Itsy Bitsy Spider....

♥♥♥

Sorry, I couldn't resist.
Because October is Halloween month I was up for something a bit more halloweeny. So this is what I came up with, super simple, but I love.
Radium was a great choice, in my opinion, because it has kind of a weird look to it.
Update: I wrote this a couple of weeks ago, so I'm sorry for the late Halloween post!

New York, I Love You ♥

♥♥♥

Sorry for being AWOL, but I've been so tired lately :S My walks with Nahla have become longer, everyday I walk a little bit more, and yesterday I walked through Copacabana, all of it, until Leme... We walked for 12lm, 7 miles, and it felt good when it was happening, but not after lol



A few days ago I put New York on, a beautiful blue and pearly polish. Formula was fantastic, no trouble at all! Plus one coat of Heartbreaker, it gave my nails a twist!







Looks quite incredible, right?

I'm On A Zebra Mood...

♥♥♥

Really! haha As you can see, I'm really pimping my Carbono mani. I layered Menta Fresca, and then I stamped over it with black polish, plate is Konad M-57.
Had no issue stamping over it, the black worked great, and it looks freaking perfect!! ♥




To be perfectly honest, I have every intention to keep this on for at least 3 days, it looks that good!



I really do love how this turned out, hope you do too!

Colorama Carbono

♥♥♥

First of all, have I told you I went to the vet with Nahla yesterday and her vet took the stitches, and she can finally go for walks! So I took her for walk 3 times today, she had a LOT of fun, played a lot with her doggy friends, and ran a lot, with me running with her LOL
To my nails. I told you on the Rock post I was decided to wear Carbono, I found it, and here it is!
I found out something new about it, it has a secret shimmer, which I knew nothing about until just yesterday, and I've had this polish for 3-4 years now.
Carbono has a petroleum blue thing going on, VERY dark petroleum blue, and it goes more to the dark grey side than to black, formula was still incredible after all this time,

How About Some Fresh Mint?

♥♥♥

Menta Fresca means Fresh Mint in Enlglish btw. Cora Menta Fresca is fabulous, no joke! I wore it before, but with the old lamp I just couldn't capture it properly... This is a duochrome polish, blue and purple. It's a top coat, despite the green base, and it's perfection. I'll be making a post on the base color tomorrow, but I'm so stunned by this MF that I had to post it already!!!








It's perfection, right?!
I think this polish can only be purchased on Brazil, Cora is a hard brand to find, I only have two...

Colorama Rock And New Lamp ♥

♥♥♥

If you follow me on facebook, you already know I bought a new lamp. My old one was falling apart, no joke. It was old, 6 years I think. I went to the light store to buy a new bulb for my lava lamp, which I couldn't because it's a US model, and it's totally different from the Brazilian one, but there's a store nearby, which I'll be going soon. While I was at the store, I asked about the desk lamps, I already had one in mind, different from my old one, I ended up getting it cause it was cheap and looks good. I got home, put a bulb on it, turned it on and almost blinded myself. It's very very good, and I'm supper happy with it.!! It looks like this one but it's white, and I'm using a different bulb, a better one.
To my nails, this morning I painted my nails with a simple black polish, plain black, but Nahla messed it up lol I went out for lunch with friends today, left the house at 11AM, didn't get home until 6, and ate from 1PM till 4PM, we ate Japanese food, and we ate a LOT! When I got home I had to change my polish, I was determined to wear Carbono, also from Colorama, but I came across Rock, and decided that was i!!
Rock is madly pigmented, and it's a one coater, but I used two SUPER thin coats, 2 were needed. Rock is a black polish with this greenish metallic shimmer, GORGEOUS. It's super shinny, but I needed it to dry extra fast, so as usual, I added Seche Vite.
I wanted to post 6 pictures, including macro shot, couldn't pick just 5 pictures, picked 7, and with macro plus an almost macro I ended up with 9!!!










The green metallic shimmer makes it so incredible pretty ♥
