Summer Challenge Day 25: Summer Water Marble

Wow! Sometimes manicures go wrong, and this is one of them... I suck at doing water marble, and I was planning to do a dry water marble, but I forgot to prepare it yesterday. The problem is that I don't find good polishes that work fine in water, the polishes that I have just don't spread and they dry too fast. Well, that's why my manicure doesn't look summery at all, I used the only colours that I could.

                                ------------------------------------------------------------

Wow! A veces las manicuras no salen bien, y esta es una de ellas... El water marble me sale fatal, y por ello quería haber hecho un water marble en seco, pero se me olvidó prepararlo ayer. El problema es que no encuentro pintauñas que funcionen en el agua, los que tengo no se esparcen y secan demasiado rápido. Bueno, por eso mi manicura no es nada veraniega, he usado los colores que he podido.

See? But what I love is that I have finally used one of my new Duochrome nail polishes, H&M Lady Luck. As you can see it's a deep green with hints of blue and yellow.

For this manicure I used:

H&M Lady Luck

China Glaze Turned Up Turquoise

China Glaze Ingrid

                                ------------------------------------------------------------

Lo veis? Pero lo que si que me encanta de esta manicura es que he utilizado uno de mis nuevos pintauñas duochromes, H&M Lady Luck. Como podeis ver es un verde esmeralda con reflejos en azul y amarillo.

Para esta manicura he usado:

H&M Lady Luck

China Glaze Turned Up Turquoise

China Glaze Ingrid

Summer Challenge Day 17: Retro/Hippie/Summer of Love

Today my manicure is really simple. I have wanted to do this mani for a long time but I needed my nails to be longer. You know, french manicures look better when you have long nails. This is not the first time I do this manicure, because I love this design for summer, but I have always thought that it was a really hippie manicures, I don't know why, I suppose it's for the colours.


                                ------------------------------------------------------------

La manicura de hoy es muy sencilla. He querido hacer esta manicura desde hace mucho tiempo, pero necesitaba que mis uñas estuvieran más largas. Ya sabeis que las manicuras francesas se ven mejor cuando tienes las uñas largas.
No es la primera vez que hago esta manicura porque me encanta el diseño para llevarlo en verano, pero siempre he pensado que era un estilo muy hippie, no se por qué, supongo que será por los colores.

For this manicure I used:

Base: Yves Rocher Pastel Brillance nº03

French Tips: Bourjois Jaune Trendy, China Graze Turned Up Turquoise and Deliplus nº64

Crackle: IsaDora Graffiti Nail Top White Art

TopCoat: Seche Vite

Summer Challenge Day 14: Gardening

This manicure was a real pain in the ass!!! I wanted to try something new because I didn't want it to look just like the Chelsea Flower Show manicure that I did for this same challenge. And then I saw this picture and I thought it was all decided!


                                ------------------------------------------------------------

Esta manicura ha sido un verdadero co....azo!!! Quería desesperadamente hacer algo nuevo porque no quería que esta manicura quedara igual que la de Chelsea Flower Show que hice para este mismo reto. Y entonces vi esta imagen y pensé que ya lo tenía!

Of course I wasn't going to add the little tree and people, but my brother had something that looked like grass from the Warhammer Game and I decided to do the same.


                                ------------------------------------------------------------

Por supuesto no iba a añadir el arbolito ni las personas, pero mi hermano tenía  algo que parecía hierba del juego de los Warhammer y decidí hacer lo mismo.

I liked how it looked, but I couldn't stand the texture on my nails, it was really weird and I was thinking that I was leaving little grass all over my room, clothes, hair... 

                                ------------------------------------------------------------

Me gustó como quedaba, pero no podía soportar la textura en las uñas, era muy muy raro y estaba constantemente pensando que iba dejando hierbecitas por todo mi cuarto, mi ropa, mi pelo...

The worst part was how to remove it, I am just going to say that was harder than cleaning a really well packed glitter manicure... Well, at least it really is a gardening manicure hahaha. 

For this manicure I used:

Base: China Glaze Holly-day (Although I can't see it)

Used a top coat of Seche Vite and added Warhammer DIY grass on top when it was still wet.

                                ------------------------------------------------------------

La peor parte fue cómo quitárselo, sólo voy a decir que fue más difícil que quitar una manicura de glitter muy densa... Bueno, por lo menos es una manicura jardinera de verdad jajaja

Para esta manicura he usado:

Base: China Glaze Holly-day (Aunque no pueda verla está ahí)

Usé una capa de Seche Vite y le añadí la hierba de los Warhammer cuando todavía no estaba seco.

Summer Challenge Day 5: Favourite Summer Colour

Hi girls! Here I am as I promised before. I'm not going to be able to be totally updated today because I couldn't find time to make my Summer Sunrise mani, and now I am really tired, I need to sleep so badly...
Here it is what I have done for my Favourite Summer Colour.


                                ------------------------------------------------------------

Hola chicas! Aquí estoy como prometí antes. No voy a podes actualizarme completamente hoy porque no he tenido tiempo para hacer mi manicura de Amanecer, y ahora estoy muy cansada, necesito dormir con urgencia...

Así que esto es lo que he hecho para mi Color de Verano Favorito.

This colour was really hard to take a color accurate picture, and the flakies are far more awesome than it can be seen in the picture.

For this manicure I used:

Base: China Glaze Four Leaf Clover

Topcoat: Essie Shine of the Times.

                                ------------------------------------------------------------

Ha sido muy complicado hacer una foto en la que se viera el color bien, y los flakies son mucho más espectaculares en la realidad.

For this manicure I used:

Base: China Glaze Four Leaf Clover

Topcoat: Essie Shine of the Times.
