Matching Manicure Sunday - Snowflakes

Hi there!

These are my 'snowflakes nails' for this round of Matching Manicure Sunday. I'm not too happy with them, but I also must say that they look much better from a distance. I painted my nails with Pupa Sugar Candy 002, gorgeous baby blue with sugar effect, but I would rather call it snowy day effect . I got it from my dearest Tanja, whom supplies me with Kiko nail polishes, but sometimes throw in something else . 

Evo mojih 'pahuljičastih' noktiju za ovaj krug Matching Manicure Sunday. Nisam baš presretna s njima, no isto tako moram reći da iz udaljenosti puno bolje izgledaju. Nalakirala sam nokte s Pupa Sugar Candy 002, prekrasnom baby plavom s šećernim efektom, no ja bih ovaj efekt radije krstila efektom snježnjog dana . Dobila sam ga od najdraže Tanje, koja me redovito opskrbljuje Kiko lakovima, no zna ubaciti i nešto drugo .

 Pupa 'sugar candy' 002, three coats, no topcoat, outside / tri sloja, bez nadlaka, vani

This is my first Pupa polish, and I must say I'm a bit disappointed. The bottle is cute, but small, only 5 ml. The brush is wider and polishing with it is easy. But, the polish is pretty sheer, so I needed three coats to cover my nails. The finish is not perfectly smooth, but you can expect that considering multicolored white glitter inside. As for drying time, that was disaster... Even half an hour later, my nails were still mushy on touch. Luckily, speed dry topcoat solved that problem, otherwise I would definitely go bananas .I know that Pupa polishes are pricey, so I expected perfect quality.

After polish was finally dry, I draw snowflakes and added another coat of topcoat. Since it's such a cute color, and matches my skin tone perfectly, I wear it for a few days, and I must say that the durability was pretty good. I received a lot of compliment for this manicure, so I guess I could do worse  .

What's your verdict? Have you checked out what the other girls have done?

Ovo mi je prvi susret s Pupa lakovima i moram priznati da sam malo razočarana. Bočica je slatka, ali sićušna, tek 5 ml laka u njoj. Četkica je šira i lakiranje s njom je lako. No, sam lak je prilično proziran, pa su mi trebala tri sloja da prekrijem nokte. Finiš nije sasvim gladak, što je za očekivati, s obzirom na brdo bijelog glittera različitih veličina. Što se tiče sušenja, e to je bila prava katastrofa. Čak i nakon više od pola sata nokti su mi bili kašasti na dodir. Srećom, nije to ništa što brzosušeći nadlak ne može popraviti, no da nije njega bilo bi nereda  . Znam da su Pupa lakovi skupi, pa sam očekivala savršenu kvalitetu.

Kad je lak konačno bio suh, akrilnom bojicom nacrtala sam pahuljice i dodala još jedan sloj nadlaka. S obzirom da mi ovakvi tonovi savršeno pašu uz ten, manikuru sam šetala par dana, i moram reći da je izdržljivost laka bila u redu. Pobrala sam čak i nešto komplimenata, pa mi se čini da sam mogla i gore proći .

Kakva je Vaša presuda? Jeste li već provjerili što su druge cure napravile?

Thanks for stopping by, Žana
