I'm moving!

Hi guys, I decided to move my blog to another platform. Google Reader is about to disappear and that was one of the few reasons I chose blogger at the beginning. You can now find me here. I hope you decide to follow me again using Bloglovin' and I can't wait to start blogging again there!

¡Hola! He decidido cambiar el blog de plataforma. Google Reader está a punto de desaparecer y esa era una de las pocas razones por las que elegí Blogger. Ahora podéis encontrarme aquí. Espero que me volváis a seguir usando Bloglovin' y estoy deseando volver a escribir en ese nuevo blog.

We have a winner!!

Hi guys! We finally have a winner for the giveaway, I just contacted her and I can't wait to show you what I create. It took me a long time, but I'm incredibly busy with college, finals are almost here. I haven't painted my nails in two weeks, so I can't wait to be done and being able to blog again. I hope you are enjoying the good weather!

¡Tenemos ganadora! Finalmente he tenido un ratito y ya tenemos una ganadora para el sorteo, ya he contactado con ella por e-mail. Estoy deseando enseñaros lo que voy a crear para ella. Últimamente estoy ocupadísima, y llevo sin pintarme las uñas dos semanas, pero en cuanto acabe los finales volveré con vosotros. ¡Espero que estéis disfrutando del buen tiempo y la primavera!

A quick mani for you today.
Una manicura que hice hace bastante.

GLITTER!


A few of you asked me how to do your own nail polish, and I am planning on doing a post about it as soon as I am back next week. For now, I am going to show you one my creations. For the base I used Sally Hansen Black Out, then I sponged my polish and finally I added a coat of Essie Matte About You. I decided to name my nail polishes after cities, so this was so colorful that needed to be called Las Vegas. What do you think?

This is a programmed post, I won’t be able to answer or read your comments until next week.

Hace unos días muchas me preguntasteis como se hacen tus propios esmaltes, y en cuanto vuelva la semana que viene voy a hacer una entrada explicándolo. Por ahora os voy a enseñar otra de mis creaciones. Primero añadí dos capas de Sally Hansen Black Out, luego con una esponja añadí mi esmalte, y por último añadí una capa de Essie Matte About You. He decidido que los nombres de mis esmaltes van a ser ciudades, y este esmalte es tan colorido que tenía que llamarlo Las Vegas. ¿Qué os parece?

Este es un post programado, no podré leer vuestros comentarios hasta la semana que viene.

Purple squares

Hi! Do you like Julep? I just have three that I got for 1 cent, but I really like them. This is Julep Morgan, a metallic purple that I really like. I decided to stamp it with Barry M Lilac Foil and one of the Bundle Monster plates. The stamping wasn't as neat as usual, but I think it's OK!

¿Conocéis la marca Julep? Yo solo tengo tres que conseguí por un céntimo, pero la verdad que me gustan bastante. Este esmalte es Julep Morgan, un morado metálico. Lo estampé con Barry M Lilac Foil y una placa de Bundle Monster.

Guest post from Polish. Glitter. Rock & Roll

Hey Everyone!  It's Danielle here from Polish. Glitter. Rock & Roll!  I am so excited to be doing a guest post for Belen.  I hope I can do her lovely little blog justice.  Here we go!
I prepared an awesome gradient with some of my favorite polishes.  The yellow is China Glaze Lighthouse, orange is Zoya OC Cooler, and the pink is Zoya Soho Punch.  Soho Punch is actually not that light pink, but when you sponge it on, this is what happens.  All three of these are full of gorgeous glass flecks.  The application was a bit of a pain, but the payoff was totally worth it.  Look at how reflective!  Oooohhh!
I thought it would be fun to add some stamping to this gradient.  It looked bright and "fiery" to me so I chose a stamp that looked like feathers because I was really leaning towards a phoenix as my inspiration.  The design is from the Bundle Monster stamping plate bm-210 and I just used a basic black creme polish.  I also wanted the black to really pop so I used a matte top coat to tone down the reflective gradient.
This is what it looks like with a top coat.  So what do you think?  Will you be recreating this mani? Thank you so much to Belen for letting me post on her blog.  I am so honored that she would have me.  If you were brought here from P. G. R&R!, don't forget to follow Nail Polish Lane before you leave.  If you haven't been to P. G. R&R!, check me out HERE.  You can also follow me on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, and Instagram.  (:

Black matte and stamp

Hi guys! I am going to be away for a week, but I have a few blog post prepared for you, and on Monday you will see an amazing blog by another blogger!

Zoya Charla

Hi guys! Today I have another beautiful Zora to show you, Zoya Charla. As always, it is gorgeous! I wish I had more Zoyas, and hopefully there will be a good deal like that last one soon, they are just amazing in my opinion. I wore it alone for a day, and then I decided to add some glitter with a polish I did myself, what do you think? 
Don't forget to enter my giveaway!

Spice up interview nails!

The other day I had to wear classy, nude nails for an interview. Obviouly, they were this simple for just a few hours. I decided to add some gold microbeads to it, and I love how it looked! It didn't last for a long time because it was not very practical, but I plan on doing this for a night out. The base is Essence Iced Latte, from the old collection.

El otro día tuve que llevar la típicas uñas de color beige para una entrevista. Obviamente, las uñas nos duraron mucho tiempo así de simples. Añadí unas cuentitas doradas. Al final no llevé esta manicura tampoco durante muchas horas porque no era muy práctico, pero desde luego que voy a volver a hacer esto para salir alguna noche. El color de la base es Essence Iced Latte, de la colección antigua.

Zoya Aurora is back!

I showed you Zoya Aurora a few days ago. I had to use it again, and now I decided to put matte top coat (the one from Essie), and it was amazing! You cannot see the matte effect in the pictures, but if you have this polish, you should do it, NOW! I did one of famous Nailside designs, the clouds. For them I used Sally Hansen Black Out and Barry M Lilac Foil. It is really easy and quick to do, and it looks great.

Os enseñé Zoya Aurora hace unos días, y el otro día decidí volver a usarlo, pero esta vez con efecto mate. Para ello utilicé Essie Matte About You. Luego añadí las nubecitas usando el famoso tutorial de Nailside. Usé Sally Hansen Black Out y Barry M Lilac Foil. Este tipo de manicuras son muy rápidas y fáciles de hacer, y quedan genial.
