Whats on my nails/ Hvað er á neglunum mínum (#2)

I have been wearing two of the nail polishes that I bought in London. The beautiful pastel colors fit with the summer mood right now and if I had a tan then the colors would make you look more tanner. On my pale skin the colors stand out in a different but good way.

I like painting my nails with one finger with a different color I feel gives it something extra, it's mostly on the ring finger or the index finger but sometimes the pinky finger.

Icelandic:
Ég hef verið að nota tvö af naglalökkunum sem að ég keypti í London. Fallegu pastel litina passa við sumar fílinginn núna og ef ég hafði tan þá mundu litirnir láta þig meira tan. Á minni ljóstu húð standa litirnir út á öðruvísi en á flottan hátt. 

Mér líkar við að mála neglurnar með einum fingri með öðrum lit mér finnst það gefa eitthvað extra, það er oftast á hring fingri eða vísi fingri en stumdum á litla fingri.

Whats on my nails/ Hvað er á neglunum mínum (#1)

Today I am wearing a dark lilac nail polish on my nails and it goes well with my pale skin.I have had this colour for I think two years now and I wore this twice or so. It fits the weather here right now which is cloudy and grey sky.

Icelandic:
Í dag er ég með dökkt lilac naglalakk á nöglunum mínum og það fer vel með ljósu húðinni minni. Ég hef átt þennan lit ég held í tvö ár núna og hef notað það tvisvar eða svo. Þær passa veðrinu akkurat núna sem að er skýjað og grár himinn.

Nail polish setup (Organizes)(Nails)

I keep my nail polishes on a shelf in a corner of my room and other nail stuff below it. the self I have is made out of wood and is made by my dad. When I got it it I probable had half of want I have now but it filled up quickly because I had the space for then. Now I have hardly space for anymore and I keep some polishes under the shelf because they don´t fit. That said, I still love my ,,nail corner,, so much. I don´t need so many things but hey these are the things I spend my money on.  I have a mix of high-end and drugstore nail polishes, some good and some bad.

Furry nails?

There are alot of nail trends out there like, cracked polish, sandy finished nails and etc. but when I was in London in August I saw nail products that could make you nails have a ''furry'' texture. I wanted to at least try out this kind of product, so when I saw a nail pack complete with nail polish, the furry affect and flower decorations in a Topshop store I went to I decided to buy it. Now a little more then a month later I am trying this out. I did only one nail to see how it would be like and how long it would last before I will try it on all of my nails. 

The photo is a little blurry but you can still see the texture :)

Nails of the week (week 8)

This week I did my nails in a pink, silver and with black. I don't know how this look came up but when I started thinking about a design this came in to my head. I used a light pink on my index finger to mix up the design but the color smudged a little, because it wasn't drying like the other polish, that's why that finger looks weird on the photo.

What I used

From the left:Chanel nail polish(529 Graphite) ,Ciaté nail polish (strawberry milkshake),depend (nr 034),L.A.colors Art deco (black)

Base&top coat 

How I did it 

1. Start of with clear nail with no nail polish on.

2. Put on a base coat to protect the nails.

3. Put two coats of the pink polish (the light or the darker one) and let dry. 

4. Take the black stripe polish and start making a triangle shape at the base of the nail and let it narrow down, and let dry.

5. Fill it in with black and let dry.

6.  Take the silver glitter polish and line the outline of the triangle and let dry. 

7. Finish of by putting on a top coat to seal in the design and let dry.
