Impala Saia Justa and Hits Hefesto ♥

♥♥♥

Remember I told you in this post that Saia Justa was one of my 2 favorites from the swatches on the nail wheel? Well, I just had to put it on. I also told you I wasn't changing my polish anytime soon, but yesterday I went for a walk at the beach with Nahla, and for the first time EVER I let her loose, without her leash. I was scared as hell, but everything worked out great, she had a great time, and so did I. She ran, she played with a lot of other dogs, and she went in the ocean, but because I was also playing with her, throwing her ball so she would catch, and getting in the ocean myself, I had some tip wear. I had to give her a bath, and then take a shower myself. As much as I was loving my nails, I don't like tip wear, it was minor, but I decided to take it off. 


Saia Justa's formula was great, no complains at all. It's a very bright and summery color, it's winter here, but who cares?! ♥

Tiffany Blue & Holographic ♥

♥♥

How are you doing?
Yesterday I saw this post from Hazel, and felt in love, I had to try to 'recreate' it. Well, not really recreate it, I love Tiffany blue, and my For Audrey from China Glaze is my baby, all I had to do was layer a holographic top coat over it, so I would get the holo effect and not loose the polish color.
This combo is great, and because Hefesto is a top coat, can't be worn on it's own, you get a wide range of colors to play with, I'll have to try some other colors later.
It had been a while since I didn't smudge my nails, or went to sleep with them still a bit wet and getting my sheets marked on the polish. I took a little nap last night, and when I woke up it was still completely smooth.

Bonus Pictures: 12 different colors on a nail wheel layered with Hefesto. I loved the colors I picked to show you that you can layer it over any color. My two favorites were Saia Justa and Radium.
The last picture is on the sun.








BONUS:

1- Illamasqua Radium; 2- Illamasqua Rampage; 3- Illamasqua Stance; 4- Catrice Sir! Yes, Sir!; 5- Revlon Posh.

6- OPI From A To Zurich; 7- Impala Saia Justa; 8- Illamasqua Force; 9- Risquè Cenário Perfeito; 10- Colorama Quadrado Azul.
In the sun.

Holographic Gradient - Silver & Blue ♥

♥♥

Nahla turned 5 months today, and she just gets cuter and cuter everyday.
She's growing very fast. She loves to go on walks, and she gets very agitated, she wants to play with everyone, and every dog, but some are a bit too small and she is not very gentle lol So she has more fun playing with bigger dogs, like Labrador or Golden Retriever. There are a lot of those two in Rio btw.
There's this one dog we met about a week ago, Vicky, Nahla looks just like her, and could be her daughter. Vicky even has the white tips on her paws, but in all of them, Nahla has in three.
My iPhone got stolen last week, so I'll be showing less pictures of Nahla, I need to get a new iPhone ASAP!



Now to my nails :)
How is everyone doing tonight?
Last night I was going through my stash and got a glimpse of my Hits No Olimpo collection. I went through it and had the brilliant idea of making a gradient. At first I picked Afrodite to go with Artemis, but decided to go with Apolo cause it's darker, but when I started the gradient Apolo was actually quite light.
One super thin coat of top coat was more than enough.
I had to adjust the color on photoshop to be color accurate :)

Kleancolor Holos Gradient (♥)

♥♥

How is everyone doing today? :)
I have done a Kleancolor Holos gradient before, but instead of using orange, I used pink the last time. And my cuticles looked AWFUL last time....
I started with two coats of Revlon Cloud, a light gray, formula was fantastic.
The Kleancolors I used were Holo Blue, Green and Orange.
I love the way these holos blend together, it's like I have a blue/green/orange gradient with glitter over it, and I think that's what I love the most about it. This time I used scotch tape around my finger so clean up would be easier. SPONGED THREE TIMES!
The gradient didn't get bubbly like the gradients I usually make with cream or shimmery polishes, so a thin top coat like my OPI one was enough.

Feel free to post your gradients in the comment area, I'd love to see it :)

NOTD: La Femme Delicada

Hey sweeties ♥

Today I have a holo to show you. It was super sunny today, so it was the perfect day for a holo polish.
Delicada is a cute light pink holo, quite common actually, but it's still very pretty, and the holo effect is incredible, and the top coat made no difference on it :)
I used two coats of Delicada, and one coat of Seche Vite.








It's freaking incredible, right? :D
Love,

Rivka Samantha

Hey there ♥

Let's star with a picture of Nahla and me:


Now that we're done with the cuteness of the day, let's get to the polish.
Rivka Samantha is a gorgeous polish, a dark blue holo. My pictures don't really show the holo effect, but it's still gorgeous.
Two coats, and one coat of Seche.








I love this polish, and I've worn SO many times.
Love,

Jade Vermelho Surreal

Hello my dears ♥

Jade holo week continues. And today's holo is a red one.
Two coats of Vermelho Surreal and one of Seche Vite.
Like I said before, my camera couldn't capture the holo effect, so I took one picture with my iPhone.





This is quite the amazing red, right? :D
Love,
