zoya - Lucy's Stash

Hello lovelies,

How are you all? Another weekend is over and I'm dreading just thinking about another Monday :( But at least it will help me to get back to my blogging routine and writing posts more regularly again.

For today I have prepared a manicure which I wore for a music concert in London. My favourite Czech band called Kryštof played two concerts in the UK and I was so happy I could go to one of them.

I purchased some of the new MoYou London stamping plates from the Doodles collection and this was a great opportunity to test them out...

I have started with OPI Natural Nail Base Coat and two coats of OPI My Vampire Is Buff. Then I've sponged on OPI My Vampire Is Buff and Kiss Me I’m Brazilian, creating a gradient effect. I've used Zoya Purity and MoYou London Doodles Collection 03 stamping plate for the stamping. Lastly, I've finished the manicure with a coat of Seche Vite Topcoat.

I thought the whole manicure came out pretty neat and I really like the new MoYou London Doodle plates and I can't wait to try the second one I bought! What do you think? Would you wear it? :)

Have a lovely day everyone! Lucie x

Hello lovelies,

How are you all today? I'm struggling a bit with being inspired and with writing new posts but otherwise I'm good. I blame all the pre-wedding stress with planning and the pressure of it all! Any advice?

Sooo... today's manicure is one of my older ones I did a while ago and never managed to publish it. I was playing with the Zoya matte polishes and took a partial inspiration from dotted aboriginal art...

Abstract Aboriginal Inspired Nails with Zoya

I have used Zoya Harlow, Savita, Dovima and Purity for this manicure. I've decided not to keep the matte finish and I topcoated the nails with Seche Vite to get nice and smooth finish instead. Also these polishes have a subtle shimmer that looks very nice with glossy topcoat. All painted freehand with a small nail art brush and dotting tool.

What do you think of this manicure?

Have a lovely day everyone! Lucie x
