Guest Post: Very Emily

Hi dear readers !

Are you ready for another guest post ?
This week I'm glad to welcome Emily from the blog Very Emily ! When I discovered her blog, I immediatl loved her style. She does a lot of freehand with inpiration from flowers, cloth prints, nature ... But my fave style from her are those cute vintage flowers she does so well ... And guess what ? That's what she does for her guest post, she even made it to match my blog color scheme :)


Hello Gwenn's lovely readers! 

When Gwenn asked me guest post for her I felt so honoured and excited! I immediately thought of doing something inspired by her blog's colour scheme. I ended up doing flowers since Gwenn mentioned she liked my floral prints so this is what I came up with! 
I really love doing flowers, they always look really pretty but are very easy to create. I used thin nail art brushes and stripers.

And the polishes I used were:
Barry M Berry Ice Cream
Barry M Bright Purple
China Glaze VIII
China Glaze Electric Pineapple
China Glaze Starboard
Models Own Nail Art Pens

I really hope you like them! I also would like to thank Gwenn for this amazing opportunity, I had so much fun creating these and I was really happy that you asked me to do a guest post. Thank you so much!

Thank you Emily ! 
Aren't these vintage flowers too cute ? I just love everything about them :) I'd like to learn to create them but my tries were unsuccessful for the moment ^^ 
Emily's blog talks about nail polish and nail art but not only ! You'll also find make up, reviews, great pictures ... She also makes a lot of reviews for Born Pretty Store and shares nice advices !
Did I mention she's from Belgium, like me ? We can moan together about belgian shops that don't have the same stuff than in Germany or Netherlands and our difficulties to find certain brands, lol ;)

Please visit Emily's blog here: http://www.emilydenisephotography.com/blog/
You'll even find tutorials to create cute flowers !

I hope you liked her guest post as much as I did :)

Have a nice day !

Barry M - Silver Cascade

Hi dear readers !
It's a rare thing to see Barry M polish here on the blog. I like this brand a lot and have some make up from them, especially my beloved Dazzle Dusts, but only three polish. I have to change that :p

Silver Cascade is in reality a cascade of glitters ! It's a very light and clear pink base with tons of silver, red, green and blue small glitters. That's one of the most sparkly polish I have in my stash :p My camera didn't even want to catch it decently ...


I didn't know how opaque it would be, so for my first use I put it over a random black polish (I think it was an Essence :) )
Now you can see how opaque it is with one coat, next time I won't hesitate to use it alone, two coats will look nice :)


Finally I was able to get something a bit more neat with my old cam (still no new pics on the blog, I have a lot of "old" ones to show you before). You can see clearly the different colors of glitters :)


I love a lot that kind of polish, I have a lot of cheap nail polish with that kind of glitters but they don't apply as opaque as this one. Most of them need many coats and don't dry well. So, this one is a must have if you're a glitter lover :D

And if you're affraid of the removal, just use the foil technique I talk about in my routine page, it's easy and goes really faster than classical removal ;)

Do you like it ?

French mani & Konad

Hello, chers lecteurs !
Hi dear readers !

Dans le post précédent, je vous montrais ma première french. J'ai eu envie d'y ajouter un peu de fleurs avec la plaque Konad M51 et les vernis Barry M. Violet Gold Shimmer et Sephora Cassis.
Je ne possède qu'un vernis Barry M. mais je suis addict à leur fards à paupières Dazzle Dust ^^ Si vous ne connaissez pas cette marque anglaise, allez faire un tour ici: Barry M.
Sur les photos, Violet Gold Shimmer semble tirer vers le gris, mais en réalité il a des reflets changeants, comme un duochrome violet et doré. Il est très discret pour une Konadicure, c'est pourquoi j'ai ajouté des fleurs plus voyantes en Sephora Cassis ^^
J'ai terminé par une fine ligne au liner argenté sur les bords des ongles, et quelques strasses assortis :)

In the past post, I showed you my first french mani. I wanted to add some flowers with Konad plate m51 and Barry M. Violet Gold Shimmer and Sephora Cassis polishes.
I only own one Barry M. polish but I'm a huge fan of their Dazzle Dust eye shadows ^^ If you don't know this english brand, you can visit their website here: Barry M.
On the pictures, Violet Gold Shimmer looks grey/silver, but in real life it has changing reflects, like a gold/violet duochrome. It's very discreet for a Konadicure, so I added some more flowers in Sephora Cassis ^^
Finally, I made a thin line with a silver liner and added some rhinestones :)


Qu'en pensez-vous ?

What do you think about it ?
