Spring in Into the Dark

Kada je Essence-ova Vampire's Love kolekcija bila aktuelna, dok sam se setila da je kupim, vec je bila rasprodana. I sada, par meseci nakon toga, evo je opet, na rasprodaji :). Sad mi samo jedan fali iz ove kolekcije, ali prezivecu :). 
Danas je bio suncan, pravi prolecni dan. Zato sam morala da ukombinujem prolecni nail art sa jednom od novih lakica. Odlucila sam se za plavi - Into the Dark. U samo dva sloja, nokti su bili prekriveni i spremni za cvetice i leptirica :).
Pored Essence - Into the Dark, koristila sam crvenu, zutu i belu akrilnu boju, Essence - Lime Up, Aura Inches - Hip-Hop, b.pretty - Canopy i the Balm - Jade in the USA.

When Essence Vampire's Love collection was in stores, by the time I remember to buy it, it was already sold out. And now, couple of months after that, here it is again, on sale :). Now I'm only missing one more from this collection, but I can live without it :).
Today was a sunny, truly spring day. So I had to combine some spring nail art with one of those new polishes. I decided for blue one - Into the Dark. In just two coats, my nails were ready for flowers and butterfly :).
Beside Essence - Into the Dark, I used red, yellow and white acrylic paint, Essence - Lime Up, Aura Inches - Hip-Hop, b.pretty - Canopy and the Balm - Jade in the USA.

Kako vam se svidja nail art? A lak? Cini mi se da je najlepsi iz ove kolekcije.

How do you like my nail art? And polish? It seems to me that it's prettiest one from this collection.

FlorMar SuperShine Miracle Color U31

Flormar se cini jednostavan za nabaviti u ovoj zemlji. Ali to naravno, nije slucaj sa lakovima iz njihove Miracle Color kolekcije. Zahvaljujuci drugarici, uspela sam da se docepam par komada :).
U31 (da, veoma kreativno ime), je boja koja se ne moze objasniti recima. Ide od ljubicaste, preko teget plave, cak i do crne. Malo je reci da sam odusevljena. Dva sloja, bez podloge i nad laka.

Flormar seems to be easy to get in my country. But of course, that isn't a case when it come to their Miracle Color collection. Thanks to a friend of mine, I managed to get few of them :).
U31 (yes, very creative name), is color that can't be explained with words. It goes from purple, over dark blue, even to black. I really love it. Two coats, no base and top coat.

Miss Sporty - (060) Hypnotic Turquoise with Bee

Svaki put kada udjem u parfimeriju gde se prodaje Miss Sporty kozmetika, vidim ovaj lak, i razmisljam vredi li ga kupiti. Naravno, uvek sebe ubedim da cu drugi put, i tako vec jedno 10ak puta. Naravno, morao mi je kad tad doci u korpu, i nisam zazalila :). Iako na bocici ne pise naziv, samo broj 060, uspela sam da ga identifikujem sa Miss Sporty sajta kao Hypnotic Turquoise. Negde izmedju plave i zelene, prelepa tirkizna boja u samo dva sloja. Morala sam nesto da mu dodam, te sam se odlucila za pcelicu :).

Every time I walk into store that sells Miss Sporty cosmetic, I see this polish, and think about should I buy it or no. Of course, I always convince myself that I will buy it next time, and so on next ten times. Of course, it had to be in my stash, and I didn't regret :). Although there is no name on the bottle, only number 060, I managed to identify it from Miss Sporty web as Hypnotic Turquoise. Somewhere between blue and green, beautiful turquoise color in just two coats. I had to add something to it, so I drew bee :).

Moram priznati da mi se jako dopada kako je pcelica ispala. A vama? Jeste li probale ovaj lak?

I have to admit that I really like how bee turned out. Do you? Have you tried this polish?

Never say NO to panda :)

Mozda se pitate zasto je naslov posta takav kakav jeste. Nastavite citati, objasnicu vam :).
Prvo, da krenemo od podloge... Dosta njih (vas) je ukljuceno u "On Wednesday we wear pink", mada meni to nikada nije bilo primamljivo. Nisam ljubitelj pink boje toliko da bi je mogla nositi jednom nedeljno. Ipak, danas sam odlucila da vam se pridruzim na jedan dan, zajedno sa the Balm - Don't Pink and Drive. 
Predivna nijansa, ne presvetla, i savrsena u samo dva sloja.
A na prstenjaku, panda. Zasto panda? Prvo je pogledajte pa cete saznati :).

Maybe you wonder why are those words in the title of the post. Keep reading, I'll explain :).
First, let's start with base... A lot of them (you) are in "On Wednesday we wear pink" challenge, although that never was really tempting for me. I'm not really a fan of pink so much that I could wear it once a week. Anyway, today I decided to join you for a day, together with the Balm - Don't Pink and Drive.
Beautiful shade, not too much bright, and perfect in just two coats.
And on ring finger, panda. Why panda? First take a look at it, and then I'll tell you :).

Najsmesnija reklama koju sam ikada gledala bila je "Never Say NO to Panda" :). Inspirisana reklamom, a i pandom uopste, smejala sam se ceo dan. Pogledajte je i vi ako zelite, necete se pokajati :).

Funniest commercial that I ever saw was "Never Say NO to Panda" :). Inspired by commercial, and by panda itself, I laughed all day. Take a look if you want, you won't regret :).

China Glaze Magnetix–Instant chemistry

Moji prvi China Glaze lakovi :). Naravno, za sve je zasluzan moj decko, koji mi je priznao da je procitao sve sto sam do sad pisala, i shvatio da sam odusevljena magneticsima. Tako da sam za nasu godisnjicu, dobila dva lakica i magnet. 
Da budem iskrena, jos ne znam sta mislim o njima. Nisam imala puno vremena da ih isprobavam, tako da nisam sigurna da li je magnet slab, ili su metalne cestice u laku retke. Uglavnom, magnetski efekat se mnogo slabije vidi nego sto je slucaj kod Golden Rose magneta, ali je magnet mnogo bolji po izgledu i lakse se koristi. O njemu cemo drugi put. Sada pogledajte Instant Chemistry (instant hemiju koju sam stvarno i dozivela sa bojom ovog laka).

My first China Glaze nail polishes :). Of course, for that I can "blame" my boyfriend, who admitted that he read my blog, and saw that I became crazy about magnetics. So for our anniversary, I got two nail polishes and a magnet.
To be honest, I still don't know what I think about them. I didn't had much time to try them out, so I'm not sure is magnet too weak, or are metal pigments in polish really low. Anyway, magnetic effect is poorly than Golden Rose magnetic, but magnet have much better look and it's easier to use it. We'll talk about it some other time. Now take a look at Instant Chemistry (I really felt instant chemistry with color of this polish).

Jeste probali ovaj lak? Koje marke Magnetics lakova preporucujete? Ja i dalje tragam za nekim svetlijim bojama :).

Have you tried this nail polish? What brands of Magnetics nail polishes do you recommend? I'm still searching for some brighter colors :).

Cloud Mani inspired by Refined&Polished

Pre nekih nedelju dana, Refined & Polished je pravila nail art takmicenje sa temom da se napravi nail art baziran na nekom njenom ranijem. Moji crtez je bio inspirisan njenim oblacima koje je napravila ovde
Umesto pink, odlucila sam se za zutu, the Balm - Hella Yella, i naravno, morala sam da dodam par kapi kise. Nekako su mi isli uz oblake :). Plave oblake sam obojila sa Miss Sporty #060.

About a week ago, Refined & Polished had a nail art contest with theme to do nail art inspired by some of hers. My draw was inspired with cloud mani that she did here
Instead of pink, I decided to go with yellow, the Balm - Hella Yella, and of course, I had to add some drops of rain. They somehow fits with clouds :). Blue clouds are colored with Miss Sporty #060.

Nisam nista osvojila, ali priznajem da je bilo zabavno. Mozda i ja uskoro napravim nail art takmicenje. Da li biste bile zainteresovane? Sta bi volele kao temu?

I didn't won anything, but I admit that it was fun. Maybe I can make some nail art contest soon. Would you be interested? What would you like to see as theme of a contest?

Funniest sheep ever :)

Slucajno sam videla sliku jedne nacrtane ovce, i odmah mi na pamet padne igrica sa Sven ovcom. Pretpostavljam da znate koja je, a ako ne, googlajte :). Shvatam da bi bilo pomalo nekulturno da ih nacrtam na noktima (mislim na igricu), ali ko zna, mozda jednom i to uradim. Zato danas, samo obicne ovce u travi. Naravno, jedna je morala da bude crna :D.
Podloga... She Bunny #034 (napravljena od strane kompanije Aura). Bocica je poprilicno mala, svega 5.5ml, ali je i cena prihvatljiva (ne secam se tacno koliko, ako zelite, pogledacu). Posto je bocica mala, i cetkica je, te sam se jako namucila sa mazanjem. Jednostavno, tesko je drzati je u ruci. Boja je prekrasna, tako da je ipak vredelo muke.

I accidentally saw picture of a sheep, and I remembered the game about sheep : Sven. I guess you know what it is, but if you don't, google it :). I realized that it would be little bit inappropriate to draw them on nails (the game), but who knows, maybe I do that one day. So today, just regular four sheep in a grass. Of course, one had to be black :D.
Base... She Bunny #034 (made by Aura company). Bottle is really small, only 5.5ml, but price is acceptable (I can't remember it, if you want, I'll take a look). Since bottle is small, brush is too, so I had a lot of trouble applying it. It's just so hard to handle it. Color is beautiful, so it was worth it.

Dok sam crtala ovo, smejala sam se ko luda. Jednostavno, svaki pogled na njih mi je bio urnebesan :D. Nadam se da sam i vas uspela da nasmejem ;).

While I was drawing this, I laughed like crazy. Just, every look on them was hilarious :D. I hope I succeed in making you laugh :).

Rainy Day Nail Art

Ceo dan, isti zvuk. Zvuk kiše koja pada. Ne smeta mi, na neki način mi i prija, dok god ne moram da izađem napolje, pokisnem i osetim taj miris kiselog. Ipak, čak i kad sam izašla napolje, nisam dozvolila da me to rastuži, već mi je na neki način dalo i inspiraciju. Pogađajte za šta :).
Podloga je bila Essence (Vampire's Love) - The Dawn Is Broken, a ostalo akrilne boje.
Ipak ti oblaci i nisu toliko strašni :).

All day, same sound. Sound of raining. I don't mind, it's kind of relaxing, as long as I don't need to go outside, get wet and feel that sour smell. When I finally went outside, I didn't allowed myself to feel sad as always when it rains, it was kind a inspiring. Guess for what :).
Base color is 3 coats of Essence (Vampire's Love) - The Dawn Is Broken, and rest of it are acrylic paints.
It seems that clouds aren't that scary :).

Volite li kišu? Znam da je neki ljude vole... I šta mislite o mom Kišnom Nail Art-u?

Do you like when it rains? I know some people does... And what do you thing about my Rainy Nail Art?

Ducklings and Eggs

Danas opet slavimo Uskrs :). Obožavam praznike, iako moram priznati da sam danas pojela mnogo više nego što sam trebala. Pošto sam za prošli Uskrs crtala zečeve i pile, danas sam se odlučila za pačiće. Dva pačeta, bata i seka, u travi, prepunoj šarenih jaja :).
Koristila sam the Balm - Sky Blue Right Past You, the Balm - Jade in the USA, Essence - Bad Girl, Essence - Flowerfields i akrilne boje. 

Today we are celebrating Easter again :). I love holidays, but I have to admit, I ate more food than I needed. Since I drew bunnies and chicken for last Easter, today I decided for ducklings. Two ducklings, boy and a girl, in a grass, surrounded by painted eggs :)
I used the Balm - Sky Blue Right Past You, the Balm - Jade in the USA, Essence - Bad Girl, Essence - Flowerfields and acrylic paints.

In Memoriam : Titanic (1912-2012)

Pre tacno 100 godina, na danasnji dan, nesto pre ponoci, potonuo je Titanik. Titanik je bio najluksuzniji brod koji je ikada plovio do tog vremena. Na svom prvom putovanju, udario je u ledeni breg, i potonuo na sred Severnog Atlantika, zajedno sa 1514 ljudi. 
Postoje mnoge teorije zasto se sve to dogodilo (po meni, veoma interesanta tema), ali nista to nije bitno danas. Bitno je secati se tih ljudi, barem na danasnji dan... 

Exactly 100 years ago, on today's date, somewhere before midnight, sank Titanic.  She was the luxurious ship afloat at the time of her voyage. On hers first trip, after colliding with an iceberg, she sank in the middle of the North Atlantic Ocean, along with 1514 people.
There are many theories that explains why all the happened (in my opinion, very interesting topic), but none of that matters today. It's important to remember all those people, at least on today's date...

Sta mislite o potonucu Titanika? Da li ste gledale film? I naravno, kako vam se svidjaju nokti?

What do you think about Titanic? Did you watched the movie? And of course, how do you like my nails?
