catrice i wear my sunglasses at night (440)

nastavljam sa starim svočevima koji su čekali svoj momenat da ugledaju svetlost dana, i danas je red došao za catrice oldtajmera, i wear my sunglasses at night.

i am continuing with the old swatches that have been waiting for their time, and today i'm showing a catrice oldie, i wear my sunglasses at night.

ovaj lak je jedan od prvenaca mog lakoholizma, i uz to i moje prvo razočarenje. samo gledajući bočicu, neiskusna kakva sam bila, očekivala sam da bude više poput deborah shine tech 18 (kog zaista moram ponovo da  uslikam). vremenom sam naučila da ga volim zbog onoga što jeste, a to je crni lak sa puno raznobojnih ljuspica.


moj najveći problem sa ovim lakom je da mu se formula vrlo brzo pogoršala. napravila sam grešku da ga nisam odmah slikala, jer je postao istovremeno gust i tečan, i sušio se bez sjaja. slike nisu tako dobre, ali pošto je davno potrošen, a nekako nikad nisam uspela da napravim bolje, šta je tu je.


prirodna svetlost:

i got this one in my nail polish beginnings, and i remember it being my first letdown. from the look from the bottle, unexperienced as is was back then, i expected it to be more like deborah shine tech 18 (that i seriously need to reswatch soon). with time, i learned to appreciate it for what it is, a black polish full with multicolored glass flecks.

my biggest problem with this polish though, is that the formula became funny really quickly. i made a mistake of not swatching it properly immediately. it became at the same time too thick and runny and drying to a dull finish. the swatches are not that good, but since this polish is long gone and i never managed to make them better, this will have to do.

natural light:

koristila sam bazu (china glaze strong adhesion) + dva sloja laka + nadlak (essence btgnts).

i used base (china glaze strong adhesion) + two layers of polish + top coat (essence btgnts).
