Yay købte et par lækre farver i H&M i dag.. skønt at komme forbi og så faktisk finde noget… ikke særlig tit det sker.. Flasher dem nok lidt senere i dag 🙂
Then & Now… a different NOTD
I saw a similar post on another nail blog some time ago, I’m sorry I cant remember which. And that made me look at some old photos from when I started blogging until today. And I must say i have improved my polishing skills.. quite a bit 😉 I can now make a fresh mani that is not all over my cuticles in about 5-10 minutes.. As to before it took me(If it were to be just a bit nice) about half to a full hour(maybe sometimes even more :o).
So lets see one of the first on the blog
This is if I have to say myself.. awful when i look at it now.. To much of my hand on the picture and polish all over the place.
Although I have never been that bad at putting it on I have never been anywhere near what I see on Scrangie, Vampy Varnish and all the other “pro nailers” out there. Have to be honest I couldn’t even figure out how they could make the manis so nice. Buuut somehow as I’m getting better at putting on polish it stays inside the lines.. so to speak 😉 I also used that trick of putting nailoil around the edges but it didn’t really work for me. So I just got a steadier hand which is nice now 😉
This I did yesterday in about 7-8 mins. (not counting the drying time ofc.)
Barry M – Limited Edition Pink (don’t really have a name I think)
So to conclude.. i guess practice makes perfect or at least better…. 😛
I would love to see some of starter pictures of the nailblogs out there.. Would be fun ;D
Other “fun” facts:
This was my nailcollection in march 2009
Not much there ^^
And this is all my polishes today September 2009
I made a little circle with my Barry M’s 😀 And i guess its not so hard to guess which color is my favorite 😉
And this is where i store them
The small polkadot bag can hold exactly 12 Barry M’s so i usually take that with me if im going somewhere for a longer period.
I know its not the worlds largest collection, but its so hard to find the good brands in Denmark, have to order them home from US and it can be so damn expensive. So i get my more expensive brands through Nailmail.se(this is such a great concept btw, subscription to nailpolish, sent in the mail to you.. whats not to love? :D).
I was a nail biter until very recently. 😮 ye I know shocking aint it? 😛 but somehow when I got more in to polish I just stopped.. have no idea how, guess having some pretty nails was more appealing to me then flossy short nails.
I cut my nail when I think they get to long. I don’t like too long nails… not on me at least.. maybe because I have so chubby fingers.. haha ;D
And I think thats enough with the facts 😛
Hope you all have a great weekend!
Barry M Small Makeup Bag
Det var en af de tasker jeg bestilte med hjem da jeg fik min sidste Barry M ordre. Lige pt er der 8 neglelak, 1 læbestift, 1 lipgloss og 2 glitter eye crayons i. Så selvom den er lille og kompakt er den rummelig 😉 og så elsker jeg bare de farver den er i 😀 Lige mig ;D Prisen var 34 kr. cirka men jeg købte den med i en samlet ordre hvor jeg fik 20% rabat så den har nok været lidt billigere 🙂
L'oreal Collagene Extreme Waterproof Mascara
Umiddelbart update på denne er at børsten er liige en tand for stor, har besvær med at nå de lidt kortere vipper nærmest næsen… øh ved ik hedder det det? 😀 Men i hvert fald måtte jeg have fat i en anden mascara i dag for at få fat i dem. Måske er det bare en tilvænningssag… må se om det går bedre i morgen. Måske har jeg også lidt bedre tid der 😛
Barry M pakke!!
Så kom min lille pakke fra Barry M og skønt at få noget nyt ind som man ved har været billigt! 😀 Som den kvikke læser nok kan spotte er det også en anden ting imellem, da jeg var i Matas i dag og blev nødt til at købe den nye mascara fra Loreal med, ekstra collagene alt muligt stads, så den glæder jeg mig til at prøve 😀
En lille smagsprøve på Barry M – 295 / Turquoise, den er skøøøn på 😀
304 / Mint Green ? 210 / Once upon a time ? 295 / Turquoise
Den grønne læbestift skifter farve pink og det naturlige niveau af alkali(?) afgør hvor pink den bliver.. og kan så afsløre jeg har en del af det.. for hold da op 😛
Min nye Loreal Extra Volume Collagene waterproof mascara
Disse herlige farve til øjnene.. rigtige fede farver, dog er jeg lidt urolig for om de er lidt for fedtede og derfor vil lave sin egen lille kant i løbet af en aften.. Det står endnu uvist og vil komme på prøve inden længe 🙂
Og udover dette købte jeg også to små makeup tasker, dem skal jeg nok flashe på et andet tidspunkt 🙂
