Spring? Is that you?

Jeg fik simpelthen sådan en lyst til, at gribe min aller fineste detaljepensel og give mig i kast med endnu et watercolor design. Igen med blomster som mit motiv. Det handler bare om at skabe nogle "klatter" af vandfarve, og dernæst tilføje lidt ekstra farve hist og her, et par sorte prikker og til sidst lidt enkelte grønne blade, for at give designet et mere have-ish look. Jeg vil klart anbefale at prøve denne vandfarve metode, da det er nemt og kun kræver en pallette med forskellige farver. HUSK at sætte din mani med en top coat, da farverne vaskes væk næste gang du vasker hænder! 
(tak til min mor, for at opdage denne lille detalje, heh ups) .

For international readers:
I really felt like doing another watercolor mani. So i grabed my finest detailbrush and my waterolors and so I began. Again, I chose flowers as my motive. It's kinda my way, to get in the spring and summer mood. It's all about making some random shapes, add a couple of dots here and there, and a few leaves to give the mani a more garden-ish look. I would really recommed trying out this watercolor tecnique, as it's SO EASY and does not require alot of products. DO REMEMBER to set your mani with a top coat! If not, the colors will wash away, the next time you go wash you hands.
(thanks mom, for being my little labrat, heh ups).

French manicure in 5 simple steps

Da vejret er trist og gråt her i Danmark, besluttede jeg mig for, at lave en "fin og fancy, french mani" som en lille reminder om, at foråret nok skal komme! - Håber jeg.. Jeg kiggede igennem min neglelak samling, i søgen efter min trusty O.P.I "Alpine Snow". Dernæst greb jeg min top -og base coat og min nye favorit pensel fra YVES ROCHER. Manien ser meget mere kompliceret ud, end den faktisk er. 
Her er hvad du skal gøre, for at opnå den perfekte french manicure!

1. Put base coat på tippen af dine negle
2. Påfør hvid lak på tippen (behøver ikke at være perfekt)
3. Tag din pensel og "shape" din mani som du ønsker
4. Påfør en "nude shade" over hele neglen
5. Påfør din topcoat

The weather here in Denmark sucks at the moment. So i decided to do a "fancy french mani" to get in the mood for spring and summer. - Hopefully.. I looked through my nail polish collection, in the search for my trusty O.P.I "Alpine Snow". After that, i grabbed my top -and base coat and my new favorite brush from YVES ROCHER. The mani it self, looks much more complicated than it actually is. Here is what you should do, to get the perfect french manicure!

1. Apply base coat to the tip of the nail
2. Apply white polish to the tips (doesn't have to be perfect)
3. Grab your brush and shape your mani as you'd like
4. Apply a nude polish on top of the whole nail
5. Finally apply top coat

Used Nail Polishes:

Let's begin, 2016

 Denne efterårs mani er fra min tur til Prag. Jeg har holdt en længere pause som i nok har lagt mærke til, men den er ovre, og 2016 er begyndt. Jeg vil begynde at blogge igen når jeg har tid, da jeg også skal passe mit arbejde om min skole. Men her er jeg igen! Jeg har brugt min elskede Essie "Dress to kilt" som er en af mine favoritter fra Essie. Og dernæst min MoYou "Mother Nature" plade, for at lave ugle og blade designet. Til det har jeg brugt min lige så højt elskede O.P.I "Alpine Snow".

For international readers:

I will be blogging again, all though I still have to find the time to do it, because of work and school. But here I am! I've used my ever so lovely Essie "Dress to kilt" - which is one of my favourites! To create the owls and leafs, i've used my MoYou palette "Mother Nature". The white polish is my go to white polish, which is O.P.I "Alpine Snow".
