Essie: Midnight Cami + Sinful Colors: Starlight

lyra — Thu, 01 Apr 2010 03:18:56 +0000

I really must stop wearing dark polishes But I can’t get out of my skin.
So here is Essie Midnight Cami. I spiced it a little bit with adding Sinful colors Starlight
on the ring finger.
Starlight are the holo stripes glitter in clear base. It looks great on dark base
This mani is more appropriate for New Year’s eve

And here is another common spring flower. Purple Violet is in my language ‘vijolica‘
As a little girl I used to pick them for my mother.

Which is you favourite spring flower?

Ciate: Refresher + Konad

lyra — Sun, 21 Mar 2010 05:04:08 +0000

Today I’m wearing Ciate Refresher, wich is creme light blue color. The application
was a bit tricky. The first layer was not the problem, but I had truble with the second one.
The brush kept sticking on the second coat application.

Ciate Refresher:

Today I fell more creative, so I did some Konad
I didn’t know wich pattern I shoul use, so I went trough all my image plates.
I saw this patern on m69 and I realized, thad I have never used it before. So I gave it a chance
I chose the white color for stamping, but it looked so empty, so I stamped over again with dark blue color.
The polishes I used for stamping: Konad special Polish-White and Essie-Midnight Cami.

*********

Today was the last day to entering the giveaway, so in the next post I will anounce the winner!
Good luck to everyone!!

Essie-Red Nouveau + Konad

lyra — Tue, 16 Mar 2010 03:58:10 +0000

Today my post will be short, beacuse I’m verry tired and I can’t wait to go to bed and
read a book. But before that I must check a lot of e-mails wich you have sent to me for the giveaway
I really didn’t expected so many applications And I can’t wait to anounce the winner.

So yesterday I upgraded Essie-Red Nouveau with Konad pattern from image plate m65.
I didn’t want the pattern to stick out too much, so I used the dark berry red polish from
Catrice-Vibrant violet. I really like the result:

Thank you for reading and have a nice day!

Essie, Konad

Colurful Manicure

lyra — Thu, 11 Mar 2010 06:27:33 +0000

Today I was watching TV and my baby doughter(9 months) was sleeping next to me.
I was looking at her and thinking how cute she is <3
Then I looked at her little fingers and her tiny nails …
Wouldn’t it be funny if I painted them with some nice polish?

Look at them? Aren’t they cute?

Ofcourse she is too young to have her nails done, but some day, I’m sure she’ll be walking around with very pretty manicure like her mommy

She gives me inspiration for todays mani. I was thinking colorful, sweet and happy
So I painted each nail in a diferent color.

The China Glaze Up&Away colection is just perfect for this. There are lots of diferent pastel colors. So I use four polishes from that collection:

Re-Fresh Mint: is the pastel minty color, more green than blue
Lemon Fizz: pastel bright yellow
Something Sweet: pastel light pink, verry girly
Light As Air: pastel light violet, with a hint of grey
The polish on the thumb is Essie-Van D’Go, my favourite from spring 2010

One of you will get three of these polishes in my Giveaway so check it out!
There are also verry similar pink and violet polishes in the Giveaway

Essie-Van D’Go + Konad with e.l.f.-Coral

lyra — Sun, 28 Feb 2010 04:51:59 +0000

Iz Essie spomladanske kolekcije Art Of Spring 2010 mi je najbolj
všeč odtenek Van D’Go

Če njega sem oddtisnila Konad vzorček iz plate m65. Spomnim se, ko sem
bila v Konadiranju še novinka in sem hotela imet ta vzorček, vendar mi
ni najboljše uspelo, saj je bilo vse zapacano in črte so bile krive

Tokrat mi je super uspelo Za Konad sem uporabila lak znamke e.l.f.
oddtenek ki je super za Konadiranje.

My First Sponge Manicure =)

lyra — Thu, 25 Feb 2010 08:05:29 +0000

Že dolgo si ogledujem manikure narejene z ”sponge” tehniko,
ampak do sedaj še sama tega nisem probala.

Danes sem naredila dve takšni manikuri.

Prva sponge manikura je bila takšna:

China Glaze – Fairy Dust (osnova/base)
Essence – Live Forever (sponge)
Essence SYF – Caribbian Sea (sponge)

****

+ China Glaze – Fairy dust

Druga manikura je zelo podobna prvi, le z temnejšo modro konico:

China Glaze – Fairy Dust (osnova/base)
Essence – Live Forever (sponge)
Essie – Midnight Cami (sponge)

****

+ China Glaze – Fairy dust

Katera vezija vam je bolj všeč? Mi je za prvič lepo uspelo?

Ugotovila sem da spogne manikure niso najbolj zame. Na drugih mi je všeč, na
mojih nohtih pa ne. Zato moje nohte že krasi drugačna manikura

Essie Art Of Spring 2010: part 2.

lyra — Thu, 25 Feb 2010 01:19:18 +0000

V tem postu sem vam pokazala štiri lake od šestih iz Essie pomladne
kolekcije: Click!
Danes sem dobila še preostala dva: Van D’Go in Neo-Whimsical

Van D’Go: mlečni breskov-roza oddtenek z creamy finishem. Za
prekrivnost potrebuje dve plasti, Nanaša se prekrasno, kot vsi laki
iz te kolekcije.

Neo-Whimsical: Mlečno roza oddtenek z pridihom vijolične. Lepotec!
Barva je odvisna od svetlobe, na nekateri izgleda bolj vijoličen,
na drugih pa bolj roza. Barva me spominja na borovničev jogurt
Nanos je prav tako super, nanesla pa sem tri sloje laka.

Essie me z to pomladno kolekcijo res ni razočaral

ESSIE: The Art Of Spring Collection 2010 – Minies

lyra — Sat, 20 Feb 2010 07:22:50 +0000

Wiiiiii! Te kolekcije sem se zelo veselila in končno je danes prispel
paketek iz Čarodejke z mini laki

V kompletu z mini lacki so 4 oddtenki, v celotni kolekciji jih je 6.
Kompletek vsebuje oddtenke:
- Lilacism
- Pop Art Pink
- Tart Deco
- Red Nouveau

Lilacism: je pastelno lila barva, ki je bolj na modri stani. Zeloooo
lep oddtenek <3 Finish je creamy in se zelo sveti že brez nadlaka.
Na sliki sta dve plasti.

Pop Art Pink: mlečno pastelen roza oddtenek. Pri prvem sloju je skoraj neviden
oz. da le malo roza pridiha – super za francosko manikuro. Da sem dosegla
prekrivnost sem morala nanesti tri sloje, ampak še vedno izgleda lepo

Tart Deco: kremno oranžkasto-breskov oddtenek, ki spominja na barvo lososa.
Zelo posebna in čudovita barva. Ko se lak na nohtih posuši izgleda malo temnejši
kot je v steklenički. Potrebuje dve plasti.

Red Nouveau: ko sem nanšala ta oddtenek sem bila čisto šokirana! Prefekten je
v vseh pogledih. Nanaša se kot poezija in zelo je pigmentiran.
Pri prvem sloju ni niti malo lisast, zato drugi več ni potreben!
Barva je zelo lepa, tista klasična rdeča, ki jo potrebuje vsaka ženska v svoji
zbirki

Nasplošno je formula teh lahkov čista perfekcija! Super se nanašajo, končni
izdelek je prekrasen.
Barve so zelo primerne za prihajaočo pomlad: pastelni oddtenki so IN in Essie
je to upošteval
Edino rdečko malo oddstopa od celotne kolekcije, ampak rdeča je res must-have
in Red Nouveau je prekrasen
Kupila bom še manjkajoča oddtenka Neo-Whimsical in Van D’Go, da bo moja
zbirka popolna

OPI-You Don’t Konw Jacques! SUEDE

lyra — Tue, 16 Feb 2010 01:18:24 +0000

Sicer nisem največja navdušenka nad OPI laki, ampak morala sem probat
tega iz Suede kolekcije.
Gre z lak, ki vsebuje veliko shimmra z mat finishem. Končni izdelek izgleda
kot semiš

You Don’t Konw Jacques! ima v sebi pretežno toplo rjavo barvo, venar v njem
vidim tudi nekaj sive.

Nanos ni problematičen, vendar je treba bit dokaj hiter, saj se extremno hitro
suši. Prekrivnost je dosežena že z prvim slojem!

OPI-You Don’t Konw Jacques! SUEDE:

Po enem dnevu sem dodala še nadlak Essie-Good to Go! in postal je še lepši!
Shimmer z nadlakom pride še bolj do izraza. Res je nekaj posebnega =)

OPI-You Don’t Konw Jacques! SUEDE + Essie-G2G:
