NOTD: Cute + scandalous = ?

I don't have a whole lot to say about this manicure, it's all there in the pictures.

אין לי כ"כ מה להגיד על המניקיור הזה, הכל נמצא בתמונות.



Polishes used:
לקים ששומשו:
Revlon- Scandalous
Glitterbunny- You Can Do It, Brucey!

What do you think, is it time for me to start a Pinterest or Instagram account? I've been staying away from them because they seem pretty redundant after all the social networks I'm already on, but I have a lot of pictures like these- pretty enough to post, but not unique enough to write about. Should I just stick them on Facbook? Keep posting them here? Tell me what you think!

מה דעתכם- הגיע זמן שאני אפתח חשבון בפינטרסט או אינסטגרם? לא התקרבתי עליהם כי הם נראו לי תמיד די מיותרים עם כל הרשתות האחרות שאני משתמשת בהן. אבל יש לי הרבה כאלה- תמונות מספיק יפות שאני רוצה להעלות אותן, אבל לא מספיק ייחודיות שיש לי מה להגיד עליהן. שאני אמשיך להעלות אותן לכאן? לפייסבוק? תגידו מה דעתכם.

NOTD: Water Marble 2.0

I used to water marble a whole lot more. For some reason, my first ever attempt at marbling came out nearly perfect, and then after that I could never quite recreate my success. Beginners luck,  perhaps? Besides, once I started getting better at other kind of art, I started feeling like marbling wasn't worth the hassle.

For the record, it totally is.

This was an interesting experiment for me, and it started by accident. I was marbling with silver and blue, and the silver was an extremely eager polish- it spread out like crazy, squashing the blue down to nothing. So I decided to break the rules of marbling- I double dipped. In some cases, I even triple dipped. And I loved the results!



It's so much easier this way, because you can afford to be sloppy and it won't ruin anything at all.

Colors used:
Silver- Revlon Sterling
Blue in marble- Cult Nails Time Traveler (which, for the record, marbles just fine, but Sterling overpowers it)
Blue on non-marbled nails- Maybelline Colorama 80

NOTD: Addicted to turquoise

Ok, there's a clear pattern in my choice of colors lately. Behold:

Yeah... as pretty as this came out, it's time for a new color scheme in my life. I haven't done anything outside of blue-green at all in the past month at least, huh? Except for a two-day stint with Essie's Smokin' Hot, which I didn't even bother photographing.

Not to say that I don't like this mani- I do! I just need to pace this color a little more.

So most of my fingers are OPI's Cuckou For This Color topped by Essie's Matte About You. I love mattes, i really need to do them more often! Accent finger is Cuckou again, but topped by a layer of Essence's Choose Me! and Revlon's Blue Mosaic. Picture is with three days of wear, although I reapplied the matte because after a day or two it wasn't as matted anymore, it looked more like a dull shine.

Funny thing, accent nails are becoming incredibly popular here lately. I've always done them, but apparently they're in fashion now because someone from the local Big Brother wore it? Weird. I don't watch Big Brother, never have, never will. But I guess it set a good trend?

I got myself a very pale grey, so i'm going to give newspaper nails another shot tonight. I've done them with sheet music before, but I'm gonna use an actual newspaper, I think :)
