moYou Stamping Plates Review

Hey folks!

So this will be a huge MEGA GIGA combined post by Dani and me, and here we will show you - as announced on Facebook - our new arrivals: moYou London Stamping plates!!

I've seen a stamping design by The Nailasaurus, and so I noticed the brand moYou from London. Later on, I saw that many of the RedditLaqueristas also going crazy about those stamping plates. I took a look at the homepage and immediately called Dani stating that we need this!!! Finally, we made it and ordered a huge package of plates - still having not all of those we want, lol!

My contribution for #LLreinvention

Hey folks and a warm "Servus" from Vienna,

since I am a very constant reader of The Nailasaurus, I noticed she took part in the 31 Day Challange, where you post a new mani every day for 31 days to a specific topic. Since this would be simply unable for me, I was very excited when she posted from an initiative called The Lacquer Legion, a monthly challenge - which is much easier to achieve for me.

The Theme for January '14 was "reinvention". I've read it and had no idea how to interpret this. Then I came up with an "artist" kind of view on this theme. Here is the result!

Low-Budget Comparison: essie - Stroke Of Brilliance VS. catrice - I'm Dynamite

Hey guys! :)

Today I'll be doing a comparison between essie - Stroke Of Brilliance and catrice - I'm Dynamite.

After I bought Stroke Of Brilliance it come to me that I have a very similar polish at home which was I'm Dynamite from catrice. 
So I wanted to compare them to see if there is any difference.

Galaxy nails - practice for physics!

Hey folks and a warm "Servus" from Vienna,

since Dani announced Mad Mani Monday, I have to share with you my todays mani which made me very mad when creating it!

For a friend of mine (she studies technical physics at Technical University here in Vienna) I promised to do her nails for next weeks TU ball. So what is closer to physics than our Galaxy - on the nails? Since I did galaxy nails only one time before, I decided I definitely need practice! ;)

Mad Monday Manicure - "practice makes perfect!" (with a little comparison)

Hey guys!

Today I looked through my old manicures and I stumbled over a picture from 2012, when I just started with nail art.
Now I wanted to see if my skills have improved in the past two years.

I wanted to duplicate this cherry blossom nail art:













  
(this is from 2012)




So I tried to grab a mint polish, but that wasn't easy at all...

Low-Budget Comparison: Chanel & Claire's

Hey Ladies (and Gentlemen)!

So this is my first post and I was thinking why not post a low-budget version of Chanels BEL-ARGUS? Because not everybody can afford chanels beautiful polishes and I just found, not an exactly dupe, but it is very similar.
So let the swatching begin! :)


Here is a side to side comparison of the color in the bottle. Doesn't it look pretty identical?
