Week 51: Red Nails

If you have been following my blog for a long time, you may know that I love wearing red nail polish. It was in fact a red polish that converted me into a polish hoarder, I mean, lover. For the red nails week, I wore Jordana Holiday Red and I topped it off with Hot Flash from the same brand. On my accent nail, I did a white nail topped with Jordana Lunar Lights and a little holly :)

Week 50: Snowflake Manicure

As I mention in my Snow post, I love snowflakes; I love snow and winter but I highly dislike being cold. I suffer from cold hands and feet... It is quite painful sometimes. Here is my snowflake manicure along with what I used:
Tips: Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Rapid Red
Glitter: Jordana Hot Flash
Stamping plate and polish: m59 and Konad White

Week 48: Feather Manicure

Hello there!
I apologize for dropping so suddenly in your blog list... Yes, it's me and I am back :)
I am so sorry for having been gone for so long. Let me do a short summary of what has been going on and why I hadn't blogged. My winter break started a week ago and prior to that I was stressed to the max because of finals. I had 2 finals for one same subject and I think I did not get any sleep during that week but I am glad it all paid off. Also, I was adjusting to a new schedule because I was chosen as a volunteer for a hospital and getting a spot there is not that easy. In the middle of my lack of sleep and new schedule, I was going through some rough emotional/sentimental turmoil... Everything settled and I am glad to be back, I hope you understand :)

I did these nails the week before finals and I think that they sort of look like peacock feathers. Here is what I used:
Base color: Zoya Zuza
Stamping plate and polish: BM212 and Maybelline Color Show Bold Gold
Dots: WnW fasdry Teal of Fortune, Kleancolor Metallic Fuchsia
