Cute in Blue

Press Sample

Hi Girls, (and boys if you are over here too)!

I was feeling a little bit down so, what is better than an old movie, some ice cream and paint your nails all at once? So while watching My Fair Lady and eating too much vanilla ice cream I created this super cute skittle design.

Hola Chicas, (y chicos si también estais por aquí)!!

Me sentía un poco de bajón así que, ¿qué mejor que una peli antigua, helado y pintarse las uñas todo a la vez? Así, viendo My Fair Lady y comiendo demasiado helado de vainilla hice este diseño super mono.

Deal Extreme Cheeky Jumbo Stamping Plate

Press Sample

Hi Girls!!

What did I say? I promised next post would be nail related and here it is. Since this winter my nails started to be really weak and break a lot, so I have not been able to try this amazing stamping plate from Deal Extreme.

Hola Chicas!!

¿Qué os dije? Os prometí que el siguiente post sería de uñas y aquí lo teneis. Desde este invierno mis uñas comenzaron a estar muy débiles y a romperse todo el rato, así que no he podido probar esta placa de estampación de Deal Extreme tan chula.

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.

Tri-Geeks: Pokémon

Hi Girls!

Another day of the Tri-Geeks Challenge! Yay! Right now I'm not feeling very well but this challenge keeps me motivated. I wanted to make something different for this Pokémon inspired manicure and I have drawn four of the main badges you can find on Kanto, the first Pokémon world. Anyway, if this doesn't seem enough for you I recommend to have a look through the Poke-Makeup Challenge, and this other Pokémon inspired manicure ;)

Hola Chicas!

Otro día del Reto Tri-Geeks! Bien! Ahora mismo no me encuentro en plena forma, pero este reto me mantiene motivada. Quería hacer algo diferente para esta manicura inspirada en Pokémon y he dibujado cuatro de las principales medallas que se encuentran en Kanto, el primer mundo POkémon. De todas formas, si no os parece suficiente os recomiendo que mireis el Reto Poke-Makeup, y esta otra manicura inspirada en Pokémon ;)

Hi Girls!!
Back to the routine in February, I hope this month would be less hectic and fuller of updates and manicures, but I also want to say that I might expand the blog a little bit talking about other Beauty related things, as I have already been doing. I hope you can understand that, as much as I love nails, I am not a one-dimensional girl and I like a lot of stuff that I also want to share with you! But today we have a nail related post so... Enjoy!



Hola Chicas!!
De vuelta a la rutina en Febrero, espero que este mess sea menos frenético y más lleno de updates y manicuras, pero también quiero contaros que tal vez expanda un pelin el blog hablando de otros temas relacionados con la Belleza, como ya he estado haciendo. Espero que comprendais que, aunque me encanten las uñas, no soy unidimensional y me gustan muchas otras cosas que quiero compartir con vosotras! Aun así hoy tenemos un post de manicura así que... Disfrutadlo!

Crumpet's Christmas Winter Challenge #5: Toys

Purchased By Me

Hi!

Do you know when sometimes you feel that a prompt of a challenge is cursed? You don't know what to do... Inspiration has gone on vacation... and every attempt you do ends on the "maybe someday I will have the courage to post it on a fails post" folder... Well this happened to me with this theme, I tried almost everything before I ended with something I liked. I hope you like it too.



Hola!
Sabeis cuando a veces un tema de un reto parece maldito? No sabes lo que hacer... la inspiracion se ha ido de vacaciones... y cada intento termina en la carpeta de "tal vez algun dia tendré el valor de subirlo en una entrada de fails"... Bueno, esto me ha pasado con el de hoy, intenté casi de todo antes de terminar con algo que me gustara. Espero que os guste a vosotros tambien.

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!!

Hi Girls!

I hurried but I couldn't make it on time for today... Here in Sweden it's already Sunday but well, I am sure there are some places that are still on Saturday, so I'll hold on to that...

Today I am showing you my very first purchased by me indie polish! Polish Addict Nail Color Banana Colada.

Hola Chicas!

Por mucho que he corrido no he llegado a tiempo... Aquí en Suecia ya es Domingo pero bueno, estoy segura de que aún es Sábado en algún sitio así que me voy a agarrar a eso...

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.

Hi Girls!
Today we are going to continue with the Saturday Swatches, and this week we have here this amazing polish called Witch Way? from Jindie Nails. Isn't it perfect to start the Halloween manicures?

Saturday Swatches

Hi Girls!
One of the new things that I am going to start doing here is a new section called Saturday Swatches, where I will start swatching my favourite polishes, or the ones that I think will be more interesting for you.
Today we are going to start with a pretty glitter from the Indie polish brand called Naild'it Unique Nail Polish.



Hola Chicas!
Una de las cosas nuevas que voy a comenzar a hacer por aquí es una nueva sección llamada Saturday Swatches, donde empezare a swatchear mis esmaltes favoritos, o los que me parezcan que son más interesantes para vosotros.
Hoy vamos a empezar con un glitter increíble de la marca de esmaltes Indie llamada Naild'it Unique Nail Polish.

Jellystone is a perfect mix of vivid fuchsia and aqua micro glitter, with tons of hex glitters in pink, purple, teal and silver, combined with bigger pink hex glitters and also tiny teal bars. If you love all kinds of glitters this is your DREAM polish!!



Jellystone es una mezcla perfecta de micro glitter fucsia y aqua, con toneladas de glitter hexagonal en rosa, morado, azul y plateado, combinado con glitter rosa grande y con mini barras de glitter. Si os gusta todo tipo de glitters este es el esmalte de tus SUEÑOS!!

I have to thank Alison for this beauty, because she sent me an enormous package full of Indie polishes as a gift, and this one was on the top of my list waiting until I could get some decent swatches to show you. I love how colourful it is, but still subtle in some way...



Tengo que agradecer a Alison esta maravilla, porque me mando como regalo un paquete enorme lleno de esmaltes Indie, y este estaba el primero de mi lista esperando a que pudiera hacer algunos swatches decentes para enseñároslo. Me encanta lo colorido que es, aun siendo discreto en cierto modo...

Here you can see all the different kinds of glitters... Glitter Party!! I decided to layer it over Kiko 383 making a gradient, and I wasn't at all disappointed with the colour combo! I think they are perfect for each other. The application was flawless, I didn't need to fish for the bigger glitters and I just needed one coat of Seche Vite to smooth it.



Aquí podéis ver todos los tipos de glitter... Glitter Party!! Decidí aplicarlo sobre Kiko 383 haciendo un degradado, y no me decepcionó la combinación de colores para nada! Creo que son perfectos el uno para el otro. La aplicación fue perfecta, no tuve que pescar los glitters más grandes y sólo necesité una capa de Seche Vite para alisarlo.

I hope you liked it, you can find Naild'it Unique Nail Polishes just clicking on their name, and I hope you will stay around waiting for the next Saturday Swatches!
See you ;)



Espero que os haya gustado, podeis encontrar los esmaltes de Naild'it Unique Nail Polish simplemente haciendo click en su nombre, y espero que os quedéis por aquí a la espea del siguiente Saturday Swatches!

 Para hacer el tono más especial, y poder hacer decoraciones con nail art con más facilidad, apliqué un top coat mate, lo que dejo la base preciosa. Luego con acrílico blanco y un pincel fino hice los detalles de encajes:

To make more special the tone, and to make easily the nail art decorations, I applied a matte top coat. Then with white acrylic and a fine brush I made ​ lace details:

Guest Post: Nail Polish Wars

Hi Girls!!
You can't imagine how excited I am to have Nicole from Nail Polish Wars here! I have been a long time follower and her work has always been a huge inspiration for me! I hope you enjoy with she has made for you.



Hola Chicas!!
No os podéis imaginar lo emocionada que estoy de tener aquí a Nicole de Nail Polish Wars! He sido una seguidora suya desde hace mucho tiempo y su trabajo siempre ha sido una gran ispiración para mi! Espero que disfruteis de lo que ha hecho para vosotros.

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

Hi everyone! I'm Nicole from Nail Polish Wars, and I'm so excited to be hanging out here at Nail Wish today!!

I started off with two coats of KBShimmer The Grape Beyond.

Next, I added one coat of KBShimmer Would Jubilee It?, a clear coat loaded with a gorgeous blend of multi-sized blue, teal, and bright pink dots and micro slices.  I followed with one coat of SV.

I paired Barry M Silver Foil with Shany plate SH04 for my ring fingers and Bundle Monster plate BM-213 for my other fingers.

I finished with one coat of Essie Matte About You top coat, and also added a pale blue rhinestone to my ring finger for a little something extra.

Not only do I love mattified glitters, but I also adore the matte silver as well.

I had so much creating this design, and I really hope you enjoyed seeing it as well.

Thanks so much for letting me hang out here at Nail Wish today!!  Happy Painting!

Guest Post: Nails Like Lace

Hi everyone!
Right now I am taking a plane to Sweden to start my Erasmus experience (That you can follow through my other blog "Un Erasmus de Bolsillo"),so I asked the amazing Amber from Nails Like Lace to do a guest post for you while I am away. I hope you enjoy it!



Hola a todos!
Ahora mismo estoy en un avión de camino a Suecia para comenzar mi experiencia Erasmus (Que podéis seguir desde mi otro blog "Un Erasmus de Bolsillo"), así que le he pedido a la increíble Amber de Nails Like Lace que hiciera un guest post para vosotros mientras estoy fuera, espero que os guste!

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

Hello lovely Nail Wish readers! Amber from NailsLikeLace here today! I was so honoured when Helena asked me to guest post, that there was no way I could say no!

You may or may not know that I am a HUGE fan of fishtail braid manicures. It is one of my all-time favourite looks. So today, I have one to share with you!

I used black and white acrylic paint for the fishtail braid, with Claire's color-changing polish Day Dream on the rest of my nails.

One of the things I love about this pretty glitter is that it is gorgeous with the fishtail braid indoors, and outside!

The color shift is intense, and it just sparkles like crazy! 

Unfortunately, topcoat does diminish the color-change effect a little. It isn't much, but it is noticeable. Topcoat is necessary for a smooth finish, though, with this one!

So I hope you liked my fishtail braid! They are actually a lot easier to create than they look, and are so much fun!

Everyone have a wonderful day, and thank you so much again to Helena for having me!!

¡Buenos días!
