Holo watercolor nails

 

For more than 30 years Herôme has been the leader in hand- and nail care.

In the Netherlands that is.

The quality of their products is very good and they are medium priced.

Herôme: "Our approach is solid research and live up to what our products promise."

They also have a wide range of gorgeous nail polish colors.

And as I'm writing this I'm asking myself why I don't have more by this brand???

 

When I was shop hopping through local stores I found a store selling some Herôme mini nail lacquers (4ml).

The lightening in that store was horrible: I had trouble seeing which color I was holding.

There were some mini bottles which looked like plain silver lacquers but when holding one really close it looked like it had some shattered holo in it.

Well...you should know by now that I'm crazy for holo's so I grabbed two (just in case it turned out to be holo), one for me and one for my "growing give away".

 

And today I'm going to show you this mini lacquer by Herôme.

Good things come from Holland :D

OMG and this is going to be in my give away as well!

 

I'm in love again :D

 

Now, I wasn't really feeling it to make a nail art today.

We finally have some Summer weather again and I just wanted to enjoy it with my hubby and kids.

I chose for something really simple and done before (but not with holo).

I got this idea from Glitter.Gloss.Garbage

I used the OPI Sheer Tints to make the watercolor effect.

Using the regular polish brushes and randomly placing the colors on the nails.

 

 

The picture doesn't even do it justice!

I want to have this nail art on for...like forever :D

 

Day 182) Nail art Herôme Cosmetics anniversary

For those who don't know; Herôme Cosmetics is a Dutch brand with outstanding nail polish and nail care products.
Today they celebrate their 31st anniversary.
And I've made them a custom nail art:

Day 150) Crackle nail polish

Blogging for a few months and never showed a crackle nail polish.
The big hype is over and it's on its return.
However, this is probably one of the easiest nail art that exists.
Today we went to an amusement park (called the Efteling).
And I'm tired and just want to go to bed.
Perfect day for a blogpost about crackle nail polish I think.

Crackle nail polish is available in many colors and from many different brands.
When you think about it, it is a brilliant concept. You paint it on, it cracks and you see the color that's underneath.
Crackle nail polish is perfect to use for the easy and fast nail art but what I especially like about it: You have to go out, but are wearing chipped nails...HELP...
NO! Just paint some crackle nail polish over it and...You're good to go!

I only own a silver crackle nail polish and I think this needs a dark background.
Yesterday I did some black nails, so I wanted something different for today.
I took my favourite colour and topcoated it matte:

W.I.C. by Herome Limited Edition Magical India - Jaipur + Miss Sporty - Check matte

When this dried, I simply applied the crackle nail polish:

I'm not really a fan. Are you?
