It's a girl ＼（＠￣∇￣＠）／

The last day of summer today and I have to admit I couldn't be happier! Every summer I complain and complain about the heat but this August has brought me the greatest treasure. So I can finally reveal to you why things have been so quiet here since Christmas!

I was pregnant ＼（＾ ＾）／
So as you can imagine with so many changes happening in my life and all the preparations I had to make (plus I had to take it easy), there wasn't much time for blogging.

And finally a few weeks ago my baby girl came into the world! So I can say that this summer has been the best of my life so far ｡◕‿◕｡

I do not plan on abandoning my blog ofc but as my baby and me get to know each other and find our daily rhythm, posts will continue to be sporadic. I will try to post at least 2-3 times a month though until I go back to a more regular posting schedule. Hope you all had a great summer!

August nail inspiration, hot nail colours for summer, nail art tutorials

August, the last and hottest month of summer is here, so for this month's nail inspiration, let's take a look at the hottest summer nail colours, according to Japanese nail magazines. You can see 8 fun and easy to do summer nail art tutorials after the cut.

This month's scans also come from the 15 year anniversary issue of Nail Max (if you can get your hands on this issue it is totally worth it!) Just looking at all these pretties, I want them all!!!

So first up we have nails in black or white. Both classic colours for every season.

For something more feminine, red and pink nails. Both classic colours as well.

When it comes to summer nails, orange and yellow colours are a must!

And last but not least, gold and silver for a touch of glam!

What do you think dear readers? Which colour is your favourite for summer? Personally I like blue and teal nails but they were not included in this list!

As always you can click on the images for larger versions. And remember, I just scanned these images, they are the property of Nail Max and the respective nail artists. Still that doesn't mean you can steal these images ^_^

My instasummer, a photo blog post

It's been a while since I did a post like this but even though my blog is a bit quiet lately, I am very active on Instagram (you can follow me there if you like, or on facebook where I post many of my IG shots).

So here is what I've been up to in the last couple of months. First of all I got a new piece of furniture and rearranged part of my nail polish stash.

I managed to fit almost half of my collection, so I am pleased.

I also did a bit of shopping. Got some new nail polishes and beauty products.

I subscribed for Glowbox, a monthly beauty box full of beauty goodies (got two boxes so far and I have been very pleased with the contents)

Also finally got a tablet, as well as some mags, CDs, clothes and a new pair of shoes ^_^

Of course I did my nails, a lot!

And I enjoyed the sea as much as I could before the heat became too much!

What have you been up to lately dear readers? Are you on Instagram or facebook? Let's follow each other!

Korean cosmetics collective haul, Etude House, Tony Moly, Skin Food

My beauty wishlist has been growing dangerously lately as I was on a no buy but after lusting after them for so long I decided it was time to try out a couple of CC creams. Since I was on a roll I added a few other products as well (including some nail polishes of course). Everything arrived today so here is my Korean cosmetics haul!

After checking out all different types of CC creams, I decided to get the Luminous Pure Aura CC cream by TonyMoly and the 8 in 1 Silky CC cream by Etude House.

My favourite BB cream is by Etude House so I am very curious to see the effects of their CC cream on my skin. I chose the Silky version as I have oily to combination skin. This is an 8 in 1 action cream with SPF 30. Not bad if you ask me. And since Tony Moly is shaping up to be one of my absolute favourite beauty brands in general I chose their Luminous pure aura CC cream too (also with SPF 30). I am going to be trying both of them asap. I also wanted to try the Etude House moistfull series and I found two convenient sample packs that include everything. One is the Aloe Moistful skin care kit and the other is the Collagen moistfull skin care kit.

Of course I had to get some nail polishes as well!

This Etude House Halloween nail art kit is fantastic! It is called the If Story nail kit. Anything Halloween is great in my book!

I also spotted this super cute Milk Shake nail polish by Skin Food and of course I had to add it to my collection. And the lovely seller included an Etude House ice cream nail polish as a gift! How sweet!!!

Last but not least I got the Etude House Etoinette Crystal Powder. I wanted this for quite some time. First of all look at the super cute packaging! And then, it's glitter, for the face!!! Nothing can beat that. I plan to use this a lot during the summer and not just on my face, yes!!!

What do you think of these products dear readers? Is there anything you would like me to review for you? Do you own any of these or are any in your wishlist?

Last but not least as you must have heard by now, google reader is going away on Monday. So if you want to stay up to date with my blog you can do so via bloglovin, instagram, pinterest, facebook and twitter to name a few. You can find other ways to keep in touch if you just check my sidebar.
