Lush: Tiny Hands Handserum

When i went shopping in Asmterdam with a friend of mine. We saw the Lush shop. We actually never been to a Lush shop so we decided to have a look.

There was this girl who loved to show us everything! They showed us some bath products and masks etc. She even let us try some products on our hands.

BUTT when she massaged the products onto our hands, her hands where so soft!!! I thought how come??!!, and she told us that she uses Lush Handsserum. So first I was thinking about the price, but then i thought, why not? let me try it out!!!

The dutch website says:This serum makes your hands nice and soft again and smells nice. If you massage it onto your hands the oil will melt.  This hand treatment is in solid from including argan oil, aloe vera, cocoa and shea butter, The serum is quickly absorbed, no oily hands!



I bought it for €7,95 and im not sad that i bought it !! I love it and im going to try it every evening before i go to bed ^^

What do you think of the Lush Handsserum?

Is Milk actually good for you?

Some people say its nog good for you because it will only make you fat. According to some experts, drinking milk is not as healthy as we always thought. It would be the risk of heart disease increase and you have an increased risk of prostate and breast cancer.

But people recommend 2-3 glasses of milk a day, because milk also has its good sides. It provides the main compounds of calcium, vitamin D and protein. Calcium is important for strong bones, vitamin D is necessary for the absorption of calcium in our blood and strengthens bones and teeth. Proteins provide important nutrients for our bodies. however, all these materials, we would have enough ingested with our other food. Thats what experts say.

I Actually love drinking milk, its like im addicted to milk. I really need at least 1 glass of milk a day. It also give my nails a healthy look, so im happy with drinking milk.

Nail art: Faded Flower Effect

This is a nail tutorial that was inspired by one of love4nails's designs. I always wanted to try this out but never got the change to grow long nails. now that i have long nails i just had to do it lol.

I chose to try it with a pink glittery nail polish because i find black a little to harsh like in the video from Raquel. Its not that i don't like it but this is just my way.. She is an great professional nail art guru and i like every design that she makes.

Spring 2011 collection "A French Affair

I LOVE the new Essie Spring 2011 collection "A French Affair ". An assortiment of six intoxicating retro pastels and show-stopping neutrals. As you can see nude colors are coming in! i definitely like nude colors and where them al the time. It gives your nails a natural look.

I don't have Essie nail polish but i hear a lot of positive messages about this nail polish. 2 years ago I actually thought it was they same as a dutch brand called Essence , and i wasn't very happy with essence so i never bother buying/trying Essie nail polish. But now i know its not the same and after watching some reviews i will buy one and try it out! I also thought it was a very small polish and i found it really expensive so thats another point why  i didn't want to buy it lol ^^.

I am most excited about the "Topless and Barefoot" polish. It looks like a very nice color and so natural.

Im not really into blue nails, and its kind of weird that its in this collection cause most of them are nude/natural.

Which color do you like?

Review: Bsj Nail polish

This is my first Nail polish review. Im planning on reviewing more nail polishes.I Think that this is a chinese brand. I bought it for about 2 euros.i am not happy with this polish even tho it looks like OPI. When i bought it they told me it will be a nail polish with high gloss! so when i tried it out it came out matte. I was schocked i thought maybe there is something really wrong with this nail polish. But somebody send me a message that it said in chinese that it was a matte nail polish. THATS SAD!! i think they gave me the wrong one -_-'

Tutorial: Ocean Rhinestones nails

New Nail Tutorial on my youtube channel. I got a request from Fantoma91. She wanted to see a blue design with rhinestones, so i came up with this. It really makes me think of the ocean because its blue with a nice green color.

If you want to make a design with rhinestones make sure to push them very well because this will let the rhinestones stay longer on your design.

When i apply rhinestones i like to add the topcoat first and push the rhinestones in the topcoat and after when it dries add another topcoat if you have the time and patients for it.

Tutorial: Abstract Nails

New Nail Tutorial on my Youtube channel.

This was a request by JaeMarie2008. I chose to do creme pastel colors. But you can also try doing this tutorial with different colors or making the stripes and dots black instead of white.

Korean nail polish: Petite Darlings

Im in love with korean products!! and definitely Etude House " Petite Darling's " nail polishes. I like the colors and the way the bottles look. What i like the most of this brand is that they have a lot of cream colors. i am addicted to creamy colors! I ordered some on ebay. And at this moment i have 3 bottles, but 6 still coming my way! I tried to look on the website from Etude House, but i couldn't find them anymore, only the matte collection. Maybe they are out of stock. I did see other nail polishes called Luci Darling and Dear Darling . Maybe i will try them, but first i will enjoy my petite polishes ^,^!

i have the colors from left to right:
- brown berry
- kahlua milk
- creamy gray

Nail art: White tiger french

i know everybody always do these kind of nail art. But i actually started nail art when i saw these kind of nail designs. And it was funny because when i didn't have any nail polishes i actually tried it with a eye liner

Now that im growing my nails long it looks really good. It also looks good on short nails. I even had a video on my old channel MattaniE.

Products used:

-Sally Hansen " hard as wraps " ( base and top coat )

- Essence glitter harderner

- M no. 58 White nail polish ( i think its a spanish brand )

- Black Acrylic paint and a nail art brush ( You can also use a nail art striper or a black nail polish. But i do recommend using a thicker black polish instead of a watery polish )

Nail art: Rose French

This is a nail tutorial that i have learned from a very good nail artist ^^ i just love all her nail art designs she makes and i really wanted to try this one. She also makes her own stuff for example how to make your own cuticle butter! i never get bored of watching her vids. please check her out! Go to her Youtube channel or visit her blog
