I’m not going to lie: I’m a nostalgic kind of person. I somehow remember specific eye looks or nail arts I’ve worn over the years, and my series Lacquered Memories are another witness of my nostalgic personality. For exactly that reason, I’d like to kick off a new series: Trends from the Past. In this series, I’m reviewing nail art trends that were hawt many years ago (and some did even come back!), and that I still do like a lot. It can be specific charms, a finish, a type of nail art, or even certain polishes that were so much sought after that the amount of pigment a brand had, were not meeting the demand anymore. Yes, that happened sometimes! Today I’m starting with a trend you either love or hate: kaviar nails.

A fun fact about me is that I am a MASSIVE Eurovision Song Contest fan. I’m always religiously following the news surrounding the event, listen to all songs the day they are released, and make my own lists each year with the entries I’d like to see win. This year was no different, and I was extremely surprised to find out an artist from my home province was the Dutch entry this year. Joost’s Europapa is a rollercoaster ride of emotions, but a very fun one. It definitely piqued my interest, and it slowly but surely made its way to the top of my ranking. Today I’m sharing my nails for the event!
We’re staying in the pastel realm today with Hema 832, and a fun topper to finish the look, Sally Hansen’s 590 “Confetti Cake”.
Today I went for a rather… unconventional combination with a hardener on top. Say what? Yep, Sally Hansen’s “18K Gold Nail Hardener” is a stunner on top of Catrice’s C05 “Nautica” from their Cruise Couture collection, and I can’t wait to show you!

Did you ever want to buy a nail polish yeeeaaaars ago, wasn’t able to find it back then, only for it to be discontinued and eventually stuck in your mind forever as a polish you’d wanted to have and gotten a permanent place on your ever growing wishlist? Yep, me as well. In fact, one of today’s nail polishes is one: Sally Hansen’s “All Yarned Up”. I’m combining it with a more contemporary polish by Catrice, “Sweet Cotton Candy”.
