Hey Beauties!
If you saw my last nail art you saw this beautiful classic red nail polish from Maybelline. I wanted to make a separate post about this shade. I really like the classic red nail polishes and funny enough don't have more then one of these shades. You know my love for Maybelline nail polishes and when I saw this classic, I had to get it.
Its a beautiful classic red, with a more orange undertone. Perfect for this holiday season and anyone who loves classics.
The nail polish is pretty thin and one coat can still show through some of the nail. Two coats should be enough, but don't expect crazy creamy and pigmented nails. I think that is exactly the beauty of Maybelline's nail polishes. They're very thin in consistency, which makes them pretty long lasting. And I love long lasting nail polishes.
For the price of 2 something € you get 7 ml of product. Totally worth it.
Christmas tree nails
23 Dec 2013
Hey Beauties!
So Christmas is almost here :). This year I tried to create an abstract Christmas tree. You decide if I got it right or wrong ;).
For this nail art I used red nail polish (Maybelline Colorama 150), emerald green (Essence Multi Dimension in 53 All Access), gold (Max Factor Max Effect-don't know the color, ) sparkly gold and red (Essence Colour and Go in 121 Gold Fever) and top coat (Essie Good to Go).
I painted my nails red. Then I used emerald green nail polish to create a long wavy line to represent the tree. Going from the widest curve to the narrowest. Curves can be tricky to create on the nails, but slowly that goes as well. Then I took gold nail polish and made a few dots to represent the ornaments. After that I took gold and red glitter nail polish and went over the whole tree. To kinda make it look sparkly. This should represent all the lights and reflections. Finished with top coat. Very simple ;).

DIY: Christmas tree ornaments (part 2)
21 Dec 2013
Hey Beauties!
As promised, here is my part two of the Christmas tree ornaments DIY. You can see my first part of DIY here. Finally no more classes - yeeey :). My Christmas mood is on and here is one more idea on how to make your tree ornaments. I already hung up mine on my mini Christmas tree :).
Beads ornament
I worked again with those transparent balls that can be taken apart in half. First one is very simple. I chose three different colored beads and heart pendants, which I had laying around from my DIY chandelier project.
I just filled them in one half and put both halfs together.
I also used some leftover decorative ribbon and made a knot. Then I also made a little bow and tight the end so I can hang it on the tree. As I said, very simple this one, but I think pretty chic :).
I also added a little pine cone and some more of this plant.
Then I placed it in the half of the ball and measured where I need to put the glue. I used hot glue gun again and attached it to the first half of the ball.
Then I just added a bit of my fake snow, which I used in the first part of this DIY. I also put the snow in the other half and then I just put them together.
I added white decorative ribbon and made a bow on top. Also pretty simple, right?
That's the end of my Christmas tree ornaments DIY. Here you can also see my mini Christmas tree, which is in my room. I make it the same every year: red and gold ornaments and white lights. This year I added my DIY ornaments as well :).

Santa Clause in the woods ornament
For this one I used a little figure of Santa Clause, which was originally a part of a little snow globe, but it broke. I still had Santa Clause in my storage and used it for this ornament. I took some evergreen plant from our backyard and glued it around him with hot glue gun.
I also added a little pine cone and some more of this plant.
Then I placed it in the half of the ball and measured where I need to put the glue. I used hot glue gun again and attached it to the first half of the ball.
