Review Fashion accesoires by Onufoot.com

Hi there!

Today i'm here with something different. This post is not nail related, but actually more fashion related. Fun too, right?
I was contacted by the website Onufoot.com if i wanted to review some items for them. Now i have done reviews, but only nail related. When i checked out their website, it took me some day's to think if i wanted this...and would my viewers, followers be also interested in looking at this? I thought yes! Onufoot.com is a website with replica's from many familiair big (expensive) brands. Who doesn't want a Louis Vutton purse, or Gucci sunglasses? I can hear you think, "of course i want it, but i can't afford it!" I totally agree! I can't afford it either. Maybe this website is the perfect solution. Replica's!!
They send me some items, and i must say, i'm very impressed by the quality. I couldn't find any mistakes on the items i got. They just look awesome. The prices are in my opinon fair too.
These are the items they send me.


A "Michael Kors" purse and wallet and "Gucci "sunglasses! I love them all!

To take a better look at them, and get more info you can see the video i did about these items.
 
 
You can find the items on these websites:

Black french tip with flower and studs

Hi there!

I just LOVE to do flower nail art designs. I think they are elegant, girly, beautiful, sweet.....do i need to continue? I think you get the point :) Flowers need to be bright, but this time i have chosen a dark background color. I think the flowers really pop . My friend Meliney send me some nice supplies to work with and to give away, how cool is that! She has her own webshop where she sells nail art supplies, stamping plates/polishes, brushes and a lot more.
She send me some detailbrushes, a wheel with different studs, a rhinestone picker pencil and some stickers.
This is the design i made with all the supplies (except for the stickers, i haven't used them)




 
 
At this moment i'm having the giveaway on my channel. I'm giving away the things i've used for my nail art design. Feel free to participate :)
 
Thank you and untill next time :)

French manicure with flower (Essence " A lovely secret")

Hi there!

Where is the sun? Where is the spring? Where is the summer? I want it, and i want it NOW! I'm sorry for my little rant, but i'm so fed up with the cold and everything. They even say we can expect snow this upcomming weekend :( Snow can be fun, when there is like 20 cm orso, but not that bit of wet snow, what makes a mess...

Because i needed something bright, and happy i made this flower design. Someone even told me they look a bit like hibiscus flowers.... I don't care if it's winter, christmas, easter or whatever, i always love to paint flowers on my nails!

For my french manicure i used Essence "A lovely secret'. It's a light purple polish. Although i'm not really a purple fan, i do love this one. I think i have it for ages, and never used it....*shame on me*...
I painted the flowers with acrylic paints by Jo Sonja. These paints have the perfect texture and are highly pigmented. I finished with Seche Vite topcoat. It's the best topcoat i've tried so far.
Of course i also made a tutorial on YouTube how i did this design. If you want to see it, click HERE





What do you think of this design? Do you like it?
Thanks for your interest!
Untill next time!

Take care, Camilla

Catrice "Blue Cara Ciao"

Hello!

Animal print designs, in my opinion, always ROCK! You can never go wrong with animal print, leopard, zebra, tiger, it doesn't matter! I usually make tutorials on YouTube of every nail design i make, but leopard and zebra/tiger is done so often, they don't need a tutorial explaining how to do that.
With the leopard design i prefer the "original" colors, meaning with brown. This time i decided to try out a new color i recently bought from Catrice, called "Blue Cara Ciao". It's a very pretty creamy blue. I love Catrice polishes! The quality is so good and they don't cost much.
This is the design, clean and simple, hope you like it! Until next time :) Take care, Camilla

My bakings

Hello there,

I recently discovered that besides i love doing nail art, i love baking. The fun part about baking for me is to surprise people with something beautiful you made. People seem to enjoy self made things more then just a gift from a shop. I never would have thought i could make fun cakes and cupcakes like this, but it isn't to hard.
I made a little slideshow video, just to show what i've done in the last couple of weeks. I hope you will like it :-)

European championship nails!

It's time!
The European football championship started last night! I'm so excited! I normally don't really follow football matches (althought i've played football a few years myself) But when it comes to the european or world championship i can't hold myself and i want to see every match which will be played!
The Netherlands start against Denmark, then Germany and Portugal. They seem to be favorite this year. I don't know if that's good though, maybe it can cause much pressure to the guys..
But, we'll see, i'm already getting nerveus for tonight LOL
To support my country i've made these nails...



These are really easy to do. I've started with a basecoat (of course). Then i've added 2 coats of Rimmels french manicure pink. With a striper brush and acrylic paint i started painting the lines with the colors of our flag. Red, white and blue. When this is dry use a silver (or gold would fit as well) glitter polish in between the lines.
For the football i actually wanted to make my own waterdecals. But when i wanted to print the image, my printer broke down and wasn't working anymore. Bummer. So, i decided to paint them myself.
I hope you like this simple but fun supporters design :)
I will be watching tonight, what about you??

Take care,
Camilla

DIY: Silicone molds for acrylic/clay/ cupcake decoration

Hello lovely's!

It's been a while i've wrote something here, but i've been so busy with my YT channel.
Today i want to share a video with you guys. A while ago, Ilona, from Sillis send me some earring settings for reviewing purposes. When i was looking at their site again (http://www.sillis.nl) i saw something which looked awesome to me. Silicones to make your own molds. These molds you will make yourself can be used for making flatbacks for jewelry, scrapbooking, acrylics (to make a 3D nailart design), cupcake decorations and many more! She send me some to make my own molds, and it's soooooo awesome! It's really easy to do. You will get 2 different "silicones". One is white and the other is green. You have to take equal parts and mix them together untill the color is smoothly and opaque. Don't use to much in once, if you need more you can always mix some again. Then take the amount you need for your flatback (sillis will send some with the silicone, you can even choose what style you'd like to receive) Push in your flatback, leave it for about 2 to 3 hours. Take it out, and your mold is ready to use. If you want to use it for food purposes, bake it in de oven at 200 degrees for about 4 hours. Then put it in the dishwasher at the hottest menu, and they are ready!
Take a look at my video how it's used to be done!
I hope you like it!
Don't forget to check out Sillis facebookpage (and mine ;-) )
Their english website is: http://www.sillicreations.com





Thank you and take care!!

Sunbeams

Hi Lovely's!

So i had an epic fail with my laptop and camera!
I, of course, filmed the whole process of creating my sunbeam nails. I wanted to place it on my laptop, but he didn't recognise the disc. Checking on my camera again.....i'm missing a whole part of the film! Grrrrrr! I can get soooo angry when that happens!!
Anyway, i still wanted to share this with you guys, so i made a picture slideshow. (you can watch the tutorial here) Before i'll let you know how i did it, let me show you the result :)



If you want to see how i did this, read more after the jump...

Essie "Marabou"

Hello you all!

Since i started to read a few blogs with swatches i came across some bloggers who showed a polish of Essie. Most of them were very possitive about this brand. They find the colors opaque, smooth applying, just a "perfect" polish. Since i don't know where to buy Essie in the stores in The Netherlands i decided to ask my friend Jae from the USA to send me an Essie in our swap. I saw this beautiful color "Marabou". It's a pink polish with a subtle coral teint in it in my opinion. I'd asked her to send me that one in particulair and she did. Yay!!
Am i just as excited as the girls who's blogs i've read?


Uhhmm, no!
Let's start with the possitive thing. The color is BEAUTIFUL! I really love it!
When i started applying the first thing i saw the polish was quite thin. I prefer a bit thicker substance. The brush was pretty small which i didn't like much either. The first coat was very stricky, and the second was too. Eventually i needed 3 coats and some of my nails still weren't opaque. Well, just take a look at the pictures...




You can see my pointer finger has some "clear" spots after 3 coats.
Again....the color i like very much ♥

I thought this is the perfect color to make an elegant spring design with.
What do you think of this design?






Thank you for your time!
Don't forget to check out the tutorial here!

Untill soon!! xoxo

Catrice "Meet me at coral island" and Catrice "Million dollar baby"

Hi there!

Today i want to share 2 catrice polishes with you. Well, one is a nailpolish and the other is a effect topcoat from the "Million styles" edition. "Meet me at coral island" i already had for a few days, but i wanted to use it at the right moment. It's such a bright color, perfect for summer! I think....no, i know it would look awesome on your toes!! I have a nailartwheel, and i swatched it on there. When i bought the effect topcoat 2 days ago, i layered it over this color and it looked so pretty! I love glitter, but normally i don't buy topcoats with such big glitters in it, so i was having some doubts if i would buy it. I'm so glad i did, because i really love this one!
This is what they look like together!



So, Catrice "Meet me at coral island" and Catrice "Million dollar baby" from the Million Styles collection. Gorgeous, don't you think?

This is what the color looks like without the awesome glitters.




It's pretty hard to get the real beautiful, bright, coral color on camera. Well...you know what...you just have to go out and buy yourself this gorgeus color so you can see it in real life ;-)

Thank you for your time, and
i talk to you guys soon!!

China Glaze Dance Baby and Sally Hansen Glass slipper

Hello dear readers,

Last week i received a package from my dear friend Jae (Jaemarie2008). She is one of my sweetest friends from YouTube. Besides the fact that she makes wonderfull nailart, she is a wonderfull person! We just did our 2nd swap. This time we knew what we wanted, so we tried to get all the stuff we askes from eachother. And of course we both added some surprises! I've asked, among other things, China Glaze "Dance Baby". I had seen some swatches on a few blogs from the Electropop collection, and i really wanted this one (and also Aquadelic). Thank god she could get her hands on this pretty, precious polish! I couldn't wait to wear it!




When i was done staring at this awesome color, i went on with looking what great stuff she'd send more. Then i found out she had send me Glass Slipper from Sally Hansen. I haven't seen this one before, but i am madly in love with it. The first thing that came to me was that it must look great on Dance Baby. It would give the perfect subtle spark to this color. And i was right! When i was outside in the sun (ok, a little bit of sun) it looked AWESOME!
I know...the pictures don't really show that, but i've tried...



Imagine what these flakies will look like on a very dark color? Dark blue, black.....i bet it would be an eyecatcher!!

Thank you for your time!

Essence "A walk in the park" and "Stop for an icecream"

Hi there!

Since a few weeks Essence have some new polishes in their assortment. The 3 -way polish! A few months ago they had a limited edition on the 3- way polishes and they were great. I got 2 at that moment. I recently bought another one. It seemed like one of the polishes were flakies. Now i know they aren't, LOL. But hey, i still like it. The green color is gorgeous without adding the sparkles (i think it looks even better without the sparkles) It's called A walk in the park. The glitter topcoat is called Stop for an icecream.
I applied 2 coats, which went smooth, and one coat of glitter. No base and topcoat on this one.
Well...i let you see for yourself....





I don't know about this glitter coat, what do you think?

Half one stroke flower

Hi guys!

I'm soooo jealous of the people who can do a perfect one stroke flower. Well, jealous may be not the right word, but i do envy them a lot! I wish i could do that, but...i'll keep practicing.
So last week i made my first franken, a pink holographic polish, which you can find HERE , but i wanted to make a nailart design on top. I decided to give my one stroke another try! I thought i'd go for a pink and blue combo, and you know what, it turned out pretty nice if i may say so myself. Well, i let you judge for yourself....




And? What do you think? What i used is my franken holo polish as my basecolor. I used a pink acrylic paint from Folkart and a blue i bought at a local DIY shop (Kwantum). I also used some big glitters which i loveee so much! Topcoat: Seche Vite. To see the step by step video click HERE

Ok, so for a comparison to see  if my one stroke skills got any better, i have a picture of my first one stroke flower...



I think i got a bit better, but i know it's still far from perfect.

Thanks for stopping by!

My first franken!!

Hi there!

I made my first franken! Yay!!
I don't know why i haven't done this before, it was FUN!
I'm always complaining that i don't have any holographic polishes, now that's not something which can't be done anything about, i know that. I can order them online, but i don't like to buy stuff from the internet. I'm always afraid something will go wrong, or i won't receive it. Besides that, i always thinks it's a waste of my money to spend much for the shipping.
Anyway!!!!! A few weeks, maybe months ago my sweet friend Jae from YouTube send me some holographic glitters! OMG, they look so awesome, but i was so afraid to use them LOL. I know that sounds dumb silly! So, yesterday i had them in my hands again, and i thought, what the heck, let's give it a try. And you know what? It turned out absolutely gorgeous! Now, there wasn't any sun to pick up the gorgeous rainbows in this holo, but this is what it turned out in the bottle.



I started with filling the bottle for about 3/4 with clear polish by Sally Hansen. Then i added the holographic glitters and gave it a good shake! When you want to use it right away, don't shake the bottle, but role it in your hand. Shaking causes bubbles. I was not going to use it that day, so i shaked! After that i added a few drops of Catrice "The pinky and the brain", which is a very vibrant pink and Mavala "Wichita", which is a very soft/sheer pink. I gave it another shake and that's it!

I made another polish, as my basecolor for this holo.
I found a bottle of Orly Ridgefiller which was half full. I added some clear polish to this bottle, a few drops of Catrice "The pinky and the brain" and a few drops of Catrice "Meet me at coral island". That gave me a perfect soft pink for my basecolor.



This is what they look like together on my nails...

Inside light


The pictures are absolutely not showing the beauty of this polish. But....most of you know what a holo looks like, so you can understand i love this! I did make another one, with turkoise, woohooo.... I will show that next time!

By the way, my new polishes need a name, any idea's?

Thank you for stopping by!
