It’s also Christmas time for your hands! These are my four favourite manicures found on Pinterest, they are relatively easy to do. I’ll just add a few notes and their sources to help you recreating them. 1) A non conventional Christmas tree: it’s a black french manicure and an accent nail with a black, sinuous tree drawn with a permanent ink marker, as the blogger has done. If you have a black french pen, that would be the perfection! The look is refined with a white speckled effect top coat and a silver star on the top of the tree. Any white glitter top coat will be fine and the…

Nailene Couture Safari Design Nails Kit – review
The quickest and easiest way on the market to transform our nails is using false nails, indeed in no time we can change length, shape, colour and style with few drops of glue.It’s that simple and amazing that I’ve changed my manicure with the Couture Safari kit designed by Nailene.

Easy Peasy Dipped into Gold Nail Art
A few days ago, during a boring afternoon, I decided to do my manicure. I opted for a very dark nail polish, I choose an intense plum from the First Lady line, it’s the number 24 and it isn’t in the Italian market yet. So, yes it’s a sneak peek! I applied two thin coats, once dried, I applied a golden glittery top coat with 1mm hexagonal and small round glitters, the Avon Color Trend “Gold Flecked”, from the tip of the nail to half lenght. Again I let the nail polish to air dry and then I applied two coats of a super cheap glitter top coat I have…
