opi on her majesty's secret service (skyfall collection)

danas predstavljam opi on her majesty secret service iz skyfall kolekcije, i u ovom slučaju preporučujem da kliknete na slike i tako ih uvećate, da bi se videla cela njegova lepota!

when it comes to opi on her majesty secret service for the skyfall collection, i recommend clicking on photos and thus enlarging them, in order to see it's extraordinary beauty!

opi kaže da ova "mistično-zelena kalajna nijansa zahteva pažnju". moram priznati da do sad nisam znala za nijansu kalaja :D ja ga vidim kao plavičastog brata the world is not enough, i podjednako nezgodnog za opisivanje. boja je hladna čelično plavo-srebrno-siva sa raznobojnim staklastim šimerom, uglavnom zlatnim, roze, zelenim i plavim.
nije previše pigmentovan i potrebna su mu tri sloja, opet kao kod njegovog blatnjavijeg brata, ali se pokrivenost i boja lepo nadograđuju.

dosta devojaka se žalilo na čudnjikav miris, ali moj je imao tipični miris običnog laka.

prirodna svetlost:

opi says that "this misty-green pewter commands attention." i see it as the world is not enough's bluish brother, and similarly difficult to describe. it is a cool toned steel blue-pewter-silver-grey polish with multicolored glass flecks, namely gold, pink, green, and blue.


it is rather sheer and needs three coats, again as its taupe brother :D, but the opacity and color build up nicely.


many girls said that it has a weird smell, but i didn't notice it with my bottle.

natural light:

catrice rusty but sexy 560

catrice rusty but sexy 560 je moj tip narandžastog laka sa šimerom.

catrice rusty but sexy 560 is my type of orange shimmery polish!

rusty but sexy je, kao što mu ime kaže, rđkasti narandžasti lak metalik završnice (negde sam pročitala da bi tačniji opis boje bio "zagorela narandžasta"). ima zlatkasti svetlucavi šimer kada je direktno ispod izvora svetlosti.

spada u onu grupu "skoro jednoslojaca". dok se maže, ostaju blago vidljivi potezi četkice, ali ima formulu zbog koje se samoizjednačuje, tako da je sve kako treba posle par sekundi.

prirodna svetlost:

rusty but sexy is a rusty orange (i read somewhere that the more accurate description would be "burnt orange") metallic polish. it has golden sparkles when it's under direct light.

it is in the group of those "almost one-coaters" and it tends to leave visible brushstrokes while applying it, but the formula is self-leveling so it's all nice and even after a few seconds.

natural light:

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.

40. theme friday: ruffian

za prethodni petak smo se igrale ruffian-a i polumeseca, što je bilo prilično zanimljivo. ja sam se nisam preterano proslavila po pitanju preciznosti sa grumpy break through, ali mi se sviđaju boje pa ću ponoviti nekom drugom prilikom.

sutra nas čekaju golden rose jolly jewels  lakovi i njima slični!

the last theme friday was really fun, since we played with ruffian and halfmoon , and i wasn't really successful with my grumpy break through, but i like the color combo and will try it again.


tomorrow is a day for golden rose jolly jewels and similar polishes!
