Red all the way

Most of the girls reach out for red nail polish for Christmas. I do too and if I have a nail art in mind, I would choose a combination that includes red. What can I say - red totally screams 'Christmas'! So today I have 3 nail polishes to show you. Not all 3 of them are necessarily exactly red, but they fit perfectly for this Christmas time.

Većina cura poseže za crvenim lakićima za Božić. I ja isto, a ako imam na umu neki nail art, izabrala bih kombinaciju koja uključuje crvenu. A što da vam kažem - crveno totalno vrišti 'Božić'! I tako vam danas imam za pokazati 3 lakića. Nisu sva tri nužno točno crvena, ali savršeno pašu uz ovo božićno vrijeme. 

Misslyn - Vanilla cream

If you are into nice light shades, you might be interested in this one. Misslyn Vanilla cream is shade suitable for every occasion, and for every age. I highly recommend it even for beautiful touch in french manicures, in one layer.

Ako volite svjetlije nijanse, mogli bi biti zainteresirani i za ovu. Misslyn Vanilla cream je nijansa pogodna za svaku priliku i svaku životnu dob. Preporučujem također jedan sloj ovog laka preko francuske manikure kako bi ju dodatno naglasili.

Flormar 431 in Blue

Hi dears!

I know it's not summer anymore, but I like blue polishes in every season. This is no exception.
Flormar 431 is beautiful blue, not too dark, or too bright. After gorgeous blue, the thing I like the most about this polish is it's shimmer texture that makes it look so deep, summery and special.
Pictures are slightly brighter than this polish looks in real life.

Pozdrav dragi moji!
Znam da više nije ljeto no obožavam plave lakove tijekom svakog godišnjeg doba. Naravno da ni ovaj nije iznimka.
Flormar 431 je prekrasna plava boja, niti previše tamna ni svijetla. Nakon plave, ono što mi je najdraže u vezi ovog laka je shimmerasta tekstura zbog kojeg boja djeluje duboko, ljetno i posebno.
Slike su ispale nešto svjetlije nego što je u stvarnosti, pa imajte i to na umu.

Essie - Rock star skinny

Yes, I'm crazy about vamp colored polishes! That's why I probably have so many. And this is another prove for that. Essie - Rock star skinny is beautiful dark red, vamp color that will lift up any outfit. It's a deep, chocolate cherry burgundy red. It's dark, but not so dark you can't still see that it's a deep, deep red.
Also, if you care for time of year when choosing your nail polish, this one is perfect for autumn, but also good for winter.
To bad it is part of Essie LE shades, it will be HTF soon, if not already... 

Oh da, ja sam luda za vamp lakovima za nokte! Zato ih vjerojatno i imam toliko. A ovo je još jedan dokaz. Essie - Rock star skinny je krasna tamno crvena vamp boja koja će podići svaku odjevnu kombinaciju. Boja je duboka kombinacija vruće čokolade, višanja i finog burgundca. Meni pri ovom opisu već rastu zazubice, a vama? :) Iako je tamna, još uvijek je dovoljno "nježno" tamna da možete doživjeti dubinu te crvene u potpunosti.
Ako pratite godišnja doba za kombinaciju manikura, ovaj lak će se odlično uklopiti u jesenje kombinacije, a dobar je i sa zimskima.
Šteta što je dio ograničene serije (LE) Essija, tako da će uskoro doći na listu onih koji se teško pronalaze...

Striped manicures

Hi girls ! :) Last few days I'm all in the pastels! I know it's December and that everybody have began with Christmas manicures, but I've never been that kind of a girl so if I'll do something related to Christmas, then it will really be before Christmas and will generally be a parade of red, glitter, a snowman, Santa Claus and Rudolph. Until that, I want to show you what I've currently had on my mind . 

Hej, ljudi! :) Zadnjih dana sam sva u pastelnom! Znam da je 12. mjesec i da su svi već lagano počeli s božićnim manikurama, no ja nikada nisam bila taj đir i ako ću napraviti nešto božićno, onda će to stvarno biti pred Božić i uglavnom će to biti parada crvene, šljokica, snješka, Djeda Mraza i obavezno Rudolfa. Dok do toga ne dođe, želim vam pokazati što mi je trenutno na pameti.

I've drastically trimmed my nails because they were too long for my taste, and then this circus manicures do not have the same charm. I've also struggled with cuticles that were total disaster. I've changed tires given that snow appeared and the old tires together with the wheels needed to be washed and prepared for spring. Of course problem was pushing hands in soapy water at a temperature of 0°C. Oh, what a nightmare! :( To make the long story short, here's the manicure.

Nokte sam drastično skresala jer su mi za moj ukus postali već predugi, a onda mi na njima ovakve cirkus manikure nemaju istu čar. Mučila sam se i s kožicom koja je totalna katastrofa. Mijenjala sam gume obzirom da nam se i snijeg ukazao pa je stare skupa s felgama trebalo oprati i spremiti za proljeće. Naravno da je u pitanju bilo guranje ruku u vodu s deterdžentom na temperaturi od oko 0 stupnjeva. Ajme, zla! :( Da ne duljim previše, evo manikura:

Green girl kozmetika

*only in Croatian

Pozdrav svima!

Oprostite što se dugo nisam javljala, no danas vam donosim opširne recenzije proizvoda od Green Girl (u nastavku: GG) kozmetike koju možete pogledati na ovom linku.

Proizvode koje recenziram koristila sam 4 mjeseca da vam mogu reći mišljenje s određenim iskustvom. Ove slike su napravljene ranije, no proizvodi su i za vrijeme slikanja bili već dijelom potrošeni, pa da se ne uplašite slika :)

Prvi proizvod koji ću vam predstaviti je krema za ruke Touching hands.

Moja koža ruku je pomalo suha i vrlo osjetljiva te je svakodnevno tretiram nekim kremama jer mi u protivnim postane crvena ili počne pucati, pogotovo ako zapuše hladni vjetar. Ova krema odlično odgovara mojim rukama u periodu u kojem sam ju koristila (jesen).

Krema je vrlo bogata i njegujuća. Tekstura je mrvicu masnija, no bez obzira na to jako se brzo upija. Možda vam preko ljeta ne bi odgovarala, no za hladnije mjesece kad vam treba bogatija njega za kožu vječito izloženih ruku, savjetujem da pogledate i ovu divnu kremu. Meni je miris vrlo zimskog ugođaja, koji ide izvrsno uz teksturu kreme. Obzirom da nisam mogla prepoznati o čemu se radi, upitala sam GG i dobila odgovor da je to prirodan miris egzotičnih cvjetova. Dolazi zapakirano u klasičnu plastičnu tubu.

Sastav: hidrolat ruže, voda, biljno ulje suncokret, biljno ulje makadamija, biljno ulje kokos, emulgator na bazi masline, dekspantenol, glicerol, aloa vera gel, prirodni miris i prirodni konzervans. 

Čuvanje: Može se čuvati van hladnjaka, no ako se čuva u hladnjaku traje duže.

Trajanje: 3 mjeseca BEZ čuvanja u hladnjaku.

Cijena: Napravljena je posebno za moju recenziju, nije dio kataloga inače pa vam zato ni ne znam reći cijenu. Bez obzira na to, vjerujem da možete zamoliti Green girl da je napravi i vama :)

New untrieds

Hi, guys! These days I continue with my mission - try as many as possible of my untried nail polishes. So today I have 5 brand new polishes for you. And right from the start, today I won't choose my favorite one because I just love them all. To tell you the truth, I was a bit surprised how much beautys I have in my stash so I'm looking forward to the next episode of my mission. :)

Bok, ljudi! Ovih dana nastavljam svoju misiju - isprobati što je više moguće svojih neisprobanih lakića. Tako danas imam 5 potpuno novih lakića za vas. I odmah na početku, danas neću favorizirati niti jednoga jer ih jednostavno volim sve. Iskreno da vam kažem, bila sam malo iznenađena koliko divota imam u svojoj zbirci pa se radujem sljedećoj epizodi ove moje misije. :) 

My new babies :)

Hi girls! It has past a lot of time since I was here. First of all I had an injury of my hand (dexterity is my middle name :D) so I couldn`t polish my nails. Then exams and entries started on my university and all that took me a lot of time. But I didn´t forget to pay attention on my nail polishes. Today I want to show you 4 new babies in my collection :)
 
Bok cure! Stvarno me dugo, dugo nije bilo. Prvo sam imala neku ozljedicu ruke (inače spretnost mi je drugo ime :D) pa nisam mogla lakirati nokte. Zatim su počeli i ispiti na faksu, pa upisi i to se sve dobrano odužilo. Ali za to vrijeme nisam zaboravila na lakiće. Danas vam želim pokazati 4 nova malca u mojoj kolekciji :)

Lilac seduction

Well, seduction - my ass! :( I guess I can't always be thrilled about nail polishes, so today I have one big disappointment for you. Well said! :) It's a big disappointment for me and that's my way to say:"Don't buy it!". Actually, I think it's discontinued so you can't even buy it anymore - luckily for you!

E pa zavođenje - malo sutra! :( Pretpostavljam da ne mogu uvijek biti oduševljena lakićima pa tako danas za vas imam jedno veliko razočaranje. Dobro rečeno! :) Veliko je razočaranje za mene i to je moj način da vam kažem:"Nemojte ga kupovati!" Zapravo, mislim da više nije ni u prodaji pa ga više ne možete ni kupiti - srećom!

Deborah - 62 Blooming delight

This beautiful pink polish is from Deborah Prêt-à-porter collection. I've already reviewed Sun power polish from this collection here. I like both color and quality of the polish, but I must say the bottle is quite small, only 4,5mL. Brush is regularly sized, and I love applying polish with it, unlike with OPI very little brush in very little polish when we are talking about mini version.

Deborah Blooming delight je krasna roza boja iz Prêt-à-porter kolekcije. Iz te kolekcije sam već napravila recenziju Sun power nijanse koju možete pročitati ovdje. Kod ovog laka sviđa mi se i boja i kvaliteta, ali količina laka je mala, samo 4,5mL. Bez obzira na to, četkica je regularne veličine, za razliku od OPI minića koji dolaze s mini četkicom zbog čega ih je teže nanositi.

Hell yeah, Dotted!

Hi, everyone! It's been a while since last time... What can I say, I love autumn and I enjoyed it beeing outside to the fullest! I even traveled to the coast! Well if someone knows how to, that's me! :)

Bok svima! Prošlo je dosta vremena od prošlog puta... Što da vam kažem, volim jesen i maksimalno sam uživala boraveći vani! Čak sam putovala i na obalu! Ako netko zna kako, onda sam to ja! :)

Flormar 392 in holo silver

Hi!
Sorry for not writing this long, but my job occupies me too much so I've cut my blogging a bit. That is not permanent, so we will be hearing on a regular base again hopefully soon :)
As a apology, today I'm presenting you the most famous Flomar polish that is really hard to get here in Croatia, the one and only: Flormar 392 holo!

Pozdrav!
Žao mi je što nisam pisala neko vrijeme, no zbog posla sam morala smanjiti pisanje. To bi se trebalo uskoro promijeniti, zato vas molim za strpljenje :)
Kao ispriku, donosim vam najpoznatiji lak iz Flormar kolekcije koji se vrlo teško nabavlja jer je rasprodan, predstavljam vam: Flormar 392 holo!

Cupcake manicure

I have a quick post for you today. I wasn't plannig on doing it but since the reactions were that good, why not share with all of you overhere? So, my dear mom was giving me the speach how it would be nice if I made some cookies or cake (whatever :/) for the weekend. I say dear because she knows that I am a totally antitalent for it. I mean I cook everything, simple and complicated and it turns up awesome but when it comes to cookies, brownies or cakes... OMG, I'm sick already! :D If I decide to make a cake for someones birthday, that means I really love him a lot (and I went a little crazy making decision). :D

Danas za vas imam brzinski post. Nisam ga planirala pisati, ali obzirom da su reakcije bile tako dobre, zašto to ne podijeliti sa svima vama ovdje? Znači, moja draga mama mi je držala prodiku kako bi bilo lijepo kada bih i ja jednom napravila neke keksiće ili kolač (što god :/) za vikend. Kažem draga jer zna da sam totalni antitalent za to. Mislim, sve kuham - jednostavno i komplicirano i ispadne sjajno, ali kada se radi o kolačima, keksima ili tortama... Ajme majko, već mi je loše! :D Ako odlučim napraviti tortu nekome za rođendan, to znači da ga stvarno jako volim (i da sam malo sišla s uma kada sam odlučivala). :D

Compliments all the way

Hi guys! Remember my decision not to buy new polishes until I try the most bottles of my untrieds, or until the end of the year? Well, it's not that easy anymore stick with it. Seeing all the nail bloggers reviewing and swatching the new collections makes me mad. :) But I won't give up and when you see the three nail polishes that I'm showing you today, you'll see why! I found these polishes in one of my nail polish boxes. To tell you the truth, I'm surprised how gorgeous they turned up and I was neglecting them. Shame on me! I got so many compliments wearing them that I couldn't belive. I'm talking about Essence 107 Naughty and pink, Flormar GL10 and Catrice 860 Browno Mars.

Bok, ljudi! Sjećate se moje odluke da neću kupovati nove lakiće dok ne isprobam većinu neisprobanih ili do kraja godine? E pa nije više tako lako držati se toga. Kad vidim druge nail blogerice kako recenziraju i swatchaju nove kolekcije, poludim. :) Ali neću odustati, a kada vidite ova tri lakića koja ću vam danas pokazati, vidjet ćete i zašto! Našla sam ove lakiće u jednoj od svojih kutija s lakićima. Iskreno, iznenađena sam kako su predivno ispali, a ja sam ih zanemarivala. Ma sram me bilo! Toliko sam komplimenata dobila kad sam ih nalakirala, da nisam mogla vjerovati. Govorim o Essence 107 Naughty and pink, Floramr GL10 i Catrice 860 Browno Mars.

Deborah - 06 Nude crackle

Trends come and go, that is the way of fashion. Of course, nails and manicure too have it's trends that many womans like to discover and follow. Crackle polish is for veterans in polish world old trend, but I must say that many of my girl friends still doesn't know what it its. So if you are one of them, just look at the pictures and it will become cristaly clear with this nude crackle polish by Deborah. And if you are not, well, interesting looking manicure this way :)

Trendovi u modi dolaze i prolaze, a ni lakovi nisu izuzetak. Pucajući lakovi su za nas veteranke već stari trend, ali moram reći da mnoge moje prijateljice ne znaju što je to. Pa ako ste se našle u opisu, pogledajte sljedeće slike bež Deborah pucajućeg laka i postat će vam kristalno jasno o čemu se radi. A ako znate što je to, pa zanimljivih manikura nikad dosta za pogledati, zar ne? :)

Essie - Buy me a cameo

Essie is again on my repertoire. There was a sale in a farmacy, so I went and choose from many beautiful colors most of the Essie polishes that I own today. Even with only classic color selection they had, and fact that I prefer non classic colors, I was dazzled with great selection of Essie classics they've had. Colors was simply stunning.
And in that selection I've chosen Essie Buy me a cameo that I'm reviewing for you today.

I opet Essie na mom repertoaru. Evo i malo priče iza toga - zašto toliko Essie. 
U jednoj ljekarni sam naišla na popust, pa sam ušla i iz njihove velike kolekcije sam odabrala većinu Essie lakova koje danas posjedujem. Čak i sa činjenicom da su imali samo klasične boje lakova i time što ja zapravo preferiram neobičnije boje, bila sam zapanjena izborom klasika koje su imali. Boje su bile prekrasne. 
U toj selekciji sam odabrala i Essie Buy me a cameo koji vam predstavljam danas.

Stripes - take one

Hi all!
So, I've been seeing stripe manis all over the internet for a while now, loved them, and thought it was time to try to do something myself. I'm not over the moon with the outcome, but we can say this mani was just the 'test drive' and hope it will get better with practice. :)
Anyway, here it is.

Pozdrav!
Već neko vrijeme po netu viđam manikure s trakicama, stvarno mi se dopadaju, pa sam si naručila trakice s Ebaya i odlučila se malo igrati s njima. Moram priznati da nisam oduševljena prvim pokušajem, ali prvi se mačići u vodu bacaju (lol), pa se nadam da će svaka slijedeća manikura biti urednija i ljepša.
U svakom slučaju, povirite i procijenite valja li.

My very first skittlette manicure

This kind of manicure bacame very popular lately. I hesitated for a while now to do something like that because I always had something else in mind and I was sure that other girls can do it whey better than me. Sometimes I have trouble deciding what nail polish to wear and I can't imagine picking three or four of them at once. All these colors should also look awesome together and that's a bit too much for me. But this time I decided to break the ice and to do my very first skittlette manicure. Theme nails contest made me. :)

Ovakav tip manikure je postao vrlo popularan u posljednje vrijeme. Dugo sam oklijevala napraviti nešto takvo jer sam uvijek imala nešto drugo na pameti, a i bila sam sigurna da druge cure to mogu napraviti puno bolje od mene. Katkad imam problem odlučiti koji lakić ću nalakirati i ne mogu zamisliti da odlučujem odjednom o 3 ili 4 boje koje uz to još trebaju izvrsno izgledati skupa. To je ipak malo previše za mene, ali ovaj put sam odlučila probiti led i napraviti svoju prvu skittlette manikuru. Natjerao me natječaj za tematske nokte. :)

Essie - Midnight Cami

Hi again!

Here in Croatia we feel autumn comming with all this rain and chill outside. Nails are following that picture in dark blue way. Today I'm presenting you beautiful midnight blue from Essie.

Pozdrav!

Vani se osjeća jesen zbog kiše koja je stigla skupa s hladnoćom. Također i moji nokti slijede tu sliku na jedan tamnoplavi način. Danas vam predstavljam prekrasno ponoćno plavu od Essie.

Golden Rose Jolly Jewels 116

Here's the thing: since I saw the Jolly Jewels collection from Golden Rose, I knew I won't stop 'till I get it. Not necessarily the whole collection, but the most poslihes - yup. :) I think not all shades are available in Croatia but there's enough. The bottle of these polishes costs 4,65 euros, which is a bit too much for me because I'm not used to spend that much money on only one nail poslih since my stash counts over 260 polishes and more than 60 of them I still haven't tried. There's also this: it wasn't that big of a problem the price of only one bottle, the problem was that I couldn't decide what shade to buy. I like them all and that is whey too expensive. :) I guess this is the problem all polishaholics face once and after that once in a while. :)

Ovako stvari stoje: čim sam vidjela kolekciju Jolly Jewels od Golden Rosea, znala sam da neću stati dok je ne budem imala. Ne nužno cijelu kolekciju, ali većinu lakića - itekako. :) Mislim da u Hrvatskoj nisu dostupne sve nijanse, ali ima ih dovoljno. Bočica ovih lakića stoji 35 kn, što je malo previše za mene jer nisam navikla trošiti toliko novca na samo jedan lakić obzirom da moja zaliha broji preko 260 komada, a više od 60 njih još nisam stigla niti isprobati. A tu je i ono gore! :) Čak bih se i pomirila s cijenom da problem nije bio taj što ja nisam mogla odlučiti koju nijansu da kupim. Sve mi se sviđaju, a to je ipak preskupo. :) Pretpostavljam da je to problem s kojem se jednom suče svi lakićmanijaci, a nakon toga svako malo. :)

Crazy studs or you name it

Hi everyone! I think it was about time to come back... My batteries are charged and I'm ready for some ass kicking manicures. In fact I got sweet one for you today. I just had to show you guys my new studs and a nail polish that everyone talked about this summer. This freak overhere couldn't decide what to show first so it had to be both right away. Yup, It's my fault, but I couldn't wait! Now I have a trashy manicure, but I'm happy because the world saw my new crazy studs and this gorgeous nail polish.

Bok svima! Mislim da je bilo i vrijeme da se vratim natrag... Moje su baterije napunjene i spremna sam rasturiti manikurama. Zapravo i danas imam jednu slatku za vas. Jednostavno sam vam morala pokazati moje nove zakovice i lakić o kojem su svi pričali ovo ljeto. Ovaj freak ovdje nije mogao odlučiti što da vam prvo pokaže pa sam morala oboje odjednom. Da, sama sam si kriva, ali nisam mogla čekati! Sada imam treš-manikuru, ali sretna sam jer je svijet vidio moje nove lude zakovice i ovaj predivan lakić.

Misslyn - Heat wave

Hi!

Summer is getting to an end, and autumn is comming. I'm really not happy about that, since tons of my summer clothes will wait until next year to bright up days...
But autumn polishes? I love those :) And perfect example is this Misslyn Heat wave.

Pozdrav!

Ljeto nam se bliži kraju, a jesen stiže. Nisam baš sretna zbog tog jer imam hrpu ljetne odjeće koju volim nositi, a koja sada mora čamiti na dnu ormara do sljedeće godine...
Ali ako me pitate što mislim o jesenskim lakovima? Obožavam ih! Savršen primjer jednog ću vam upravo predstaviti - Misslyn Heat wave.

Summertime madness

Hi darlings!
It's been a while, I know. But, my nails weren't in good shape this summer, and since I was working non stop, I didn't have time to do any nail art. In this post, I'll show you some snapshots of the manis I had on my nails throughout the summer. Now I'm back to my regular schedule, so I'll be posting more often.

Bok ljepotice drage!
Dugo se nismo čuli, znam. Međutim, moji su nokti bili u groznom stanju, pucali su često, ruke su mi bile presuhe, a kako sam non stop radila (65 dana bez pauze :D ), nisam imala vremena za nail art. U ovom ću vam postu pokazati fotkice manikura koje sam imala na noktima ovo ljeto. Također, možete očekivati redovitije postanje od mene sad kad sam se vratila na svoj standardni raspored.

Pupa - L104 Silver

I've been owing you review of Pupa L104 Silver since I've posted nail art with it here. I really like how silver polishes look on my nails, and I must say that other great thing about them is the same as with your silver jewlery - it goes well with every combination.

Dužna sam vam recenziju ovog laka još otkad sam postala nail art sa njim kao bazom u ovom postu. Stvarno mi se sviđa kako srebrni lakovi izgledaju na mojim noktima, a moram reći da ima još jedna super strana srebrnih lakova. Naime, kao i srebrni nakit, srebrni lakovi odgovaraju na svaku kombinaciju.

Flormar 46 in Pool blue

I'm big fan of blue color and Flormar polish lover, so this nail polish fulfills all of my expectations. It is really great shade of blue, I've been wearing it to swimming pool and it matched perfectly!

Obožavam plavu boju i Flormar lakove, tako da ovaj lak ispunjava sva moja očekivanja. Zaista je divne boje, nosila sam ga na bazen i totalno je odgovarao okruženju :)

Max factor - Pretty in pink

Summer has not come to it's end, but it's going on a while, so why not change your strong colored shades with something else that is also great for summer but brings another dose of freshness to your usual manicure? This shade might just be the one for that.
Max Factor's Pretty in pink is not really pink, but fresh pastel peach color.

Ljeto još nije završilo, no toliko dugo traje da bi dobro došle promjene da ga malo osvježe. Što kažete na promjenu jakih boja u neku svježiju nijansu? Ovaj lak bi baš mogao biti to što će donijeti tu promjenu, sitnu ali bitnu :)
Max Factor-ov Pretty in pink lak zapravo nije roze boje, kako bi po imenu zaključili. Boja ovog laka je nježna pastelna breskva.

I just came to say hello... (and other stuff :D), part II

So, hello again! Hope you're all swimming somewhere in the sea and in the meanwhile siping ice coffee in deep shadows. Honestly, I don't know for you guys, but I can't take it anymore. I feel like a caveman (cavegirl actually :D) beeing stuck in the house all day long. It's been 4 days that I haven't got out of the house before dark and I've had enough! No summer is going to ruin my vacation! :) In few days I'll pack my bags again. The destination is the sea again and Bosnia (and there's cold at night :D). But before I go, I owe you the second part of manicures and polishes that I wore for the past month. Last time I presented you 4 nail polishes: Flormar Supershine 007, Rimmel 620 How do you lilac it?, Gabrini Neon N07 and Maybelline Colorama 96 Party blue. It's time for the next 4!

Još jednom vas pozdravljam! Nadam se da svi plivate negdje na moru, a u međuvremenu pijuckate ledenu kavu u dubokoj hladovini. Iskreno, ne znam za vas, ali ja više ne mogu. Osjećam se kao špiljski čovjek (zapravo špiljska cura :D) ovako zatvorena u kuću cijeli dan. Prošla su 4 dana otkako nisam izašla iz kuće prije mraka i dosta mi je! Neće meni jedno ljeto pokvariti godišnji odmor! :) Za par dana ponovno pakujem kofer. Odredište je opet more i Bosna (a tamo je noću hladno, ksssssss :D). Ali, prije nego odem, dugujem vam drugi dio manikura i lakića koje sam nosila proteklih mjesec dana. Posljednji put sam vam pokazala 4 lakića za nokte: Flormar Supershine 007, Rimmel 620 How do you lilac it?, Gabrini Neon N02 i Maybelline Colorama 96 Party blue. Vrijeme je za sljedeća 4!

I just came to say hello... (and other stuff :D), part I

So, hello everyone! How you're doing? :) Long time no see (or in this case read)! I haven't posted for a while now for several reasons! I was on my vacation at sea and had no contact with anybody because of some technical difficulties. Let's say my new 4 days old mobile phone crashed and I lost all my numbers and pictures and everything. Disaster, I know! :/ Thank god, my camera didn't disappoint me so I managed to take photos of manicures that I wore during my absence and these manicures I'm bringing you today.

Pa pozdrav svima! Kako ste? Dugo se nismo vidjeli (ili u ovom slučaju čitali)! Nisam postala neko vrijeme iz različitih razloga! Bila sam na odmoru na moru i nisam imala kontakt ni sa kim zbog nekih tehničkih poteškoća. Recimo da mi je novi, 4 dana star mobitel krepao (kako ja to stručno volim reći :D) i izgubila sam sve brojeve i fotke i sve. Katastrofa, znam! :/ Hvala Bogu, fotić me nije razočarao pa sam uspjela poslikati manikure koje sam nosila tokom odsutnosti i te vam manikure donosim danas.

My favourite nail polishes

Each of us has its favourite nail polishes. Those are polishes which we wear either in daily activities or in some special occasions. I also have my 10 favourite polishes and I wouldn`t change them for anything in the world.

Svatko od nas ima svoje najdraže lakove. To su lakovi koje nosimo bilo u svakodnevnim aktivnostima bilo u nekim svečanim prigodama. Tako i ja imam svojih 10 najdražih lakova koje ne bih mijenjala :)

Ugliest challenge - Flormar U22

Hi again! This challenge is really weird for me, because I would never say for any of my polish that it is ugly. But I've chosen Flormar U22 because I don't feel the best wearing polish through which you can see my nail tips. So, today I'm presenting you this polish that looks wonderful on top of some other polish, but on my bare nails, it looks worse :)

Pozdrav! Ovaj izazov je vrlo neobičan za mene jer ne bih nikad za neki od mojih lakova rekla da je ružan. Ali ipak ću vam pokazati Flormar U22 jer mi se ne sviđa kako moji nokti izgledaju kada nanesem neki lak kroz koji mi se još uvijek vide vrhovi noktiju. Tako da vam prezentiram ovaj lak koji izgleda zaista divno preko nekog drugog laka, no nanesen sam je blah :)

Flormar pretty P25

Helooo! Summer and heat took place so I decided to put some nail polish that remind me on summer! Untill now I tried to cheat myself with "winter" manicures but it doesn`t have sense anymore. I really don`t like summer, heat, impossibility of normal life, summer studying and also bubbles on my manicured nails. Disaster! So I paint my nails under air conditioner! :)) And I did it.
Today I want to show you this beauty- Flormar pretty shade- P25.

Boook! Ljeto i vrućine su uzele maha pa reko da napokon namažem neki ljetni lak! Dosada sam se pokušavala zavarati s nekim "zimskim" manikurama ali to više nema smisla. Stvarno ne volim ljeto, vrućine, nemogućnost normalnog funkcioniranja, ljetno učenje ali i mjehuriće na nalakiranim noktima. Katastrofa! Tako da trenutno nokte lakiram pod klimom! :)) I ide nekako. 
Danas bih vam htjela pokazati ovog ljepotanka- Flormar pretty u nijansi P25.

Most expensive challenge - OPI Here Today ... Aragon Tomorrow

My most expensive polishes are definitely O.P.I.'s. Here in Croatia they cost around 18$, so I always buy them in some other way, most oftenly by Ebay. For this challenge I've choosen dark green beauty OPI Here Today ... Aragon Tomorrow. LOTR, anyone? :)

Najskuplji lakovi koje posjedujem su marke O.P.I. Ovdje u Hrvatskoj se mogu naći u Mulleru, Bipi i još ponegdje, a cijena im je vrtoglavih 100kn. Zato ih ne kupujem na taj način, nego najčešće posegnem za Ebayom. Za ovaj izazov odabrala sam ovog tamnozelenog ljepotana OPI Here Today ... Aragon Tomorrow. Mene je odmah podsjetilo na LOTR :)

Flormar Selection 14 in Pearl pink

This is another from my Flormar collection. Flormar 14 is pearl pink that leans towards white. It's very sophisticated, which makes it suitable for people of all ages, and all type of jobs. Yes, it is a great business color, but even can be worn on weddings!

Evo recenzije još jednog laka iz moje Flormar kolekcije. Flormar 14 je biserno roze boje koja graniči s biserno bijelom. Boja je dovoljno klasična da ga mogu nositi ljudi od 8 do 80 godina, prikladan je čak i za sve poslove. To je klasik koji se može nositi na posao, ali i na vjenčanje, čak i vlastito!

Deborah - Shine Tech 71 in metallic green

How is your summer going on? Well, this polish is great for summer, you'll definitely want to have it! I own few of Deborah polishes, and what I love the most about them is that they are produced in many different textures: cream, metallic, cracke, chrome, matte, ... This one is beautiful metallic green, and it's not just my option. I've earned many compliments based on it :)

Kako ide vaše ljeto? Ovaj lak je baš pravi ljetni, definitivno ćete ga poželjeti za sebe! Imam nekoliko Deborah lakova, a u svezi njih mi se najviše sviđa što imaju veliki izbor tekstura: kremasti, metalik, pucajući (crackle), kromirani, mat, ... Lak koji danas recenziram je prekrasne metalik zelene boje, a oduševljenje nije samo moje. Naime, dobila sam hrpu komplimenata za taj lakić :)

Cheapest challenge - Moment Fluor 05

 For the cheapest challenge I must present this wonderful blue polish from Offertissima - Moment 05. I payed around 1,5$ for it and I'm really pleased with it's color and quality!

Ovotjedni izazov je postati manikuru s najjeftinijim lakom. Izabrala sam ovaj divni plavi Moment kupljen u Offertisimi za samo 9kn! Oduševljena sam bojom i kvalitetom za te novce te ga svakako preporučam.

Essie - Berry hard

Hi! Today I will present you my favorite vamp(y) colored polish - Essie Berry hard.This is deep vine color with high gloss finish. It's a deep, true berry, like a plump, ripe berry just waiting to burst! With this polish your nails will look very sexy and sophisticated.

Pozdrav! Danas vam predstavljam svoj najdraži vamp lak - Essie Berry hard. Lak je boje vina s vrlo visokim sjajem. Boja je duboka, boja zrele bobice koja samo čeka da prsne! Sa ovim lakom svačiji nokti izgledaju elegantnije, čak i sexy.

Anny - Bloody red news

How are you spending this weekend? Weather here in Croatia is beautiful, some field trip might be nice. But don't forget to polish your nails nicely before you go :)

I really recommend this color - Anny - Bloody red news. It is beautiful deep vine red color that looks very elegant and classy. I've upgraded it with gold glitter Flormar 395, and it became great even as a holiday combination.

Kako provodite ovaj vikend? Ovdje je vrijeme divno, neki izlet bi odgovarao odlično. Nemojte samo zaboraviti nalakirati nokte prije nego što krenete :)

Ako nemate ideje što bih nalakirale, preporučam vam Anny - Bloody red news. Nijansa je divna i duboka, boja crvenog vina koja izgleda vrlo elegantno. Manikuru sam nadogradila sam Flormarom broj 395, tj. zlatnim šljokicama. S nadogradnjom izgleda odlično i kao blagdanska manikura.

Newest challenge - Ados 577

Recently Kozmo drugstore got new nail polish brand - Ados, Spanish brand. When I've heard they have so many shades, I got eager to choose one and try it out. I've picked this beautiful blue Ados 577 and I must admit is has very good quality for also a nice price.

Nedavno je Kozmo dobio novi brand lakova - Ados, španjolski brand. Čim sam čula da imaju hrpu nijansi, otišla sam i izabrala si ovu divnu plavu Ados 577. Zaista imaju pregršt nijansi :) Ova nijansa koju sam isprobala je zaista vrlo dobre kvalitete, što mi je jako drago jer i cijena je povoljna - 20kn.

Just another manic french tip manicure

Do you think that crazy colorful manicures look better on shorter nails? I do lately. Manicures that contain more than 3 or even 2 colors are just too much on longer nails. On short nails you can do basically everything and it'll look cute. Since my nails are still long I wanted to use that because, after this they're going down. :)

Mislite li da lude šarene manikure bolje izgledaju na kraćim noktima? U posljednje vrijeme ja da. Manikure koje imaju više od 3 ili čak 2 boje su mi jednostavno previše na dužim noktima. Na kratkim noktima zapravo možete napraviti sve i izgledat će slatko. Obzirom da su mi nokti još uvijek dugi, htjela sam to iskoristiti jer nakon ovoga odoše! :)

Gabrini Matte Nails 397

Hello! Here I am after a long time! I was in a huge rush so I didn`t paint my nails for a long time (shame on me) :D I really felt desire for nail polishibg so I digged trough my collection of nail polishes and spotted this beauty.
 
Book! Evo i mene nakon dugog vremena! Bila sam u velikoj gužvi pa nisam baš ni lakirala puno nokte (sram me bilo) :D Baš sam se zaželila lakiranja pa sam malo prokopala po svojoj kolekciji lakova i ugledala ovog ljepotanka.

One hell of a gradient

Today I'm showing you one super duper manicure. :) Let's face it, it's one little gradient and that's all! Simple as that! But I can't help being totally surprised how it turned up. Forgive me for that but I'm not good with gradients. They just aren't working the way I would want them to. Till now I did a dozen of gradient manicure but this is only the second that looks absolutely the way I planned.

Danas ću vam pokazati jednu super duper manikuru. :) Da se razumijemo, to je samo jedan mali gradient i to je sve! Ne može biti jednostavnije! Ali jednostavno ne mogu ne biti iznenađena kako je ispalo. Oprostite mi zbog toga, ali ja inače nisam dobra u gradientima. Jednostavno mi ne idu onako kako bih ja to htjela. Do sada sam napravila desetak gradient manikura, a ovo je tek druga koja izgleda absolutno onako kako sam planirala.

Oldest challenge - Catrice Iron mermaiden

This challenge asks for oldest polish in a collection. I don't really remember which one is my oldest, but this one is old enough.Catrice Iron mermaiden is a duchorome metallic polish with greenish grey as base color that transforms to lilac depending from light and angle that you are watching. Swatches are done with 3 layers of Catrice.

Ovaj izazov zahtjeva najstariji lak u kolekciji. Ne sjećam se baš koji mi je lak iz kolekcije najstariji, no ovaj je dovoljno star. Catrice Iron mermaiden je lak duochrome metalne boje. Za bazu ima zeleno sivu koja se preljeva u lila ovisno o svjetlosti i kutu iz kojeg gledate lak. Slike su napravljene s 3 sloja laka. 

Copycat manicure :)

Hi to all nail polish lovers! Today I have for you one sweet 'happy that the summer's on hold so I can paint my nails without bubbles manicure. :) I actually took the idea out of my notebook – which means that I stole it from someone! Shame on me! :)

Pozdrav svim lakićljupcima! Danas za vas imam jednu slatku :sretna sam što je ljeto na čekanju pa mogu lakirati nokte bez mjehurića: manikuru. :) Zapravo sam uzela ideju iz svoga blokića što znači da sam ju ukrala! Sram me bilo! :)

Jelly sandwich mani

Hi all!
Here I go again. I wanted to present a jelly sandwich manicure, something I really like to do. I'm sure you already know this, but jelly sandwich is made like this (or at least I make it this way): layer or two of base color, preferably cream, layer of glitter polish, layer or two of jelly polish.
For this specific manicure I used two coats of cream white polish, one layer of glitter polish and two layers of white jelly polish.

Pozdrav!
Evo mene opet. Danas sam vam htjela pokazati nešto već viđeno, jelly manikuru, koju jako volim raditi. Sigurna sam da ste već upoznate s procesom, ali svejedno ću vam opisati kako ja to radim: sloj ili dva bazne boje, sloj glitter laka, sloj ili dva jelly laka.
Za ovu manikuru sam koristila dva sloja kremastog bijelog laka, jedan sloj šljokica i dva sloja bijelog jelly laka.

Cool challenge - Essie Funny face

Next challenge required cool manicure color. Again I didn't had much time so I've made simple manicure with this beautiful polish - Essie Funny face. It is classic pink cream that suits every skin tone. I've made pictures with just two layers of Essie, and Seche Vite fast drying top coat on top of it.

Ovaj izazov zahtjevao je manikuru hladnog tona. Ponovo nisam imala puno vremena tako da sam napravila jednostavnu manikuru s ovim divnim lakom - Essie Funny face.
