#ShowMeYourMani

Posted on September 26, 2014 by phoenixbeautylounge

Hey everyone,

Here’s a new installment of our #ShowMeYourMani feature This week i was wearing a combo from #ChinaGlaze #TheGiver collection, that was inspired by the namesake movie and the book.

China Glaze The Giver: “Friends Forever, Right?” with “The Outer Edge” glitter on my accent nail

I was wearing the white with a touch of pink undertone, called “Friends Forever, Right?” with “The Outer Edge” glitter on my accent nail. I find it goes well with black-and-white monochromatic fashion looks that are huge this season and also nods to the 60’s Mod subculture style that was popular on Fall-Winter 2014 fashion runways. This nail look is a softer version of white, without being too stark or “whiteout’y” the fact which i personally liked And also, i’m not psychologically ready yet to embrace the dark and moody colors that everyone expects you to wear in fall So i’d call it a nice “transitional” mani look

Hope you like it and we’ll be thrilled to see what you guys are wearing in this awesome weather! So please #ShowMeYourMani by attaching a photo to the comments below!

Thank you and take care,
Liliana

It’s #showmeyourmani time again!

Posted on October 22, 2013 by phoenixbeautylounge

Hey everyone,

It is #showmeyourmani time again! 🙂

This week i’m wearing (!) surprise 🙂 Deborah Lippmann nail polish named “Lady Sings the Blues”. It is a lovely glitter polish in a deep blue base. I love how the jelly texture of the base makes almost an “ombre” effect on the hex silver glitter particles.. The polish has pretty good coverage and is packed with glitter. It’s amazing for a special night out, and yet it even looks good with dark jeans 🙂 This was two coats. Hope you liked it 🙂

Manicure Show Time! #showmeyourmani

Posted on October 9, 2013 by phoenixbeautylounge

Hello everyone,

It’s manicure show time again! Yey!

This week i’m wearing a deep saturated red by Deborah Lippmann that’s been on my wish-list for a while now. It’s Deborah Lippmann “Lady is a Tramp”, one of her iconic best-seller colors.

This is a true deep red that’s not leaning towards cool or warm and it’s easy for everyone to pull off. It seems to look even more retro glam on my oval-shaped nails. I’m almost tempted to use a dial phone and a fountain pen. By the way, the draft of this blog post was written on a typewriter. This was three thin coats.

Deborah Lippmann Lady is a Tramp

And of course when i think of this name, this is the first thing that comes to my mind.

“Lady is a Tramp” by Lady Gaga and Tony Bennet. Has anyone else fall in love with their electric performance of this jazz standard? Honestly, it was a big eye-opener for me.. So go check it out!
