Orly - 'Saturated' with neon dots.

On Monday, January 05, 2015 By Inge (PolishSis) // No comments:

So how are you liking the new look here on my blog? Doesn't it look clean and fresh? No more clutter, the colors are lighter, new template...it is still a work in progress ofcourse, but I'm already liking this fresh new start of 2015.

I'm also picking up on the 52 week challenge from The Crumpet with my 'Dotting tools' manicure, 'Dotting tools' being one of the possible challenges this week.
You could also choose 'pink and aqua' for this week, but that combination of colors sounds like Barbies dreamhouse to me (and I really dislike that girl).

That gorgeous deep dark neon purple is Orly 'Saturated', I love love love this color. Unfortunately, my camera does not love this color, but I managed to get a somewhat accurate picture of the color anyway.

Application: 2 / 3 coats, depending on how thick you paint your layers. I did 3 thin coats, because with 2 thin coats I had some nails that weren't completely opaque.
The polish dries a bit matte, but not matte enough, so a topcoat (matte or glossy) is recommended!

I used the dotting tool to make three white dots on each nail, and after that I dotted neon polish over the white dots.

Merry Christmas from Polishsis

Everybody have a wonderful Christmas with your friends, family, loved ones, dogs, cats, Netflix, bottle of wine, whatever is your perfect Christmas!

We are celebrating this Christmas with family. First day of Christmas we have a fancy catered dinner at his family and on the second day of Christmas we will have a homecooked dinner with my family.

At this moment, Christmas Eve I'm doing my nails in my joggingpants, nothing fancy yet.

My love did prepare a wonderful dinner with pork roast, hot cinnamon apples with cranberries and baked potatoes, mjum!!!

For these nails I used smART Nails nailstencils to add the designs. You can read all about these in my previous posts.

Although I really liked this manicure, I am still doing a new manicure for Christmas. I wanted something a little more classy to match my outfit, So now I'm doing something black and gold..or silver, it's not finished yet :-)

I love the pinky nail best, with the silver ribbon over the red stripes. My pinkynails looks giftwrapped!

Thank you all for watching!

Enjoy your Holidays :-)

Lots of love, Inge (PolishSis)

Dots and splatters with SmART Nails + Giveaway! - part 4

Day 4 of my Smart Nails Week, have you already entered the giveaway???

If you didn't, what are you waiting for? :-)

Check the giveaway at the bottom of the page right now!

I really liked the SmART Nails splatter design, so I wanted to try a little more elabotare mani for this manicure.

For the base I did a dotticure with 2 colors of blue. After that dried, I used the stencil to add the splats.

Unfortunately I smudged the splatter design a bit when I added the topcoat, So here is some free advise: don't use a thick half-dried-up topcoat over a wet design (stupid me). Wait until the design is dry OR use a topcoat that is in a better condition. (I couldn't find my good bottle, so I used the old one, big mistake)
