Beauty UK - Urban Girl

I grabbed Beauty UK Urban Girl set when I was in London. This mint shade turned out to be my favorite one from the set, as well as one of the most worn shades during the summer.
The formula is on the runny side, but still ok to work with. The shade is quite sheer so two or even three coats are needed for full opacity.

Lumene - Stories Tarinoita

This pretty was a gift; actually I won it in a giveaway some time ago. Color is hard to describe, a brick like mix or red and orange. It gives a perfect creme finish, one of my favorites.

H&M Spending Cash with Carl

Spending Cash with Carl is a gorgeous electric blue shade with a little shimmer. The shade gets a stunning shine in the sunlight. It has good opacity and the formula is nice, easy to work with. The brush is also fine, and easy to handle. Do use the base coat with this shade, it can stain nails badly.
This is two coats.

Nailed It

Nailed it literally. We are repairing the roof this week, and of course it is expected that I help and asist as much as a girl can. While doing some cleaning around the house, I wanted to avoid the brick falling on my head. So I impulsively stepped back, directly to a nail sticking out of a piece of wood. Big auuuuuuuuuuu. Man that hurt. I limp a bit, and it drives me crazy because it feels like ages to get from one place to another. But the healing started, so it is a good thing I guess.

Back to Life

Woha, March has been one of the bussiest months ever. During the whole month I have spent at home no more than five!! days. The rest of the time I was working or travelling. I barely found time for my boyfriend and family, and no time to make or post any mani at all.
I feel like my nails are having a rebellion, due to the lack of care for them, as they are brittle, and split, so I had to file them down completely. :(  I am annoyed for that matter, because I really hate having short nails. Now I pamper them and beg them to grow as fast and healty as possible. :)

Here is a little bit of spring ;)

Wet n Wild Night Prowl

My very first Wet n wild nailpolish was actually a gift. I won a giveaway, but due to the holidays I claimed my prize one day too late. But Ulmiel from Did someone say nail polish? was so kind to send me a package of 4 nailpolishes anyway. Thank you so much. Go and check out her blog if you don't already know it. ;)

One of the polishes was this Wet n wild pretty. It's a beautiful dark base with purple glitter. But what I really disliked was the formula. After applying the first coat, I had to wait for it to dry, only then I was able to apply the second coat. If not, the second coat had simply wiped out the first coat. The result was a nail ful of blank spots where the second coat had wiped off the nailpolish. Maybe it is just me, but I'm not used of such things with other polishes.


As you can see, winter has taken its tool on my cuticles. :S That is also the reason for only one picture. After taking all the pictures, I realized that the poor state of my cuticles is only emphasized on the pictures. *off she goes to find some cuticle butter*
