Pink panda funky french nail art

It has been quiet around here, and maybe it will continue like that because I'll soon start work full time and I'll guess it will take some time to get things organized so I can get my blog routine back on track. :)

Today I'm showing country no 22 in the Where-In-The-World-Challenge which is China. My choice was simple, I like pandas and pandas also happens to be the national animal of China..so I did a pink version of my green version which you must have seen in my profile picture by now. ;) First I painted the pink and then the panda on top. :D Hope you like it.

FACE it - Bonny Girl, swatch

As you might have noticed I adore matte glitter and here I'm showing one of my ebay findings from a brand called FACE it. From the description it seems to be a Korean brand (correct me if it's not) and I bought it for US $4.99 which is about 32SEK. In the description I've seen "Colored Paper Nails" so I suspect that could be a collection name and the specific name of this one is Bonny Girl, even though the bottle don't have that written on it.

The polish it self have white and pink tiny hex glitter, white and pink short bar/string glitter and white and pink heart glitter in a clear base. The glitter was really dense and it was easy to apply (no fishing or placing), below is 2 coats on top of a black creme base. I'm really happy with this polish and I recommend it and I'm looking forward to use it in some nail art soon. :)

I've got two more from the same brand as you see below and I've bought them from a seller called f2plus1 if you also want to check them out.

Have you heard about this brand before? Do you like it or is the string glitter too scary for you? ;)

Cow funky french nail art for the Netherlands

Today has been one of those less good days, happily it soon will be over.. Anyhow, I've totally neglected my blog today but I really wanted to join nail art sunday and this is also contribution no. 13 in The Where In The World-challenge. No. 13 is the Netherlands. You remember Hungary and their national flower; tulip? and that I found it so weird that tulip wasn't the flower of the Netherlands? However one thing doesn't need to exclude the other, apparently they both have, like about 5-10 countries "share" the lion. So, then that's solved. Since I wanted to do something more unique for the Netherlands I decided to go for their national animal which apparently is the milk cow! I've been wanting to make a cow nail art for awhile so this was a good opportunity.

I decided to make two accent nails with the actual cow head and the rest of my nails with a "cow pattern funky french". I like this, it feels cool and cute, hope you like it too. :)

The first polish in the row; China Glaze - Sensuous has literally no text anymore,  it peeled off like if it wasn't attached in the first place. Weird and ugly to show on picture but what can I do? :)

Mustache Movember nail art in pink

I'm pro themes, I like to encourage them and participate in them as long as I got time and feel inspired. Princessemma is a blog which have a theme day called Pink Thursday every thursday, obviously. ;) And for some days ago she announced that she had come up with a bunch of themes that participants could do. And today it's mustaches, basically one could show any random pink polish or any random pink nail art or a some how pink inspired mustache nail art. What can I say, I felt inspired. I've also wanted to show a mustache nail art since it's "Movember"; prostate cancer awareness month. The color of prostate cancer awareness month is blue, but this awareness nail art is in pink, and that's pretty nice too, right?

Let me present you to Mr. Mustache; he comes in a pale pink, there's both a matte and shiny version and he has a mustache. Check out the pictures and you'll see. ;)

B&W glitter gradient on pink base

Hi! Nail art with pink is best combined with black and/or white, at least in my opinion ;) An easy way to add something extra to a manicure is to add glitter and I love the matte black and white glitter trend going on. As a base I've used Collection 2000 - 184 and then I've used Ninja Polish - Sticks n' Stones as a gradient starting from the cuticles. For some odd reason I haven't taken that many photos nor photographed the bottles, but sometime two is enough, right? ;) I like this, the pale pink is feminine and the glitter feels edgy.

31DC2013 Day 30; Pink panther nail art

Today's prompt is inspired by a tutorial and my choice was something made by LOVE4NAILS and if you haven't heard of her, she makes awesome youtube tutorials of different nail art on her long beautiful nails. I've followed her for at least 5 years and her videos was probably what inspired me to continue and learn how to do proper nail art. My choice fell on her quite new pink panther nail art tutorial which I've included at the bottom of this post. I did some changes and didn't follow the tutorial 100%, for example mine is done with polish and she has made her version with acrylics.. I like my result (I mean it's possible to see that it's the pink panther) but it's quite obvious that her version is much more realistic. My favorite part of this nail art is actually the nails with the paws, they're so cute.. haha :D
