The New 31 Day Challenge : Duochrome, Flakie AND Holo

Kada sam procitala temu "Duochrome, Flakie or Holo" pomislila sam da me neko zeza. Kako bilo ko moze izabrati izmedju ova tri? Posto su u pitanju moja tri omiljena zavrsetka laka, odluka nije mogla biti doneta cak ni bacanjem novcica, pa sam pomesala sva tri :). Prvo, predivan duochrome lak FlorMar DC02 (mogli ste ga videti OVDE), zatim najlepsi zlatni holo China Glaze - It's My Turn (koji ste mogle videti OVDE), i na kraju flakie lak Golden Rose Scale Effect #13 (koji sam koristila OVDE). 

When I read what a theme is today, "Duochrome, Flakie or Holo" I thought that somebody is kidding me. How could you choose between those? Since that's my three favorite nail polish finishes, desicion coudln't be made neither with flipping coin, so I mixed them all :). First, gorgeous duochrome nail polish FlorMar DC02 (you could see it HERE), then most beautiful golden holo China Glaze - It's My Turn (that you could saw HERE), and in the end, flakie nail polish Golden Rose Scale Effect #13 (that I used HERE). 

Kada biste vi morale da birate izmedju duochrome, holo i flekija, sta bi izabrale? Kako vam se dopada moja kombinacija? Jedva cekam da vidim za sta su se devojke sa kojima radim ovaj izazov odlucile : 

When you would need to choose between duochrome, holo and flakies, what would be your pick? How do you like my combination? I can't wait to see what was a pick made by girls with who am I doing this challenge : 

FlorMar DC02 : And all those MANs

Nova FlorMar Duo2XChrome kolekcija jos nije stigla kod nas, ali to me nije sprecilo da kupim jedan u Rumuniji. Odabrala sam da to bude DC02 (da, ljudi iz kompanije FlorMar ocigledno jos uvek nisu naucili da daju imena lakovima) zato sto je izgledao neobicno i za razliku od ostalih, jedinstveno. Pogledajte kako se boje prelivaju u bocici... shvaticete zasto sam se zaljubila.

New FlorMar Duo2XChrome collection still hasn't arrived in Serbia, but that didn't stopped me to buy one in Romania. I chose DC02 (yes, people that work in FlorMar obviously still haven't taught to give names to polishes) only because it looks unusual and, unlike others, unique. Take a look at all those colors in the bottle... you can see why I fell in love.

Na noktima je vec malo drugacije. Nema te svetlo ljubicaste nijanse ili barem ja nisam uspela da je vidim. Boja FlorMar DC02 se preliva iz zlatne u tamno zelenu, ukljucujuci i sve nijanse izmedju ove dve boje. Dovoljno da mi se svidi. Ono sto mi je smetalo kod ovog laka je cetkica koja nekako uvek ostavi trag za sobom. Posle dva sloja laka, nokat je bio potpuno prekriven, ali sam morala da nalakiram i treci kako bi "prikrila tragove" koje cetkica uporno ostavlja... 

It's kind of different on nails. There isn't any light purple shade or at least I don't see it. Color of FlorMar DC02 goes from gold to dark green, including all shades in between of those two colors. Enough for me to like it. What bothered me most with this nail polish is brush, it always somehow leave traces behind. After two coats of nail polish, nails were completely covered, but I have to polish another coat, just to cover all those traces that brush left.

Dok sam cekala da se lak osusi, gledala sam seriju Smallville koja me je navela na razmisljanje... Znate ono, SpajderMEN, BetMEN, SuperMEN, X-MEN... i jos mnostvo onih kojima se "ime" zavrsava na MEN. A tu su i sve te njihove devojke koje samo cekaju da im jedan od njih priskoci u pomoc. Da li su prave devojke stvarno jake (i jace od svih tih "MEN"-ova) ili smo u dubini duse i mi one koje cekaju jednog koji ce nam priskakati u pomoc? 

While I was waiting for polish to be dry, I watched TV show Smallville and it made me thinking... You know that story, SpiderMAN, BatMAN, SuperMAN, X-MAN... and all of those that have a "name" finished with "MAN". And there are all their girls who just wait for some of them to jump and help them. Are real life girls really that strong (and stronger than all those "MAN"s) or are we somewhere deep down still wait for someone to rescue us?

Sta mislite o laku i nail art-u? I naravno, volela bih da cujem vase razmisljanje o mom razmisljanju ;).

What do you think about nail polish and nail art? And of course, I would love to hear your thoughts about my thinking ;).

Gorgeous duochrome - Ebalay 007

Pre nekih mesec dana, Maggie sa KKCenterHK me je kontaktirala i ponudila mi da uradim recenziju nekog njihovog proizvoda. Posle par e-mailova, izabrala sam lak Ebalay 007. Imala sam osecaj da je u pitanju jedan divan duochrome lak, i drago mi je da sam bila u pravu. Slika na sajtu poprilicno odgovara laku uzivo. Na sajtu, u opisu su naznacili da je boja jako svetla ako se nanosi samo ovaj lak, dok preko tamne podloge pokazuje divan spektar boja. Bocica ima 15ml, a evo kako se boje u njoj presijavaju na suncu.

About a month ago, Maggie from KKCenterHK contacted me and offered me to review one of their products. After few e-mails, I chose nail polish Ebalay 007. I had a feeling that it's a wonderful duochrome polish, and I was right. Picture on their web pretty much shows what polish really looks like. They also wrote that color is lighter if you apply it without any base, and if you want a duochrome effect you have to use base color. Bottle has 15ml, and you can see all kind of colors in it. 

Prvi utisak, neprijatan miris. Ipak, nista sto otvoren prozor ne moze da resi. Takodje, jedna interesantna informacija, na laku pise da je proizveden u Holandiji. Nalakirala sam jedan sloj ovog laka preko crne podloge, i pocela da buljim u njega. Bukvalno, pola sata sam samo pomerala prste gore-dole i otkrivala boje koje idu od bordo, preko plave, ljubicaste, pa sve do pink. Pripremite se na mnogo slika :).

First expression, bad smell. But, that's nothing that open window can't fix. Also, interesting information, there is label on the bottle that says it's made in Netherlands. I polished one coat of this polish over black base, and started staring at it. Literally, I spent half an hour moving my fingers up and down and discovering all kind of colors that goes from maroon, over blue, purple, to pink. Prepare yourself for lot of pictures :).

Ovaj lak kosta oko 650RSD / 6.25€, ali je trenutno rasprodan. KKCenterHK takodje ima i Magnetic lakove, glitter lakove, mat, cracle, i one koji svetle u mraku (moram nabaviti te!) kao i jos mnogo stvarcica za nail art. Ako odlucite da kupite nesto, ne zaboravite da iskoristite kupon kod kako bi platile 10% manje : BLGA343MA10 . Kod vazi do 31.1.2013.
Sta mislite o ovom laku? Razmisljate li o tome da nabavite jedan ovakav?


This polish costs about 6.25€ / 6.8$, but it's currently out of stock. KKCenterHK also has Magnetics, glitters, matte, cracle nail polishes, and glow in the dark (I must buy those!), and also a lot of nail art stuffs. If you decide to buy something, don't forget to use coupon code for 10$ off : BLGA343MA10 . Code is valid until 31st Jan. 2013.
What do you think about this polish? Would you consider buying it?

Essence - Where is the party?

Nisam mogla da verujem da jedan lak moze imati toliko boja u sebi… Znate onaj osecaj kada pricate sa tamo nekim ljudima i ne gledate u njih, vec koristite svaki momenat da buljite u svoje nokte? E takav efekat ovaj lak ima na mene :). Sa samo dva sloja, tako mnogo boja. Pripremite se na spam slikama :).

I couldn’t believe that one nail polish can have so many colors inside itself… Do you know the feeling when you talk with someone and you don’t look at them, because you use every moment to stare at your nails? That’s how this polish have on me :). With only 2 coats, so many colors… Prepare yourself for picture spam :)















Ok, prestacu. Prvo mi je bilo jako tesko da uslikam ovaj lak, ali sam posle nekako imala srece, i uspelo mi je preko 20 slika. Verujte, bilo je jako tesko odabrati. Sta reci, zaljubila sam se. A vi?

Ok, I’ll stop. At first, it was really hard to take pictures of this polish, but later I had luck, and I succeed to took over 20 good pictures. Trust me, it was hard to choose. What can I say, I’m in love. Are you?
