31DC2015 - Day 4; green - Green drip drop nails

Here's my green nails for the 31 day challenge. As a base I used an El Corazon Polish (swatch here) and matched it up with some green dripping. I really like this nail art type, and a funny thing is that I had such problems with it 2 years ago, but now it's feels simple, even on both hands (even if cindy always will be less good). Hope you like it too. :)

Polishes used:
El Corazon - Bloggers - BL-5, Alla, Alla nails (swatch here)
Essence -
R de L young - Black

Also I'd like to make a shout out to some of my blogger friends joining; Traces Of Polish and My Nail Polish Online. Also you'll find them and more people in the inlinkz below. Also a big thank you to Chalkboardsnails for hosting this challenge. <3

El Corazon - Bloggers - BL-5, Alla, Alla nails; swatch

Today I have a LE collection polish from El Corazon, which is a bloggers collection and each polish is named after a blogger. Mine is from a blogger called Alla, Alla nails, a blogger I haven't heard about before, but that doesn't matter. :) This is a light green crelly with small matte green hexes, small white hexes and square glitters and black matte chredded glitter. There's still some slight VNL after 3 coats but not annoyingly much. This is REALLY my type of polish, just LOVE it!
This is also my contribution to Green Wednesday.

From a mani swap with lakobotan, she nailed this one! ;)

Also, hope you haven't missed my post about the 31DC which I'll jump in and join the 1st of September. :)

Love text nail art in black and gray

For this Nail Art Sunday the theme is "letters" and even though I was close trying out that "newspaper/alcohol method", I ended up in a free hand nail art instead. I've seen some cool scripted text nail art with the text "love" for example. So basically I used a cool gray creme + black glitter polish as a base and added metal studs, free hand text limited on two nails so my left and right hand would be more cohesive. So on my dominant hand I added a black glitter gradient as accents instead. I like this look, it come out pretty clean, elegant and also simple looking in some ways too. Hope you'll like it. ^^

And below is some shot of my left hand (haha so unusual making some decent "poses" with my dominant hand and also keeping my non-dominant hand steady while taking shots);

Polishes and materials used:
ZTIZ nail polish (black)
El Corazon - 423/89 trendy jeans (swatch is coming up soon)
Black metal studs
(And L.A. Girl - Uninhibited)

El Corazon - 423/122 Fenechka, swatch

Today I'm showing the russian brand; El Corazon - 423/122 Fenechka, which is a yellow neon crelly/jelly with matte black and white glitter. I think I used 2-3 coats and application was easy. Sadly the images came out a bit crappy but I really liked the polish so this wasn't the last time you'll see this. ;) 

Oh extra info for the curious. Lakobotan tells me that "Fenechka" is the word often used for handmade bracelets. Often thiner types of bracelets. :)

El Corazon - 423/106 Souvenir Eggs, swatch

Today I'm showing the first polish I tried from the Russian swap I did with Lakobotan. It ended up being El Corazon - 423/106 Souvenir Eggs which is a minty green polish with crelly tendencies filled with small black hexes and middle sized prismatic silver glitter. I'm pretty sure I ended up with 3 coats and the polish dried normal with SV. I like the color and glitter combo and feel comfortable in the polish. 

And I hope you haven't missed that this week is green to show awareness for depression, with Vacker&Underbar as host. I was looking through a Swedish reliable site (sjukvårdsrådgivningen) and they claim that little under 50% of all women and about 25% of all men will have/has/have had some form of depression during their life. Somehow I can't help my self to question that some. Maybe there is a difference between sexes but not that big? Women are "known" to be more emotional in general but I think a part of it might be that men might be even less open to talking about their feelings than many women. Or what do you think?
