Black & White challenge! Part 5! #8

The next tutorial in the Black & White challenge series! 

 This time the challenge was to make a design with a black base and color ontop. 

 The little black dot on my ring finger is not a dot of polish. It's a little black rhinestone. I had bought some a long time ago but never tried something with them. I saw them lying on my wardrobe before I started filming the tutorial of this look. And I decided to use them in this design.

The polishes I used on this design are listed below


- base coat,
- NYC City Blackout
- a nameless lightblue polish
- two black teardrop shaped rhinestones
- top coat  

Black & White challenge! Part 4! #7

It has been quite some time since I last postd a tutorial. I have been really busy and just didn't had the time to edit. I filmed it some days ago and now i finally got the time to edit the tutorial and upload it on Youtube! 

Part four of the Black & White challenge: A white base with color. And this is what I made for this challenge

The products I used on this design


Sensationail kit!

I got this starterskit about one and a half weeks ago.

My parents bought me this as a late birthday present. And I am so happy with it! It is a easy way to quickly make some beautyfull nails that will last two weeks. (I wanted to test if that was really true, I kept on the polish for about one week and maybe two days and then I just wanted to paint my nails another way. But the polish still looked like I painted them the day before!)

In the starterkit you will get a color of your choice, a LED lamp, primer, base/top coat, some lintfree whipes, gel cleanser and a file. You also get a manual where you can follow the step by step instructions to get the best results.

As I have told before, my nails are extremely fragile and thin. This is why I wanted to try this kit out. With this gelpolish on my nails they feel a lot stronger. 






This is how my nails looked when I just painted them!


The red color really pops! and the shine didn't dissapear when the polish dried. I really like the result. But the removing of the polish... It was a pain! You have to use pure acetone and let the acetone 'soak' your nails and after that you have to scrape off the polish with a special tool. My nails looked so bad after all the polish was removed :(

I do think I'll do this again even though I really hated to remove the polish. But that doesn't change the fact that I really like the shine and the durability of the gelpolish!
