Swatches of Manhattan - 78T, 51L, 87D

Kada sam vam juce pokazala sta sam sve ove nedelje kupila, MyPerfectLounge je ostavila komentar da joj se najvise svidja tamno plavi Manhattan, a posle i rozi :). Zato sam danas odlucila da vam pokazem sva tri odjednom. Sto se tice opsteg utiska, lakovi imaju svega 7ml, a cetkica im je veoma kratka, siroka i gusta, tako da mi je to otezalo mazanje.

78T je tamno plav, u senci cak pomalo i siv. Nanosi se u dva sloja, mada sam na suncu tek videla da mu ni treci ne bi skodio.

When I showed you yesterday I polishes that I bought this week, MyPerfectLounge left a comment saying that she loves dark blue Manhattan, and rose one too :). That's why I decided to show you all three of them today at once. About all of them, nail polishes have only 7ml, and brush is very short, wide and bushy, so that made it hard to apply. 

78T is dark blue, in shade a little bit grey. It's opaque in two coats, although I noticed in the sun that third coat fit perfectly.

51L je kremasti lak bebi roze boje. Nanosi se u dva sloja. Boja je lepa, ali ne ide uz moj ten.

51L is cream baby pink nail polish. It's opaque in two coats. Colour is nice, but it doesn't fit on me.

87D... ocekivala sam najvise od njega, posto mi se ova tirkizno plava boja jako svidela. Nazalost, svaki potez cetkicom je jako vidljiv (vise uzivo nego na slikama). Na mojim noktima su tri sloja laka, mada su dva bila dovoljna, dok sam trecim pokusavala da izbegnem linije koje je on pravio.

87D... I expected most from this one, since I loved that turquoise blue colour. Unfortunately, every brush stroke is visible (more in live, then it's on pictures). On my nails there are three coats of nail polish, although two were enough. I tried to avoid those lines that he makes with third one.

Jel imate neki Manhattan lak za nokte? Da li vam se dopadaju? Koji preporucujete?

Do you own any Manhattan nail polish? Do you like them? Which one do you recommend?

Mood Struck - Teal to Turquoise

Ako ste procitale moj prethodni post, verovatno ste vec pretpostavljale koji lak imam na noktima :). Jos jedan od onih sto menjaju boju u odnosu na raspolozenje (temperaturu). Mood Struck - Teal to Turquoise. Kada su vam nokti topli, oni su nekako svetlo zeleni/svetlo plavi, dok su na hladnim temperaturama tirkizni. Ono sto sam primetila je da, za razliku od onog prethodnog Claire's laka koji menja boju, razlika u bojama kod ovog laka je mnogo manja, jedva primetna. Trebala su dva sloja laka, koji se osusio na mat. Naravno, morala sam da premazem providnim top coat :). 

If you read my previous post, you probably already know what nail polish I have on my nails :). Another one that changes colour based on your mood (temperature). Mood Struck - Teal to Turquoise. When you're nails are hot, they are kind of light green/light blue, while on cold temperature they are turquoise. Thing that I noticed is that, colour difference is less noticeable, unlike it was a case with Claire's Mood Changing nail polish. It took two coats of nail polish, that dried on matte. Of course, I had to apply top coat :).

Poslednje dve slike su onakve kakvi su mi nokti najcesce bili. Svetli, sa tamnijim vrhovima (posto su vrhovi nokta hladniji od ostatka). Iskreno, ne svidja mi se nesto ova kombinacija. Sta vi mislite?

Last two pictures shows how my nails usually were. Light, with darker tips (since tips are colder than rest of the nails). To be honest, I don't really like this combination. What do you think?

Saturday Haul (delivered as Nail Mail)

Ove nedelje sam opet bila "vredna". Nisam imala vremena da setam po prodavnicama, ali sam kupila od jedne devojke 11 novih lakova i taman su stigli na vreme za danasnji post :). Tu su tri Manhattan laka (moji prvi Manhattan), sest (takodje mojih prvih) Catrice laka i dva Essence laka iz dve stare kolekcije (Nails in Style i Ballerina Backstage). Sve ukupno me je izaslo oko 1300 din (13 eura) :).

This week I was "hardworking" again. I didn't had time to walk through the stores, but I bought from one girl 11 brand new nail polishes and they arrived this morning :). There are three Manhatten nail polishes (my first Manhattan), six (also my first) Catrice nail polishes and two Essence from two old collections (Nails in Style and Ballerina Backstage). All together I paid about 13 euros (15$) :).

Sto se tice mojih noktiju, upravo ih lakiram, tako da ocekujte da ih vidite kasnije danas :). Hint : menja boju :)

About my nails, I'm polishing them now, so expect to see them later today :). Hint : it changes colour :)

Inserting some colours in my life

Iako su ovi dani kisoviti, tuzni, pomalo sivi, treba uneti malo boje u zivot. Doprinosi boljem raspolozenju :). Kada je u pitanju tehnika sa sundjerom, probala sam je jednom, i nije mi se dopalo jer povrsina nokta postane gruba na dodir, sa mnogo tackica i cak ni top coat ne pomaze dovoljno. Zato sam i odustala od nje, dok nisam pronasla ovaj tutorijal na blogu Laynie Fingers. Priznajem da sam bila zaintrigirana, te sam morala da probam :). Nasumicno sam uzela lakove : the Balm - Red From Cover to Cover, Essence - Bad Girl, the Balm - Hella Yella, the Balm - Jade in the USA, i Essence - Let's get lost. Krajnji rezultat nije los, barem je glatko na dodir (naravno, posle top coat-a), ali vas upozoravam da ima mnogo ciscenja da se radi nakon ovoga. 

Althought this days are rainy, sad, kind of grey, we need to insert some colours in a life. Results will be better mood :). When it comes to sponging nails, I tried that once, and I didn't like it because surface of the nail gets all bumpy, with lots of dots and even top coat doesn't help enough. That's why I gave up on that, until I found this tutorial on Laynie Fingers blog. I admit I was intrigued, so I had to try it out :). I randomly picked polishes : the Balm - Red From Cover to Cover, Essence - Bad Girl, the Balm - Hella Yella, the Balm - Jade in the USA, and Essence - Let's get lost. Result isn't that bad, at least it's smooth on touch (of course, after top coat), but I warn you, there is a lot of clean up to do after this. 

Sta mislite? Hocete li pokusati ovo? 

What do you think? Will you try this?

I feel Radioactive

Htela sam danas da nalakiram jos jedan od onih lakova sto menjaju moju u odnosu na raspolozenje, ali vec je padao mrak, pa ne bih imala vremena da ga uslikam u svim varijantama.  A sta je bolje od laka koji svetli u mraku za noc? Zato sam nalakirala nokte sa jos jednim lakom koji sam dobila iz kkcenterhk.com -  EBALAY Grass Green Translucent Glow Luminous Nail Polish (ili krace Ebalay - Glow - 009). Nalakirala sam tri sloja, i lak se nije hteo osusiti cak ni posle sat vremena. Pretpostavljam da bi se osusio, kada bi ispod njega bila podloga u boji, i samo jedan sloj ovog  laka. 

Na svetlu, nije nista poseban, ali je u mraku stvarno lep. Na kraju sam uspela da nesto i nacrtam preko njega, posto me je zanimao efekat koji cu dobiti, tj da li ce se lak preko njega isto svetleti (nece), ali je efekat veoma zanimljiv :). 

I wanted to try out today one more mood changing nail polish, but it was already late, so I wouldn't had time to take picture of it in a daylight of all versions. And what is better then glow in the dark nail polish for night? That's why I polished my nails with one more nails polish that I got from kkcenterhk.com - EBALAY Grass Green Translucent Glow Luminous Nail Polish (or shorter Ebalay - Glow - 009). I applied three coats, and polish didn't dried out completely even after an hour. I suppose it would be dry, if you apply coloured base coat, and then one coat of this polish.

On light, it is nothing special, but in the dark it is very nice. In the end, I managed even to draw something on it, since I wondered what effect will it cause, will nail polish on top of it glow too (it won't), but effect is really interesting :).

Sta mislite o ovim radioaktivnim noktima? Meni su bas simpaticni :).

Ako zelite ovakav lak, mozete ga naci na kkcenterhk za 9.05$ gde mozete iskoristiti i kod za 10% popust : BLGA343MA10.
