Inspired by Joyce (read I copied her)

I'm trying to post regularly, but also trying to build up more posts, so I'm slowly getting there. I've been following Joyce from What's on my nails today? for some time now and I am so envious of her skitlettes. She makes everyting go together and make it seem super easy.

Joyce recently did a summer skitlette here. And I totally fell in love. And I had to give it a go, which it wasn't easy...
I started with two coats of Hean 274 from the Jungle Pop collection on my thumb and index. My middle and ring finger is sporting two coats of Hean 235 (Ordinary Misfit). My pinky has two coats of piCture pOlish Heavy Metal.
So I decided on a darker holo, as it's winter here by us (well technically spring) and on Ordinary Misfit instead of white. For the stamping, I used Nubar Silver Mist and HeHe 43.
I'm not sure if I did Joyce's mani any justice. What do you think? I'm a little on the fence about... And I really need a clear stamper. I can't wait for our Secret Santa to be over... Just so I can start buying things for me again.

Thanks for reading!

Rosey-ish

I've been staring at this minty colour polish from the I love Hean Pastel collection and I was itching to use it. And when I did I was slightly disappointed, as it required 3 coats to be opaque, but this is only my laziness showing. It's a beautiful colour though.

So I started with the three coats. While that was going I used my Simply Neat mat to make the decals. I used my white Essence stampy polish and BP-73. I then randomly coloured in the roses with I love Hean 877, 874, 876 and 871, all from the Pastel Collection.
Peeled off the decal, stuck it on my nail and then, because I felt like it, dotted two flowers on my index finger.
The roses didn't quite come out the way I wanted, but it was easy and cute. What do you think?
Thanks for stopping by.

Bubbles!!

I haven't had much inspiration when it came to do doing my nails lately, most of the time I'd leave it to late to take proper pics or I'd not even bother with taking pics. Anyway.... This was another quick mani.

I started with two coats of I love Hean 879 from the Pastel collection. Then stamped bubbles from HeHe 66 with Tip Top Astronaut.
Then used my dotting tool to make dots on my ring and pinky. Yes, this was super quick. And required no effort.
What do you think?
