Guest Post Feature: Beauty-Junkie.net!

Hello once again to all the lovely ones reading this post! :) It was much regretted that I have totally missed out on last month's blog feature, but fret not! I'm very pleased to have dear Bethany, of Beauty-Junkie.net to guest post here today! On her blog, she not only provides some of the best tips and reviews of budget beauty shopping but with a good dose of nail arts and nails related posts (just nice for my eye-candy feeding ◠‿◠ ). Without further ado, let's welcome Bethany!~ ^.^

Hello everyone! This is Bethany from Beauty-Junkie.net, a blog which focuses on reviewing the best budget beauty products from around the globe. I also dabble in nail art, which is how I came across Lacqueerisa's fabulous blog. 

Guest Post Feature: PlumeriaPainted

A very good morning to all of you lovely readers! It's the 3rd of the month again and I am very honoured to be able to feature yet another talented blogger, Gillian from PlumeriaPainted! I got to know of her blog through a mutual nail art competition  that both of us joined and I've been a happy fan of her work ever since! ;) Equipped with mainly dotting tool/toothpick, black/white nail art pens used alongside with the default brushes of nail polishes, she's your one of a kind, master of freehand technique! I find myself in awe with the designs she was able to come up with given the limited tools to work with. It definitely has become her style! This lovely morning, I am proud to present unto you, the one and only Gillian of PlumeriaPainted!: 

Hello there readers of Lacqueerisa!! I'm Gillian and I write a lil' blog called PlumeriaPainted where I do nail art and all that other nail business that we all know and love. When Lacqueerisa asked me to guest post, I was beyond ecstatic cause this blog is so fantastic, and of course afterwards many happy a dance was done (and I dance like a pro! :P).

Then came the matter of what to paint. My favourite designs on Lacqueerisa are the wonderful geometric ones, so I had to incorporate that. Then I decided to combine that with my favourite thing for nail art, FOOD!!! Sprinkle in a hint of Christmas theme (we're allowed to be excited for Christmas/Holidays, it's December!!) and I present to you...

After much deliberation I chose to do nacho and taco nail design, playing on that lame nacho cheese joke (not yo cheese in case you don't get it :P) to give you a flavour of what I'm about. The concept was the contents of the taco were exploding out of it (but in a not macabre way) and the nachos got thrown in too. So it's quite chaotic but I really like it, as I always say - You can't say no to cute food (or just anything cute in general). I've eaten a taco precisely one time, and that one time and all the contents fell out the moment I bit into it, so that works with this design too but in a less cool way.

I started with a yellow base and continued by adding all the condiments and ingredients. I freehanded some wavy lines for the sauce. For the salsa I got various reds and dabbed to give depth and the look like lumps (which I know sounds very appealing :/). I continued to freehand the various foods and added details like cute little kawaii faces (─‿‿─)

Here I have a strange hand position to show how the sauce connects on all the nails and subsequently explodes.

Base: Ciate - Loop The Loop
Taco and Nachos: M&S - Maize with a base of Lovely Me:Ex - White and taco's cheeks are Essie - E-Nuff Is E-Nuff
Black details and white sparkle eyes: Lovely Me:Ex - Black and Barry M - Matt White
Tomato: OPI - Dutch Tulips
Lettuce: Illamasqua - Nomad
Salsa: Essie - E-Nuff Is E-Nuff, M&S - Poppy, w7 - Burnt Amber, Barry M - Raspberry and OPI - Jinx
Sour Cream and Chive: Barry M - Matt White and L'Oreal Color Riche - Confetti
I felt really clever about using black and white glitter for chives but then sad reality of my life is that I'm not a genius :P
Cheese and um shredded vegetables: Barry M - Sour Apple
I used bar glitter to give the impression of grated cheese but I don't own only yellow bar glitter so let's just say the blue is a shredded vegetable of some sort.

Thank  you so much for reading and thank you Lacqueerisa an enormous amount for letting me post here!! I hope everyone have a wonderful day!! ^_^

Haha!! Did you all enjoyed that? Cause I definitely did! I really just can't get over how adorable those nacho tacos are! My favourite is the thumb! Simply because it has an infectious smile and the cheek blush is soooo kawaii!! Hehe! :P But they are all just as lovely! Great job, Gillian on such a beautiful nail art! This nail art of hers, totally left me feeling fuzzy warm and all smiles! (btw you're much welcome Gillian, but really, thank you for doing this! ^_^ ) If you'd like to see more of her style, don't hesitate to hop on over and follow her blog! ;)

Guest Post Feature: Miss.Love2807

Hello everyone! Today I am very proud to present unto you one of my favourite blogger of all time -- Anhy from miss.love2807! She never fails to impress me with the uniqueness of her nail arts and always served with the right dosage of Anhy-ness in them ;) Without further ado, I present to you Anhy:

Hello dear Lacqueerisa readers! 

My name is Anhy and I am honored to be the guest blogger today on Lacqueerisa.

"Once upon a time there was a little, six-year-old girl who got her first nail polishes from her mother as a birthday present..."

This is how I'd start my nail polish love story. Hihi ^.^

I'm a vietnamese girl in her twenties who lives in Germany and has passion for nail art, obviously. I named my blog Miss.Love2807 because the youngest sister in the anime "Cat's Eye" has the name Love and I thought it was cute. 2807 just represents my birthday. Together my blog name can also be translated as "the Miss who loves her life and is grateful for every day".  Even though I created my blog in 2009, it was only last year that I started to blog regularly and mostly focused on nail designs. lol.

Guest Post Feature: Lackaffen!

Happy Morning!! I am very happy to be able to feature my fellow friends of Lackaffen, whom you may recall, have given me the wonderful opportunity to guest post for them few weeks back. And nothing pleases me more than to have them here this morning! :) 

Dear readers of Lacqueerisa, 

We're so excited to present our very first guest post! Thank you so much Lacqueerisa for giving us this opportunity! ♥ 
We are five ladies from the German nail polish blog called, 'Lackaffen'. It's sort of a word play. 'Lackaffen' is actually an insult, meaning something like 'dumbass', haha. That's not what we consider ourselves of course! ;) 
If you translate it word by word it's (nail) polish (=Lack) and monkey (=Affe). We considered this a good name as we all love nail polish... and monkeys are cute and funny. 
So... enough talking now. Here are some designs we made for our guest entry today. Hope you enjoy!

And by the way: Sorry in advance for mistakes in our writing. English is not our native language, but we tried our best!
