Nail art - Bell in Brown upgrade with White

Hello!

This is nail art I promised you in previous blog post. When you get bored with classic manicure, a bit of nail art in contrast color makes wonders.

Pozdrav,

ovo je nail art koji sam vam obećala u prethodnom postu. Kad vam dojadi klasična manikura, malo nail arta u kontrasnoj boji radi čuda.

Bell - 414 in Dark Brown

Hello!

Today I'm bringing you a brown shade made by Bell.

Pozdrav!

Danas vam donosim jednu jesenju smeđu nijansu u izvedbi Bella.

Eveline 401 in Holographic Sand

Eveline hasn't been here in Croatia for long, but I must say that looking at price and quality ratio, they are a nice surprise and I like to use all kind of their products like lipsticks, eye liners, lip glosses and so on.
Their smallest polish collection where each polish has 5mL is Eveline MiniMax. Polishes in that collection have really nice summer colors, but there are also a few holographic shades from which I will review 401 in sand color.

Eveline kao brand nije ovdje u Hrvatskoj dugo prisutan, no moram reći da mi se odmah svidio zbog dobrog omjera cijene i kvalitete. Zbog toga volim koristiti i njihove druge proizvode kao što su ruževi, tuševi za oči, sjajila i sl.
Njihova najmanja kolekcija lakova sadrži lakove od samo 5mL, a zove se Eveline MiniMax. Lakovi iz te kolekcije dijele se na kremaste koji su vedrih ljetnih boja i holografske. Recenziju jednog od njih možete pogledati u ovom postu. Radi se o Eveline Holographic 401 boje pijeska.

Bell 019 in Brown

Hi readers,
has autumn catch you up yet? If yes, this brown polish will be just the one that should suit your mood.

Pozdrav,
da li vas je jesen već sustigla? Ako jest, ovaj smeđi lak bi trebao odgovarati vašem raspoloženju.

Hot list, Urban purple & Electronica

To all our readers - this post will be in Croatian only!

Danas 0 bodova od nail arta jer sam vam za promjenu odlučila pokazati 3 laka za nokte koji su stvarno predugo čekali svoj red za lakiranje. Najrađe bih se za ruku ugrizla kada vidim kakve sve ljepote u kolekciji imam, a totalno zaboravim na njih. :/ Ovakvih 'ljutih' postova će biti još jer sam si ovo ljeto zadala za manikure korisiti samo neisporbane lakove pa kada dođe jesen da mogu napravit reviziju i riješiti se onoga što mi ne treba i ne planiram nositi, a to će mi biti lakše kada se uvjerim kakva sva blaga imam i što ne želim da mi oduzima vrijeme. :)

Blatnjavci

To all our readers - this post will be in Croatian only!

Ova je manikura nastala još početkom proljeća, ali u borbi s vremenom nikako je nisam uspjela podijeliti s vama. Ideju mi je dala silna kiša koja je tada padala, a svi mi koji živimo u Slavoniji, znamo da to može značiti samo jedno - blato. Pa da bude veselije, odlučila sam se na cvjetiće u blatu. :D Šalim se naravno! Htjela sam napraviti cvjetiće u ovako ispranim pastelnim bojama, a ovaj smeđi lakić se tu našao kao nešto još neisprobano.

OPI - Bronzed to perfection

 Hi! This warm weather pulled out another one of polishes leaning on the warm side - OPI Bronzed to perfection.

Pozdrav! Ovo toplo vrijeme prizvalo je još jedan topli lak - OPI Bronzed to perfection.

Shade compliments my neutral skin tone a lot, and I simply love how this one looks on my skin! There are two layer of OPI here, but even with one this one is opaque, althrough a bit lighter in shade.

Ova nijansa odlično paše mom neutralnom tonu kože, apsolutno me oduševljava svaki put kad ga stavim! Na slikama su dva sloja laka, ali čak i sa jednim lak je neproziran, iako je tada svjetlije nijanse.

Catrice - Sunny Side with Alessandro - Wicked Ginger

I love this sunny period so much! So I think this manicure suited very well. I did it with yellow-orange cream named Catrice Sunny Side.

Obožavam ovaj sunčani period! Mislim da mu ova manikura odlično odgovara. Napravila sam je sa žuto-narančastim krem lakom Catrice Sunny Side.

Polish also has nice golden shimmer to it that makes him little bit more interesting. I've added Alessandro Wicked Ginger on my accent nail, I think warmth of color suits Catrice very well :)

Lak ima sitni shimmer što ga čini zanimljivijim. Također sam dodala Alessandro WIcked Ginger na prstenjak, mislim da njegova toplina odgovara odlično na Catrice.

OPI – Chocolate Moose

If you are tipical kind of people - you love chocolate! And for real chocolate/nail polish lovers - this is your candy: OPI – Chocolate Moose.

Ako ste tipična osoba, zasigurno volite čokoladu! A za prave čoko/lako-ljupce - ovo je slatkiš za vas: OPI – Chocolate Moose.

This is lovely cream brown with cream finish. Pictures are showing little bit warmer color than it is in real life. Swatches are done with this layering:

• Eveline Maximum Growth as a polish base
• 2 layers of OPI Chocolate Moose
• 1 layer od Seche Vite fast drying top coat

Boja laka je kremasto smeđa sa krem finišem. Na slikama je ispao nešto toplijeg tona nego što je u stvarnosti. Swatchevi su napravljeni sa sljedećom manikurom:

• 1 sloj baznog laka - Eveline Maximum Growth
• 2 sloja OPI Chocolate Moose
• 1 sloj završnog laka za brzo sušenje - Seche Vite

Catrice – 460 In The Bronx

Dear readers!

Are you still feeling cold? This manicure could warm you up :)
It is a nice warm bronze shade - Catrice - In the Bronx

I've took pictures of this one in different angles and various illumination, so you might think it is different nail polish, but, in fact, it's the same one, even the same manicure. Polish dazzled myself with it's many faces :)

I like Catrice polishes, both price in quality they offer, and even the amount of polish isn't little.

Layers:

• 1 layer of Eveline Maximum Growth
• 2 layers of  Catrice – 460 In The Bronx (almost all Catrice polishes need only 2 coats to get opaque)
• 1 layer of Seche Vite fast drying top coat

OPI - Over the taupe

After some spring colors, I'm bringing you this winter beauty. OPI Over the taupe is grey-brown shade that suits most skin tones. It is rare shade and it's also great for business as for an everyday use.

Layers on my nails:

• 2 layers of OPI
• 1 layer Seche Vite

How do you like the color?

Eveline – Color show 495

This is post about one of the rare nude colors that I like - Eveline Color show 495. Nudes and other "business" colors usually doesn't fit my tan or nature to well. For that reason I also dislike grayish and taupe nail polish colors that most of the women are very fond of.

But this is the business shade I feel good wearing it! Maybe it is because of some warm tone to it, as my skin has neutral to warm (yellowish) tone, so that suits me better.

The application is quite opaque, and it's easy to apply. Price is low to, about 20kn ~ 3$, if I remember correctly, so I would definitely recommend it to buy. Here in Croatia you can buy it in Kozmo drugstores. Only bad side to Eveline polishes is that they have low choice of shades - only about 10 or so, and they are all ordinary - red, pink and nudes.

Do you like bussines colors more, or vibrant ones?

Bujoris No.13.

Hello and good evening!

This is the first Bujoris nail polish I bought - Bujoris No.13. It is dark plum color with purple shimmer in it. It looks blackish when there is no light. There are two coats. The brush is very wide, so the application is fast. It is written on the polish: 1 nail -> 1 stroke -> 1 second, so the wide brush is great for fast manicure.

Let me show you some pictures. Bottle:

Nails outside:

Inside (no direct sunlight):

Color from closeup:

I think that brush is great, and the nail polish is good for application. But, I think it is too expensive, and I don't like this color very much cause it is too blackish for me. When I want black - I use black, so if I'd like something more colorful I want it to be without doubts, so not too blackish, or too whitish or to transparent :)

Greetings!

China Glaze Wagon Trail

Recenzije lakova za nokte (Swatch)

Pregled lakova različitih boja i kvalitete. Pa počnimo!

1. Mirror shine - blue steel

marka: Avon
naziv: mirror shine
boja: blue steel (čelično plava)
vrsta: metalik

slika (za više slika pošaljite mail...): 

cijena: pristupačna
ljušti se: srednje
prozirnost: minimalna
uklanjanje acetonom: srednje teško 
najviše odgovara: trapericama, rokerskom stilu, ekstravagantnim stilovima
dodatni komentari: Boja je mrvicu plavija od ove na slici. Moj ten je srednje svijetao pa mu odgovara većina nijansi, ali rekla bih da bi još više odgovaralo curama sa svijetlijim tenom.

2. Clubbing colours - bordo

marka: Miss Sporty
naziv: clubbing colours
boja: bordo (tamno crvena)
vrsta: sjajan

slika (za više slika pošaljite mail...):

cijena: niska
ljušti se: srednje
prozirnost: minimalna
uklanjanje acetonom: teže 
najviše odgovara: klasičnim, ali i svim ostalim stilovima
dodatni komentari: Do sada najbolji omjer cijene i kvalitete laka. Može ga se kupiti u prodavaonicama Kozmo.

3. Mirror shine - copper sheen

vrsta: metalik

slika (za više slika pošaljite mail...):

uklanjanje acetonom: srednje teško 
najviše odgovara: za večernje izlaske na svečane večere, ali i za svakodnevni look za one hrabrije
dodatni komentari: najljepše pristaje uz tamniji ten. Mana je što nokti izgledaju nešto šire, a i malo se teže nanosi u smislu da se brzo suši, pa ako idete još jednom preko poteza koji ste napravili prije par sekundi može vam se nabrati lak (vidljivo na kažiprstu na slici).

4. Clubbing colours - nježno roza

slika (za više slika pošaljite mail...):

dodatni komentari: Meni je ovo jedan od boljih lakova po boji, izgledu, nanošenju i brzini sušenja. Ne gruda se tijekom na nanošenja! Do sada najbolji omjer cijene i kvalitete laka. Može ga se kupiti u prodavaonicama Kozmo.
