Still alive! Random little post + Kitty Update #10

Wow....I'm sorry I haven't posted in such a long time but I have been so extremely busy with school and friends and musical-thingies! Anyway, I'm not going to dedicate an entire post to apologizing and explaining why, but I'm just going to do a little post with some recent swatches and a short kitty update. Let's begin :)

GOSH - Lambada. 3 coats, no topcoat. 

Sem-kittypic!

Catrice - No Snow Patrol & Mila-kittypic!

Essence Breaking Dawn Part II - Jacob's Protection

 

Luna-kittypic!

cheeky little stash-pic!

I haven't really been wearing loads of different nailpolishes lately (simply because I didn't really have a lot of time) but these are the ones I did wear and made pictures of. On to the kitty update :D

The kittycats are doing great. They've gotten really big! But not yet as big as Luna ofcourse haha... Here are some pictures!

Mila ♥

Sem :D

Luna <3

I love this picture, lol. 

Luna is getting along a lot better with the kitties. Sem is always testing his boundaries and playing with Luna. Mila usually just avoids her but is definitely not afraid of her...whenever Luna tries to eat her food she just pushes her away and protects her food. 

I'm really going to try to post something every week again but I'm not promising anything. Have a great week!

Crushed Luxury

Hello lovely ladies, before I start talking about my nails, I would love for you all to take the time to vote for Lucy in the glossybox contest! Just click this link: http://fb.me/1gCbmyBRx and "Like" the picture on facebook :D Lucy, I really hope you win this contest, yours is BY FAR the best!

Now, on to my nails of the week! In the package I received from Lucy I found Color Club - Untamed Luxury, a green/tealish glitter. Then, on friday, my order from nailpolishfashion arrived! I ordered China Glaze - Crushed Candy (wich is kind of the crackle version of my favourite nailpolish ever, For Audrey!) and decided to combine these two. The result? Crushed Luxury...

normal light, no flash. PLEASE, don't look at my dry, ugly hands :o

I ♥ this! First I applied 1 layer of Untamed Luxury over my favourite black of all time, MAX black...

normal light, with flash.

artificial light, no flash. I made this picture to show you how the colour pretty much looks in just normal daylight!

Before I could apply Crushed Candy I had to apply 2 layers of topcoat to make this finish less gritty lol.. But, after that completely dried, I finally applied Crushed Candy :D

artificial light, no flash.

close-up of my middle finger, normal light and no flash. (such a high ISO, sorry about that..)

Yes. I adore this. 

Do you like this layering combo?

OPI - Yodel Me On My Cell

Sorry for not posting so long, but last week I just couldn't find time to write something! On to the polish. In my last post I told you I now own my very first OPI nailpolish.. I've posted about 2 OPI polishes before, but they were both borrowed from Lisa. Now, I have my own! It's Yodel Me On My Cell from the Swiss Collection in Fall 2010. I still want Ski Teal We Drop from that collection, and I hope I can order that one soon :D
Would you like to see some pictures of YMOMC? 

Bottle pics ♥.♥

I applied 3 coats to make this pretty-polish opaque, and I'm OK with that. It's a big bottle!

normal light, no flash.

close to the window, no flash.

It was such a P.I.T.A to photograph! Every time I took a picture I thought it would be colour accurate but when I looked at it.. It was really blue. And YMOMC is not that blue, it's really turquoise! Anyway, I still love it. The colour is perfect. It's even a bit duochrome, in some light.. Drying time is AMAZING! I could touch my nails after 1 minute without getting bumps and stuff in the nailpolish and just apply the next coat without getting bubbles on my nails. Whaaaat?! I told you, amazing. 

Now, my dear followers, I have to continue making my homework.. Thanks for reading!

Salomé 29

Hello lovely ladies! Today I'm going to show you one of the polishes I bought in France. This is a teal polish from Salomé, wich I bought at a market for €1,- As always with teals, it's so hard to capture the real colour so I have this for you, wich shows you pretty much the excact colour:

Now, on to my nail pics! I used 2 coats of the polish and no topcoat.

normal light, with flash.

sunlight, no flash.

Then I stamped (yep, again) the flower design from Konad M71 with the white Essence stampy polish. Now I don't know if any of you have the same problem, but since my nails are longer I find it harder to stamp full-nail images. The bottom goes fine, but then the top.. My stamp doesn't even touch the top of my nail?! If you have any tips, help me because I messed up my ring finger and pinkie because of this haha..

normal light, no flash. excuse the stamping fail on the pinkie haha!

kittypic!

If you have any tips for me, leave it in the comments!
