Nail Look: Ombre Pink With Water Decals

Hey guys! Yes, I'm wearing Ombre nails again. How can I not? They look so pretty, they're so much fun, and this gorgeous weather we've been having just screams 'Ombre'. This nail look is simple to create, yet is guaranteed to draw attention. After a few months of having problems with my nails (they got so short), I finally got them to grow longer (thanks Eveline 8in1), so I'm enjoying my long nails again.

Products used:

Thumb: L'oreal no. 603 (old)

Second: Catrice, 360 Raspberry Fields Forever (old)

Middle: Essence (old colour&go collection)

Ring: essence, colour & go, no.106, Free Hugs

Small: essence, stampy polish, 001 White

Water Decals: Born pretty, 1 Sheet Classical Flower Vine Pattern Nail Art Water Decals Transfers Sticker #H013 (CLICK HERE to purchase this product)

My opinion: I love water decals, they're so easy to use and you can create an amazing look within seconds. I've found that I enjoy black water decals the most, because you can combine them with any nail polish shade, and they go great with everything. Also your nail art won't look over-done or like it's too much. It's great to put water decals while wearing Ombre nails because it really ties the whole look together. What can I say, I adore this water decals design!

This Ombre look is a similar version of a nail look I did before, you can find it HERE. So, are you over Ombre, or are you still loving it, like I am? Thanks for stopping by, don't forget to follow me, and have a great day!

Love, J.

Cat Water Decals For My Cat

Hello everyone! I bring to you a nail look featuring the cutest ever water decals. You know I love my cat (you can see him on my Instagram page), and this look is for him, since he had his birthday recently. He's a big boy already.

Base: essence, studio nails, XXL nail thickener - It's ok, nothing special.

Nude polish: Deborah Milano, Pret A Porter, no.46, Get The Nude Look - I was surprised at how bad the texture of this polish was, compared to any other polish I have from this collection. It's very thick and gives uneven coverage. Not their best polish. The shade is fine though, maybe a little too bright for me.

Gold top coat: essence, Metal Glam LE, 'Steel-ing The Scene' - A little tricky to use, but it looks stunning.

Sealing top coat: essence, studio nails, better than gel nails, top sealer - Their top coats are the best, they dry really fast, provide protection for my nail art and give my nails a great shine.

Water decals: Born Pretty, Nail Art Water Decals Transfers Sticker Mini Black Cat Pattern #BLE1498 - Yeah, these are freaking adorable. I've said it many times, I prefer water decals over stamping because it's much easier to do. And these are so cute, and I'll definitely take them out for Halloween as well.

You can buy this product HERE, and make sure you check out BornPretty's website HERE (make sure you use the 10% off coupon at the bottom of this post).

So that's it for today's post. Are you a fan of water decals as well? Are you a proud cat owner? My cat isn't all black, but I always thought black cats were the prettiest, and they're not scary at all (of course).

Thanks for stopping by, 

Love, J.

Red Polish, Gold Water Decals

Hello guys! Today's nail look was so much fun to wear. I love this dark red polish shade, it's perfect for autumn. The water decals look gorgeous in real life, and they're very durable. I've worn them before and love them! Sadly, I haven't snapped too many good photos when I wore this look. Nevertheless, I decided to post it anyways.

Products used:

Base coat: essence, studio nails, 24/7 nail base: I'm not really a fan of this base, though I like how this looks by itself - it's a sheer matte shade.

Polish: L'Oreal, Resist&Shine, no.603: This polish might be the reason why I am not in the mood to purchase any new L'Oreal polishes. You see, the shade has good pigmentation and texture, but the polish leaves red lines on everything you touch. Even 4 days later, when you know it's dry! Like, if you pull your nail over paper, cardboard or plastic, you're left with long red lines (like lines from coloring pens) that will not wash off. Not cool L'Oreal, not cool.

Top coat: essence, studio nails, better than gel nails, top sealer, high gloss: a great top coat

Thumb: smart girls get more, no.117: I love their glitters, however, it's difficult to apply a thicker layer. Still, it's very sparkly and dries very fast.

Pointer&Pinky: essence colour&go, 67 Make It Golden: an oldie but a goodie. Too bad this is no longer available. It's by far my favorite glitter top coat.

Water decals: N.NAIL Golden Dots And Stars Pattern Nail Water Decals [NNAIL-WDHHC046-Gold] from KKCenterHk: a perfect product! Durable, easy to use and look amazing. 10/10

So, are you feeling these golden water decals? Do you like gold on your nails? Ugh, today I have to clean my room and rearrange all my make up. Wish me luck LOL. Until the next post, follow me on FB, Twitter or bloglovin'.

Pink Nails, Pink Roses

Hello lovely people and happy Thor's day! This look is a simple one: a hot pink nail polish combined with water decals (so it's not totally boring). Products used:

Essence, Colour&go nail polish, no.106 'Free Hugs': In the bottle this polish looks like a gentle shade of pink, but it's not - it's very hot pink, especially in direct sunlight. I use 2 or 3 coats for full coverage, but this polish has a very watery texture, so it will emphasize the lines on your nails. Even though the color coverage is uneven because of the watery texture, the nail polish is fast drying.

Water decals: KKCenterHk, N.NAIL Pink Rose Flower Nail Water Decals [NNAIL-WDHHG103]

I love this product, and I've already reviewed it, you can read more HERE and you can buy it HERE.

Well, that's it for today's short post. Do you wear hot pink nails? Let me know, and thanks for stopping by!

xoxo, Jelena

Nail Look: Red Roses Water Decals

 Bright white nail polish combined with red roses creates one awesome nail look.

Products used:

Rose water decals: KKCenterHk, N.NAIL FOREVER LOVE Word And Rose Valentine's Day Decals [NNAIL-WDHHH060]

These water decals are amazing quality, they are strong and will not break or bend, and are very shiny. To use them, just cut out the desired piece, put it in water for 10 minutes, and once it slides off the paper, put it on your nail and secure with top coat. These rose water decals are my favorites, they're very effective and they look stunning. However, though they look amazing on white, the water decals are only made of red and green color, so if you were to place them on red nail polish, you wouldn't get the white lines that make these roses stand out. So, just wear them over white nail polish. I love the way these look, they're so 80s rock'n'roll. Rating: 10/10

Where to purchase this product: CLICK HERE

Other KKCenterHk products I've reviewed: CLICK HERE

Other products used:

Avon, Nail experts, Peeling and brittleness solver: dries my nails.

essence, nail art, stampy polish, 001 white: best to use this only for stamping, and not as nail polish.

Maybelline, Colorama, no.51: too watery and transparent, also slow drying (because you need 4 layers).

Maybelline, Colorama, Polka Dots, no.197: gorgeous, and goes with anything.

essence studio nails, top sealer: my favorite top coat.

Nail sugar pearls: Catrice limited edition, Candy Shock, shade 'Cotton Candy': they last for over 5 days, amazing, right?!

essence nail art, express dry drops

Are you guys into this look? Lately I've been into white nails, they look so chic. And they'll look even better once a get a little tan going. Thanks for stopping by, let me know what you think, and I'll see you soon,

Love, Jelena

Panda Nails - KKCenterHk Review

Products used for this look: 

Essence Studio Nails 24/7 nail base - I'm not sure if this is still available. I don't like it, this polish always mixes with the nail polish I put over it, and ruins the entire look. Besides, some polishes would stain my nails even despite this base, so it doesn't do a very good job. But it looks amazing by itself - it's a transparent matte shade ;)

3 x Maybelline COLORAMA 51 - Too transparent for my taste, but the texture is good. Unfortunately, it's very slow drying, which is why there's a dent on my thumb.

Essence studio nails, better than gel nails, top sealer - This one is not good for water decals, the brush is rough and it pulls them and damages them, otherwise it's a good product, these essence top coats are really great.
Maybelline COLORAMA Polka Dots, 197 - Worn on the small finger, I'm loving this polish, it's amazing and very cute.

N.NAIL Baby TarePanda Water Decals Nail Art [NNAIL-WDSY778] from KKCenterHk

Link for this product: HERE

I'm LOVING these water decals, they're so easy to use, and they look amazing. The leaves are so pretty, and who doesn't like pandas? What ruined this look is the top coat, which has a very rough brush, and it damaged my panda (#sadface), so I was careful with other nails and I made it work. I need to use a different top coat next time. Overall, I love water decals, they make your nails look fabulous in a few seconds, and they're very easy to use. I highly recommend them.

KKCenterHk N.NAIL Water Decals Review

Today I have a KKCenterHk product to present to you: N.NAIL Pink Rose Flower Nail Water Decals [NNAIL-WDHHG103].  You can check out this amazing product HERE. This is the first time I'm using water decals, and it's so easy. I cut the stickers out, removed the top foil and placed them in water for 10 minutes, and then I just applied them to my nails (more detailed instructions HERE). Using this product is similar to putting wet stickers on eggs on Easter. They're easy to use, and the effect is amazing. I applied top coat over them so they would last longer. They're very easy to remove. I now get why everyone loves water decals (it's so much better than stamping). This product is awesome, I recommend it. It's a 10/10.

The polishes I used for this look are by essence, and they're really old - like I said, I need to use up my old polishes, so I can buy new ones. As always, I used essence's Studio Nails High Gloss Top Sealer - one of my favorite products. It gives the nails amazing shine.
