The one with tons of pictures

Hi my friends!

Well my girls, this is the post for real polish addicts . Just wait and see!
I must start with this gorgeousness, it's Catrice 'Steel My Soul' and it really took my soul .
Drage moje, evo i posta za prave lakoholičarke . Samo ostanite sa mnom pa ćete vidjeti!
Moram početi s ovom krasotom, Catrice 'Steel My Soul', koji mi je stvarno ukrao dušu .

On pics two coats, no topcoat. This one have a satin finish, but with lots of golden, green and red shimmer that really gives it deep and 'that special' look. It's almost one coater, and this taupe color is extra elegant. Catrice has really done awesome job with this one, love it!

How about that ring? It's from Essence's nail art 'create your own ring' set. 

Na gornjim fotkama su dva sloja, bez nadlaka. Ovaj ima satin finiš, ali brdo zlatnog, zelenog i crvenog shimmera daje mu dubinu i onaj 'poseban' izgled. Gotovo da je dovoljan jedan sloj, ako stavljate išta deblji nanos od mene (a u mene su zbilja tanki) onda će vam taj jedan biti dovoljan, a ova puderasta boja je zbilja elagantna. Catrice je s ovim lakom napravio predobar posao, obožavam ga!

Sigurno ste primjetile i prsten!? I to je dio noviteta u Essence asortimanu, set 'kreirajte vlastiti... prsten'.

They come in three size. And if you like match your jewelry with nail polish, then this is 'must-have' for you.

Just polish the inner side of ring, let it dry and you have perfect match with your nails. When you're tired of this model, remove the color with acetone and make a new one! You can even play with some nail art on it. 

But, let's get back to nail polishes . Have you tried any of  'colour and change' polishes by Essence?

Dolaze u tri veličine. Ukoliko volite slagati nakit prema laku za nokte, ovo bi vam trebao biti obavezan dio kolekcije nakita. Samo nalakirajte unutrašnji dio prstena, pustite ga da se dobro posuši i imate savršeni prsten za novi lak. Kad vam taj dosadi, odstranite lak s acetonom i napravite novi! Možete se čak poigrati i s nail art tehnikama. 

Nego, idemo mi natrag na lakiće . Jeste probale koju od nijansi 'colour and change' Essence lakova?

This simple kind of nail art consist of two steps. Step 1 is 'an ordinary' nail polish, in this case 'wonderlicious green'. 

Ova vrlo jednostavna nail art tehnika sastoji se od dva koraka. Prvi bi bio 'obićan' lak za nokte, kod mene 'wonderlicious green'. 

I don't see any green here, but it's nice cold blue and grayish shade, satin finish, on pics two coats. You may wear it like this, or go to Step 2, take the nail art bottle (hiding in a cardboard) and add some magic over this polish. 

Ne vidim ja tu nikakvu zelenu, već sivkastoplavu hladnu boju, satin finiša, na fotkama u dva sloja, bez nadlaka. Možete ga nositi i samog, naravno, ili prijeći na drugi korak, poslužiti se drugim lakom (koji se krije u kartonu) za malo magije. 

When you applied this one, pretty soon you'll see your nail polish changes. Make any design you want, have fun, I even made a ring. It's much more visible if you use a thicker coat. After this you mustn't  put a topcoat, it said so on the packaging too. But I wanted to see what will happened if I do so. 

Kad nanesete sloj ovog nadlaka, za tren ćete vidjeti kako se vaš lak mijenja. Napravite bilo kakav uzorak, zabavite se, ja sam čak i prsten napravila. Efekt će biti uočljiviji ako koristite deblji sloj. Nakon ovog ne smijete koristiti nadlak, i na pakiranju piše tako. Ali mene je zanimalo što bi se desilo kad bih ga ipak stavila.

The magic effect fades, it's hardly visible anymore. So, if you want to see it, skip the topcoat. Here I used 'glow in the dark' topper, I'm only sorry I don't have a black light in the house to show you how it glows, but it can be used as an ordinary topcoat, it dries normally, not so fast as 'better than gel nails' top coat (the best you can buy in Croatian's drugstores) but it's pretty glossy. 

Učinak magije blijedi, jedva da je vidljiv. Dakle, ako ga hoćete vidjeti, preskočite nadlak. Tu sam koristila 'glow in the dark' nadlak, žao mi je što doma nemam crna svjetla da vam pokažem kako svijetli, ali može se koristiti i kao običan nadlak, suši se normalno, ne tako brzo kao 'better than gel nails' nadlak (najbolji kojeg možete nabaviti u hrvatskim drogerijama) ali je prilično sjajan. 

This is 'naughty and pink!', two coats, no topcoat. It's semi-jelly, I would say, it's not so transparent and it shines like crazy. If you like pink shades, hot pink in particularly, then this one must find a way to your collection. 

Na gornjim fotkama je 'naughty and pink!' u dva sloja, bez nadlaka. Polu jelly je, čini mi se, nije tako proziran ali se sjaji kao lud. Ukoliko vam se sviđaju roze nijanse, hot pink osobito, onda ovaj lak mora biti dio vaše kolekcije. 

This blue beauty is 'the boy next door', two coats, no topcoat. It also have that jelly looks, but after two coats my nails lines are not visible. It shines just great, lovely color, drying time pretty decent.  

Ovaj plavi ljepotan je 'the boy next door', u dva sloja, bez nadlaka. Takođe ima taj jelly izgled, ali nakon dva sloja linija nokta nije vidljiva. Ima fantastičan sjaj, krasna boja, vrijeme sušenja sasvim pristojno.

Let me tell you a few words about new bottles. More polishes inside, that's definitely a big plus in my book,  although I'm not quite sure what to think about the bottle design. Love this branding on the cap. New brush seems wide but it's rounded and it really awesome for polishing, especially if you're not fan of cleaning up your cuticles after polishing, like me. And when you close the polish, you'll know it closed properly when you hear that 'click' sound, love this new function. Now, there's just no way of leaving the bottles half-closed.  

Dozvolite i par riječi o novim bočicama. Unutra je više laka, što je za mene definitivno veeeeliki plus, iako baš i nisam sigurna što da mislim o novom dizajnu bočica. Sviđa mi se ovo brendiranje na čepu. Nova četkica se čini široka ali je zaobljena što je super za lakiranje, naročito ako niste neki fan čišćenja zanoktica nakon lakiranja, poput mene. A kad lak zatvarate, znat ćete da je dobro zatvoren kad čujete onaj 'klik' zvuk, ovo obožavam! Sad nema šanse da ostavite bočicu poluzatvorenu i nađete zgusnut lak.
