sponge crackle: essence crack me! black over essence sparkling champagner

sinoć sam proučavala folder sa neobjavljenim slikama, i otkrila da nikad nisam napravila ovaj sponge crackle post, u kom sam koristila essence crack me! black preko  sparkling champagner. slike su iz decembra.

i was going through my unpublished pictures and found out that i never made a post about this sponge crackle manicure, using essence crack me! black over sparkling champagner, that i made back in december.

htela sam da isprobam ovu tehniku od kad sam je videla na colorsofmynails blogu. na kraju sam napravila i istu kombinaciju boja kao ona, ali to nije bilo u planu. namazala sam essence sparkling champagner, ali je moj btgnts bio pri kraju a ja uporna da potrošim i poslednju kap, i kao rezultat sam dobila poneki mehurić. pošto mi se nije menjao lak, rešila sam da zamaskiram štetu ovim interesantnom tehnikom, gde crackle lak nanosite sunđerom. sviđa mi se rezultat, i sigurno ću ponoviti sa drugom kombinacijom boja.

i've been meaning to do this technique ever since i saw it in colorsofmynails blog. it seems that i did the similar color combo as her, but this wasn't really the plan: i intended to wear sparkling champagner, but my btgn top sealer was at it's finish but i was persistent to use even the last drop, and as a result, i got a few bubbles after drying. i wasn't in the mood to change the polish, so i decided to mask it with this interesting approach, where you apply crackle polish with a sponge. i like the result, and i will definitely do it again with different color combos.

crackle: essence pearly pink over essence sparkly silver

još jedan set slika napravljenih pre nekoliko meseci (što se može primetiti i iz oblika mojih noktiju), ali bi od petka trebalo da se vratim na kolosek. essence pearly pink je njihov najnoviji lak iz cracking top coat kolekcije, ali ovaj ima mali zaokret: šljokičav je, sa roze šestougaonicima u roze bazi! i da, ovo je verovatno jedina kombinacija u kom će roze biti na mojim noktima.

another set of pictures from the vault (as can be seen from the shape of my nails), but i hope i'll start posting newer stuff as of friday. essence pearly pink is the newest polish from their cracking top coat range, but this one has a twist to it: it is actually a glitter, with pink hexagons in a pink base. and yes, this is probably the only type of pink i can tolerate on my nails.

kao baznu boju, upotrebila sam već spominjani  essence sparkling silver, sa kojim sam se i igrala. pretpostavljam da je ovo pomalo šljokičava bomba, ali mi se sviđa! perly pink je pomalo redak, ili barem meni tako deluje jer su mis svi ostali crckle lakovi dosta gušći. iz tog razloga, ako želite deblje slojeve, morate raditi brzo. i pukotine koje ostavlja su čudnjikave, napravi se par dugačkih rascepa po noktu.

as a base color, i used already mentioned essence sparkling silver, and played with another topper. i guess it is a bit of a glitter bomb, but i actually like it. pearly pink is a bit shear, or it seems that way to me since the majority of my crackle polishes are rather thick, so you have to work quickly if you want thicker layers. it also cracks weirdly, with a couple of longer cracks.

layering: depend 5003 over depend 252

ovo je trebalo da bude oproštajni post za depend 252, ali se ispostavilo da je oproštajni post i za depend 5003 crackle.

uzela sam ovaj roze crackle od dependa, jer mi je ljubičasti izgledao gotovo crno na noktima, pa sam bila pametna i pomislila da će onda roze da vuče na ljubičasto :D naravno da nije, ali sam našla kombinacije u kojima mi se svidelo kako izgleda, a jedna od njih je bila sa 252 kao bazom.

na žalost, crackle se potpuno osušio kada sam krenula da ga premažem preko 252. nokti su mi izgledali užasno, roze deo se bukvalno ljuštio i izvijao na krajevima, tako da sam ga skinula istog trenutka. zbog toga, imam samo jednu sliku da prikažem, i to od ranije, sa crackle petka.

this was supposed to be a good bye post for depend 252, but it turned out to be a good bye post for 5003.

i got the pink crackle polish from depend because the purple one looked almost black on the nails, and i had a brilliant idea that the pink one would look like purple. of course it didn't :D although i don't like pink on my nails, i found some crackle combinations with it that i liked, and one of them was with 252.

unfortunately, the crackle polish dried out, and when i applied it, it looked horrible, with the ends of patterns bending away from the polish. i removed it all immediately, so i have only one picture to show you, the one from our crackle friday. as well.

ana. rs theme friday

već je 8 nedelja prošlo od prvog "nail challenge-a" na ana.rs forumu. sad smo dobili i svoju temu! iz tog razloga, mislim da je najbolje da moj prvi post bude mali omaž prethodnim danima!

8 fridays ago, nail polish addicts on ana.rs forum decided to have a theme friday, so, my first post will be an omage to the previous challenges!

day 1:mint

day 2: orange

day 3: purple

day 4: glitter

day 5: pink

(nisam učestvovala u ovom danu jer ne nosim pink)

(i skipped this challenge because pink is really not my cup of tea)

day 6: crackle

day 7: yellow

day 8: water marble

(preskočila i ovaj, generalno sam vrhunski smotana za pipave stvari, ali je glavni izgovor da sam bila na putu)

(skipped this one, too. not good with delicate work, but i was also away on a trip)
