Aura Party Time Collection

Vratila sam se :). Nadam se da sam vam barem malkice nedostajala :). Imala sam previse obaveza oko fakulteta, pa nisam imala vremena ni da pisem. Stidim se same sebe, ali nisam imala vremena ni da lakiram nokte. Verovali ili ne, 3 dana sam isla sa "golim" noktima :(. Zato sam danas napravila veliki posao :). 
Party Time kolecija je izasla jos u decembru, mada je ja nisam tada primetila u prodavnicama. Ona je deo Aurinih Inches lakova, i koliko sam ja razumela, napravljena je da bi vama (tj nama) ulepsala Novogodisnju noc. Znam da je Nova Godina odavno prosla, ali za sljokice nikad nije kasno. Pogotovo jer ih jos uvek ima po radnjama :). 
Prvi lak je Aura Inches (#321) - Techno. Od ovog laka sam ocekivala najvise, ali mi se nije bas dopao. Na slici su 4 sloja, bez baze i top coat-a. 

I'm back :). I hope I missed you at least for just a little bit :). I had too many responsibilities with collage, so I didn't had time to write. I'm a shame of myself, but I didn't even polished my nails. Believe me or don't, but I went three days with "naked" nails :(. So today I decided to do big job :).
Party Time collection went out in December, although I don't remember seeing it then. It's part of Aura Inches nail polish line, and as far as I understood, it was made for New Year's Eve. I know New Year's Eve is over, but it's never late for glitters. Especially because they are still in stores :).
First nail polish is Aura Inches (#321) - Techno. I expected most from this polish, but in the end, it's not that great. On the picture is 4 coats, without base and top coat.

Aura Inches (320) - Hip Hop. Predivan ljubicasti lak, sa pomalo holo glittera u sebi. Na slici su dva sloja.

Aura Inches (320) - Hip Hop. Gorgeous purple nail polish, with little bit of holo glitter in self. On picture there are two coats.

Srebrni. Nisam ljubitelj srebrnih lakova, pa me ovaj lak podseca na mnoge druge lakove. Uglavnom, mozda ce se nekom od vas i svideti. Posto su sljokice u providnoj bazi, prelakirala sam ih preko cetiri razlicita laka, cisto da vidite kako to izgleda. Jedan sloj Aura Inches (318) - Jazz.

Silver one. I'm not really a fan of silver polishes, so this one reminds me on many others. Anyway, maybe some of you will like it. Since glitters are in clear base, I polished it over four different colors, just so you can see how it looks like. One coat Aura Inches (318) - Jazz.

Volim da ostavim najlepse stvari za kraj. Kao da gledam u vedro nocno nebo. Ovaj je definitivno broj 1 za mene ne samo od lakova iz ove kolekcije, vec i od svih ostalih koje sam probala ove godine. Tri sloja, Aura Inches (319) - Punk.

I love leaving prettiest things for the end. It's like I'm looking at clear night sky. This is definitely #1 for me, not only of polishes from this collection, but also from all the ones that I tried this year. Three coats, Aura Inches (319) - Punk.

Sta mislite? Koji vam se najvise svidja?
Meni je jako drago sto je Aura pocela da pravi ogranicene kolekcije, priznacete, mnogo su interesantnije :).

What do you think? Which one do you like best?
I'm really glad that Aura started making limited collections, admit it, it's more interesting :)

Pretty Butterflies

Danas, totalno suncan dan, ali opet ne pretoplo. Moje omiljeno vreme. Pala mi je pamet misao da jos uvek ove godine nisam videla nijednog leptira, a prolece je i zvanicno doslo. Verovatno vec pretpostavljate sta mi je na noktima :). Prvo, zuta boja. Neki kazu da ona oznacava ljubomoru, ali za mene, to je boja Sunca. Dva sloja the Balm - Hella Yella, i preko toga jedan sloj Catherine Arley holographics #801. Napravila sam i swatcheve ova dva, ali posto je sunce vec bilo zaslo, morala sam da slikam u lightbox-u, i to nije ispalo bas realno. Drugi put :). Uglavnom, nakon toga sam htela da pokusam da napravim leptirice sa pecatima, ni to nije  ispalo kako treba. Onda sam uzela tackalo u ruke, i popravila ih da izgledaju onako kako sam ja zamislila.

Today, totally sunny day, but again, not too warm. My favourite weather. It crossed my mind that I haven't seen any butterflies this year, and spring is officially here. You probably already know what is on my nails :).
First, yellow color. Some people says that yellow means jealousy, but for me, it's a color of Sun. Two coats of the Balm - Hella Yella, and on top of it one coat of Catherine Arley #801. I made swatches of these two, but Sun has been already down, so I had to take pictures in my light-box, and that didn't really turned out realistic. Another time :). Anyway, after that I tried to make butterflies with stamping plates, and didn't worked out either. Then I finally took my doting tool in hands, and I fixed them to look exectly how I pictured them in my head.

Da li se vama svidja? Jeste li videli nekog leptira ove godine?

Do you like it? Have you seen any butterflies this year?

Catherine Arley Holographic #667

Prema onome sto sam citala pre porucivanja Catherine Arley holo lakova, ovaj ima najveci holo efekat. Za sada, pokazalo se da je istina, makar u odnosu na crni. Nalakirala sam tri sloja, bez base i top coat-a. Po mom misljenju, predivan je. Potrudila sam se sto sam vise mogla da uhvatim na slikama holo efekat, ali bilo je tesko. Nadam se da cete uspeti da ga vidite :).

According to what I read before I ordered Catherine Arley holo nail polishes, this one has most holo effect. For now, that seems to be true, at least when it's compared with black one. I polished three coats, no base and top coat. In my opinion, it's amazing. I tried my best to capture that holo effect on pictures, but it was really hard. I hope you will see it :).

What do you think about this polish? Do you have problems with taking pictures of holo polishes?

Blue Golden Rose Magnetics #09

Ako se secate, pre par dana sam vam pokazala kako izgleda zeleni lak iz Golden Rose Magnetic kolekcije. Danas cu vam pokazati plavi (iako se ne razlikuje bas toliko od zelenog). Velika prednost ovih magnetik lakova je u tome sto, sa malo vezbe, mozete postici da imate savrsene nokte za par minuta. Treba im jedan sloj, i brzo se suse. Naravno, ja jos nisam stigla da se uvezbam sa magnetom, tako da je moje eksperimentisanje trajalo malo duze. 
Takodje, primetila sam nesto kod magneta. Nije hteo da mi radi na drugom i malom noktu, ni na jednoj ruci. kao da su nekako bili imuni na magnet. Probala sam mnogo toga, i na kraju mi je proradio kad sam ga oprala acetonom (iako na njemu nije bilo laka). Da li se ovo samo meni desava? Mozda je bila samo slucajnost.

If you remember, few days ago I showed you how does green nail polish from Golden Rose Magnetic collection looks like. Today I'm going to show you blue one (although, there is not really much different). Big plus when it comes to these magnetic polishes is that, with little bit of practise, you can have perfect nails in just few minutes. They need one coat, and they dries fast. Of course, I obviously didn't practice enough, so my experiment lasts little bit longer.
Also, I noticed something about this magnet. It didn't wanted to work on my pointer fingers and pinkies, on both hands. They were like immune to magnet.  I tried different things, and in the end, it worked when I washed the magnet with acetone (although, there were no nail polish on it). Does this happen only to me? Maybe it was only coincidence...

Skroz sam se zaljubila u ove lakove. Koje magnetic preporucujete i u kojim bojama? Volela bi da probam neki svetliji.

I'm totally in love with these polishes. Which magnetics do you recommend and in which colors? I would like to  try out something brighter.

St. Patrick’s Day

Znam da mi ne slavimo Dan Sv. Patrika, ali sam naisla na jedno takmicenje na Facebook stranici I'm Still Thinking sa ovom temom. Da budem iskrena, tek kada sam gledala slike na Google-u, videla sam kako ima lepih motiva, i prosto nisam mogla da se odlucim koji da crtam. Zato sam izabrala cetiri : cup sa zlatom, detelinu sa cetiri lista, nesto sto je trebao da bude tamno zeleni meda sa detelinom na stomaku, i dugu. Naravno, sve je nekako u boji ovog praznika - zeleno.

In my country, people doesn't celebrate St. Patrick's Day, but I found one nail art contest on Facebook page I'm Still Thinking with this theme. To be honest, I didn't knew what this holiday represent, so I Googled it, and found a lot of interesting pictures, and I couldn't decide what to draw. So I chose four of them : pot of gold, 4 leaf shamrock, something that should be dark green bear with shamrock on his belly, and a rainbow. Of course, everything is in colors of this holiday - green.

Pa, sta mislite? Sto se tice Dana Sv. Patrika, predlazem vam da procitate malo vise o njemu u zadnjih par postova My Perfect Lounge. Mnogo interesantnih informacija u njenom prepoznatljivom stilu pisanja :).

So, what do you think? For all of you that are celebrating St. Patrick's Day, have a happy day :).
