Be Different from Others…

Izvinjavam se sto me nije bilo par dana. Uhvatio me je neki virus, kog sam morala da pobedim iz kreveta. Barem sam na taj nacin uspela sebe da nateram da pocnem da ucim za ispite koji se priblizavaju.
Kazu da mnoge devojke odlucuju o boji laka na osnovu raspolozenja. Danas je to u mom slucaju tako. Essence-ov Love of Pink je lak cija me je boja ocarala svojom vedrinom. Cetkica je savrsena, kao i formula. Uspela sam da dobijem punu prekrivenost u samo jednom sloju. Drugi sloj ne bi bio suvisan, ali sam ostala na jednom zato sto sam imala druge planove :).

I want to say sorry because I wasn’t here in the last couple of days. I caught a cold, and I had to beet it from bed. At least that was a way to force myself to start studying for upcoming exams.
They say that many girls decided about color of polish based of their mood. Today, in my case, is true. Essence – Love of Pink is the polish which enchanted me with his lovely color. Brush is perfect, and formula too. I managed to get it full covered in just one layer. Second wouldn’t be too much, but I stayed with one because I had other plans :).
 IMG_0060

A sada moj plan… Zelela sam da svaki nokat bude razlicit od prethodnog, tako da sam ih ukrasila crno-belim akrinim bojama u razlicitim dizajnima…

And now my plan… I wanted to every nail be different from others, so I decorated them with black and white acryl colors making different designs.

I jos jedne slicne (a opet razlicite) mojoj drugarici Ivani :).

And one similar (but again different) to my friend Ivana :).

Sta mislite o ovome? Odoh da procitam sve vase blogove da vidim sta sam propustila :).

What do you think about this? I’m off to read all of your blogs to see what did I miss :).

Flowers on everybody’s nails…

Pored toliko stranih dobrih brendova lakova, zelela sam da nadjem i neke domace. Slucajno, vracajuci se sa “Noc Muzeja” proslog vikenda sam ih ugledala u nekoj parfimeriji, ali je bilo vec kasno. Naravno, cim mi je opet bilo usput – usla sam. U pitanju je brend Londessa, koji je poznatiji po proizvodima za kosu, ali ima i lakove. U doticnoj prodavnici u kojima sam nasla ove lakove, jedino mi se nije dopao izbor boja. Sve su crvene, roze ili crveno-roze. Tako da sam uzela jos jednu nijansu roze (mislim da ih imam do sad milion).
Lakovi se zovu Color Line, a imena pojedinih lakova neverovatno podsecaju na Golden Rose, Gabrini, Rapsodi … Shvaticete o cemu pricam kad kazem da je lak Color Line – 73. Kreativnost na nivou :D. Lak ima lepu boju, i dobru formulu. Cetkica je kratka, ali laka za upotrebu. Ono sto mi je smetalo je miris. Gori od Rapsodija definitivno. 

There are so many good international polish brands, but I wanted to find some domestic. Accidentally, when I was walking from “Night of Museum” last weekend I saw them in one store, but it was late and closed. Of course, as soon as I could – I went there. It is the brand Londessa, that have primary hair product but they have polishes too. In that store where I found these polishes didn’t like colors. There were all red, pink or red-pink. So I bought one more pink polish (I think I have them million).
Polishes name is Color Line, and names of single polish remind me on Golden Rose, Gabrini, Rapsodi… You’re realize what I’m talking about when I told you that this polish name is Color Line – 73. Creativity on level :D. Polish have nice color and good formula. Brush is short but it’s easy to use. One thing annoyed me – smell. It is worst then Rapsodi definitely. 

IMG_0059

Lepa mi je boja, ali mi se nije svidjalo kako stoji na noktima. Zato sam pokusala da popravim situaciju sa Essence Mat Top Coat-om.

It’s nice color, but I didn’t liked how it looks on nails. So I tried to fix situation with Essence Mat Top Coat.

IMG_0062

Ni ovo mi nije bilo nesto posebno, pa sam vratila sjaj noktima sa Aura 241, i dodala 2 cvetica na prstenjaku :)

This wasn’t that special, so I returned the glow to nail with Aura 241 , and I added 2 acryl flowers on ring finger :)

IMG_0063

IMG_0065

Posto je ovo sve nastalo tokom ispijanja kafe sa drugaricom, nacrtala sam i njoj cvetice :). Kao podloga Essence Just Rock It!, a cvetici akrilnim bojama.

Since all this is made while I was drinking coffee with a friend, I draw her flowers too on nails :). As base Essence Just Rock It!, and flowers with acryl paints.

IMG_0066

Koji vam se vise svidjaju? Da li ste probale Color Line lakove?

Which one do you like best? Did you tried Color Line polishes?

Blossoms etc… polishes

Secate se da sam vam pre 2 nedelje rekla da sam dobila od Essence-a nekoliko njihovih  proizvoda iz Blossoms etc… kolekcije? Dan posle toga, otputovala sam nazad na fakultet, i totalno zaboravila da ih ponesem. Kada sam napokon stigla kuci, nisam mogla da docekam da ih isprobam. I iskreno, nisam nesto odusevljena…
Prvo od njih je My Yellow Fellow, koji izgleda perfektno u bocici. Pastelno zuta boja sa zlatnim shimerom (Amra mi je rekla da je to shimer, a ne sljokice :D). Po meni, cetkica mu je pretanka, a formula vodenasta. Trebala su mu 3 sloja da bi izgledao relativno jednak na noktima i da bi boja bila ista kao u bocici. Iskreno, veoma sam se namucila sa mazanjem, i mislim da ga necu skoro stavljati opet.

Do you remember two weeks ago when I told you that I got few products from Essence from Blossoms etc… collection? Day after that, I traveled back to college and totally forgot to bring them with me. When I finally came home, I couldn’t wait to try them out. And sincerely, I’m not very satisfied…
First of them is My Yellow Fellow, that looks perfectly in bottle. Pastel yellow color with golden shimmer (Amra says that’s the shimmer, not glitter :D). At my opinion, brush is too thin, and formula is too watery. It took him 3 layers to get relatively even look on nails, and to get the same color that’s in the bottle. I had a very tough time to apply it, and I think I won’t use it soon.  

IMG_0077

Drugi, Bloom-a-Loom je najbolji od ova 3 isprobana laka. Cetkica mu je isto tanka, ali mu je formula malo gusca, sto je pokrilo taj nedostatak. Stavila sam isto 3 sloja, iako bi i samo 2 bila dovoljna ako pazljivo mazete. Kod sva 3 ova laka sam primetila da ako vam prethodni sloj nije 130% suv, i namazete sledeci, pojavljuju se grudvice koje se tesko pokriju.

Second one, Bloom-a-Loom, is the best from these 3 polishes I tried out. Brush is thin, but the formula is much better and that covers the lack of brush. I applied 3 layers, 2 would be enough if you are very carefully with applying. I noticed with all 3 of these, that if previous layer isn’t 130% dry, and you apply another one, lot of dots appear and they’re hard to cover.

IMG_0083

Konacno, treci po redu – I Like, lepa pastelna tirkizna boja sa srebrnkastim simmerom. Skoro odlicna pokrivenost sa 2 sloja, ali i dalje sam imala problem tanke cetkice i stvaranje grudvica.

Finally, third one – I Like, beautiful pastel turquois color with silvery shimmer. Almost great cover with 2 coats, but I still had troubles with thin brush and appearing dots. 

IMG_0067

Posto je ovaj bio poslednji na mojim nokticima danas, resila sam da mu dodam jos mali cvetic :).

Since this was the last one on my nails today, I decided to add him small flower :)

IMG_0072

Jeste li isprobale lakove iz Blossoms etc.. kolekcije? Kakvi su vasi utisci?

Did you tried out polishes from Blossoms etc.. collection? What do you think about them?

This products were sent to me by Essence for review.

Wake up your inner child!

Kazite sta hocete, ja smatram sebe i dalje detetom. Jutros, pijem ja kafu, i trazim neke igrice da igram. Najvise volim one sitne igrice u flesh-u, koje nemaju nastavljanje iz hiljadu nivoa, nego jednostavno – zabavis se i kraj. I tako naletim slucajno na igrice u kojima se mackaju nokti, ukrasavaju… A ono sto je najbolje, mozda vam i sine neka ideja za vase nokte. Probala sam nekih 15ak, i evo 3 najbolje (ima i stvarno glupih :D ).

You can say whatever you want, but I’m consider myself as child. This morning, while I was drinking coffee, I was looking for some games to play. I prefer those small games in flesh, those who don’t have thousand of levels, that who are simple – have fun and game over. That way I acidentaly found some games in which you can polish nails, desing them… What is the best – you can find some ideas for your nails. I tried out about 15 of them, and here is 3 that are the best (some were very stupid :D ).

Miranda Manicure
U ovoj igrici, imate 20 dezena, 3 vrste nalepnica, i naravno aceton. Nije bogata sadrzajem, ali su dezeni stvarno lepi.
In this game, you have 20 designs, 3 kind of stickers, and of course nail polish remover. It doesn’t have a rich content, but designs are very pretty.

miranda1-horz

Amazing Hand Art
10 jednobojnih lakova, 10 “dizajniranih” lakova, 14 prstenja, narukvice kod mene nisu htele da rade (ne znam sto), i milion nalepnica za nokte.
10 one-color polishes, 10 “designed” polishes, 14 rings, bracelets didn’t work for me (I don’t know why), and million stickers for nails. 

hand art-horz

Be Nail Designer
Ova je najinteresantnija po meni. U njoj sami pravite lakove za nokte, tj kombinujete boje sa crtezima. Kada zavrsite sa lakiranjem, imate na raspolaganju 10 prstena.
This one is the most interensted. In it, you make your own polishes, combining colors with draws. When you’re done with polishing, you can choose between 10 rings.

be ND-vert
Verujem da je mnogima od vas ovo dosadno, ali meni je bilo zanimljivo, a sigurna sam da ce jos nekome od vas biti. Pa javite utiske :)
I believe many of you will find this very boring, but it’s interesting for me, and I’m sure that some one of you will be too. To those who tried – what to do you think?

May 19, 2011

Are you kidding me?

Pa, trebala sam verovati u moju tehniku “3 puta meri, jednom seci”. Secate li se plavog Gabrinija kojim sam bila odusevljena? I onda sam ja taj dobar utisak nekako prenela na celokupan brend. Greska! Mozda ce se vama svideti, ali ja… 2 dana za redom da imam svetlucave nokte? Nema sanse, ne znam ni kako sam jedan dan izdrzala :D.
Uglavnom Gabrini – 378 (jos jedno kreativno ime), neka ljubicasta koja ne izgleda tako sjajno u bocici, ali na noktima… Posle jednog (pazljivo namazanog) sloja, dobila sam na noktima mrvicu ljubicaste podloge i sljokice. Mnogo sljokica. Sve ostalo kod ovog laka je ok, i susenje, i cetkica… Ali ne mogu preziveti toliko sljokica ove nedelje.

Well, I should have believe in my technique – in our country they say “measure 3 times, cut ones”, I don’t know how to translate truly meaning of expression but you know what I think. Do you remember that blue Gabrini that I loved? And than I somehow transferred that good expression on whole brand. Wrong! Maybe you’ll like this, but me… 2 days in the row with shiny nails? No way, I don’t know how I survived 1 day :D.
Anyway Gabrini 378 (another creative name), kind of purple color, that doesn’t look that shiny in the bottle, but in nails… After one (carefully applied) layer, on my nails I found little bit of purple base and glitter… Lots of glitter. Everything else with this polish is ok, drying, brush… But I just can’t survive that much glitter this week.

IMG_0024 
Prosto sam zelela da ubijem te sljokice i da mi ostane samo ljubicasta. Probala sam sa Matt top coat-om, ali bezuspesno. Kao da je uspeo da ubije 2 sljokice na povrsini od svih 5 noktiju.

I simply wanted to kill all those glitter, and to leave only purple. I tried this with Matt Top Coat, but no luck. It seems that he succeed to kill about 2 glitters on surface of all 5 nails…

IMG_0030

Pretpostavljam da ce se polovini vas svideti… Jel tako? I bas me zanima, jel ima jos neka od vas koja ne voli sljokice na noktima ili sa sama?

I suppose that half of you will like it… Am I right? And I really want to know, is there anyone else from all of you girls who doesn’t like glitter on nails or am I only one?

My ex-favorite

Vreme se pogorsalo, jesen je stigla…Dokle vise?!? Izgleda da ce nas leto preskociti ove godine, i to me cini tuznom… Ne tuznom, vise razocaranom. Hocu sunce!!! Morate priznati da se svaki lak najbolje vidi na suncu. Ako se vreme uskoro ne promeni, ceka nas jos godinu dana pomalo nerealnih slika noktica. Nego, ova “depresija” zbog nedostatka sunca me je naterala da se vratim tamnijim bojama, i mom bivsem omiljenom laku – Golden Rose 339 .
Bilo je to pre nekih godinu dana, kada sam ukupno imala nekih 15ak lakova ukupno, ali ovaj mi je svaki drugi dan bio na noktima. To mi je i prvi lak koji sam uspela da ispraznim 2 bocice u manje od 3 meseca. Razlog za to brzo trosenje jeste lepa boja, ali i malo losiji kvalitet. Naravno, tad nisam ni znala za mnogo bolje, tako da mi je odgovarao potpuno. A sad,… pa ne znam. Svi se mi prisecamo ponekad bivsih kakvi god da su bili (decko ce me ubiti ako ovo procita :D).Ne kazem da je ovaj lak ocajan, ali ima i boljih :). Uglavnom, tamno plavi, 2 sloja i, i dalje mozete videti bele vrhove. Priznajem, bila sam lenja da namazem i treci. Susenje je brzo, a cetkica standardna kao i kod svih turskih lakova. E sad, ono sto me je iznenadilo (posle toliko mazanja, uspeo je i da to uradio)… nisam mogla da poverujem kako se ovaj lak presijava. Kao da ima nekog shimera srebrnog i zlatnog. Evo pokusajte da ga vidite (sto je malo tesko na slici bez sunca :( ) .

Weather is getting worse, Autumn is here… Till when?!? It seems that Summer is going to skip us this year, and that makes me said… Not said, more disappointed. I want Sun!!! You have to admit that every polish is best visible on Sun. If the weather doesn’t change soon, I think that we’ll have one more year with little bit unreal pictures of nails. Anyway, this “depression” because of the lack of Sun, forced me to go back to dark colors, and to my ex-favorite polish – Golden Rose 339. 
That was about a year ago, when I had about 15 polishes, and this polish was every other day on my nails. That is the first one that I spent 2 bottles in 3 months. Reason for the fast spending is nice color, and a little bit bad quality. Of course, then I didn’t know for better, so it was completely ok for me. And now, …well I don’t know. We all sometimes remember our ex’s no matter what they were (my boyfriend will kill me if he read this :D) . I don’t say that it’s very bad, but I know better ones. Anyway, dark blue, 2 layers, and you can still see white tips. I’ll admit, I was lazy to apply third one. Drying was pretty fast, and the brush is standard for Turkish polishes. And now, there is one thing that surprised me… I couldn’t believe how shine he is and that I forgot that. Like it have some silver and gold shimmer. Try to see it (which is hard on picture taken without Sun).

IMG_0032

A onda zlatne tackice, cisto da ne bude gdin usamljeni :P

And then golden dots, just because I don’t want for him to be Mr. Lonely :P

IMG_0037

Moram da priznam da mi se i ne svidja vise bas toliko. Ali nek stoji, ko zna, mozda uspem da zavolim svu tu svetlucavost :). Jel se vama svidja? Jeste ga probale?

I have to admit that I don’t like that much anymore. But I’ll leave it, who knows, maybe I fall in love with all that shininess one day :). Do you like it? Did you tried it?

3rd time the charm

Ok, treci Rapsodi i po meni najbolji. Divna nezno ljubicasta boja – 187. Mazanje ovog jeste bilo malo teze, ali je dovoljno 2 sloja da imate dobru pokrivenost. Napokon me je prosla prehlada, i uspela sam da osetim miris – tj. smrad. Ali sve se to da resiti otvorenim prozorom. 

Ok, third Rapsodi and the best till now. Beautiful purple color – 187. Appling of this one was a little bit harder, but 2 layers are enough to have good covernes. Finally my nose is ok, so manage to smell it- disgusting. But you can fix that with a open window. 

IMG_0011

Naravno, i ovom laku sam morala dati upecatljivi detalj, a tu su dosla na red akrilno srce i zvezda.

Of course, I have to give this polish some details, and this time it’s acryl heart and star.

IMG_0016

Konacan zakljucak o Rapsodi lakovima : dala sam im 3 sanse, i ni jedanput me nisu nesto odusevili. Iako im je cena niska, za ove pare mozete kupiti i mnogo bolje lakove. Naravno, ne kazem da ih necu nikad vise kupiti – ali samo ako mi se neka boja bas svidi. Od 3 turska proizvodjaca mogu reci da me je ovaj najvise razocarao.

Final conclusion about Rapsodi polishes : I gave them three chances, and they didn’t satisfied me even once. Although their price is low, for this money you can buy better polishes. Of course, I’m not telling that I will never buy them again  - but only if I find some color that I really like. From three Turkish brands I can say that this one was the most disappointed.

Another neon…

Ovaj blogger me je toliko iznervirao…grrrrr! Nit sam imala sta da citam, niti mogla da postujem… Jedva docekah da proradi :). Sad je valjda sve ok :). A danas za vas imam...
Drugi neonski, i drugi Rapsodi. Ovog puta narandzasti 191. Samo dva sloja, iako bi treci mogao dobro doci posto se jos uvek vide beli delovi nokta. Mazanje je i kod ovog nekako lepljivo. Opet imam osecaj gume na noktima, i to me izludjuje. Ali ono sto je dobro je sto se ova boja jos i moze nositi van kuce. 

This blogger annoys me… grrrr! I didn’t had anything to read, I couldn’t post anything… Glad that everything works now :). And today I have for you…
Another neon, another Rapsodi. This time orange 191. Just 2 layers, also the third wouldn’t be much, because you can still see tips. Appling is on this one kind of sticky. Again I have a filling like I have a rubber on my nails, and it drives me crazy. But what is good, is that you can wear this color outside.

IMG_0019

I na kraju sitne zelene akrilne sarice…

And on the end, small green acryl lines…

IMG_0021

Kako vam se svidja ovaj? Kako ste prezivele ovo gasenje bloggera?

How do you like this one? How did you survive blogger shut down?

Truly neon yellow

Naleteh pre par dana na pijaci na ove Rapsodi lakove. Cula sam za njih, ali nikad do sad probala. Posle malo googlanja, vidim da je to jos jedna od onih Turskih kozmetika poput Golden Rose i Gabrini. Posto sam sa njima bila koliko toliko zadovoljna, uzela sam 3 komada. Postujem ono da ne treba suditi na prvu loptu, pa rekoh ajde da na osnovu tri razlicita posudim. Uzela sam neonski zuti, neonski narandzasti i svetlo ljubicasti. 

Danas, imam za vas neonski zuti – 194. Izgleda je to ono sto povezuje sve Turske kozmeticke kuce – ne umeju da smisle normalne nazive lakova. Sto se ovog tice, mislim da je najvise neonski lak od svih koje sam do sad probala. Trebalo mi je 4 sloja (mogla su mozda i 2 deblja da prodju, ali je lak dosta vodenast, pa nisam htela da rizikujem). Cetkica je dobra, cak mi se cini da je ista kao i kod Golden Rose. Ono sto mi smeta kod ovog laka je lepljivost. Imam osecaj kao da mi je zuta guma nalepljena preko noktiju… A evo kako izgleda sa tih 4 sloja :

I run out few days ago on the market at this Rapsodi polishes. I have heard of them, but I never tried them before. After a little research on google, I saw that it’s one of those Turkish cosmetics such as Golden Rose and Gabrini. Since I found those to be very good, I bought 3 of them. I respect the policy “don’t judge on first look”, so I said “let's judge on first 3 looks”. I took the neon yellow, neon orange and bright purple.

Today, I've got a neon yellow – 194. It seems this is what connects all the Turkish cosmetics company - they can not come up with normal names for polishes. About this one, I think it’s the most neon of all neon polishes that I have tried so far. It took me 4 layers (maybe it could be 2 thickly, but texture is very watery so I didn’t want to risk). Brush is good, it seems to me that it’s the same one as in the Golden Rose. What bothers me about this is stickiness. I feel like I have yellow rubber stick over the nails ...Here's how it looks with those 4 layers:

IMG_0002

Nisam mogla nista da uradim pametno sa ovom bojom. Ni mat, ni sljokice, nista… Pa sam nacrtala nesto sto bi trebalo da budu cvetici :)

I couldn’t do anything smart with this color. Not even matt, or glitter, anything… So I draw something that should be flowers :)

IMG_0008

Kako vam se svidja ova boja? Meni je glupo cak i da izadjem iz kuce sa njom na noktima. Ne moze se ni uz sta uklopiti. Jeste li probale Rapsodi lakove?

How do you like this color? I feel stupid to leave the house with this on my nails. It can’t be match with anything. Did you tried Rapsodi polishes?

Show your Frogs :)

Svi hvale lakove iz Show your Feet kolekcije, ali ne mogu da uvidim zasto. Barem ne na osnovu ovog jednog jedinog koji imam i sam probala. – In the Jungle. Ok, ime mu pristaje, stvarno ima tu dzungla nijansu. I nije toliko katastrofalno, 2 sloja, ali mi je bilo jako tesko da ga namazem. Mozda je to zato sto nisam dovoljno cekala da se osusi prvi sloj, ne znam, ali mazanje drugog sloja je bilo kao pakao… Prezivela sam :)

Everybody brag about polishes from Show Your Feet collection, but I can’t see why. At least not according to this one and only that I have and that I tried – In the Jungle. Ok, name fits him, he really have that jungle color. And it’s not that bad, 2 layers, but it was so so so hard to apply. Maybe it’s because I didn’t wait long after the first one, but the applying the 2nd layer was like hell… I survived :)

IMG_0246

Dok sam vec bila “u dzungli”, dodala sam joj par zabica.

While I was “in jungle”, I added her two little frogs.

IMG_0248

Htela sam i da ih krunisem, kako bi bili kao iz one bajke sa princem-zabom, ali nisam ostavila dovoljno mesta izmedju ociju. Ocigledno da ne mogu sve zabe biti princevi ;).

I wanted to make them crowns, so they can look like that from the fairy tale about Prince-Frog, but I didn’t left enough space between eyes. Obviously, all frogs can’t be prince ;)

Must Have (Crazy Day)

Ok, danas mi je totalno ludi dan. Jutros sam namazala lak, jednobojan – cisto da mi nokti ne budu “goli”, a sad izmedju gostiju koji su bili na rucku i onih koji dolaze na veceru, brzo sam ih malo doterala. Prvo da se pohvalim, jutros u celoj toj jurnjavi, postar mi zvoni na vrata – stigao mi paketic od Essence-a koji sam dobila na njihovom Uskrsnjem Giveaway-u. Bice swatcheva i detalja uskoro, za sad samo slika svega :).

Ok, today I have a totally crazy day. In the morning, I polished my nails, with only one color – just to not have “naked” nails, and now between guests who were here for lunch, and them who’s coming for dinner, I adjusted them. First, I want to tell you,…this morning, while we were in the big rush finishing all, my postman rang at the door – I got a package from Essence that I won on their Easter Giveaway. There will be swatches and detail soon, for now just a picture of everything :)

O, i moram da vam pokazem predivnu korpicu sa cvecem sto smo dobili od mojih babe i dede… Inace ne volim bas cvece, ali ovo mi je prelepo.

Oh, and I have to show you beautiful flower basket that we got from my grandparents… I usually don’t like flowers, but this is so cute.

Konacno nokti… Kao sto sam rekla,jutros sam namazala jednobojni Essence – Must Have. Taj sam izabrala samo zato sto jos uvek nisam imala predstavu sta cu obuci za rucak, a on mi se cinio neutralan. Samo jedan sloj je dovoljan (pogotovo za ovako kratke nokte), savrseno resenje za nokte kada nemate vremena. Brzo se osusio, i bio je prelagan za mazanje. Prva slika je slikana unutra, a druga napolje. Na suncu se vide sljokice raznih boja, koje su toliko sitne, ali prelepo izgledaju.

Finally nails… Like I already sad this morning I polished them with only one color Essence – Must Have. I picked that one just because I still didn’t had idea what I’m going to wear and he seems neutral. Just one layer is enough (especially for short nails like mine), perfect solution for your nails when you don’t have time. He dried very quickly, and he was very easy to apply. First picture was taken inside, and the second is outside. On the Sun, you can see different colors glitter, that is so tiny, but it looks beautiful.

Posto nemam puno vremena za crtanje akrilnim, napravila sam pecatima dva crteza (plocica M23 ali neka kineska) na palcu i prstenjaku, i preko njih namazala sam providne sljokice Aura 241. Na ostale nokte dosao je Essence – Clyde, cisto da ne ostanu jednobojni.


Because I don’t have time to draw with acrylic, I made 2 stamps (plate M23 but it is some Chinese) on my thumb and ring finger and over them I applied transparent glitter Aura 241. On the other nails, I put Essence – Clyde, just because I didn’t wanted to stay one-colored.

Drzite mi palceve da prezivim dan :D. Jos sutra idem da trcim maraton…
Nego, kako vam se ovo svidja? Jeste li probale ovaj lak? Sta mislite o “kineskim” plocicama?

Cross your fingers for me to survive the day :D. And tomorrow I’m going to run marathon…
How do you like this? Did you tried this polish? What do you think about “Chinese” plates?

The One And The Only

Jos uvek se ne mogu odluciti kakve nokte da napravim za sutra. Imate nekih predloga? Bice dan pun posla, pranja sudova, sklanjanja, posluzivanja… Treba mi neki manikir koji se brzo pravi, a da izgleda efektno i interesantno. Jos ne znam ni sta cu da obucem :)
Za danas, Essence – The One And The Only, jos jedan lak koji navodno nece vise biti u prodaji. Ne znam da li je do mene, ali jako me podseca na onaj iz Cute As Hell kolekcije (Date Me), kao i na onaj No More Drama. Izgledaju mi na slikama svi isto, a uzivo sam vec zaboravila kako oni izgledaju. 2 sloja, lako mazanje a boja malo tamnija nego sto je u bocici.

I still can’t decide how to make my nails tomorrow. Do you have any suggestions? It will be day full of work, doing dishes, serving,… I need a manicure that is quick to make, and that look effectively and interesting. I still don’t even know what I’m going to wear :).
For today, Essence - The One And The Only, another polish  which reportedly will no longer be in sale. I don’t know if it’s me, but it really reminds me on the one from Cute As Hell Collection (Date Me), as well as the No More Drama. On pictures they look very similar, but I can’t remember how they look in live. 2 layers, spreading easily and the color a bit darker than it is in the bottle.

IMG_0237

A onda malo crtanja akrilnim bojama, nesto nedefinisano ali je na kraju dobro ispalo. I kao dodatak, cirkon :)

And then small drawing with acrylic, something non-defined, but in the end it look nice. And some rhinestones as decoration :)

Ja sam prezadovoljna. Kako se vama dopada?

I’m over satisfied. How do you like it?

Let me tell you about Thelma&Louise

Znam da ste ih videli na mnogim drugim noktima do sada, ali nista na mojim :). Plus sto cu vam ja i ispricati jednu pricu. Odmah na pocetku, priznacu, da sam cula za Telmu i Luiz i provela ceo zivot misleci da su u pitanju musko i zensko (iako nisam imala predstavu ko je musko). Kada sam ih malo googlala, saznala sam ono sto verovatno sve vi znate, ali ja cu vam ponoviti cisto kao podsetnik :).
Telma je bila udata zena, koja je morala da se udovoljava svom muzu, dok je Luiz bila savremena zena, koja nije dozvoljavala da je muskarci iskoriscavaju. Potpuno razlicite jedna od druge, krenule su na put u prirodu, usput svrativsi u bar. Telmu je tad pokusao da siluje neki muskarac, i Luiz ga je slucajno ubila. Mislivsi da im niko nece verovati, postaju begunci i beze u Meksiko.
Kada sam procitala da u ovom filmu glumi Djina Dejvis (inace glumica koju volim jos od filma Dug Poljubac Za Laku Noc), i da se u njemu prvi put pojavio Bred Pit – odluka je pala, uskoro ga moram pogledati :).
Sto se lakova tice, vidi se da ne mogu jedna bez druge. Telmi je trebalo 2 sloja, malo se teze mazala, cak bi joj dobro dosao i 3 sloj kada bi isla bez Luiz. Luiz je puno sljokica, koje bas i ne volim ali nema ni veze.

I know you saw them on many other nails till now, but not on mine :). Plus I will tell you one story. On the start I have to admit, that I’ve heard about Thelma and Louise and I spent all my life thinking that they are man and woman (but I didn’t had idea who is who). When I googled them, I found out something that you all probably know already, but I will repeat you just as some little reminder.
Thelma was a married woman, who had to pleased to her husband, while Louise was modern woman, who didn’t let men to use her. Completely different from each other, they went to road trip to nature, and stopped in some bar. Some man tried to rape Thelma, and Louise accidentally killed him. Thinking that nobody will believe in their story, they became run away in Mexico.
When I read that in this movie, mail roll is Gina Davis (I love her since I saw Long Kiss Good Night), and in this movie is the first time Brad Pit showed out – I decide that I have to see it soon :).
About the polishes… you can see that they can’t go without each other. Thelma took 2 layers, it’s a bit harder to apply, even 3rd layer wouldn’t be too much when she will be without Louise. Louise is full of glitter, I don’t like it very much but never mind.

Jeste li gledale Telmu i Luiz? Da li ste probale ove lakove?

Did you looked Thelma and Louise? Have you tried this polishes?

You wanna know 10 facts about me?



Prvo bih zelela da zahvalim Nini, vlasnici bloga nina's nails koja mi je dala ovu nagradu :). Drago mi je sto je dosla od nje, zato sto obozavam da citam njen blog. Inace, obozavam da citam ovakvu vrstu postova, i iako se cini da ih je lako napisati - nije. To sam sad skontala :). 

First, I want to thank Nina, owner of the blog nina's nails who gave me this award :). I'm so glad that it came from her, because I love reading her blog. By the way, I also love to read this kind of posts, and they seems so easy to write - well, it isn't. I figure out that now :).

Kao sto verovatno znate vec, zadatak je da napisete 10 stvari o sebi, i da prosledite ovu nagradu na jos 10 blogova... Pa evo ga :

1) Kao dete, svirala sam klavir, a jedan od razloga zasto sam prestala je bio to da bi mogla da imam dugacke nokte :).
2) Imam "problem" sa spavanjem - kasno lezem, kasno ustajem a ponekad ne spavam danima (uglavnom zbog ispita)
3) Nikada nisam prebrojala lakove koje imam - ne usudjujem se.
4) Ne volim da gledam TV - sve sto hocu da pogledam, pogledam na internetu.
5) Obozavam italijansku kuhinju.
6) Ne volim izlaske u grad - precenjeni su. Vise volim koncerte :)
7) Ne nosim nakit uopste.
8) Sminkanje me umara.
9) Obozavam Fantu Exotic - u stanju sam da je pijem po ceo dan.
10) Nikad nisam bila na zimovanju.

As you probably know, the task is to write 10 facts about yourself, and to give this award to 10 other bloggers. So here it is :


1)As a child, I used to play piano, and one of the reason that I stopped was because I wanted to grow my nails :)

2) I have a sleeping "problem" - I go to bed very late, I wake up even later, and sometimes I don't sleep in days (usually because the exams)
3) I never counted my polishes - I'm too afraid.
4) I don't like to watch TV - everything I want to see, I see online.
5) I love Italian kitchen.
6) I don't like going to clubs- they're overrated. I prefer concerts :)
7) I don't wear jewelry at all.
8) Putting make-up makes me tired.
9) I love Fanta Exotic - I can drink it all day.
10) I never went at a winter holiday.

To nije bilo tako tesko :). Nadam se da nece biti ni vama kojima prosledjujem :)
That wasn't so hard :). I hope that it wouldn't be to you who I gave this reward :)

Essence Trendsetter (Glitter + Matt)

Napokon sam uspela da sednem bar na malo i da nalakiram nokte. Mama i zadnjih dana spremamo kucu, posto u petak imamo slavu.
Trendsetter je lak iz Essence-ove standardne postave stim sto sam negde procitala da ce da ga izbace sad (nije proverena informacija, ali ako vam se svidja, predlazem da ga kupite uskoro).
Lako se maze, ali ono sto me je neprijatno iznenadilo je to sto mu je trebalo 3 sloja, za raliku od ostalih Essenceovih lakova.

I finally manage to sit down for a little while, and polish my nails. My mum and I are cleaning whole house last days, because we have celebration on Friday.
Trendsetter is a polish from standard Essence line, but I read somewhere that they will stop selling it soon (it’s not for sure, but if you like it I suggest you buy it soon).
It’s easy to apply, but I was unpleasantly surprised that it took him 3 layers, unlike the other Essence polishes.

IMG_0225

Boja je nesto izmedju tamno zelene i tamno plave. Nije losa, pomalo je neobicna.
Svidja li vam se? Imate li ga vec ili mozda planirate da ga kupite?

Color is something between dark green and dark blue. Not bad, it’s unusual.
Do you like it? Do you own it or maybe planning to buy it?
 
EDIT : 

Puko mi je jos jedan nokat danas, pa mi je bilo dosta da ga stalno “krpim”, i skratila ih sve. Ipak obecala sam da ce biti mat ili glitter Trendsettera, pa evo ga :

I broke one more nail today, so I was sick of everything, and I cut them all. I promised that I will post Matte or Glitter Trendsetter so here it is : 

IMG_0255

3 mat, i 2 sa glitterom. Skroz sam zaboravila da imam ovaj Golden Rose 288, naletela sam danas na njega spremajuci kucu :D. Sta vam vise ide uz Trendsetter : mat ili glitter? 

3 matt and 2 with glitter. I totally forgot that I have this Golden Rose 288, I run in to him today while I was cleaning the house :D. What do you think that goes best with Trendsetter : matt or glitter?
