection -YAY!- twice -DOUBLE YAY!

As Suzanne and I are both Dutchies (she is from The Netherlands, I am from Belgium) we thought it would be nice to give away one entire collection to one lucky fellow Dutchie. The other collection will be divided over 2 lucky winners anywhere else in the world, they will have the opportunity to pick the 2 shades of their choice.

What are you waiting for? GO GO GOOOOOOO!

Good luck everyone!

WHOOPS I'm back! + something pretty exciting..

Hi guys! 

First of all: yes I'm still alive! It is not that I wanted to take a break form blogging, but I had to. I was more or less forced to shut down my computer, including the internet and all blogging-like things. So, why was that? I had to study for my exams. Simple as that. I have been studying non-stop for the past two months or so and FINALLY the end is near! Next Saturday is my last exam, so I'll be busy studying for the following few days and then I can go back to blogging on a regular basis. Until May. Because then it is booktime al over again, joy oh joy.

So, what have you guys been up to? I have seen some sharethelove's in my news feed (Well, actually I have seen a LOT). Is there something else I missed? I feel like I have been away for years! And my nail art got a bit rusty too :(, so I figured I really need to get back to blogging as soon as possible. I am truly sorry I let you all in the dark and I promise it won't happen again. Pinky promise!

So far my apology and explanation for my absence, now let's move on to something exciiiiiiiting! Love Life Lacquer turned 2 last week! I have been blogging for two years now who! And I hit 1000 followers on Facebook! Two big milestones which I want to celebrate with you! 

I wont go into details just yet, but I can already tell you that Suzanne from the Dutch indie polish brand Let it Glitter! (www.letitglitter.com) will be cooperating. 

Keep your eyes peeled the next few days for more information about our sneaky plan!

(It might involves indie polishes)

Byeeeee guys!

I wrote this on my iPad, and blogger didn't let me put links behind the words soooooo, yeah.

Something special... 1-year Blogiversary!

Hi guys! Today is my 1-year Blogiversary! Yay! Woohoo! Fireworks! Party! I wanted to do something special, but I wasn't quite sure what, so I asked Stephanie from WingDustCollections for some ideas. She told me I could ask a guest blogger. AWE-SOME idea! And I knew the perfect man (woman actually) for the job: Alexis from XOXO Alexis Leigh! Yay! Woohoo! Fireworks! Party! ENOUGH! Without further ado, here is her guest post:

Hi everyone, my name is Alexis! I'm so excited to be doing a guest post for Natasja's blogiversary! I love her blog (she's actually my Blogger of the Month this month!) so I was super excited to prepare something for all of you and her in honor of this special blogging milestone! So thank you guys for having me and thank you Nastaja for inviting me to guest post for you, I hope you all like the nail art I did :)

So before I show you guys the nail art I did, there's a little bit of a story behind it. I first met Natasja a few weeks ago on twitter then through my BotM submission form when she submitted her blog. I ended up choosing her blog for my Blogger of the Month and we began talking. She told me about this funny meme called cup of care.



I thought it was hilarious and obviously it stuck in my brain because when I was brainstorming nail art ideas I couldn't get the cup of care image out of my head! I told Nastaja I had an idea that would be really funny if it worked out correctly and I'm so happy it did because I kind of love it :)

I had to mix a few different colors with white because surprisingly I don't have many pastels! I used Floss Gloss - Glowstar as a base on my index finger and Essie - To Buy or Not to Buy as a base on my thumb. The other base colors were mixed with white to get pastel shades. I used a plain black creme for the outlines and white acrylic paint to fill it in. 

 

My thumb is definitely my favorite of the designs... the cup looks so tiny and cute! haha! Even though this design is really simple it took forever to create those thin lines and unfortunately my camera picked up all the mistakes! Ah well, I promise it looked better in person and from a little farther away :P

Thank you guys again SO much for having me and thank you Natasja for asking me to guest post, it was an honor!!!!! <3 :D

 

I love that empty cup of care! Thank you so much for guest posting, Alexis! 

Make sure to check out her blog, she is absolutely awesome and super talented!
