This is a light violet color. It’s also a little bit holographic but in the picture it isn’t visible. It takes a long time to dry also because I put a lot since it’s almost transparent. I don’t remember the price but Deborah’s polishes are usually around 5/6 €.

This is my first swatch. I will not write a full review because my english isn’t so good and I don’t think I can express myself well enough.
I will post pictures. If you have suggestions to improve this section feel free to write me.

This is a brown color with some red glitter. It’s called “Melanzana Glitter”. In english “Glitter Egg-plant”. I don’t understand why it’s called like that, isn’t the egg-plant more violet? Well, it’s a really good polish, it last for a long time but it’s a bit expensive! (€ 11.90 if don’t remember wrong)

I really love fall and its colors, so here is a nail art inspired by the autumn’s leaves and flowers. I made two versions of this nail art because I couldn’t choose witch one I liked the most!
What you need: a thin brush, a needle.
Colors:

- Base Coat: Debby nail THERAPY smoothing base + minerals
- Brown: COLLISTAR No: 42 MELANZANA GLITTER
- Gold: Deborah Shine TECH No: 21
- Glitter Gold: KIKO No. 164
- White: KIKO No. 101
- Red: RIMMEL Lycra PRO No. 323 RIVIERA RED
- Top Coat: KIKO Extra strong & hard No.04
How to:
Apply your base coat.
Apply a dark brown. Apply a second coat if needed.
With the thin brush and the gold polishes draw some lines. They don’t have to be perfect. Add some glitter if you want.
With the head of the needle draw some white dots. They have to be small.
With the head of the needle draw some dots, red this time, but don’t cover the white ones completely. When PERFECTLY dry apply your top coat. (Since in the dots the polish is concentrated it may take a while to dry, be sure to wait or you will ruin everything.)
__________________________
Here is the final result. I made it only on one nail because its a detailed nail art and I didn’t want it to be too much, but you can do it on the whole hand if you like it!
Using the same technique and changing the colors you can have different results. Here is a lighter version.
Colors:
- Base Coat: Debby nail THERAPY smoothing base + minerals
- Yellow: Bottega Verde No. 15
- Gold/Brown: I don’t remember where this come from…
- Orange: KIKO No. 112
- Dark Red: KIKO No. 116
- White: KIKO No. 101
- Red: RIMMEL Lycra PRO No. 323 RIVIERA RED
- Top Coat: KIKO Extra strong & hard No.04

Here is FINALLY my Halloween inspired nail art.
There are four types of nail art in this tutorial, you can make it on only one nail or on all the nails!!
HAVE FUN!!
What you need: a brush, a sponge.
Colors: I used halloween colors like orange, purple, blue, black and white. For some decoration I also used a glitter silver polish.
How to: TYPE A “Jack-o-Lantern”
Apply a orange polish. I used two coats here.
With a dark green polish draw a little leaf at the base of your nail.
With the thin brush and a black polish draw the face of the Jack-o-Lantern.
I added some glitter on the eyes.
How to: TYPE B “Stripes”
Apply a white polish. I used two coats.
Draw a diagonal tip with a orange polish.
Apply the purple polish over the orange one.
Here I added a third color: a blue with a violet reflex. (I used RIMMEL 60 Seconds No. 809 BLUE ME AWAY from the new collection, I also bought No. 819 GREEN WITH ENVY and No. 430 CORALICIOUS, they are all wonderful especially CORALICIOUS, I will soon use it for a nail art!)
With the glitter polish and the thin brush I added some lines between the colors to make them stand out more.
How to: TYPE C “Ghost”
I used a blue polish with violet reflex.
I cut a “ghost shape” in a piece of paper and put it on the nail with some tape.
With a sponge and some white polish I made the little ghost.
Draw eyes and mouth whit a thin brush and black polish.
In the end I’ve added some glitter only on the blue polish.
How to: TYPE D “Little Monsters”
Apply a white polish. I used two coats.
With a sponge make some “stains” with orange and purple polishes.
With the thin brush and the black polish draw the faces of the monsters. I also added a star.
Make some details with the glitter polish.

Here is the final result.

I took my inspiration from these Japanese nail arts.

I’m getting tired of too much complicated nail arts so this time I made a really simple one.
Soon I will make some Halloween inspired nail arts so stay tuned!
What you need: some rhinestones.
Colors:

- Base Coat: Debby nail THERAPY smoothing base + minerals
- Brown: RIMMEL WEAR MAXX No. 393 DESIRE
- Top Coat: KIKO Extra strong & hard No.04
How to:
Apply your base coat.
Apply your nail polish. If needed apply a second coat.
Here is the color outdoor. This polish is a wonderful brown with a “reddish” reflex and is super difficult to make it come out good in a picture.
When the polish is dry apply some rhinestones. I used this ones that were already in that shape but If you use single ones you can make whatever shape you like. Have fun!!

Yesterday was my birthday so I came up with this birthday-inspired nails. There are presents on the nails and a cake on the thumb.
Actually I think that also five cakes would have been cute, maybe I will try that next time!
What you need: a thin brush, a needle.
Colors:

- Base Coat: Debby nail THERAPY smoothing base + minerals
- Nude: KIKO No: 220
- Pink: Broadway Extra Color No. 03
- Silver Glitter: RIVEEL No. 131
- White: KIKO No. 101
- Glitter: KIKO No. 163
- Top Coat: KIKO Extra strong & hard No.04
How to:
Apply your base coat.
Apply a coat of nude polish and then some silver glitter. Actually I don’t think this is such a grat combination of colors, probably it would have been better without the glitter so if you don’t like leave just the nude polish.
I applied the nude polish on all the four fingers and the pink one on the thumb.
With the brush and the pink polish draw a cross on the nail and then make a ribbon. I choose to make the ribbon only on the ring finger but you could do that on all the nails.
This is the result.
On the thumb I applied some white polish for make the cake. Help yourself whit the brush for give the right shape.
Put some glitter on the white polish and, when dry, use a needle to make the cherry. Do a bigger red dot and then a smaller white one. When PERFECTLY dry apply your top coat.

This is a little experiment I made a few days ago.
I wanted to see if I could use paper to decorate my nails. Well, the answer is YES!!
I used very thin paper to make the circles.
What you need: thin paper, a thin brush.
Colors:

- Base Coat: Debby nail THERAPY smoothing base + minerals
- Light Blue: KIKO No. 159
- Yellow: RIVEEL No. 190

How to:
Apply your base coat.
Apply two coats of white polish.
Cut a few circles of paper and, with a clear polish, apply them on your nails. Be sure to make them stick perfectly to your nail.
This is the result after I made all my nails. I already liked it like this but I wanted to give them a glitter touch.
I added a few lines of polish of the same color of the circles and a few lines of silver polish. On the circles I added some silver glitter. When everything was perfectly dry I applied my top coat.

On the ring finger and the thumb I added a small ribbon. It isn’t an easy thing to do so if you are not skilled I suggest you to leave the nail like that. I hate when I mess up a nail and I have to start again.
-

Here my thumb. In the end I added also a glitter pink polish over the fuxia to give it a 3D feeling and in the end a little rhinestone.
I took my inspiration from a Japanese magazine. Here is the original:
