Caviar & Icecream

Mmm, you've probably seen these before with some other brand (hint: it also starts with a C) but Catrice has done a gorgeous nail collection:
Pretty pearlies for nails
But I couldn't go for Caviar alone, so I went for Ice cream too:
Catrice C01 I scream Ice cream!
I fell in love with the pretty pink glow inside of the pale lavendel colour...

(N)artsy continued...

I got more active in being (Nail)artsy and found a new blog and excellent tutorial recreating a probably most definitely expensive dress of style-Guru Miroslava Duma on nails...


So, with the help of missladyfinger's tutorial and some sponges I actually got this result: Sunset nails!

MissLadyfinger has some really fun and fashion-collection inspired tutorials. Because we all like to afford the dress but something it's not that reasonable, so the nails can be lots of fun too.

Thumb(s) up...

I wouldn't post a link to a tutorial without trying it myself. I used the colours featured in my previous post and added Nails Inc Basil street for a dash of nude1


Ehm Military? I think it's more Safari right now, so my nail should be dashing around spying up lions and antilopes, that suits me better than being in the army anyway.

Basically I'm not that good with nailart anyway but it looks fun from a distance. And I guess practice makes perfect?

1.Actually Nude is a disciminating name because it only suggests that nude comes in the pale (Caucasian) colours whereas the Caucasians are really in the minority with their colour), but let's not get too political and keep it Shakespearean that "A rose is just a rose, by any other name it would smell as sweet". So Nude for a paled out brown?
