Hi there!

Catrice Dirty Berry

Hi there!

I decided to take one of my holo polishes on a walk, since the sunny weather is the right time to show this kind of polishes. 

Odlučih se izvesti jedan od holo lakića u šetnju, jer je sunčano vrijeme pravo vrijeme da pokažete ovakvu vrstu lakova.

Matching Manicure Sunday #2 - Autumn In My Street

Hi there!

Another Sunday, another Matching Manicure for Balkan bloggers . This week the theme is: 'autumn in my street'. 

Evo nam još jedne nedjelje i još jedne Matching Manicure za balkanske blogerice . Ovaj tjedan tema je: 'jesen u mom sokaku'.

I had something completely different in my mind... those sponging looked better, and my leafs were awesome . Instead, I stuck with this. 

I started with three coats of Catrice 'Innocent Toxin', then sponged with Color Club 'charity ball', Chanel 'shanghai red' and BK #42. At the end I draw these wanna be leafs with my CD marker , sealed everything with the best topcoat in the world - Essence 'better than gel nails' fast dry. Like I said, it looked better in my head. Autumn or not, I wanna wear my pastels, I'm not ready for gloomy colors! Or is it that I just don't feel comfortable with this combo!?

How about you?

U mojoj glavi je sve ovo izgledalo puno bolje... spužvanje je izgledalo bolje, a lišće bilo savršeno . Ujesto toga, zaglavila sam s ovim. 

Počela sam s tri sloja Catrice 'Innocent Toxin', onda spužvala s Color Club 'charity ball', Chanel 'shanghai red' i BK #42. Na kraju sam nacrtala kao lišće, i to s CD markerom , i zaštitila sve s najboljim nadlakom na svijetu - Essence 'better than gel nails' fast dry. Kao što rekoh, u glavi mi je ovo izgledalo bolje. Jesen ili ne, baš me briga, meni se još uvijek nose pastelne bojice, nisam spremna za sumornije nijanse! Ili mi jednostavno ova kombinacija nije legla!?

A vama?

Thanks for stopping by, Žana    

Quel bleu turquoise

Hi there!

Here I am with new textured polish, but this time by Catrice instead of p2.
Evo me s novim hrapavcem, ali ovaj put Catrice a ne p2.

This is 'Quel bleu turquoise' from Catrice's collection 'L'Afrique, c'est chic'. Yesterday we had a gloomy day, so no sun on these pictures, otherwise you'd see that silver glitter in it. I'm wearing two coats, no topcoat. Nice color, wide brush, nice drying time, application with no problems... nothing bad to say about this polish. 

I needed to compare it with China Glaze 'of coarse!'.

Ovo je 'Quel bleu turquoise' iz Catrice kolekcije - 'L'Afrique, c'est chic'. Jučer smo imali tmuran dan pa nema fotki sa sunca, inaće biste vidjele i srebrni glitter u laku. Imam dva sloja, bez nadlaka. Zgodna boja, široka četkica, pristojno vrijeme sušenja, nanošenje bez problema... nemam ništa loše za reći o ovom laku, premda mi je na prvu izgledao dosta rijedak.

Trebala sam ga usporediti s China Glaze 'of coarse!'.

As you can see - both colors are very similar but Catrice polish has tiny silver glitter in it. China Glaze polish looks absolutely mat and it's more on the rough side. 'Of coarse!' is on my middle finger, if you haven't noticed.

Seeing these silver glitter in Catrice polish another came to my mind.

Kao što možete vidjeti - boje su vrlo slične ali Catrice ima u sebi sićušni srebrni glitter. China Glaze izgleda sasvim mat i dosta je grublje teksture. 'Of coarse!' imam na srednjem prstu, ali vjerujem da ste to već primjetili.

Vidjevši ovaj srebrni glitter u laku, još mi je jedan pao na pamet.

Color Club 'otherworldly' from their 'glitter envy' collection is a neon blue with holographic glitter. It's not textured polish but it seemed to me that these two polishes could look alike... not too much, 'otherworldly' is a bit darker... once again, I'm really sorry for taking pictures on a cloudy day so you can't see the silver glitter in 'Quel bleu turquoise' or holo glitter in 'otherworldly' .

If I may say, China Glaze 'of coarse!' is my favorite here, it has the best formula and drying time, and I'm absolutely in love with its texture and color. 

Which one is your favorite?

Color Club 'otherworldly' iz 'glitter envy' kolekcije je neon plavac s holografskim glitterom. Nema teksture ali mi se činilo da bi ova dva laka mogla slično izgledati... baš i ne previše, 'otherworldly' je tek nešto tamniji s krupnijim glitterom... još jednom, stvarno mi je žao što sam se uopće gnjavila raditi fotke na oblačan dan pa se ne vidi ni srebni glitter u 'Quel bleu turquoise' ni holo u 'otherworldly-u' .

Da morate izabrati svog favorita, koji bi bio?

Thanks for stopping by, Žana 

Is revvvolution worth the risque!?

Hi my friends!

How do you handling the heat, do you enjoy it or despise it? I'm praying for November's rains . Now, that we clear on this subject we can go to a next one - nails, of course.

In my last manicure the holographic polish wasn't visible enough, so I decided to wear some of my holos again, two of them in same time.
Kako podnosite vrućinu, uživate ili je mrzite? Ja osobno se molim za početak studenog i kiše . Sad kad smo to raščistili, možemo na iduću temu - na nokte, naravno.
U posljednjoj manikuri holo ljepotan baš i nije bio nešto vidljiv pa sam odlučila iznijeti neke od svojih holića, i to dva istovremeno.

The polishes involved are: 'revvvolution' and 'worth the risque' by Color Club. It's a simple manicure, but I love the simplicity of it . And I believe, that polishes as gorgeous as these two, doesn't need any extra decoration.  

Do you agree?
I'll send this manicure to Une Ruxi a Paris: Gradient contest, if you haven't send yours you still have time till the end of the month. I'm not expecting to win, but I love the manicure and I want it to be seen.
Lakovi su 'revvvolution' i 'worth the risque' od Color Club-a. Manikura je sasvim jednostavna, ali ja i volim njenu jednostavnost . I vjerujem, da ovako krasnim lakićima i ne treba dodatna dekoracija.
Slažete se?
Manikuru ću poslati i kod Une Ruxi a Paris, na natječaj za najbolju gradijent manikuru, ako niste poslali svoju imate vremena do kraja mjeseca. Ne očekujem pobjedu, ali mi se manikura sviđa i rado bih da bude viđena. 

Till the next polishing... love, Žana

p.s. the blogosphere has some issues with some nasty bugs, so I removed my blogroll list, it's a temporary solution until these problems solves 
p.s blogosfera ima problema s nekim gadnim 'bajama', pa sam privremeno uklonila listu blogova dok se ti problemi ne rješe

The butterfly and a little monster

Hi my friends!

I really don't know what to say about this manicure... My inspiration was a Dolores's manicure, she did an awesome job with it and this is my attempt to recreate it. I just hope, one day this caterpillar will be reborn as a gorgeous butterfly. 

Baš i ne znam što da vam kažem o ovoj manikuri... Inspiraciju sam ukrala od Dolores, jako mi se svidjelo što je napravila pa sam to pokušala i ja. Nadam se samo, da će iz ove gusjenice jednog dana izići prekrasan leptir. 

The base color is Eveline's Holografic shine #417, which you can see here. The butterfly was stamped with Dashica's stamping plate SdP-11 and after it I colored it with holo polishes. If you need to know something else, just ask. 

Za bazu mi je poslužio Eveline Holografic shine br. 417, koji možete vidjeti ovdje. Leptir je došao uz pomoć Dashicine ploče SdP-11 a nakon toga sam ga i obojala. Ako vas još nešto zanima, slobodno pitajte.  

Till the next polishing... love, Žana 

p.s. I think I'll send this manicure for the BornPretty Store Blog's contest for this month, if you have any manicures on this themes: studs, flower, star, leopard or butterfly go there and participate - the more, the merrier ... and you can even win something!

p.s. mislim da ću ovu manikuru proslijediti na BornPretty Store Blog natjecanje za ovaj mjesec, ukoliko imate kakvu manikuru na temu zakovice, cvijeće, zvijezde, leopard ili leptir idite i sudjelujte - što nas je više, to je veselije ... a možda se baš vama zalomi koja nagrada! Ne zaboravite ni večerašnju tekmu... premda sam sigurna da su danas i vrapci na grani pjevali o njoj!

'ajmo Hrvatska!!! 

Purple with the subtle stamping... what a boring title :-p

Hi my friends!

How are you today? Is it peaceful in your corner of the world? Did anyone or anything gave you the reason to smile today? Hope yes   

Let's go on notd. I found some similar polishes in my stash, and even a dupe, hooray. Wanna see?

Kako ste mi danas? Je li mir ovladao vašim djelićem svijeta? Je li vam netko, ili barem nešto dalo razlog da se nasmiješite? Nadam se da da . 
'ajmo mi na današnje nokte. Našla sam neke slične lakiće u zalihi, čak i dupliće, jupi. Zanima vas?

Maybe I didn't catch it on the pictures, but Joy 353 and estetic 353 by Ingrid cosmetics are dupes, they even have the same number. I really don't know anything about Joy polishes, if someone knows, I would really appreciate  sharing the knowledge about it. This franken used to be Flormar supershine 38, glitter, I put some pigments in it and now I have this great polish. All polishes in two coats, no topcoat... surprisingly, 'electronica' has the worst formula from these polishes.

However, I needed something so spiced it up a little, so I added some stamping, I used Konad image plate m70 and Color Club 'worth the risque' polish. 
Možda i nisam uhvatila najbolje, ali Joy 353 i estetic 353 od Ingrid cosmetics su duplići, čak imaju i iste brojke. Nemam blage veze o Joy lakićima, ako netko zna nešto o njima, cijenila bih razmjenu znanja. Franken je nekad bio Flormar supershine 38, glitter, ubacila sam nešto pigmenta u njega i sad imam još jedan super lakić. Tu su svi u 2 sloja, bez nadlaka... za divno čudo, 'electronica' ima najgoru formulu od ovih lakova. 
Nego, trebalo je ovo malo začinti, pa sam dodala i stamping, za njega iskoristila Konad pločicu m70 i Color Club 'worth the risque' lakić. 

At the end, I was pretty happy with the look of my nails... almost. My nail are again super short, what else is new!? I tried to fix it with 'diamond hardener' from Look By Bipa... it didn't help . I've been using it for almost two months now... no progress here... going back to Eveline. 
Na kraju sam i bila zadovoljna manikurom... skoro. Nokti su opet kratki, hello, šta još ima novo!? Pokušala sam ih popraviti s 'diamond hardener' od Look By Bipa... nije pomoglo . Koristila sam ga skoro dva mjeseca... ništa od napretka... vraćam se na Eveline.

That's all folks, till we meet again... love, Žana
