NOTD:Pink nail art

I'm still alive=P Just no time for posting, I need all my time for my studying=(

I've seen this design on many, many, maaany nails before, and I wanted to do it for a long time, but never really got to it. But now I had time, so yesterday I did it! I was doing it troughout the day(one layer-one hour of study). Anyways, here it is, yesterday's manicure:

I have to say I'm really proud of this! The design turned out great! But unfortunatelly you can see where my top coat dragged the black polish=( I was so sad when I saw this. That's why I know I won't be wearing this for long. Do you know what top coat doesn't do stuff like this??
I really wanted to make a gradient butterfly, I hope you can see that on the pictures=) It was clearly visible IRL.
Does anyone know whose idea was this? I know many ladies re-created this and I'd love to know who was the first that came up with this idea=)
Oh, and here are the polishes used for this manicure:

Do you like it?

NOTD Essence Cotton candy with a twist=)

So, here's my NOTD for today. I've chosen Essence Cotton candy from Circus, circus TE yesterday, when I saw swatches from Anna. But I didn't want to have just polish, so I thought what can I do? And heer's what I did:

These picture will be a bit bigger, because they were taken with my phone, since my camera battery died. I don't know if you are able to see this in the picture, but I'm wearing Cotton candy creme on all fingers excpet ring finger, where I'm wearing Essence Love of pink(from Multidimension line), and Cottond candy glitter on all fngers. I've stamped this with a design from Essence plate, that has different french manicure stamps on it(I hope you know what I'm talking about) and Color club Where's the soiree? Please, understand this was one of my first real tries with stamping and it's a little bit sloppy...well, it's not perfect but for now it will do. But I'm planning to improve in the future, so if you have any tips and trick...please, share!=)

Here are the pictures without stamping:

 

What can I say? i'm in love with this polish! The creme part  is just perfect! True one coater, and the colour is really amazing. I'd say it's a darkened pink/purple, depends on the light. Love of pink is a pink creme, that needed two coats for full opacity.
And the pictures without the glitter part:

How do you like my manicure?

Sally Hansen Velvet frost and sponging

I havent't posted for a few days. That's because my nails were naked, I just didn't have time to do them. But today I have had a little time and I put Sally Hansen Velvet  frost on my nails:

 

Velvet frost is a gorgeus dark green polish with frost finish. I have had a little trouble with application, because of its streakiness, but nothing I couldn't handle=) On the picture there are three coats. Aldo it is beautiful I find it a little boring on its own(yep, I'm in my "glitter/sparkle/shiny phase"), so I decided to try sponging it. I wanted to try gradient manicure for a while now, so I tried that. Here's the final result:

I used China glaze Outta bounds, China glaze Paper chasing, Sally Hansen Mistletoe, Sally Hansen Twinkle and Color club Object of envy.

I'm not really sure if I like this or not. What do you think?

Thanks for reading,
