picture polish big bang (collaboration shade)

vreme je za još jednu picture polish kolaboraciju, ovaj put big bang, kreiran u saradnji sa la npa mouton.

it's time for another picture polish collaboration shade, this time big bang, created with la npa mouton.

big bang je kompleksni lepotan! nijansa je blurple sa nešto jačim plavim tonom, i raznobojnim šljokicama. i zaista mislim raznobojnim, jer nema boje koja se ne pojavljuje. lak je dubok, bogat i kompleksan, pravo savršenstvo.

formula je odlična, pokriva u dva sloja i jedan je od mojih omiljenijih novijih pp lakova. na žalost, moje slike ne dočaravaju potpuno njegovu lepotu.

prirodna svetlost:

big bang is such a complex beauty! the shade is blue leaning blurple, with multicoloured, and i mean multicoloured because i can see pretty much everything, glitter. it is deep, rich, complex, in one word, a stunner!

formula is awesome, opaque in two coats, and one of my favourite recent pp shades. my pictures, sadly, don't do it justice.

china glaze water you waiting for (cirque du soleil worlds away)

cirque du soleil worlds away je bila vrlo zabavna china glaze kolekcija, i jedan od lakova koje sam uzela je water you waiting for.

cirque du soleil worlds away was a really awesome china glaze collection, and one of the polishes i got is water you waiting for.

water you waiting for je prelepa šljokičava bomba u plavoj jelly bazi sa plavim i zelenim šljokicama.

ako vas podseća na  nicole by opi kendall on the catwalk, to je zato što su skoro pa identični. šljokice u nopi laku su gušće, i to je otprilike cela razlika.

u svakom slučaju, ovo je vrlo lep i zabavan lak, sa pristojnom formulom, dobrim pokrivanjem u dva sloja i suši se pomalo teksturno.

prirodna svetlost:

water you waiting for is a gorgeous, glittery bomb of blue jelly base and blue and green glitter.

if it reminds you of nicole by opi kendall on the catwalk, let me say, they are very, very close to being dupes. the glitter in nopi is slightly denser, and that's about it.

nevertheless, it is a great and fun polish, with a decent formula, opaque after two coats, and dries into sort of texture.

china glaze liquid crystal (prismatic)

prismatic kolekcija od china glaze iz davne 2012 je veoma interesantan skup duohrom šljokičavih lakova, i liquid crystal je bio moj izbor.

prismatic collection by china glaze back in 2012 was a very interesting collection of duochrome glitters, and liquid crystal was my pick.

liquid crystal je zaista interesantan lak i "plavac" ove kolekcije. glavna nijansa je svetlija plava, ispunjena svim mogućim šljokicama, od srebrne, zelene, ljubičaste, narandžaste, ma sve što vam padne na pamet! suši se gotovo kao teksturac ali ne previše grbavo.

duohrom efekat nije pretarano izražen, ali opet vidljiv. odlučila sam da ne nosim nadlak.

prirodna svetlost:

liquid crystal is a really interesting polish and the "blue" one of the collection.  the main shade is a soft blue, filled with multicolored glitter. really, you can find everything here: silver, green, purple, orange, you name it. it dries almost textured but not too gritty!

the colour shift is not that strong but it's still visible. i decided to pass on the top coat here.

nopi kendall on the catwalk (kardashian kolors collection)

kendall on the catwalk je jedan od mojih najstarijih lakova koji još čekaju na objavu. deo je kardashian kolors kolekcije za nicole by opi davne 2011te.

kendall on the catwalk is one of my oldest polishes that are waiting for the review. it was a part of the kardashian kolors collection for nicole by opi back in 2011.

kendall on the catwalk je baš zabavan lak. u jelly plavoj bazi su se skupile plave, ljubičaste i zelene šljokice. kombinacija boja je odlična i upečatljiva.

dobra vest je da su dva sloja dovoljna. suši se pomalo hrapavo pa je potreban nadlak, ali je jedan sloj dovoljan. naravno, smatram da sve šljokice moraju da se matiraju, kao što vidite na donje dve slike.

prirodna svetlost, nadlak

kendall on the catwalk is a really fun polish. blue, purple and green glitter are suspended in a blue jelly base. i love the glitter combination, it really pops out.

good news, two coats are enough. it dries a bit dull so it requires a top coat, but one layer is enough. of course, glitter should also be mattified, which i did in the pictures below.

picture polish illusionist (limited edition)

nisam mogla da odolim a da ne namažem illusionist iz picture polish limited edition kolekcije samo par dana nakon što sam skinula auroru.

i couldn't resist wearing illusionist from picture polish limited edition collection just a couple of days after wearing aurora.

ok, da kažem samo da sam zaljubljena u ovaj lak je preslaba izjava. nosila sam ovu kombinaciju tri dana a to mi se poslednji put desilo... ni ne znam kad! imam samo jedan problem: ovaj lak toliko odvlači pažnju, da sam hvatala sebe na poslu kako samo gledam u nokte!

illusionist je sestrinski lak aurori, uz dodatak čestica koje mu daju rasejani holo efekat, tako da daje pravi utisak galaksija. slike su najvernije pod belom lampom, jer zbog holo efekta, sunce ih čini nekako maglovitim.

dominantne boje su petrolej zelena (a england saint george tipa) i ljubičasta, uz dodatak plave, crvene pa čak i roze pod određenim uglovima. ponovo, nosim jedan sloj preko crnog alessandro laka iz seta crystal punk. sad sam stvarno nestrpljiva da probam i altered state.

veštačka bela svetlost:

ok, to say that i'm in love would be an understatement. i wore this combo for three days, and this last happened.... well, i have no idea when! i have only one problem with it: it is seriously distracting. i would catch myself sitting at work, just looking at my nails!

itis a sisterly polish to aurora, with addition of scattering holo particles, so this is a galaxy type of polish at it's finest. again, the pictures look best taken in artificial white light, because of the particles, sunlight makes them somehow cloudy.

the dominant colors are teal green (of a england saint george type) and purple, but with hints of blue, red and pink in certain angles. again, i'm wearing one coat over alessandro black out of crystal punk set. now i'm really anxious to try altered state!

holo skittles

prethodna forumska tema je bila skittles. od početka sam imala ideju da napravim holo varijantu, jer, iako mi se najviše sviđaju pastelni skittles noktići, nemam ni jednog pastelca a kamo li da imam dovoljan izbor za skittles.

izbor je pao na china glaze fyi, color club fashion addict, depend 2027, 2032 i 2035.

the previous theme last week was skittle. from the beginning, i had an idea to do a holo version of skittles. even though my favorite combo is with pastel polishes, i don't own any, let alone enough to do a skittle mani!

my choice of polishes was china glaze fyi, color club fashion addict, depend 2027, 2032 and 2035.

problem je nastao jer sam bila na službenom putu od petka ujutro, i nije bilo prilike da namažem skittles nokte. srećna sam da na posao mogu da nosim kakve god lakove poželim, ali kada idem na konferencije i slično, ipak mislim da nije baš sve prikladno. avion mi je sleteo u sredu kasno uveče, i nisam se ni raspakovala kako treba, ali sam morala da namažem nokte u poslednjoj prilici za tematski petak!

na žalost, nisam znala da će seo četvrtak (juče) padati kiša, tako da je holo efekat skoro pa nevidljiv. ipak, sviđa mi se kako je ispalo.

prirodna svetlost:

the biggest probem was that i was on a work trip since friday morning, and there was no way i could do a skittles mani. i'm happy that i can wear any polish i want to work, but when i'm going on conferences, i don't think that everything's appropriate. so, my plane landed on wendesday evening, and i didn't even unpack completely, but i had to do a theme friday mani :D


unfortunately, i wasn't aware that it will be raining the entire thursday, so the holo effect of the polishes was poor, but i liked how it turned out anyway.

opi simmer and shimmer (burlesque collection)

simmer and shimmer je deo opijeve holiday kolekcije za 2010, burlesque.

simmer and shimmer was a part of opi's holiday collection burlesque in 2010. opi's tagline: "a glitter bit of blue".

izvor-source

kao što svi već znamo, volim šljokičave bombe, i ovaj lak nije izuzetak. sastoji se od providne baze pune raznobojnih šestougaonih šljokica. plava je najdominantnija, pa zatim srebtna, zlatna, ciklama i poneka zelena i narandžasta šljokica, dajući pretežno zimsko-plavi izgled.

pokrivenost je bila dovoljna sa dva srednje debela sloja. nije mi bio plan da imam ovoliki razmak do zanoktica, to je posledica dva efekta, skupljanja zbog sušenja peel off baze (trebalo je da pustim koji minut duže da se suši) i dva sloja nadlaka..

prirodna svetlost:

as we all know, i am a fan of glitter bombs, and this one is no exception. it consists of a clear base full with multicolored hexagonal glitter, with the blue being the most dominant, followed by silver, gold, fucsia and occasional green and orange, giving an overall wintery blue look.


it was opaque with two medium thick layers. i didn't intend to have such a large gap from the cuticles, it was an effect of shrinking due to the peel of base coat (i probably should've let it dry a bit longer) and two layers of top coat.

china glaze it's a trap-eze! + comparison with golden rose jolly jewels 115

za ovaj tematski petak se mažemo golden rose jolly jewels ili njima slične lakove. pošto sam već predstavila oba moja jj laka, 106 i 115, jedina opcija mi je china glaze it's a trap-eze!ovaj lak je deo jedne od njihovih novijih kolekcija, cirque du soleil worlds away.

for this theme friday, we are supposed to wear golden rose jolly jewels or their lookalikes. since i already presented both of my jj polishes, 106 and 115, my only option was china glaze it's a trap-eze! this polish is a part of their fairly recent cirque du soleil worlds away collection.

ok, da počnemo sa nečim što već svi znamo, a to je da su trapez i  gr jj 115 skoro pa identični: prljavo bela baza prepuna raznobojnih šljokica: zelenih, roze, belih, narandžastih, plavih.. ovo je prvi lak koji mi je privukao pažnju iz te kolekcije, i volim da ga nosim kada pada sneg.

namazala sam dva sloja preko essence peel off baze i premazala jednim  debljim slojem btgnts.

ok, let's start by stating the obvious. this polish and gr jj 115 are pretty much dupes, a dirty white base full with multicolored glitter. it was the first polish from this collection that got my attention, and i like having it on my nails in this winter time.


i wore two coats of polish over  essence peel off  base coat and sealed it with thick coat of btgnts.

golden rose jolly jewels 115

i must congratulate the turkish company, golden rose, on this jolly jewels collections. the polishes like this are usually connected with indie brands, therefore, hard to find if you are not a polish addict. i got two of those when i was home in serbia last week, and i'm presenting my favorite from this collection, 115. it is such a shame that beauties these don't have names :(

115 is a dupe to china glaze's it's a trap-eze from the  cirque du soleil collection, but i was scared that it would never arrive to serbia so i decided to get this one after all.

i seriously dreamed of having a polish like this, and i also realized that it is weird that my association with it is bubblegum, even though i can't pinpoint it to a single one. weird. it is a dirty white base full with multicolored glitter: green, pink, white, orange, blue, you name it! i love this polish, it looks so fun but not over the top.

essence chic reloaded (colour&go 122)

essence 122 chic reloaded je prvi lak koji sam uzela otkako je essence promenio bočice. boja je savršena i neobična, a ako ste dovoljno pažljivi, formula je dovoljno dobra da vam treba samo jedan sloj. negde sam pročitala da bi ovo trebalo da bude nova verzija where's the party, ali taj lak nije ni blizu lep kao ovaj!

essence 122 chic reloaded is my first polish in their new bottle. the color itself is rich and amazing, as is the formula, since the polish can be a one-coater, if you are patient enough. i read somewhere that this should be a new take on where's the party, but that polish has nothing on chic reloaded!

priznajem, uvek sam smotana kad prvi put mažem neki brend, a pošto je ovo nova bočica, može se reći da mi je sve bilo novo. četkica je deblja. što meni savršeno odgovara, ali... iako mi je nova ambalaža predivna, čini mi se da je grlo bočice predugačko, i kod svakog nanosa, imala sam problem: ili nisam umočila četkicu dovoljno duboko pa nisam ništa ni pokupila, ili sam to radila preduboko, i onda imala previše laka. nadam se da je ovo samo početna nesigurnost, i da će već sa sledećim mazanjem biti bolje.

zbog toga i imam dva sloja laka, da popravim brljotine iz prvog pokušaja, ali je jedan bio sasvim dovoljan za pokrivenost. ali, boja je presavršena da bih obraćala pažnju na ovakve detalje. :)
prirodna svetlost:

i admit, i am always a bit clumsy when i'm trying a new brand, which was almost the case here, since essence changed the bottle. the brush is quite wider, which suits me, but... even though i love the new bottle, it seems that the bottle neck is a bit too high, so i had problems with the application: either i dipped the brush to deep and got too much polish, or i dipped it less than needed to get the right amount of polish for good application. i guess that this was just a beginner's mistake, and that with time, i will get better.

this is why i had two coats, to even out the mistakes of the first, but the opacity was good enough for just the one. but, the color is so amazing that i'm going to forget these troubles.
