23 & Holiday Guest Post #7: Pink Polish Addict &

It's my B-day today! :party I turned 23 today, I feel old - not old old but growing up and I want to be a kid like forever. :$ I had a lovely day with a friend, we went to see firework in my town and had a lovely dinner. :e

 Cupcakes for everyone! :e :party

My nails are still naked, well with a coat of base coat, but Marketta made so lovely manicures just for my B-day. I wish we were closer, so she could do same manis on me. :) She runs a blog at Pink Polish Addict and yap, you guessed, I found a pink soulmate. :P

HAPPY BIRTHDAY IVANA! Ok now that I've said that I will introduce myself lol. My name is Marketta from Pink Polish Addict. I offered to do Ivana's birthday post for her today while her beauties are on hiatus, and she's recovering. I love me some Ivana, you know why? She's my pink enabler, and the sweetest person like EVER! I have been reining in the pink on my blog (I have TONS of pink) but she told me let loose, I sure don't hold back! So I'm going to start letting the pink out full force. This post is a day late because I had a bit of a dramatic day and I'm visiting my family for the holidays and they are a bit far out, so I have been a bit technology deprived. First up is NOPI All Kendall-ed Up which is a dark hot pink creme. I used 2 coats of AKU, special white polish, Bundle Monster ip's bm205-bm14-bm03, Seche Vite, and INM Northern Lights. I keep forgetting that I have nubbins now and I don't have as much room for multi-stamping fun so there's a bit much going on. This represents what I want Ivana to get tons of today: Presents, Love, and Cake! I just love the light holo that NL gives, it adds the perfect pop.

I know that Ivana loves some glitter, so of course I couldn't forget about the glitta! Below is 3 coats of Sally Hansen Gem Crush: Lady Luck. Lady Luck has a clear base packed with dark pink glitter, and bigger holo glitter. IRL this polish is gorgeous and I couldn't capture its true beauty.

Thanks for letting me share 2 mani's Ivana and I hope you had the most amazing birthday ever!

Kisses

Marketta

Aren't these totally my colors???? <3 I just knew I will like them. <3 Thank you so much for your lovely words Marketta, you're so sweet and of course for doing my b-day manis. <3 I thought I don't need this Sally Hansen Gem Crush but now... I will have to think about it again. :i

Be sure you'll check Marketta's blog Pink Polish Addict, but don't worry if you don't like pink like we do, her favorite color is also blue but she can work any color on this planet with her lovely nails. :L

Let me know what do you think about these 2 lovely pink manicure and thanks for reading! I had a lovely day behind me and I got an amaaazing package today and I can't wait to show you all the goodies I got. :i Polish is the best gift for sure. <3

XOXO,

Ivana :k

Christmas Manicure

I'm so lazy these days... Being lazy is the thing I'm really doing best.So one short post for today.

I did this mani on a Christmas Eve but I didn't like it. I stole the holy idea from Emerald Sparkled but she did better combination than me. Red was darker and my nail line wasn't visible like it's showed on picture below.

1 coat Essence Show Your Feet - Hot Red
2 coats Essence Stamp me! White on ring finger
BM14
Yes Love 287
Pink rhinestones Viva La Nails

I also won a 20$ cuopon code for BornPretty at Emerald Sparkled, I already purschase some things, can't wait to try them. This is my first giveaway I've ever won, yay. Keep them coming!

Hope you had a great Christmas!
Ivana

Essence LE Fairytale - Once Upon a Time + BM

One quick post for today. I was so in love with my first manicure with snowflakes so I decided to make another one, but this one I didn't like so much as my first one.

I used BM14 and Esence Stamp me White nail polish for stamping.

What do you think? This red is just so perfect for Christmas!

Today is my BF's 22nd birthday, so Happy Birthday dear! Although I know that you don't read my blog.

Love you!

Xoxo,
Ivana

Essence LE Into the Ocean + BM

My Snowflakes manicure is finally here. It took me so long to transfer pictures from my phone to laptop. I had it like 5 days on my nails and it was still perfect, no tip wear at all. until I took a really loong bath so it chipped and I had to took it off. But it really lasted quite long.

Like I said I added to Bubble Bubble a few snowflakes with BM14 and Essence Stamp Me White polish. It's snow here and I hate it, but I really like snowlakes on my nails.

So, what do you think? Snowflake pattern is really so cute and perfect for this snowy December. Bubble bubble is very shiny, with TC even more.

I decided to stop adding watermarks on my pictures, because I don't like it. In one of my next posts I'll present you my top 10 favorite polishes, because I don't change my manicures so often as usual. I hope you'll like it! If you have any suggestion what would you like to see on my blog, please tell me. I'm open to new ideas, because recently I lost my inspiration.

I was so bored today, so I played dominos with my mum. Do you like playing games?


Take care,
Ivana
