I remember when I was young ages ago I had some Manhattan polishes, so it was quite
nostalgic to find the brand in Germany. The gorgeous shade with the
“interesting” name 67N is a true one coater, dry time a bit on the slow side. I
used P2 544 My place or yours? for sponging across the nail, and then I went
berserk with white flowers, and I really liked it. The top coats is – have you
guessed it by now: Seche Vite :)
Da jeg var ung for rigtigt mange år siden, havde jeg også
nogle Manhattan neglelakker, så det var helt nostalgisk at genfinde mærket i
Tyskland. Denne smukke farve med det ”interessante” navn 67N er en et-lags
lak, men tørretiden er noget langsom. Jeg brugte P2 544 My place or yours? til
at duppe tværs hen over hver negl, og så gik jeg amok med hvide blomster, og
jeg var ret vild med dem! Toplakken er – har du gættet det – JA Seche Vite!! ;)
Beautiful flowers. I can't make my flowers look has good has yours :)
SvarSletThank you so much Beautyshades, practice, practice - and one day LOL
SletYou're the flower queen Maria! hehe. Love it! ♥
SvarSletAwww, thank you so much LuckyLoveNails :)
SletI love Manhattan's polishes, I always buy a few when I'm in Germany :)
SvarSletFor how long have you been making nail art? I'm just curious because I think you're really good at it!
I actually only have this one - I felt the dry-time was a bit slow - but I might try some more...
SletWell my first shot was the "Christmas Story" than on off more or less, until around the beginning of March, where I became more serious!
OH, I forgot: THANK YOU so much Rainbowify Me, I'm happy you think so :)
SletWhat? Beginning of March this year? O_o
SletIn that case I'm *seriously* impressed!!!
Thank you so much :)
SletAt my age I need to speed up the learning curve to keep up with the young girls, that have their life in front of them LOL
Nah, honestly, I love to do it, and have discovered something new I can do - but didn't know I could, and I love that.
Sob story: When I was a child getting love was connected to being "good enough". Not being loved because of who you are but because of what you are good at has it's costs. One of them is to believe that you actually ARE good enough LOL
Hahaha - speeding up the learning curve, eh? ;D
SletI know all about the sob story. Even as an adult my dad can still make me feel like: "Yes, that's good, but it would be better if..." Argh! It never ends! LOL
Yup :)
SletNo, it never really ends, but we tend to get better at handling to older we get. Unfortunately it's a story that way too many (girls especially) recognize. Frankly that's why I chose not to become a mum myself, I was afraid of doing the same to my children..
I'm sure you wouldn't have :) But I like that people actually consider whether to have children or not, instead of just having them because "you're supposed to"!
SletThanks a lot Polish AMOR :)

Sletyour flowers continue to amaze me! I am so lucky to look at your work ever blog that comes out! Don't ever give up your passion for flowers!

SvarSletThanks a lot Laura, I'm so happy you like it :)
SletSuch a pretty colour! & I love the mani :] I have three manhattan polishes from a giveaway I won last year, and I love them all, especially the yellow I won.
SvarSletLuckily they listed the names of them, just having numbers drives me crazy!
Thank you so much Jennius - I agree the numbers only is so annoying...
SletI love how starkly the white flowers stand out against the deep purple base- really nice manicure, Maria!
SvarSletThank you so much The Lacquer Tracker, I love the hard contrast too :)
SletOMG is this freehand? I love the flowers!
SvarSletThank you so much Vita, yes, all my nail art is freehand unless otherwise stated :)
SletAlthough it has such a disappointing name :-) "67N" is a beautiful colour! :-)
SvarSletI like the effect that you get with the "sponging", I like the combination of colours and I also like that the flowers are big but we can still see the beautiful "background"! :-)
Thank you so much Raggio di Luna, I'm happy you like it :)
SletVery nice!
SvarSletThank you so much :)
