OPI Shrek Forever After: Shrek-Tacular Minis

lyra — Fri, 25 Jun 2010 00:46:25 +0000

Hey!

I bought this little cute OPI Shrek minis. Mini bottles are so small, but super cute. In the package are four shades.
OPI Shrek-Tacular Minis:

What’s With The Cattitude?: it is pastel light blue. I had a little trouble with applying this one. After two coats there were still visible streaks. So I had to put the third layer on top, beside that I love the color! It’s perfect for summer.

Fiercely Fiona: I really like the name of this one And the color is also unique. It’s pastel yellow with a touch of green. There are two coats, but I should put on another one.

Rumple’s Wiggin’: funny name, but the shade is nice. Very light creme purple on the warm side. It needs two coats for full coverage.

Who The Shrek Are You?: the best name in this collection It’s bright green, just like Shrek. I don’t like this color on my nails, so I will leave it to Shrek to wear it It’s opaque in two coats.

Bye! -Lyra

Essence Fashionista Trend Edition

lyra — Fri, 02 Apr 2010 07:06:28 +0000

When I first saw this collection, my first tought was: “Finaly a collection I don’t have to buy because I don’t really like it that much!”

A few days ago I was in the drugstore and I saw the entire collection on the shelve and.. I changed my mind. I bought all the polishes

So here are the bottles of Fashionista Trend Edition:

The bottles don’t look all that special, but the colors look promissing to me.

***

So Glamorous: is medium cool cherry red. It’s just so beautiful! Another red
polish that goes great with my skin tone. It look even better than Divalicious Red.

VIP Appeal: pink color, deffinitley on the warm side. There is a little bit of coral inside.
It’s creamy and glossy.

Sundancer: Verry bright warm yellow. This one screams for Konad

Break Trough: cream magneta purple color. It reminds me of another Essence polish ‘Dress to Party’,
except this one doesn’t have shimmer in it.

I’m glad that I bought that collection, beacuse the colors are nice and the application was flawless.
Have a nice day!

China Glaze: Lemon Fizz + Konad

lyra — Fri, 26 Mar 2010 05:03:29 +0000

It’s time for spring manicure!
Finally it feels like spring spring. Before I was just waiting for
more snow. I’m not the sun person, but I like watching how the nature is waking up
and turning green.

So I dressed my nails in yellow. I chose China Glaze Lemon Fizz, beacuse this
one has the greatest formula of all the yellows I own.

Lemon Fizz is pale daffodil-yellow. It’s pastel, but there’s a little warm tone in it.

The first layer is streaky, but the second one hides all imperfections.

China Glaze-Lemon Fizz:

Then I took Konad plate m60 and with Konad Special Polish – Yellow stamped dots.
And then with Konad Special polish – Black Pearl on the ring nail I added flowers
from the same plate.

I forgot that g2g smudges dark Konad polishes so the flowers are not perfect :/
But anyway, I think it still looks good

I hope tomorrow will be a sunny day, so that I can take some spring flower photos
So, everyone enjoy the spring time

Have a nice springy day!
*LYRA*

ORLY Sweet Colection for Spring 2010

lyra — Wed, 24 Mar 2010 06:27:28 +0000

Hello everyone!!

Today I was so happy, beacuse I got my first Orly polishes.
For the first time I decided to buy the entire Sweet Colection, beacuse latley
i really like creme pastel colors.

Each of these polishes came with a mini lipgloss in a matching color and each one
smels different too

As a first time Orly user I must tell you that I’m impresed.
The formula is really good, I had trouble only with one shade, but I manage it.

I really like the colors in that collection. I think it goes right after China Glaze’s
Up & Away. This is the second one, the third one is from Essie.

****

Lemonade: Lemonade is light pastel yellow. When I put it on my nails, it reminds me of China Glaze-Lemon Fizz.
I will do the comparison of all the yellows I own soon.
I have a little trouble with this one, beacuse it’s a little bit sticky and streaky.
This is after two coats.

Cotton Candy:Cotton candy is a light peachy pink. Verry cute color. Aplication was nice and smooth.
This is after two coats.

Pixy Stix:Pixy Stick is bright medium pink creme. The formula of this one is fabolous! It was
like a butter. This is also after two coats.

Lollipop:Lollipop is creme lavender color wit a splash of pink. This one is very pigmented and I
could almost have gotten away with one coat, but I used two.

Gumdrop:Gumdrop is medium turqoise creme. This one isn’t minty. It’s more green than blue.
This is after two coats.

Snowcone:Snowcone is really nice cornflower blue creme. I like this one the most. This one is very opaque
and it need only one coat! And it’s not streaky at all.

Wich one is your favorite?

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

Essence: Cute as Hell (TE) part 2.

lyra — Mon, 22 Feb 2010 21:51:37 +0000

Nadaljevanje prejšnjega posta

Danes sem dobila še preostala dva laka iz Cute As hell, za konec pa
sem poslikala še gloss iz omejene kolekcije, oddtenek Bad Girl.

Not Just Cute: je pastelno roza barve. Nanašanje je bilo dokaj težavno,
saj je še po dveh nanosih bil progast, zato je bila tretja plast nujna.

Essence-Not Just Cute:

Naughty But Nice: pastelno svetlo rumen oddtenek, ki pa presenetljivo paše
na moje roke =) Barva tega laka je zelo primerna za prihajajočo pomlad.
Vsekakor super podlaga za Konad. Nanos je prav tako malce težaven,
vendar drugi sloj laka vse popravi

Essence-Naughty But Nice:

Gasilska slika vseh lakov v stekleničkah:

Za konec pa še obljubljen Lip-gloss Bad Girl. Gre za najsvetlejši oddtenek
iz te kolekcije. Ni močno obarvan, ampak da ustnicam lep svetlo roza sijaj.
Vsebuje tudi droben shimmer, ki pa je lepo spojen s samim glossom.
Je ravno prav gost, po ustnicah se lepo razmaže.

Ciate-Lemon Sherbet + Konad

lyra — Fri, 19 Feb 2010 08:10:22 +0000

Lemon Sherbet je prelep pastelno svetlo rumen oddtenek.

Edini minus je nanašanje, ker je res zelo zelo gost.
Prvi sloj sem nanesla brez problema, ker pa je bil lisast sem morala
nanesti še enega.
Pri drugem sloju sem imela velike težave, ampak mi je nekako uspelo

Ciate-Lemon Sherbet:

Rumenkotu sem dodala še Konad vzorček iz plate m65, uporabila pa sem
lak Ciate-Golden Globe.

Ciate, Konad

ESSIE – Shorty pants + Konad

lyra — Mon, 07 Dec 2009 07:53:57 +0000

Ta lakec sem kupila izključno zaradi vzorčka na konad plati m10
Enostavno si tega vzorčka ne znam predstavljati na drugi barvi.

Tale Essie lakec je živo rumene barve … v bistvu je to rumena v pravem pomenu besede
To je barva smajlija-
Ima tudi zelo nagajivo ime – Shorty pants. Meni se sliši zelo poletno

Za polno prekrivnost sta bila potrebna 2 sloja, nanaša se brez problema. O obstojnosti ne morem
govoriti saj sem imela to manikuro le en dan

Konad sem naredila z črnim Konad special polish, vzorčki pa so iz plate m10.
Ta medvedek je takšen srček <3
