'Cause. I. Am. A. Superwoman!

Yes, I am! (yes, she is!)

And why is that, you might be asking yourselves.
Well, I'm finally posting this for you. The mani I'm going to show you was done Monday night, at odd hours (I'm too much of a night owl, for my own good) and it lasted me till today.

I still have it on as I'm typing this, actually, and I think this makes it officially the longest time I've worn a manicure for since I started blogging about my nails, almost a year ago.

And why is that, you might be asking yourselves again.
Well, because my camera decided to go onto its death bed, unexpectadly, leaving me hanging on. True.

After trying to make it work for the gazillionth time rather unsuccessfully I must say, and after borrowing my sister's camera only to find out the quality wasn't as good so I wouldn't be able to post them (OCD killing me every step of the way), I finally went and bought a new camera - having two jobs at a time pays off eventually, you see ;)

This manicure is a simple one yet I can't help but think it's also a great one - you'll see:

If you're thinking it, know you got it right: while painting this I had this song on replay ;)

And I'm calling myself a superwoman, because despite everything going on with my camera I ddin't lose it, I kept this mani on and here it is!

Of course I owe a lot to the people who put up with me these days - trust me, I wasn't in a good mood! hahaha

So, BF, my love, thank you. 

Mom, Dad, lil' Sis, thank you. And Paulina, sweetie, thank you!

This baby is the main responsible for this mani. 

I bought it last week and the moment I put it on my nails all I could think of was Superman's suit! (check out the link if you're a fan ;)) And I'm not even a fan of Superman, go figure! hehehe

Anyway, this is Kiko 440 Electron Blue, from their Digital Lacquer limited collection.

This is a translucent blue base, packed with blue and silver glitter.
It proved opaque enough in two coats but I gave it three, just 'cause I'm demanding ;)

Have a look at all the glitter in it!!

That and check my camera's new awesome feature: microscope mode! <3
Yes, yes, I'm a happy girl all over again :)

Superman's logo was done using nothing but acrylic paint and as with all my designs this one came out this good after some really hard work.

I wasn't born with a natural drawing ability and whereas a 'gifted' person might have done this in, let's say, 15/20min, this took me almost 45min to be done with.

(And that's no joke!)

One last pic - there's been too many, I know, but I just want to show you something:

check out the white nail space from my nail bed to the polish.

That's how fast my nails grow! It'd been a while since I'd last witnessed it in person but here it is.

In only what four days? Oh yeah! :))

And that's it! Today is sunny, which I think you can tell by this picture and that also helps make it all better!

I'm happy I could finally share this one with you - I hope you've liked it as much as I have.

Now I'm off to take this one off and do something else amazing in its place!

Have a great weekend and don't forget to be Superwomen and Supermen wherever you are! :D

Hugs & Kissies,
