NOTD: Ebalay Sky Blue Shiny Glitter By crissiesmind



   Hello ladies,
   
   Eram tare nerabdatoare să vă arăt oja Ebalay Sky Blue Shiny Glitter (J003), pe care am primit-o de la KKCenterHK, pentru că este încântătoare. 
   Pentru mai multe poze şi nişte cuvinte în plus despre această frumuseţe, vă invit să daţi click pe Read More.

   It's finally time to review the products I've been sent. The first product is the Ebalay Sky Blue Shiny Glitter (J003) nail polish KKCenterHK sent me, which is absolutely gorgeous!
   If you want to see more info and pictures, please click Read More.

   Oja arată cam aşa/ The nail polish looks like this:

Cât de frumoasă poate să fie! How pretty can it possibly be!

    Preţ/ Price: USD $7.82
   O găsiţi aici/ You can find it hereEBALAY-J003
   Cantitate/ Net Capacity: 15ml
   
   Este foarte frumosă, dar nu poate fi folosită singură decât dacă aveţi răbdarea necesară să aplicaţi suficiente straturi. După aproximativ trei straturi, acoperirea e decentă, dar nu formidabilă, însă nu mă deranjează. Cred că peste o bază albastră va arăta şi mai bine. Eu cu siguranţă o voi încerca în combinaţie cu oja Farmasi de aici.
   It's really pretty, but it can't be used by its own, unless you have the patience to apply enough layers of polish. After about three layers, the coverage is ok, not amazing, but that doesn't bother me. I believe that if it's applied on a blue base, it will look a lot prettier. I will definitely try it with this Farmasi nail polish, as a base.
   






xoxo, Cristina

NOTD: Studs and a Neon Gradient By crissiesmind



   În postarea de astăzi, pe lângă manichiura în sine, care mie mi-a plăcut tare mult, vreau să scot în evidenţă capsele pe care le-am primit de la KKCenterHK.
   In today's post, aside from the mani, which I really liked, I want to show you the nail studs I got from KKCenter HK.




   Cam aşa arată:
   This is how they look:

Un grand n'importe quoi By cocosnailss


C'est ce que m'évoque cette manucure quand je la regarde. Un grand n'importe quoi, pas moche au point de l'enlever, mais trop fouillis pour moi, pas assez unique, BREF ça n'empêche que vu que c'est pas non plus l'échec du siècle, j'ai décide de vous la montrer, cette manucure à la zob^^
A la baseeee, j'étais juste partie sur l'idée d'essayer mes premiers water decals, des jolies plumes de chez kkcenterHK, sur une base blanche (comme la si talentueuse Tamit nous l'a fait ici même). Mais voilà, je voulais pas non plus faire ma copieuse à faire tout pareil, mais après avoir posé les decals (simple cette bêtise, plus que les tattoos je trouve!), je me suis dit que tous les ongles blancs ça n'allait pas, que j'aurais du faire un ongle rose, tout ça, que j'aurais pu rajouter de jolis strass, tout ça. J'ignore pourquoi je vous raconter tout ça (encore un), parce qu'au final j'ai fini par faire tout ça...
 Des dégradés de couleur pour rappeler celles de la plume. Et l'erreur fatale, ultime même, impardonnable en soit, ajouter des paillettes du l'Oréal - Confettis. Il me faisait trop envie ce petit là, je l'aime d'amour mais je ne pense jamais à le mettre. Ba voilà, là j'ai eu ma dose de confettis ce jour ! Mais je trouve que ça gâche la douceur qui devrait régner sur cette manucure, pas vous?
Vous pouvez quand même retrouver ces jolis decals ici, et en faire meilleur usage que moi je l'espère ! Je reviendrai surement avec le reste des plumes dans une manucure plus adaptée, moins "dur".
Et une petite réduc de 10% avec le code cocosnailss, si jamais ça peut vous être utile^^
Bizzz les gurlzzz
(et si vous voulez le nom d'un vernis des dégradés, dîtes le moi ;))


Thank you, cocosnailss

KKCenterHK Stamping Plate Review By nailtreasures


Hello all! Today I have a long overdue review for KKCenterHK’s stamping plate [NNAIL-SPPQA11]. I received this plate in return for my honest opinion.
I actually used this stamp once already, but didn’t like the outcome of the nail art. I am quite pleased with it this time around.
DSCN3508
For my non accent nails, I used Nina Ultra Pro – Black topped with Ebalay – 018. I reviewed Ebalay 018 in this post.
For my accent nail I used Sally Hansen – Sun Kissed with a black cat stamped on top.
DSCN3506
I really like all of the images on the plate, but today I only have one to show you. I’m still working on my stamping skills, so you’ll be seeing more of this plate in the future.

You can purchase this plate at KKCenterHK. If you’re into stamping I would totally recommend this one because the images are all pretty cute :)
Thanks for reading!

NOTD: N.Nail Orange Loose Glitter (KKCenterHK) By leonacarolina


Finally, I have my second review for KKCenterHK ready to show you! As well as receiving this super cute pink and white glitter polish, I also selected some loose orange circle glitter.
image
You can find this product on the KKCenterHK website here. It’s listed as ‘N.NAIL 2.5mm Circle Glitter-Orange Honey Orange’ and the product code is NNAIL-HB19-2-5mm.
image
As you can tell by the product name, the glitters have a diameter of 2.5mm. I’m not sure what they are made out of, but they feel plastic-y. They are thicker than other loose glitters I have had experience with, but are still very easy to work with, they just stick out a little further when they are stuck to your nail. Colour-wise, they are yellow-toned orange with a blue flash.
The little pot retails for US$7.20 and it is packed full of glitter. There is probably hundreds, if not thousands, of individual glitters in the container - well worth the price, I think.
I actually had some issues deciding on a mani to use these in. It wasn’t the fault of the glitters, but instead my sheltered imagination and limited nail art capabilities. I chose the glitter because I thought it would be a fun challenge but I really think I overestimated myself. I tried several different manis before deciding to post this one, as it was the best in terms of photography and execution. My most ambitious idea that simply didn’t work out was to use the glitters as the centre of flowers. Perhaps I will give that another go in the future. Anyway, enough lamenting, on to the mani!

I know, I know - it’s so uninspiring, but seriously, I tried. Plus it looked a lot better in person (believe me!). The base is three coats of Essie Off The Shoulder, a gorgeous pink creme. I attached the glitters with a small amount of nail glue. I waited a couple of seconds for the glue to get tacky, and then I dropped my glitter on top, and moved it around with the end of an orange stick to get it in the right place on my nail. You could attach these by sticking them into slightly wet polish, and then applying your favourite top coat over everything like normal. This would also mean the glitters last longer on your nails, but since I paint my nails every day, longevity wasn’t a high priority.
So, yeah, a bit of a fail art attempt really! How would you incorporate these into a mani? What kind of nail art do you think would suit these cute glitters?

Sexy Girl Glitter from KKCenterHk By nailphotosbylani

 Hello everyone!



For this manicure I used the Black and the Hot Red N.NAIL Sexy Girl Glitter. I chose these fun nail art glitters when KKCenterHk contacted me, and wondered if I would like to try some of their new products! :-) Yeay!!! And as usual you can use my coupon code. They sent me these two boxes filled with enough Sexy Girl Glitter for 50 years or something:


Look at those cute girls! Or should I say "sexy glitter"? I hope this post won't result in a lot of spam...




This is what I used:

N.NAIL Sexy Girl Glitter Black
N.NAIL Sexy Girl Glitter Hot Red
Red nail polish (Ruby Kisses: MNP31 Ruby Kisses Red)
Black nail polish (GOSH: Nero)
Base coat and top coat
Tweezers



Because my nails are curved and the glitter is completely flat, I had to bend the glitter to the shape of my nails. I thought about different tools, but ended up using tweezers and my fingers. But because of the rough handling of the glitter, and because I later got Seche Vite on the fingers that I tried to work with, and on both sides of the glitter, some of the red color was removed in the process. But the black one still looks fine. So next time I'll be more careful and not use my disposable medical plastic tweezers, but one with flat tip for the bending.



According to KKCenterHk you can use this glue. It is a multipurpose glue. It's the same glue that I used for the nail foil. Maybe that would have given a better result, but I used top coat this time.

If you want to buy something from KKCenterHk, the coupon code "Nailphotos by Lani" will give you 10% off. But sometimes they have larger discounts for special events, so remember to take a look at the main page too.

Thank you KKCenterHk for giving me all this pretty glitter! :-)

Bubble Nails -Nail Art Tutorial- By pocket-full-of-candies


Hi!
Today's show is...


Goodbye to Spring and Summer Bubble Nails
In this part I am going to show you a simple tutorial of the following nails.

Today I'm going to show you the first part of my mini spam that will be up for these couple of days. As you know in the post before this one I talked about what I got from KKcenterHk in the mail weeks ago. I didn't review it right away because of various things that we're going on but now I will start. For today I will show you this mini tutorial. It's super simple,cute and fun. Hope you like it!


First you take your favorite colors that match well with each other and create a quarter circle on the tips of your nail. It's sorta like a French but instead of a line on the tips of your fingers it's a circle. I decided to alternate directions so it does not look awkward. After that you take a pretty clear glitter polish and do one or two coats on top of the circles you just created. Remember to let dry in between coats and after the glitter nail polish you apply a top coat and your done.


Finished Styling:


These last photos were taken in the shade.



It's very simple. In my opinion these nails are perfect for spring/summer but now it's too late. Around the time I did these it was late summer time but I'm posting this now that it's early fall.

The nail polishes I used were:

Sinful Colors - Island Coral
Sinful Colors - Cloud 9
Sinful Colors - Hazard
Bettina - Candy - Sherbet
&
EBALAY Warm Orange Shiny Glitter Nail Polish


My addiction for icees still continues.

I found these really cool grandma earrings at a pharmacy for 50 cents each and i got these two. I really don't know why I got them because I know I'm not going to wear them.







Bye-Bye.
