franken polish: she's thunderstorms by shine eye

here i am, with another franken. this one is called she's thunderstorms.

as my method of frankening consist of mixing the last droplets of otherwise emptied polishes, it is not a surprise that they end up being either green-ish or blurple-ish.  all of those also end up being shimmers, with an occasional flakie/(holo) glitter. 

she's thunderstorms is from the blurple range, although leaning more to purple. shimmer ended up being very interesting, giving it some bling. i find the song that inspired  its name (by arctic monkeys, of course) fits it beautifully on so many levels.

franken stuck on puzzle by shine eye

danas delim još jednu moju franken avanturu i ovaj lak sam nazvala stuck on puzzle.

i am sharing another of my franken adventures and this one is called stuck on puzzle.

potpuno sam oduševljena kako je stuck on puzzle ispao. ne-toliko-crn crn lak sa suptilnim holo šimerom koji nekako trčkara po površini. jedva čekam sledeću franken avanturu!

ovaj lak sam nazvala po jednoj od mojih omiljenih pesama, stuck on puzzle koju je alex turner napisao za film submarine.

prirodna svetlost:

i am so happy how stuck on puzzle turned out. not-so-black black with such a subtle holo shimmer running all over it. i am kind of looking forward to my other frankening adventures!

this one was named after one of my favourite songs, stuck on puzzle that alex turner did for the submarine movie soundtrack.

franken polish: pattern by shine eye

danas sam raspoložena da pokažem još jedan od mojih franken lakova, a ovaj sam nazvala pattern.

i felt like showing off another one of my franken polishes, and this one is named pattern.

pattern je nekako najbolji pokazatelj činjenice da je većina lakova koje sam potrošila zelena i plava. ovo je zelena koja dosta naginje ka petroleju, sa ljuspičastim srebrnim šimerom.

da sam videla ovakav lak u prodaji, sigurno bih ga uzela, definitivno je moj tip boje. nazvala sam ga po jednoj od mojih omiljenih pesama sa poslednjeg albuma the last shadow puppets.

prirodna svetlost:

pattern actually shows that the majority of the polishes i used up are all sorts of greens and blues. it is a teal-leaning green, with some flaky type of silver shimmer.

if i saw this polish in a store, i would definitely get it. it really is my type of shade. i named it after of of my favourite songs from the last shadow puppets' last album.

franken polish: star bwoy by shine eye

nakon što sam pokazala moj prvi franken lak, time for heroes, danas sam se odlučila za mog ljubimca, star bwoy.

after showing my first franken polish, time for heroes, today i decided on my personal favourite, star bwoy.

potpuno sam oduševljena kako je ispalo "kuvanje" ovog laka. star bwoy je fantastična ljubičasta sa dosta srednje plavog podtona. holo čestice su se odlično uklopile, kao da igraju po površini nokta.

iz nekog razloga, dok sam još bila na pola puta do gotovog laka ali sam znala na koje bočice čekam, osećala dam da moram da ga nazvem star bwoy po mavado-voj pesmi.

izvinjavam se za ovoliko slika, ali ne mogu da odolim!

i am completely amazed as how star bwoy turned up to be. the shade itself is gorgeous, light purple with medium blue undertones. and the holo effect just makes everything so awesome, like it's dancing on top of the nail.

for some reason, while my frankening was only half way done, but i knew which polishes i'm waiting for, i just knew that i will name it after mavado's song star bwoy.

sorry for all the pictures, but it's just so stunning!

franken polish: time for heroes by shine eye

a sada nešto potpuno drugačije, prvi od mojih franken lakova, time for heroes!

and now, something completely different: the first of my franken nailpolishes, time for heroes!

 

već nekoliko godina, kada sam pri kraju nekog laka i on dođe u stadijum u kom morate da zabijete četkicu duboko u flašicu da izvučete još koju kap laka, rešila sam da je život prekratak za takve akcije i samo ga presula u praznu bočicu. na kraju sam imala 6-7 bočica u te svrhe, i dodavala ostatke po osećaju.

nekako sam napunila više flašica u isto vreme, i rešila da počnem da pokazujem svoje kreacije. i gde god se pojavi novi lak, jedna od najzabavnijih stvari je smisliti mu ime. odlučila sam da imam muzičku temu, i prvi među njima je nazvan po the libertines pesmi time for heroes, jer mi je jedan od najboljih momentata godine prvi odlazak na njihov koncert.

time for heroes je uz to i moja omiljena nijansa, maslinasto zelena. ne previše tamna, uz dosta šimera. ko zna koji lakovi su morali da se žrtvuju za njegov nastanak, ali je bar rezultat dobar.

for years now, when i am about to finish the bottle of nailpolish, and it gets to that stage when you have to dig deep to get to use up a drop or two, i decided that life is too short for nail polish scraping, so i just pour it into an empty bottle. in the end, i had about 6 or 7 bottles for that purpose, and adding the leftovers by the hunch.

somehow i filled a few bottles at the same time, and decided to start showing off my creations. and where there is a new polish, there is the fun time of naming it. i decided to go with a music theme, so the first one will be named after the libertines song time for heroes, since one of the highlights of my year was seeing this very important band for me for the first time.

time for heroes' main theme is my favourite colour, olive green. not too dark, and filled with shimmer. who knows which polishes had to die in order for it to arise, but it's all for the best.
