cirque french roast over illasmasqua taint

toliko sam srećna da sam se dokopala cirque laka french roast, i rešila sam da ga kombinujem preko illamasqua taint.

i'm so happy i got my hands on cirque's french roast, and decided to layer it over illamasqua taint.

cirque je 3 free indie firma iz amerike, a french roast pripada kolekciji dark horse. opisuju ga kao "svetlucajući bronzani lak sa šljokicama koji se presijava na zlato i bakar".


ovo je zaista poseban lak. pošto je prilično proziran, pretpostavljam da bi samostalno mogao da ima dovoljnu pokrivenost sa tri sloja, ali mislim da je najbolje koristiti ga kao nadlak. na slikama imam jedan sloj llamasqua taint i dva sloja french roast. šljokice su u bojama od narandžaste i bakarne do boje kafe. ovo je jedan od lakova koji jedu nadlak, namazala sam jedan sloj popodne i izgledao je odlično, ali je ujutro bio malo neravan pa sam dodala još jedan sloj nadlaka.

obožavam što izgleda kao da sija iznutra, i po meni je kao bronzana šljokičava verzija max factor fantasy fire.

prirodna svetlost:

cirque is a 3 free indie brand from america, and french roast is from dark horse collection. they describe it as "a sparkling bronze glitter polish that reflects gold and copper"

it really is an unique polish. since it is rather sheer, i guess it could be opaque enough with three coats, but i think it's best to use it for layering. i had one coat of illamasqua taint and two coats of french roast. the glitter ranges from orange and copper to coffee brown. it is a top coat eater, i put one layer of top coat in the afternoon, when i applied it and it looked good, but when i woke up the next morning, it was gritty so i added another.


i love how it looks like it's glowing. i see it as a  coppery-glittery version of max facotr's fantasy fire.

koristila sam bazu (opi start to finish) + jedan sloj illamasqua taint + dva sloja cirque french roast + dva sloja nadlaka (essence better than gel nails top sealer fast dry).

rešila sam da ne kačim slike taint-a, pošto hoću da verno prikažem njegov gumasti finiš, što znači da nema nadlaka, pa sam se probudila sa izgužvanim lakom. pošto zaslužuje bolje od tih slika, evo samo jedne za ilustraciju:

i used base (opi start to finish) +one layer of  illamasqua taint  + two coat ofcirque french roast + two layers of top coat (essence better than gel nails top sealer fast dry).

i decided not to publish photos of taint itself, since i wanted to show off its rubbery finish, so no top coat, and i woke up with wrinkled polish and it deserves nicer pictures, so here's one just for illustration:
