ysl rose scabiosa (spring 2014)

rose scabiosa je deo ysl dua za proleće 2014, zajedno sa lakom rouge pablo.

rose scabiosa was a part of ysl spring 2014 nail polish duo, together with rouge pablo.

ako ste bili na mom blogu više od jednom, znate da roze nije moja boja, sem ako je u pitanju ysl lak.

rose scabiosa je skoro barby roze, sa blagim lila podtonom koji ga, bar u mom slučaju, čine nosivijem. u pitanju je ysl krema, tako da, u pitanju je savršena formula.

prirodna svetlost:

if you were on my blog more than once, you know i don't gravitate towards pink polishes, unless if it is a ysl polish.

rose scabiosa is almost a bubblegum pink, with a slight lilac undertone that makes it more wearable in my case. it is a ysl creme, so, perfect formula and application.

ysl savage pink (escape summer)

najnovija ysl kolekcija, escape summer, sadrži dva laka i danas predstavljam savage pink.

the newest ysl collection called escape summer has two polishes, and i am showing savage pink today.

obožavam i ysl kao brend i teksturne lakove generalno, tako da je ovo za mene definitivni pogodak. savage pink je više gold rose nego obična roze, pogotovo zbog finiša. jeste teksturac, ali sa dodatim finim holo šljokicama za efektniji izgled.

formula je odlična, uz malo pažnje lako može biti jednoslojac ali sam se ja odlučila za dva. stvarno sam oduševljena ovim lako,

prirodna svetlost:

i love both ysl as a brand and textured polishes in general, so this was a no miss for me. savage pink is more like a rose gold shade, especially because of the finish. it is a texture, but with added fine holographic glitter for a sparkier effect.

formula is great, with a bit of care you can go with one coat only, but i opted for two, it's gorgeous and sparkly and just perfect!

ysl opulente cannelle (spicy)

spicy je veoma zaniljiva ysl kolekcija iz proleća 2014. opulente cannelle je jedan od šest lakova iz ove kolekcije.

spicy was a very interesting collection from ysl back in spring 2014. opulente cannelle is one of the six polishes from this collection.

opulente cannelle je vrlo nezgodna nijansa za opisivanje. naučila sam da cannelle znači cimet na francuskom, i nekako mi ima smisla jer ima nekako cimetkast izgled.

nijansa je negde između srednje braon i onih prašnjavih roze boja. meni je nekako čudno lep, ali verujem da zavisi dosta od tona kože. formula je potpuno savršena.

prirodna svetlost:

opulente cannelle is very difficult shade to describe. i learned that cannelle actually means cinnamon in french, and it makes sense, it doeas have this cinnamony look.

the shade is somewhere between medium brown and those dusty rose colours. i find it strangley pretty, but i agree that it depends a lot on the skin tone. formula is impeccable.

natural light:

ysl rose futuriste (11)

vreme je za još jedan ysl lak, i ovaj put biram rose futuriste.

it's time for another ysl polish, and i'm choosing rose futuriste.

stalno ponavljam da roze nije moja boja, i to zaista jeste istina. mislim da nikada nisam posedovala ništa roze od odeće. ipak, u poslednje vreme, roze se nekako ušunjava na moje nokte i krivim ysl za to.

malo me je i sramota da kažem da baš volim ovaj lak. iako se može nazvati barbie pink, ne izgleda jeftino. uz plavi podton, izgleda živahno i nekako veselo. formula je besprekorna, i zaista ga preporučujem.

prirodna svetlost:

i keep saying that pink is not my colour, and it really is true. i never owned any clothes in pink. but it seems that this shade is creeping in on my nails, and ysl is to blame.

i am embarrassed to say that i really love this polish. it is essentially a barbie pink sort of shade, but it doesn't look cheap. it's blue toned, vivid and somehow cheerful, formula is impeccable, and i'm really recommending this one.

opi tapestry (designer series 29)

danas pokazujem tapestry, jedan stariji lak iz opi designer series kolekcije.

i am showing one of the older opi designer series polishes, tapestry.

opi designer series mi je dugo bila slaba tačka, jer do ne toliko davno nije bilo lako dokopati se holo laka.

tapestry je nijansa koju mi je teško opisati (crvene boje su mi problematične.) crveni ton preovlađuje, ali ima dosta roze pa čak i narandžastih podtonova. formula je odlična.

prirodna svetlost:

i had a soft spot for opi's designer series, since back in the days there was not that many holos.

tapestry is a soft shade with a colour that is hard to explain (well, for me, reds are problematic). it's mostly a red shade, with a lot of pink and even orangey undertones. formula is really nice.

natural light:

picture polish sizzle (collaboration with cosmetic sanctuary)

sizzle is yet another picture polish collaboration shade, this time with cosmetic sanctuary.

if there was one thing  to be sure of, is that i would not wear a pink polish. least of all, an almost neon one. but yet, i found myself looking at the swatches of this one so often, completely shocked that i like it so much. so, i decided to cut my out of my misery and finally get it.

i believe i made the right decision! it is bright, really sizzling crelly, with tiny silver holo paricles that gives it even more depth. it is absolutely gorgeous!

ysl rose abstrait (24)

ove slike su nastale pre više meseci, tako da je vreme da ih konačno predstavim, u pitanju je ysl rose abstrait.

these pictures were made a while ago, so it's time to put them out in the open. this pretty thing is ysl's rose abstrait.

ovo je jednostavan lak koji se ne izdvaja preterano, ali kada ga jednom namažete, lako ga je zavoleti. rose abstrait daje noktima prirodan, mlečno roze, sveži izgled.

u poslednje vreme sam u nude raspoloženju, i ovaj je divan!

oblačno vreme:

it is a simple polish, doesn't stand out much from the crowd, but once you have it on, it's easy to love it. it gives the nails natural, rosy, milky look that just makes them look fresh.

i am into nudish shades lately, and this one is just perfect.

ysl rose romantique (core 26)

posle mnogo živahnih bojica, vreme je za nešto neutralnije, pa pokazujem ysl rose romantique iz njihove osnovne linije.

after many vibrant colors, it's a time for something more on the neutral side, so i'm showing ysl rose romanitque from their core line.

bilo je krajnje vreme da nabavim nude lak. ali stvarno nude, koji ostavlja utisak da u stvari ni ne nosite lak. možda je malo preterano da se okrenem ysl za nešto ovog tipa, ali pošto ih obožavam i pokušavam da uđem u sistem minimizovanja brendova, ipak mi je bilo logično.

smešno je da sam ovaj lak planirala za situacije kad moram ali nemam vremena da promenim lak, i mislila sam da ću morati da se načekam za ovakvu situaciju. ipak, to se desilo u prvoj nedelji od kad sam ga uzela. spremala sam se za rođendansku večeru, i odjednom promenila plan šta ću obući, a nova kombinacija se nikako nije slagala s bronzanim lakom kog sam nosila. imala sam samo nekoliko minuta, pa sam skinula stari, na brzinu namazala rose romantique, bez baze, ali sa nadlakom (jer mi je on još više važan kad sam u žurbi), i to je bilo to.

interesantno, ali krajnji rezultat me je oduševio. možda zato što nisam toliko dugo gledala svoje gole nokte, postala sam opsednuta i nosila ga dva dana, uz stalno zagledanje. slike ne pokazuju koliko dobro je izgledao. boja je samo nijansu više roze nego bezbojan, ali daje noktima zdrav, svež izgled. nanošenje je bilo super jednostavno.

prirodna svetlost:

i thought it was about time for me to get a nude polish. a real nude, you're-barely-wearing-anything kind of a shade. maybe it is overindulging to go to ysl for this, but since i am in love with them and trying to do the whole minimizing the brands thing, it was only logical.

it's funny, i planned  this polish for situations when i don't have the time but need to change my polish, and i seriously thought i will have to wait a while for this to happen, but it was in the same week as i got it. i went for a birthday dinner, completely changed my what to wear plan, and the new outfit was completely off for the bronze polish i was wearing, and i had just a couple of minutes. so, i took off the old one, splashed easy two coats of rose romantique, base coat free, added a topcoat (it is even more important to add it if you're in a hurry), and that was it.

strangely, i loved the end result. maybe because i didn't look at my bare nails for so long, but i was obsessed with them and wore this for two days. the images don't show how amazing it looked. the color is just a tad pink over being completely colourless, but it gives the nails the healthy, fresh look. and the application was super easy.

ysl rouge pablo (spring 2014)

today's star is ysl rouge pablo, part of their spring duo but promoted to the core line.

honestly, i wouldn't even look at this poslish if it was another brand. but, since ysl polishes are my true loves, i keep an open mind for every bottle they release.

i actually felt great wearing this. it's a very vibrant red with a strong pink undertone, but with my skintone, it goes more fuchsia then red. as usual, this is a perfect, buttery creme, amazing formula!

opi meet me at the star ferry (hong kong)

meet me on the star ferry  iz opi hong kong kolekcije za proleće 2010 je, bar za mene, boja za starije gospođe ali sa tvistom.

meet me on the star ferry from opi's hong kong collection back in spring 2010 for me is a granny colour with a twist!

oduvek sam imala pomešana osećanja prema ovom laku. izgledao mi je zanimljiv u bočici, ali iako obično ne razmišljam o tome da li mi neka nijansa stoji ili ne ako mi se lak sviđa, za ovog sam se plašila da će mi ruke izgledati staro. izgleda da se to ipak nije desilo!

boja je baš teška za opisivanje. po meni, uglavnom je prljavo rozikasti mauve, ali može da povuče i na šljivasto, ljubičasto, roze pa čak i braon. zlatni šimer je dominantan, ali ima dosta raznobojnog šimera. i finiš je malo pipav za opisivanje. nije očigledna folija, ali nije ni jednostavni šimerasti lak.

počela sam sa dva sloja laka, bez nadlaka, ali sam ujutro i na direktnom suncu shvatila da imam poneko ćelavo mesto, pa sam dodala još jedan sloj o nadlak. formula i čestkica su tipičnog opi kvaliteta i jednostavni za korišćenje.

prirodna svetlost:

i always had mixed feelings about this polish. it looks interesting in a bottle, but even though i really don't care if a color suits me as long as i like it, i was scared that this one will make me look lake an old lady, but it looks like it didn't!


the color is so difficult to explain. to me, it's mostly rosey mauve, but it can look like plum, purple, pink and even brown. gold shimmer is dominant, but there is also a variety of shimmery particles in it. the finish is also a bit tricky to describe, it is not an obvious foil, but it's not a simple shimmery polish either.

i started with two coats without a topcoat, but in the morning and direct sunlight, i saw some bald spots so decided on adding another layer plus topcoat. formula and brush are of typical opi quality and easy to work with.

opi pink of hearts 2012: you glitter be good to me & i think in pink

a sada, nešto sasvim drugačije - ja nosim roze lak! predstavljam opi set  pink of hearts (2012), iz serije koju prave za borbu protiv raka dojke. bazna boja je i think in pink a šljokice se zovu you glitter be good to me.

and now, something completely different, i'm wearing pink! this is opi's set pink of hearts for breast cancer awareness 2012, the base color is  i think in pink and the glitter is called  you glitter be good to me.

izvor-source

i think in pink se najbolje može opisati kao bubblegum roze (ne znam kako bih to rekla na srpskom.) prilično je proziran posle prvog sloja, a iako se vidi linija nokta i nakon drugog, boja se lepo gradi. svidelo mi se kako mi stoji sa dva sloja, pa sam se tu i zaustavila. formula je generalno bila dobra.

you glitter be good to me je sastavljen od manjih svetlo roze šljokica i krupnijih ciklamastih šestougaonika u providnoj bazi. bio je prilično jednostavan za mazanje, kad se uzme u obzir da je šljokičav. koristila sam ga samo na domalom prstu u jednom sloju, ali mislim da bi mogao da se nosi samostalno sa dva ili tri sloja

prirodna svetlost:

i think in pink can be best explained as bubblegum pink. it is a bit sheer after the first coat, and even though there is still visivle nail line after the second, the color really builds up. i liked how it looked with two layers on me, so i stopped there. the formula is overall very easy to work with.


you glitter be good to me is composed of light pink glitter and larger magenta hexagons in a clear base. it is pretty easy to work with, considering it is a glitter polish. i used it only for the accent nail, but i think it could be opaque on its own after two or three coats.

chanel rose confidentiel (fall 2010)

na prvi pogled, rose confidentiel je potpuno atipična boja za mene. tražila sam nešto slično baš dugo, i fifth avenue od china glaze je bio moj prvi izbor, ali ga nikad nije bilo kad sam ulazila u neki od sun-ova.

rose confidentiel je bio ljubav na prvi pogled, i kad sam spomenula na roze forumu da mi je na listi za kupovinu, fantastična i neverovatna ix me je kontaktirala i rekla da ga ona ima i uopšte ne maže, pa mi ga je poslala! ne mogu ni da opišem koliko sam se oduševila, i koristim i ovu priliku da joj se zahvalim!

at the first look, rose confidentiel is a completely atypical color for me. i've been looking for something similar for a while, with china glaze's fifth avenue as my first pick, but it was always out of stock when i looked for it.

i fell in love with rose confidentiel, and mentioned that it was on my wishlist on one serbian forum for polish addicts, and wonderful & completely amazing ix contacted me and told me she has a bottle she never uses, and she gave it to me! many thanks, once again!

ovaj lak je deo chanel-ove kolekcije za jesen 2010, zajedno sa  rose cache i rouge fatal. rose confidentiel je prelepa nude roze-bež krema sa braon podtonom, ili, kraće rečeno, dusty roze (nekako mi naša reč "prašnjava" odudara, ako neko ima bolji predlog, neka kaže!). iskreno mislim da sam ubola premiju sa ovim lakom, i da mi ide odlično uz ten, barem sad, dok sam bleda. videćemo kako će biti kad dobijem malo boje.
formula je predivna, potpuna pokrivenost u dva sloja a čak mi ni uska četkica nije smetala.

prirodna svetlost:

it was a part of chanel's autumn collection in 2010, together with rose cache and rouge fatal. it is amazing nude rose-beige pink creme with some brown undertones, or, as i like to call it, dusty pink. i honestly think i scored a jackpot with this polish, and i love the way it goes against my skintone, at least in the winter, we'll see how it goes when i actually catch some sun.

formula is amazing, like butter, with complete opacity after two layers. i even didn't mind the narrow brush.

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.
prirodna svetlost:

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.

opi the world is not enough

sledeći lak iz opi skyfall kolekcije koji predstavljam je  the world is not enough. opi ga opisuje kao roze srebrnog.

the next polish from opi's skyfall collection that i'm going to show is the world is not enough. opi's description: this rosy silver is as addictive as it is beautiful.

volela bih da znam kako da opišem ovu boju, pošto je zaista kameleon. za mene je on srebrnkasto-taupe baza sa rozikastim, braon, srebrnim i zlatnim krupnim šimerom. prvi sloj je prilično providan, sa drugim se već dobija dubina ali sam zbog slikanja rešila da stavim i treći. mislim da ću se sledeći put zadovoljiti i sa dva. ako izostavimo pokrivenost, formula je standardno dobra.
prirodna svetlost:

i wish i knew how to explain this color, because it really is a chameleon. i see it as a silvery taupe base with rosy pink, brown, silver and gold shimmer. first coat is somewhat sheer, but it gains depth with the second one. i decided on a third for the purpose of photographing, but i think i will use two in the future. other than being shear, formula is good as usual.

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).

essence glamorous life (colour&go 91)

kupila sam essence 91 glamorous life iako nije moja standardna boja pošto mi je izgledao primamljivo na polici. prvi put kad sam ga namazala, izgledao mi je čudno na noktima pa sam ga skinula a da nije izdržao ni jedan dan. razlog za to je što je tad bio početak proleća i moj ten je i dalje bio vampirski beo. sada kad sam uhvatila nešto sunca, izgleda mnogo bolje!

i bought  essence 91 glamorous life even though it's not my usual color because it looked so yummy in the bottle. but, the first time i had it on, it looked weird on me so i took it off after less than one day. the reason why i was so unhappy with it is probably because i bought it in the beginning of spring, when i was still so horribly pale. now that i have some color on me, i like it much more!

boju nije lako opisati. recimo da je to hladna malinasto crvena jelly osnova sa roze staklastim šimerom koji na noktima izgleda srebrnkasto. komplikovano, zar ne, ali predivno! formula je nešto ređa, što se i očekuje od želea, ali se nanosi lako (ja sam generalno zadovoljna essence formulom). šljokice su baš sitne, tako da ne ostavljaju grubu teksturu na noktima i oni su glatki i bez nadlaka. takođe, lak je visokog sjaja pa nadlak nije neophodan ali ja ne mogu da se zamislim bez BTGNTS. čak mi se i sviđa što je malo prozirniji, jer se šimer nazire kroz sve slojeve laka, i nije koncentrisan samo na gornjem sloju.
prirodna svetlost:

the polish itself is not so easily described. it is a cooled raspberry red jelly base with pink glass flecks that look silvery on nails. complicated, right? but gorgeous! formula is a bit on the thin side, which is expected for jellies, but the application is easy, as it usually is with essence polishes. the glass flecked glitter is quite fine, so it doesn't leave textured feel even without top coat. also, it is quite shiny on its own,  but i can't imagine not wearing top coat. i actually like that it's sheer, because the glass fleck somehow "jump out"  through all the coats.

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
