Hello and Happy Valentine's Day!!

I think it is one of the first days that I achieve to have a Valentine manicure for the actual day. This time I not only have done it on time, but I freehanded the design!

Hola y Feliz San Valentín!

Creo que es uno de los primeros dias que consigo tener una manicura de San Valentin para el dia que es. Esta vez no solo lo tengo a tiempo sino que lo he dibujado a mano!

Pastel Galaxy Hand

Nothing to Disclose

Hi Girls!

It is being quite difficult to keep up with my new job and all the things I need to do for the blog. The truth is that I am having trouble to find time to paint my nails and do my makeup, even more to find the inspiration to do things that I really like. But Halloween is coming and this is something that always get my mind to work and this came up the other day.

Hola Chicas!

Esta siendo complicado llevar adelante mi trabajo nuevo y todas las cosas que necesito para el blog. La verdad esque estoy teniendo problemas para encontrar tiempo para pintarme las uñas o maquillarme, más incluso para encontrar la inspiración necesaria para hacer algo que realmente me guste. Pero Halloween está a la vuelta de la esquina y siempre es algo que hace trabajar a mi mente, y esto es lo que salió el otro día.

Tri-Geeks: Doraemon

Nothing to Disclose

Hi Girls!

These days I am not updating as much as I would like because I am already feeling that I have not much time less to spend here is Sweden and I am trying to stay at home as less time as I can, so I am almost not painting y nails at all! Anyway I couldn't miss this challenge.

Hola Chicas!

Estos dias no estoy actualizando tanto como me gustaria porque ya voy sintiendo que me queda poco tiempo aquí en Suecia y estoy intentando pasar el menor tiempo posible en casa, así que casi no me pinto las uñas! De todas formas no me podía perder este reto.

Tipos de Esmaltes: Crema

Nothing to Disclose

Hi Girls!

You know my tendency to start more than one challenge at the same time so I couldn't stop with the Tri-Geeks and I signed up for this new one. Un minuto para las Uñas is the mind after this, it's about kinds of polishes finishes, and I decided to join because I think it will be useful for you and also for me because I usually get really confused about this... Today we should post a Creme polish and I chose this one.

Hola Chicas!

Ya sabeis de mi tendencia a comenzar más de un reto a la vez, así que no me podía quedar solo en el de Tri-Geeks y me he unido a uno nuevo. Un minuto para las Uñas es la mente creadora, es sobre tipos de esmaltes, y decidi apuntarme porque creo que será util para vosotros y por supuesto para mi porque generalmente no me aclaro con estas cosas... Hoy teniamos que subir un esmalte Crema y este es el que he escogido.

Crumpet's Christmas Winter Challenge #7: Winter Characters

Hi Girls!

I'm sorry I skipped last prompt but it has been really busy with all the Christmas things and right now I am about to jump on a plate to Spain to be able to celebrate New Year's Eve with my family.

At least I hope you enjoy this funny 3D manicure!

Hola Chicas!

Siento haberme saltado el último día del reto pero he estado muy ocuada con las cosillas de Navidad y ahora mismo estoy a punto de montarme en un avión a España para poder celebrar el Fin de Año con mi familia.

Por lo menos espero que disfrutéis esta manicura 3D tan graciosa!

Crumpet's Christmas Winter Challenge #4: Christmas Traditions

Purchased By Me

Hi Girls!

How is the end of your exams/work going? I hope you all have at least a few days off to celebrate Christmas. Are you planning something special? Are you going somewhere? Because that's what today's prompt is about, traditions! and what you usually do on Christmas.

Hola Chicas!

Cómo va ese final de exámenes/trabajo? Espero que todas tengais al menos unos días libres para celebrar las Navidades. Estais planeando algo especial? Vais a algún sitio interesante? Porque de eso es de lo que va el tema de hoy, tradiciones! y de lo que soleis hacer por Navidades.

Crumpet's Christmas Winter Challenge #3: Holiday Colours

Press Sample Purchased By Me

Hello Girls!

Christmas is getting nearer and this challenge is also moving forward and I am liking every day of it! Today I have made a skittle manicure (all nails different but forming a cohesive whole) with my favourite Holiday Colours, white, green, red, golden, silver and black, did I miss any? haha

Hola Chicas!

La Navidad se va acercando y este reto tambien va cogiendo carrerilla y me están gustando cada uno de los días! Hoy he hecho una manicura skittle (todas las uñas diferentes formando un unico conjunto) con mis Colores de Fiesta favoritos, blanco, verde, rojo, dorado, plateado y negro, se me olvida alguno? jaja

The perfect holiday manicure! On my Index Finger I have used a base of China Glaze Holly Day and then topped it with Yes Love Snow Flack 17. The Middle and Ring Fingers have Flormar 310 as the base, but the first one has stripes made with Wynie 302 and BPS Striping Tape; and the second one has different sized dots made with China Glaze Passion. Last, but not least, we have Kiko Starry Black one of the polishes from the Sugar Matt Collection that is an exact dupe for Zoya Pixie Dust Dahlia.

Es la manicura de Navidad perfecta! En mi dedo Índice he utilizado como base China Glaze Holly Day y encima Yes Love Snow Flack 17. Los dedos Corazón y Anular llevan Flormar 310 de base, pero el primero tiene líneas con Wynie 302 y Stipping Tape de BPS; y el segundo puntos de diferentes tamaños hechos con China Glaze Passion. Por último, tenemos Kiko Starry Black, uno de los esmaltes de la Colección Sugar Matt que es un clon exacto de Zoya Pixie Dust Dahlia.

I think my favourite nail is the index, I really like that Yes Love topper and pairing it with Holly Day was a terrific combination! Also I have seen so many times textured polishes used for accent nails and I have never tried it until now, and I think I like it, although texture is not what I really like to feel on my nails...

Creo que mi uña favorita es la ïndice, me encanta ese topper de Yes Love y juntarlo con Holly Day hizo una combinación genial! Además he visto tantas veces los esmaltes con textura como accent nails y nunca lo había intentado hasta ahora, creo que me gusta, aun sabiendo que textura no es lo que más me gusta sentir en las uñas...

Overall I am very happy with how this manicure turned out. What do you think?

See you soon!!

En general estoy muy contenta con como ha salido esta manicura. ¿Qué pensais vosotros?

Nos vemos pronto!!

Crumpet's Christmas Winter Challenge #2: Winter Nature

Purchased By Me

Hi Girls!

Seriously... this thing of posting and no one getting the updates and reading it is making me really sad... I am working on a solution but I may have to start the blog layout from scratch and I have no ideas... So if you are reading this I would appreciate a comment, just to know that you are still out there...

Today I am bringing you the second manicure of the Crupet's Christmas Winter Challenge, inspired on Winter Nature.

Hola Chicas!

De verdad... esto de hacer entradas y que a nadie le lleguen las actualizaciones y nadie lo lea me pone tan triste... Estoy trabajando en la solucion pero puede que tenga que comenzar con la plantilla del blod desde cero y no tengo ideas... Así que si estais leyendo esto me alegraria mucho que me dejarais algun comentario, solo para saber que seguis por ahi...

Hoy os traigo la segunda manicura del reto de Navidad de The Crumpet, inspirada en Naturaleza Navideña.

Crumpet's Christmas Winter Challenge #1: White Christmas

Press Sample

Hi everyone!!

I am finally back, I have had a few rough weeks but now I am finally on holidays! Another reason why disappeared is that I am having some issues with the new template, because it's interfering with blogger in some way and my posts don't get published on the Blogger Reading Board from where most of you get the notifications from my blog... and I am still trying to figure out what is the problem...

Today is the first day of this year's Winter challenge, I hope you like it because, although it is the Crumpet's Nail Tarts Challenge, I made the themes and the banner (Which you can see on the Facebook group)

Hola a todos!!

Ya estoy de vuelta, he tenido unas semanas estresantes pero ya estoy de vacaciones! Otra razon por la que desaparecí es que estoy teniendo problemas con la plantilla nueva, esta interfiriendo con Blogger de alguna forma y los posts no se publican en la lista de lectura desde la que la mayoria de vosotros recibis las notificaciones del blog... y todavia estoy intentando averiguar cual es el problema...

Hoy es el primer día del Winter Challenge de este año, espero que os guste porque, aunque es el reto de Crumpet's Nail Tarts, yo he hecho los temas y el banner (Que podeis ver en el grupo de Facebook)

Skulls and Roses

Hi Girls!

This year I have not joined any Halloween Challenge, but that doesn't mean that we are not going to have any Halloween manicures around here, in fact, from today every manicure will be Halloween themed (except maybe one review I prepared a long time ago), starting with this Skulls and Roses design.

Hola Chicas!

Este año no me he unido a ningúr Reto de Halloween, pero eso no significa que no vayamos a tener manicuras de Halloween por aquí, es más, desde hoy todas las manicuras van a ser de temática Halloween (excepto tal vez algun review que tenía preparado hace tiempo), comenzando por este diseño de Calaveras y Rosas.

Guest Post: Popping Nails

Hi Girls!
Charlie, from Popping Nails  is a lovely girl that I met during the Seven Deadly Sins Challenge, I loved all her work and I wanted you to know her because if you love nail art you will also love her blog. Just look what she has done for today!! So freakin' cute!! Just perfect for me, I love it...



Hola Chicas!
Charlie, del blog Popping Nails  es una chica lindisima que conocí en el Reto de los Siete Pecados Capitales, me enecantó todo su trabajo y quería que vosotros pudierais conocerla porque si os gusta el nail art os va a encantar su blog. Solo mirad lo que ha hecho para hoy!! Es increíblemente monoso!! Perfecto para mi, me encanta...

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


Hi everyone first let me introduce myself, I'm Charlie from the blog Popping Nails. I was part of the Seven Deadly Sins Challenge with Helena and when she asked me to do this guest post for her I jumped at the chance as I loved her work during the challenge. I wanted to do something special for these nails and whenever I need to do that, I go back to what I'm best at which I describe as character nails. I had had the idea of doing Disney nails for a while so I thought I'd take my opportunity now.

Going from my thumb across I have Mickey Mouse, Daffy Duck, Donald Duck, Minnie Mouse and Pluto. I personally think Donald turned out the best but I'm thrilled with the overall look. To create Mickey and Minnie Mouse I used Barry M Pinky Caramel as my base, Barry M Black, Sinful Colors Snow Me White, Barry M Coral for Minnie's bow and that same coral mixed with Barry M Strawberry Ice Cream for the mouths. Donald and Daffy Duck are done with Snow Me White as the base, Barry M Yellow for the beaks, Barry M Strawberry Ice Cream and Cobalt Blue for the bow and hat and that same blue mixed with white for the eyes. Finally on Pluto I used Butter London Bumster for the base colour and with a bit of black mixed in for the facial lines. I then used the same black and white as before and finished with Strawberry Ice Cream for the tongue. I know that was a lot of polishes but I think they're worth it. 

I want to thank Helena for asking me to do this post as I had so much fun doing this design and I hope you all like it as well!

Guest Post: The Clockwise Nail Polish

Hi!!
I had some amazing guest bloggers left from the time I was away and I wasn't going to forget them!! Also I wanted you to know them because they are stunning!! Today we have Cristina from The Clockwise Nail Polish, I love her stamping manicures and I really suggest you go check her blog! But today she has something different just for you.



Hola!
Todavía me quedan algunas bloggers increíbles del tiempo que he estado fuera y no se me iban a olvidar!! Además quería que la conociérais porque son realmente estupendas!! Hoy tenemos aquí a Cristina de The Clockwise Nail Polish, me encantan sus manicuras estampadas y os recomiendo de verdad que vayais a ver su blog! Pero hoy nos ha traído algo diferente solo para vosotros.

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

Hello there!! :)

What a pleasure to be here in Nailwish! Hello to you! I'm Cristina from Portugal and you can find me at The Clockwise Nail Polish blog. I follow Helena since like... for ever! I can't even number the times her nail art work, creativity and manicures blown me away... I think you understand me quite well lol. So, it was with a lot of excitement that I said yes (!) to be here today :) But then come the issue... what to do?! I took a lot of time to think of something and eventually decided to do what I've been wanting to do for a couple of months: a pastel galaxy nail art.

The trick about pastel galaxies is that there's no glitters to it; it was also a difficult task to choose polishes. I started by painting my nails white with China Glaze Snow (3 coats). After dry the fun begun! Using a piece of a makeup sponge I randomly sponged Kiko 385 Blue Pastello, Elixir Make-Up Nº 62 and Pastel Nº100; I assure you it was a coincidence to use only European polishes hehe :p Next was the stars. Normally here I would use a glitter polish in a traditional galaxy nail art. But as a pastel nail art, I did dots here and there using a dotting tool and China Glaze Snow :)

China Glaze Snow, Kiko 285 Blu Pastello, Elixir make-up Nº62 and Pastel Nº100

What do you think?? Do you prefer the traditional galaxies or would you try a pastel one? I assure you I love this version! It stayed in my nails for three days :p I'm now crazy and want to try more pastel shades like purple, pink, yellow, white...! Endless possibilities :p Nail wish readers and Helena, I'm repeating myself but it was a huge pleasure to be here! :D Kisses to you all! :)

BornPretty Store Stripping Tape

Hi Girls!

Today I want to show you a new nail art item from BornPretty Store. I have been wanting to try the stripping tape for so long... and I finally have it!!

Hola Chicas!

Hoy os quiero enseñar otro producto de nail art de BornPretty Store. Llevo queriendo probar los stripping tape tanto tiempo... y por fin es mío!!

Source: BornPretty Store

They have a lot of colours to choose from, and I asked for #27 Laser Silver Grey. 

I wanted to show you the multiple things you can do with the stripping tape, so I made a skittle manicure, a skittle mani is one where all the nails are different but form a cohesive whole, this time all designs have been made with the same pallet of colours and also using stripping tape.

Tienen muchos colores entre los que escoger, y yo pedí el #27 Laser Silver Grey.

Os quería enseñar todo lo que podéis hacer con el stripping tape, así que he hecho una manicura Skittle, una manicura Skittle es en la que todas las uás son diferentes pero forman un conjunto cohesionado, esta vez todos los diseños están hechos con la misma paleta de colores y usando el stripping tape.

The first nails is the easiest one, just one coat of Yes Love Pastel Purple and a geometric design on top using the tape. The middle is a colour block design with Yes Love Pastel Purple, Flormar 400 and Easy Paris 402.

La primera uña es la más sencilla, simplemente una capa de Yes Love Paste Purple yun diseño geométrico usando el stripping tape. El del dedo corazón es un diseño colour block con Yes Love Pastel Purple, Flormar 400 y Easy Paris 402.

The rest of the nails is what you can do painting on top of the tape and removing it later, on the ring finger we have a gradient from light to dark purple where I placed the stripes and removed after I had done the gradient on top, and finally on the last nail I did he same, painted one coat of Yes Love pastel Purple, placed the tape making stripes and applied one coat of Flormar 400 on top, and before it was dry I removed the stripes showing the colour from underneath.

El resto de las uñas es lo que puedes hacer pintando encima del celo y retirándolo luego, en el dedo anular tenemos un degradado de morado claro a oscuro donde coloqué las tiras y las retiré tras haber hecho el degradado encima, y finalmente, en la última uña hice lo mismo, pinté una capa de Yes Love Pastel Purple, coloqué el celo haciendo líneas y apliqué una capa de Flormar 400 encima, y antes de que estuviera seco retiré las tiras dejando ver el color de debajo.

I hope you liked it! The design took me no longer than 20 min, so it's a good solution for when you don't have time to make something difficult but you don''t want to wear plain nails. Remember that you can find a lot of different stripping tape Here, and that you can use my Coupon Code to get 10% discount!!

See you soon!

Espero que os haya gustado! El diseño no me llevó más de 20 min, así que es una buena solución para cuando no hay tiempo de hacerse algo complicado pero no queremos llevar las uñas lisas. Recordad que podeis encontrar muchos tipos de stripping tape Aquí, y que podéis usar mi Cupon para tener un 10% de descuento!!

Nos vemos pronto!
