Hello! Today I’d love to show you a floral nail design that I did about a week ago. As far as I remember, the initial idea was to do a gradient manicure and decorate it with some glitter… While waiting for the gradient to dry, I got distracted by a bright red Zoya nail polish […]
Essence
White flowers on pastel lilac
It’s not autumn yet and it’s still summer here in Saint Petersburg, although I would question that as it’s been raining non stop for several days already, and now it’s quite cold outside… I practically felt my mood being dragged down by the weather, so I decided to go for a light floral nail art […]

Yesterday the opening of the blossoms was announced in Tokyo. Kyoto and Osaka are forecast to follow on April 2. Yes, don’t be surprised, […]
Day 19: Galaxy Nails
Galaxies and space traveling theme for today’s nails. I’ve never tried to paint anything like this before, all I knew is that I’ll need to use a sponging technique. I watched a couple of tutorials, and then I’ll googled for a galaxy image. Space is incredibly beautiful! I found so many amazing pictures of galaxies, […]
Day 17: Glitter
Today is one of the easiest 31 Challenge days, because there’s no need to paint any nail designs :) For the Glitter day I decided to make a swatch of one of my glittering nail polishes from Essence which is called Time for Romance. Here’s the manicure:
Essence Colour & Go – 73 Princess Prunella
Last summer when I was looking for legwarmers to wear with my white shorts and light pink sandals, I stumbled upon a small knitting shop at the local mall. There I saw a yarn of the color I really liked, and I though it would be great to knit a pair of legwarmers with it. […]
