NCC presents: Christmas gift/wrapping negative space nail art

So, this month I will try to do the nail art challenges within the actual time frame. By that I decided to join two challenges today, which is the Nail challenge Collaborative with the theme "negative space" and with the Winter Nail Art Challenge and the theme Wrapping/Christmas gifts.

I had something quite clear in my mind for this, with red, gold and black combined. My main idea was the combo of gold flakes on both the naked nail and on top of the red. I also added small little bows on some nails. Quite happy how this one turned out. :)

Polishes used:
Wet n Wild - Red A Good Book/Ballon rouge
Ninja Polish - The Midas Touch
R de L Young - black
Black opaque rhinestones (I used the bows).

Purple and white snowflake nail art

So a little fast post with my snowflakes for the Winter Nail Art Challenge. A bit too late, but ofc I'll show them anyhow. :) Tomorrow are my gift/wrapping paper nails. ;)

I started off with a distressed nail art in three purple nuances, then some glitter polish and white snow flake stamping on top. :) Hope you'll like.

Polishes used:
AT09 stamping plate (bought at eBay)
Moyou special nail polish
Essence - A Whisper Of Spring
Essence - Beautiful Lies
KIKO - 333
Claire's - Witchy Woman

BTW, since I'm studying an live another place than home, I only have one lamp but it sadly is a bit yellow toned.. Also it is pitch black when I get up and pitch black when I get home..So I'm really unhappy with how my photos are looking like at the moment. Will keep trying to adjust and see if I can find a better result.. :)

NCC presents: Blue monochromatic holo stamping

Hi people, today I have a special post (sadly delayed and therefore NCC has been delayed). 

I was contacted by LadyQueen a few months back and I will review some samples from their site. What first caught my attention was the stamping plates which is from the brand HEHE. If you check the site out and find something you like you can use my 15% discount code: GHLC15

The image plate I decided for is Flower Leafs Nail Art Stamp Template Image Plate hehe006,  which has 4 images with thin and crisp lines which are easy to pick up. I can really see a whole bunch of fun designs to create with the help of this image plate in the future.

I started with a blue base and stamped a blue holo on top to create a subtle monochromatic design suiting for The Nail Challenge Collaborative Monochromatic #4. This looked really stunning irl but sadly I'm a bit unhappy with the photos since it was quite dark while I took my photos and they turned out slight out of focus (which I saw after I had removed everything). So, what do you think? :D

Closeup of hehe006. I used the top right design for my mani this time. :) Here's the direct link to it:

NCC presents: Monochromatic in black

Hi, a quick post showing my 3rd post for last month's theme "monochromatic nail art" and I'm SO content how this came out, even though the pics did turn out darker than irl.

Basically I used a metallic black and then pained lines in creme black. The effect was subtle much much visible irl. Simple but really enjoyed wearing this!

Polishes used:
Kleancolor - Metallic Black
R de L Young - Black

NCC presents: b&w blackboard and chalk pen christmas light nail art

Hi all, time for the second post for Nail Challenge Collaborative, still being behind quite behind but I'll wrap it up today and the last tomorrow.

LOL, this was meant to also be a nail art for the Winter/Christmas nail art challenge hosted by Helena at Lacky Corner. Then I misread the theme.. which said Christmas candles, and I misread it to be Christmas light. So here I have my edgy freehanded little Christmas light nail art  with a "blackboard and chalk pen" feel to it. Edit: So,my interpretation was close enough..but what do you think about this? I know it is different and I think I like it. :)

Polishes used:
Claire's matte top coat
R de L Young - Mystic Black
R de L Young - White

Smitten Polish - Girl Sprouts, swatch

It is green, holographic and from Smitten Polish, 3 positive things. ;) I bought this in a facebook group and I really like it. The color is grass green and vibrant and I used 3 simple coats. This also happens to be perfect for Green Wednesday.

And some personal update. Last week I started my regular daily reposting again, then suddenly I got the information that I was able to go an education. So with some enormous stress and hazzle I was able to get some place to live in that new town where the education is held, with distance relationship with my beloved boyfriend as a side effect.. Preparing, moving and all around took my focus..but now I've settled.. And feel that I will be able to post more regularly again. I have 3 (!) NCC posts waiting from last month coming up too (photographed, but they has to be edited first). So, that's the latest info, thanks you for reading this. :)
