opi moonraker (skyfall)

ne znam da li me je ikada neka kolekcija toliko raspametila kao je to opi-jeva skyfall. obično sačekam kada je kupovina lakova iz novih kolekcija u pitanju, pregledam milion svočeva po blogovima i razmatram šta, kad i kako, ali ovaj put sam uzela 6 lakova (a možda uzmem još kojeg) a da čak nisam ni videla bočice uživo. prvi kog ću da predstavim je moonraker.

i can't remember the last time i was so psyched about a collection, but opi's skyfall really blew me away. i don't usually buy polishes from as-released collections, i wait and reconsider and search for numerous swatches, but this time i got 6 polishes (might get a couple of more) with out even seeing the bottles in real life. the first one i'm going to present is moonraker.

koliko mogu da primetim, devojke ovaj lak ili vole ili mrze, a ja ga definitivno volim! boja je čelično siva začinjena sa malo plave. na početku, izgleda kao da će finiš biti metalik, ali se suši kao prelepi chrome. tregovi četkice su vidiljivi, i ako imate neravnine na noktima (kao ja), i one će biti u nekoj meri vidljive. ipak, možda je čudno, ali čak mi se i to sviđa. mislim da je najbolji dokaz za to priznanje da sam ga nosila dva puta u ovih 10ak dana.

from what i can see, people either love or hate this polish, and i am definitely on the love team. opi's description: "drive your fastest car to get this exhilarating metallic grey".  the color is steel grey with a hint of blue. when you apply it, the finish looks like it would be metallic, but it dries like a gorgeous chrome. i admit, it is streaky, and if your nails have ridges (like mine), they would be visible, but, weirdly enough, i love the final look. i think that the best evidence of my love for this polish is that i wore it twice in last 10 days.

miss sporty 70 and 27

ovo je još jedan oproštajni post, i ovaj put je red došao na moja dva najstarija laka.

već sam jednom napisala da ovi prastari miss sporty lakovi nemaju imena ni brojeve. doduše, postoji broj urezan na dno bočice, ali se razlikuje za isti lak tako da nije pouzdan.

kada sam prestala da nosim samo crne lakove (što mi je bila faza kroz celo studiranje), nisam previše razmišljala kada sam počela da nosim "boje", pa sam uzela ova dva, jedan sivi essence i neku electric blue coloramu, i mislila sam da sam time pokrila sve :D

prvi na redu je ovaj biserno beli lak koji mi sada deluje čudno na mojim noktima. posle toliko vremena, nema previše smisla da govorim o formuli, ali su potezi četkicom uvek bili vidljivi, dajući mu nekakav frosty ili chrome finiš.

this is another good bye post, and this time for two of my oldest polishes.

i already mentioned that for these polishes the codes and names don't exist. there is a number engraved on the bottle of the polish, but it varied for the same shades.

when i stopped wearing only black polishes (which i did during the college), i didn't think much when i started buying "colors", and i got these two, a grey essence and some kind of electric blue colorama, and thought i got it all covered. silly me :D

this one is a pearly white polish that looks strange on me now. there is no sense to write about the formula, since it is ancient, but the brush strokes were always visible, giving it a frosty, chrome-like finish.

drugi je rozikasto nude lak. još uvek mi je nekako drag, pošto mislim da ide dobro uz moj ten.

this one is a pinkish nude polish. i still have a soft spot in my heart for it, because i think it really looked good on me.

uvek imam neki čudan osećaj kada je vreme da neki lak ide u kantu. i tužna sam, ali i srećna jer se otvara prostor za nove!

koristila sam bazu (opi start to finish) + dva sloja + top coat (essence better than gel nails top sealer BTGNTS).

i alwas have this bittersweet feeling when it's the time to throw a polish in the trash, but the good thing is - it gives you space to buy a new one!

i used base (opi start to finish) + two layers of polish + top coat (essence better than gel nails top sealer BTGNTS).

miss sporty 60 hypnotic turquoise

miss sporty hypnotic turquoise je savršen letnji lak. tirkizna je u poslednjih par godina postala jedna od mojih omiljenih boja, ali ova nijansa mi se nekako odvaja jer se dobije odlična pokrivenost sa dva sloja.

miss sporty  hypnotic turquoise nailpolish is perfect for the summer. it is a rich, turquoise color that i love, and i love that you need two layers for perfect coverage.

nažalost, ovaj lak je udomljen u moje u prošlom postu opisano groblje lakova (bio mi je omiljeni morski lak prošle godine) i, po mojoj proceni, u bočici je ostalo za još 1-2 mazanja. mislim da ova nijansa ne može više da se nađe.

uspelo mi je da zakačim domali prst aparatom, ali nisam imala vremena da stignem da ga popravim (žurila sam na exit :D), tako da se vidi tačkica.

unfortunately, this nailpolish is a part of my nailpolish graveyard mentioned in my previoust post (it was my perfect polish for the seaside), and i think that the bottle containes material for only 1-2 applications. i believe that this shade is discontinued :(.
i somehow managed to damage the polish on the ring finger with my camera, and though i wanted to fix it, i was in a hurry (preparations for the exit festival :D), so there is a visible smudge on it.
