Catrice Holo In One

Hi there!

It's been a while since I bought the polish one day, and wear it on next. But when I woke up this morning and saw a sunny day, I just couldn't resist.

Iskreno, ni ne sjećam se kad sam zadnji dan kupila lak pa ga nalakirala već sutradan. No kad je jutros kroz prozor ušao sunčan dan, nisam mogla odoljeti.

Hi there!

If I published this post last month, this polish would end up in my last year's favorites... this way, it will probably earn its place in this year's favorites. 

Da je ovaj post objavljen prošli mjesec, lak bi definitivno završio među prošlogodišnjim favoritima... ovako, ne gine mu mjesto u ovogodišnjim.

Christmas Challenge 2014 - Christmas Sparkle

Hi there!

This post was supposed to be published yesterday, but as I said, I'm usually late .

Ovaj je post trebao biti objavljen još jučer, no kao što sam se već pohvalila, i ovaj put kasnim  .

Ulta3 Triple Threat Vs. Deborah Shine Tech 18

Hi there!

Black nail polish is my first love. Because my collection is so big, I don't have a chance to wear it as often as I'd like to. But, this post will be all about black .

Crni lak za nokte je moja prva ljubav. Zbog prevelike kolekcije (a i hrpe novih lakova koje jedva stignem isprobati) ne nosim ih baš onako često kako bih htjela. No bar će ovaj post biti isključivo crn  .

Hi there!

The weather is too gloomy for proper swatches of new polishes, so I decided to show you some oldies, but goodies . Photos are from July :facepalm:

Vrijeme je vani pretmurno (sad već i premračno) za poštene fotke novih lakića, pa sam odlučila pokazati neke stare, ali oooopako dobre . Fotke datiraju iz srpnja :facepalm: 

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.

Rebel Blue with Perfect Holographic

Hi there!

While I'm on needles and pins waiting for Mr. Nail Crazy to knocked on the door, let me show you some of polishes you've already seen in my manicures.

Dok sjedim kao na iglicama i čekam da Mr. Nail Crazy konačno pokuca na vrata, mogu ubiti vrijeme tako da Vam pokažem koji od lakića koji su već vidjeli svjetlo dana. Evo posljednjeg kojeg sam nosila, vidjele ste ga već u dvije manikure. 

L'OREAL 'rebel blue' is lovely medium blue color with shimmer. It comes in bottles of 5 ml, its brush is wide, it's well pigmented, it dries pretty fast... On pics you see two coats, no topcoat. It's really lovely, the only downside is that 5 ml bottle, but maybe this way I could finally spend the entire polish. 

And here's another one:

L'OREAL 'rebel blue' je krasna srednje plava boja sa shimmerom. Dolazi u bočici od 5 ml, četkica mu je široka i meni skoro u jednom potezu pokrije nokat što je super, pigmentacija zadovoljavajuća, vrijeme sušenja pristojno - dok sam odradila fotkanje, lak je bio potpuno suh. Na fotkama je u dva sloja, bez nadlaka. Krasan mi je, jedina mu je mana ta mala bočica, ali možda ovako uspijem i potrošiti koji lak . 

Evo još jednog malca:

This one is perfect Holographic 4, on pics in two coats, no topcoat. Another bottle of just 5 ml, which makes me sad. The brush is narrow, but works just fine, the polish has kinda 'slobbery' formula like all holo polishes, it looks absolutely perfect with two coats, and under the sun or artificial light, like here, you can see it in all its beauty. It's really the eye catcher! Perfect is Bulgarian brand, you can found it online at Beauty Cosmetic.biz. The products are cheaper than in Croatia, some of these stuff you can't find in our country, but the shipping is 10 €. Maybe common shopping with your neighbor is not such an bad idea.

Now I'm off, gotta polish my nails befere hubby arrives. 

Ovaj se odaziva na ime perfect Holographic 4, na fotkama u dva sloja, bez nadlaka. Bočica je opet od 5 ml, zašto o zašto, znam da ću plakati za njim kad dođe kraju . Četkica je uska, ali isto odradi svoj posao, lak je onako 'slinav' poput većine holića i morate biti pažljivi dok ga nanosite, s dva sloja super izgleda, a na suncu ili pod umjetnom rasvjetom, gdje su nastale ove fotke, vidite ga u svoj njegovoj krasoti. Zbilja je mamac za oči! Perfect je bugarski brand, možete ga nabaviti online na stranici Beauty Cosmetic.biz. Kozmetika je prilično jeftinija nego u nas, neke od tih stvari niti ne možete kupiti u Hrvatskoj, ali shipping je 10 €, stoga ne bi bilo loše podijeliti narudžbu sa susjedom . 

A sad odoh nalakirati nokte, moram dočekati dragog u punoj bojnoj spremi .

Thanks for stopping by, Žana 

Christmas Great Challenge - Snowman

Hi there!

Finally, here's my entrance to this week's round of our Christmas Great Challenge.

Konačno, evo i mog ulaza u ovotjedni krug Velikog Božićnog Izazova.

As background I used perfect Holographic 4, which you'll see in all its shine in some other post. Snowman is painted with white acrylic paint, the details with different polishes. I tried to sponge some Golden Rose Holiday 70 on base of my nails, but since that polish is poorly pigmented that is hardly visible, only thing that I achieved is some texture. I had bigger plans for this manicure, but pain in my back won't let me sit more than 20 minutes, so I have to be satisfied with this. 

What do you think of my mr. Snowman, is he cute enough to keep you company on some meadow?  

Please, check out what the other Snowmans look alike.

Za pozadinu sam upotrijebila perfect Holographic 4, kojeg ćete u punom sjaju ipak vidjeti neki drugi put. Snjegović je nacrtan bijelom akrilnom bojom, a detalji lakovima za nokte. Pokušala sam spužvom nanijeti Golden Rose Holiday 70 na bazu noktiju, ali kako je lak užasno slabo pigmentiran to je jedva vidljivo, nokti su tek dobili na teksturi. Imala sam veće planove za ovu manikuru, ali bol u leđima mi ne da sjediti dulje od 20 minuta, pa sam se morala zadovoljiti i s ovim. 
Što mislite o mom g-dinu Snjegoviću, je li dovoljno sladak da Vam pravi društvo na nekoj livadi?
Molim Vas, provjerite i kako ostatak Snjegovića izgleda.

Swatcharama

Hi there!

No new manicure today, I'm still wearing my giraffe, they're to cute to let them go . So, I'll show you some of the polishes I wear but never show them here properly. 

Danas nema nove manikure, još uvijek nosim svoje žirafice, preslatke su mi da ih skinem . Zato ću Vam pokazati neke od lakova koje sam već nosila ali ih nikad nisam pokazala kako treba.

Catherine Arley #667, three coats, no topcoat. The holo effect is hard to capture, but it's there, easier to see on the sun or under artificial light. Nothing special to report about this polish, any holo polish is always welcomed in my stash.

Catherine Arley #667, tri sloja bez nadlaka. Holo efekt je malo teže uhvatiti, ali je tamo, i naravno, uočljiviji na suncu ili pod lampom. Ništa posebnog ne mogu reći o ovom laku, ali svaki je holić dobrodošao u mojoj kolekciji. 

Gabrini Multivitamin Summer Edition M103. Again, three coats, no topcoat. It smells bit stronger and it dries a bit slower, but if you like this color, you have yourself great bargain with this chicken yellow, cause these polishes are pretty cheep. 

Gabrini Multivitamin Summer Edition M103. Još jednom, tri sloja, bez nadlaka. Ima malo teži miris od većine lakova i suši se malo sporije, ali ako Vam se sviđa boja, dobro ćete proći s ovom pileće-žutom, jer su ovi lakovi prilično jeftini. 

It's good custom to save the best for last. This is deBBy colorPLAY 186 . In the bottle it looks like a deep blue colored polish, but when you applied on your nails you see that it's black with tons of blue shimmer. Surely one of the prettiest black with the twist polishes that I have. This one is from the bunch that Tanja send me. Two coats, no topcoat on upper pics. No deBBy polishes in Croatia .

Which one is your favorite?

Dobar je običaj da se za kraj čuvaju najbolje stvari. Ovo je deBBy colorPLAY 186  . U bočici izgleda kao još jedan plavac, ali kad ga lakirate na nokte vidite da je zapravo riječ o crnom laku s tonom plavog shimmera. Zasigurno je jedan od najljepših crnjaka u mojoj kolekciji. Izvukla sam ga iz gomile koju mi je Tanja poslala. Na fotkama su dva sloja, bez nadlaka. U Hrvatskoj nema deBBy lakova za kupiti .

Je li Vam koji zapeo za oko?

Thanks for stopping by, Žana 

p.s. look where I catch Gricko the other night! Of course, he dumped everything he didn't need 

p.s. vidite gdje sam Gricka uhvatila neku večer! Naravno, izbacio je sve što mu je smetalo 

Waterfalls

Hi there!

I know, I know, I absolutely neglected you lately... but I had so many other things to do. Let me show you my latest decent manicure, after which I lost two of my nails and now they're super short .

Ma znam, sasvim sam vas zanemarila... ali imala sam previše posla i nisam stigla. Nego, da Vam pokažem svoju posljednju pristojnu manikuru, nakon koje sam izgubila dva nokta i sad su svi super kratki .

I started with two coats of S-he 115, pure white polish. It doesn't have the greatest drying time, so I applied a coat of speed dry topcoat, also on pics. This reminded me of my elementary school days, when we painted our nails with corrector, because in those days, such a white polish was impossible to find. Now, I don't like so much whiteness on my nails, so I added some colors.

Počela sam s dva sloja S-he 115, čistog bijelog laka. Nema baš neku bajnu brzinu sušenja, pa je na fotki s brzosušećim nadlakom. Ovo me sjetilo osnovnoškolskih dana, kad smo nokte mazale korektorom, jer je onda bilo nemoguće pronaći ovako bijel lak. Previše mi je to blještalo na noktima pa sam dodala malo boje.

This is a simple manicure, all you need is some tip painter brush and colors of your choice to draw some lines and you'll create a waterfall effect. As you can guess, this manicure is called 'waterfall' . I used Color line #56 and Catherine Arley #667 for waterfalls.

Me like, how about you?

Ovo je sasvim jednostavna manikura za koju vam treba tek tanki kistić i boja po vlastitom izboru kojom ćete povući ravne linije i stvoriti efekt vodopada. Kao što možete pretpostaviti, ova manikura je i nazvana 'vodopad' odnosno 'slap' . Upotrijebila sam Color line #56 i Catherine Arley #667 za slapove. 

Me like, a Vi?
