Check out this vibrant color that is bound to be a summer favorite! Oopsy Daisy is a bright pink with a subtle magenta and blue shimmer, perfect for catching the sunlight. I stumbled upon it during a leisurely stroll at the local drugstore and am thrilled to have picked it up!
It’s my bear Arthur in the background. 🐻 On the nails, it’s two coats of Oopsy Daisy.

I haven’t posted anything in a while, but I have a good excuse: I’ve been attending the Mensa Annual Gathering in southern Germany and the Fantasy Filmfest Nights (which are happening right now). I’m still recovering from the lack of sleep from the Mensa meeting! Anyway, for this post, I randomly chose a color from my drafts and settled on Chili Together. It’s easy to describe because it’s simply chili red nail polish.
Seeing the photos makes me miss Nienburg even more – but my next stay will be in mid-May.
I really enjoyed the gathering where I had a blast bouldering, marveling at turtles, exploring botanical gardens, and much more! It was an incredibly fun and fulfilling experience.
It’s liquid icing on the cake – hence off-white and a bit sheer, but still good coverage.
Two coats are fine but to have a more opaque look, three thin coats (as shown below) will do the trick.
I had planned to present at least one of the Dior nail polishes for Christmas but forgot to take some photos. Hence this post is dedicated to Misty Shadows, which was a birthday present given to me by my daughter. We spent last weekend in Nienburg and I applied this metallic blackened green (I think it also contains a tad of blue) the same day.
Two coats shown below. It’s actually iridescent (which it says on the bottle too), shifting from dark green to a purple shimmer.

Essence have changed their bottle design so that the polish name appears on the front now. Moreover a bunch of new colours was released – and Bingo Flamingo has become a favourite. The colour is incredible, a bright and flashy red combined with hints of pink and berry, or just “flamingo red”.
Coverage is amazing; this is two coats.
I’ve always loved mints and this one is even labelled as “neon pastel”, so I was more than curious how it would look on the nail. 😎
“Frozen Mint” is a bright mint. Two coats applied.
Corona restrictions are being lifted and so I started my personal swimming season last Sunday! It was amazing. Hamburg outdoor pools are going to re-open this Saturday – but I’m in Nienburg now and a bit sad that I’ll miss it. But swimming will be the first thing to do, as soon as I am back in Hamburg (in about ten days, haha). Keep your fingers crossed that Fantasy Filmfest Nights will be screened as scheduled, i. e. from 24 – 27 June. 🙂
It’s cyan, that’s why I fell for Deep Sea Baby instantly!
These are the most recent photos I took. I painted my nails yesterday in the evening and upon uploading the photos, I thought I could post them right now. 🙂 The sun showed herself early this morning, so I seized the opportunity. I’m really happy that the days are getting longer again.
Two coats applied.
I kind of neglected this blog by accident because I had a ton of things to sort out, splitting my time between Nienburg (which is still heavily affected by Corona) and Hamburg, and I am in Hamburg now, having started my new traineeship in the field of software engineering or, to be more precise, data science, so a bit more tech. 🙂 Because of all these recent changes I thought I could present Running Wild. It’s sage (or light green) with a pretty golden shimmer.
Application was two coats, and since the photos are from last year I guess I could wear this again soon. Just my colour scheme.

Today I’d like to show you another beauty by Essence – Genie in a Bottle, which is a blue-grey shade, containing hints of cornflower blue.
Application was two coats. I took the following photos during the Covid-19 lockdown while we were enjoying our time in Nienburg.
Electric blue. Best fact about this, apart from the flashy shade, is that it’s part of the standard collection.
Two coats shown below.
