Ultra Glossy Stylo Lipstick in 816 Pearly Hot Pink

Hello my Beauties,

how are you doing?
Today’s post has 3 different parts, that i’m sure you are going to like. So grab your favorite cup of tea & let’s begin.

By the end of march my Twitter friend Radi and i have decided to do a little nail polish swap. As Radi lives in Bulgaria she was kind enough to offer me some of the polishes that are being sold there & i on my part of course picked out a few german based brands for her.
You can see her post on the swap HERE. She also did a beautiful design with the KIKO Sugar matt, that was originally the idea for a swap.

Today i got the parcel from Bulgaria and obviously couldn’t wait to try some of the sparkling goodies, that i’ve found inside.
I tried my best to take a few good pictures in today’s horrible light, but the gloomy & grey weather didn’t make it easier for me. I really hope you get the idea anyways.
As you can see the “Perfect” base coat appears much more purplish in the flash light.
The Jolly Jewels polish has quite a thick consistency and is really opaque in just one coat.
In this shot the “shiny jewels” are much more noticeable & visible. They have a lovely rose gold shimmer to it.
I really like how the two polishes became one mani. Now i’m really curious for how long it’s going to stay on my nails.
Have you tried any of these polishes yet?

As the second part of the post i would like to share with you Radi’s guest post with you. I asked her to do a nice & fun spring nail art and she did a really great job, if you ask me. But see for yourself and don’t forget to visit her blog, to see more great swatches and design ideas.

Hello everyone!
This is my first guest post I`m making for Luchessa`s blog and I hope you like it!

I`ll show you Step by Step how to paint these cute ladybugs on my nails.

First are the things you`ll need:

Base coat, pink polish, top coat, black, white and acrylic paint, regular and detailed brush.

1. Make the pink french and when it`s dry paint the bodies of the ladybugs next to each other.

2. Outline the ladybugs with black acrylic paint. Make their legs, dots and heads, too.

3. Make two white dots and smaller black ones over them in every ladybug`s head as eyes.
And a little waterry white paint onto the wings` edge.

4. Cover with top coat!
And here is one closer look of theese cute ladybugs on my both hands:
And this is the complete look of the design:

Hope you like it and it`s useful to those of you who like painting their nails.

All the best,

Radi

So what do you think, Beauties? Isn’t it just a cute mani? If you try to do it yourself, make sure to take a picture and tweet it to Radi, who can of course be found on Twitter HERE.
And now to the last part of this post. For those of you, who read it until this point, it should be worth it. 😉
