p2 - Pink it up! + Konad & S-he Nail Polish Corrector Pen

Like I said I upgraded Pink it up! Last week I was searching for S-he - 427 (pink holographic) in few drugstores but it was sold out everywhere. At least I found last bottle of S-he - 333. It's metallic pink polish perfect for stamping. It has frosty finishy, that's why I'll use it just for stamping. :D
I couldn't decide what pattern should I use, that's why I picked one of my fav roses pattern from m65. You can't go wrong with this pattern. :$

I'll probably have it on my nails fow whole week if it'll stay on my nails, because I really love the combo. What do you think? :h
Prettyfulz asked me how I keep polish in a "perfect" line by cuticles and here is my secret. :) I usually use angled brush but I can't find it that's why I had to buy this nail polish corrector pen. I can be very messy with applying nail polish so this is a "must have" for me. This or angled brush, anything works just perfectly. :)
I don't know which other brands except Essence have something similar like this, but I find it very helpful. Since S-he products (which are sold in DM in some European countries) are on sale now I bought it for a quite low price (less than 2€). You get also 3 back up tips when you ruin one. It looks like those neon markers with chisel tip but more pointed, it's really easy to work with.

I use it when nail polish is totally dry or as soon as I apply a nail polish and it's still wet so I don't make even bigger mess with. :i I hope this was helpful. :)

I've to wake up early and I don't want to, I'm really not morning person. :c I wish I could work at night! xo

Sweet dreams,
Ivana :k

p2 - Pink it up!

What a sunny day today, again. :e Loooooove it! :L
It's time for something bright, right? :) I was neglecting my new p2 goodies, which I got from lovely Adora Belle, because I really got so many new polishes and I always don't know what to pick next. :) But it's time for p2 now. :P
Pink it up! is a bright reddish pink creme, very opaque. You can get away with only one coat, but I wasn't careful with my application, that's why I added 2. First I thought it was more coral but after putting it on my nails I saw it's not at the coral side, because corals just don't look great on me. :D
Application is great, brush is a little wider and I like it - but it's soooo hard to capture its real color. xo I did my best but I still think it's prettier in RL (I add another photo, I think color is most accurate on 1st picture).

It's really pretty and bright color perfect for these sunny days, what do you think? :L I'll probably stamp something over this beauty to make it a little more interesting. :P

Oh, I'm on Twitter now (IvanaThinksPink), well still learning how to use it. :$ I started following some of you already, but if you'd like to follow me, please click on the picture below. :P

Happy Sunday!

I ♥ Spring

I was outside with my liltle sister Veri yesterday and we saw so many beautiful flowers on our walk that I just had to take some photos. This is my 250th post so I decided to share them with you today. :) I love Spring, Summer even more but everything wakes up in Spring, everything is soooo colorful, I just love it. :L I hope you'll like these pictures. :$

Forsythia
Daiseis
Crocus
English Primroses, viola

Right before we went home we ate pizza ice cream again. I already showed you once I think, but here it is one more time again. It's sooooooo delicious. :L I can't wait till they get strawberries, then it's even more delicious. :$

I have such a bad today with headache but after spending some time on sun I was totally in better mood! :)

Enjoy your weekend!

Ombre Holo Manicure

Woooohooo, today was my first day at "job" and it was great. They're all super kind and sweet, so it was a really great day today. :) But I'm sooo tired, I didn't sleep long. I had lectures yesterday, yes professor showed up :D , so I got home very late. xo When I checked and did everything I had to, it was almost morning. :D But it's weeeeeekeeend, so I'll catch up that lost sleep. :D Some already right after I post this... :P

Today is time for ombre manicure. :e I wasn't even planning doing it, but it looks like an Ombre, right? :) I used all Catherine Arleys I have and here it is. :D

From pinkie to pointer:

Sun
Shade

You can see that 666 and 675 have strongest holographic effect, so bad I didn't took more pictures, that's why I have just one on the sun. :D I'm so happy to have them all. :L Which one is your favorite?

I wish you all a great and relaxing weekend! :h

Xoxo,

Funky Dunkey with a Broken Hearted Treasure

I'm trying not to change my manicure so often because my pointer is still peeling a bit and I still don't want to shorten them all. :D I hope it'll grow out soon so I could fill them down little by little and have strong nails.  :$ I'm using Nail Tek II Intensive Therapy at the moment, I'll probably make a post about this therapy but later. Now it's too quick to say anything. :)

I wanted to try one of my crackles so I picked Broken Hearted and layered it over Funky Dunky with Hidden Treasure. :L Broken Hearted dries matte so I added one coat of Nail Tek to have shiny nails.

Broken Hearted dries extremly fast so you have to be quick with application. I wasn't even careful how I applied thic crackle - just be sure you have enough polish on the brush and apply it on nail quickly. And then the magic happens. :i

I really love this effect and combination with flakies. :L You can expect lots of crackled manicure in the future. :e

Tommorow I've lectures again and I hope that profesor will show up this time. :i Or..... :brow

Nighty night,
