Dots & spots


Inspirirana Uskrsom, proljećem, jajima, i jednom prekrasnom haljinom koju sam vidjela ( u ovim bojama) došla sam na ideju uraditi ovo. Iako može izgledati kao da nosim neku bež boju za podlogu, nije točno. To je Sheer pale pink iz Avona, nježna mliječna ružičasta (nisam sigurna ima li je još za kupiti. U Hrvatskoj nema već godinama). Imala sam problem, jer je vrlo svijetla morala sam nanositi dva sloja, a ni tada nije baš najbolje izgledala, ali točkice idu preko pa se neće ni vidjeti.Također, imam ovu bočicu već godinama pa je tu i drugi problem- sušenje. Traje satima xD.
Ostale boje koje sam koristila:
- zelena: Peppermint leaf iz Avona*
- ljubičasta: Luxe laveder iz Avona

- svijetlo plava: Vintage blue iz Avona
- bijela: 306 od S-he Stylezone
Zanimljivo je da su se ove točkice osušile brže od podloge.
Htjela sam malo pastelnije boje pa sam malo te zelene pomiješala sa ovom bijelom prije nego sam koristila točkalicu (sa dvije različito velike strane). Također, ovo sam radila jako kasno, u 3 ujutro pa sam neka mjesta propustila, a onda naknadno dodala točkicu, pa bih zaboravila staviti bijelu ili završnu na nju, kao ova zelena na vrhu malog prsta, ali nema veze =)

Inspired by Easter, spring, eggs and one beautiful dress I saw ( in those colors), I came up to an idea to make this. Even it can look like I'm wearing some beige nail polish as a base, it is not true. That is Sheer pale pink by Avon, soft milky pink ( I'm not sure if it is still available to buy. In Croatia haven't been for years.) I had a problem, because it is very light I had had put two coats, but even then it hadn't look so good, but dots were over so it doesn't matter. And also I have this bottle for years so we have another problem- drying. It lasts for hours xD
Other colors I used:
- green: Peppermint leaf by Avon*
- lilac: Luxe lavender by Avon
- light blue: Vintage blue by Avon
- white: 306 by S-he Stylezone
Interesting is that those spots had been dry faster than my base coat.
*I wanted some pastel colors so i mixed a bit of that green with this white, before I used nail doter (with two different size sides). Also, I was doing it late at night, It was 3 in the morning so I missed some places and then added spot there but I forgot to put white or a finish on it. Like on my little finger, that green on top, but never mind. =)

CHOOSE ME! by Essence manicure

Golden Rose Nail art
Želim prikazati jednu od svojih najdražih manikura. Urađena je pomoću zeleno-plave baze, laka nijanse CHOOSE ME od Essence-a i Golden Rose Nail art lakova, crnog (106) i bijelog (101). Stavila sam sliku Golde Rose sa interneta samo da prikažem  broj nijansi boja i kako oni izgledaju. Prilično je jednostavno napraviti ovu manikuru, a izgleda jako efektno. Jedino što treba je dobar alat i mirna ruka. Čak se i brzo suši, a bazni lak je dobar čak i u jednom sloju samo.Došla sam na ovu ideju vidjevši sliku na internetu. također, stavljam ovu malu sliku da se vidi kako ove dvije boje izgledaju efektno na ovom zeleno-plavom sedefastom laku. Ovo je vrlo neobičan lak i sviđa mi se jer me podsjeća na holo lakove. A ovo dolje je moj rad. =)

I want to present one of my favourite manicures. It is made of green/blue base, it is nail polish CHOOSE ME! by Essence and Golden Rose Nail art polishes, black (106) and white (101). I put a photo of Golden Rose from internet just to show numbers of colours and how they look. It is pretty much simple to make it and it looks very effectime. Only thing needed is good material and patience. Even all is dry quick, and base is good even with only one coat. I came up to this idea when I saw a photo on internet. Also I put this small photo just to show how do those two colours look on this beautiful shimmering blue/green. This is very unusual nail polish and I like it because it reminds me on holo nail polishes. And down here is my work. =)

Viva la pink!! 2

Essence 04 mr. big, stamp, pink glitter
Evo je, manikura od danas, imam pečat iz Cniha Shopa ( u obliku čaše šampanjca), preko Essence 04 mr.big, o kojem sam pisala jučer, i imam roze šljokice preko pa izgleda kao da su konfeti preko čaše. :D Na ovoj slici se čini kao da su neki od njih ljubičasti ali nisu. Možda se čini da je previše šljokica, ali baš me briga, htjela sam nešto efektno. Možda će najveći problem biti to skinuti sa nokta. =)
Here it is, my manicure for today, I am wearing stamp from China shop ( Champange glass), over Essence 04 mr.big, and i have some pink glitter over it, so it looks like confetti over glass :D On this photo it seems like there are some of them purple but they are not. Maybe it is a bit too much glitter but i don't care, because the base is also pink and i wanted something to be effective. Maybe the biggest problem will be how to take it off the nail.=)

Viva la pink!!

Essence ( nail art twins colour base 04 mr. big )
Moram priznati da nisam obožavatelj rozih i fuksija boja ali ovu sam kupila na rasprodaji od -40% zbog, najprije, dobre cijene, a drugi razlog je bio što nemam ružičastu boju u svojoj kozmetičkoj torbici sa lakovima. Zapravo, imam, ali nisam zadovoljna njome. To su neki lakovi od Golden Rose ( 324 & 328), oba su kao fluorescentna, ali mi ne prekrivaju nokat dovoljno. A ako išta mrzim onda su to lakovi koji loše prekrivaju nokat. Sa ovim Essence-ovim ( nail art twins colour base 04 mr. big) sam iznenađena i potpuno zadovoljna. Čak je samo 1 sloj bio dovoljan, kao što se vidi na slici. Sutra ću staviti neke šljokice ili crteže tip painterom, ne mogu još odlučiti, i stavit ću sliku ovdje. =)
I must admitt I'm not a fan of pink and fuchsia colours but I bought this one on -40% sale because, first of all because of such a good prize and the other reason is that I haven't had pink in my cosmetic nail polish bag yet. Actually, I have, but I am not satisfied with it. They are some by Golden Rose ( 324 & 328), both are somehow fluorescent, but they don't cover my nail enough. And if I hate something the most it is non-covering nail polishes. With this Essence ( nail art twins colour base 04 mr. big) I am surprised and completely satisfied. Even 1 coat was enough, as you can see on photo. Tomorrow I'll put some glitters or tip painters, I can't decide yet, and put a photo here. =)

proljeće.../ spring...

Nekako imam previše kreativnosti, a malo vremena, ali proljeće me inspirira (osobito ovo toplo vrijeme) da stavim malo svježe plave na nokte... Ovo je VINTAGE BLUE od Avona i preko njega pruge od Golden Rose Nail Art (bijeli - 101 i plavi šljokičasti - 110).
Jučer je padala kiša pa mi je trebalo nešto da me razveseli. Napravila sam ovo preko noći jer nisam mogla spavati.Ova plava me podsjeća na baby plavu. Imam potrebu da obznanim svoje osjećaje pa to činim putem laka za nokte i putem ovog posta. =)
Blue Vintage (Avon) & Golden Rose Nail Art 101 , 110



Somehow I have too much creativity and lack of time, but spring inspires ( specially this warm weather) me and made me put some fresh blue on my nails... It is VINTAGE BLUE by Avon and over it some stripes by Golden Rose Nail Art (white - 101 and blue shimmer - 110)
Yesterday was raining so I needed something to cheer me up. I made it over night because I couldn't sleep. This blue reminds me of baby blue colour. I have need to publish my feelings so I'm doing it over my nail polis and over this post. =)
