My Birthday!

2010-08-19T04:02:00.000-07:00

Hello ladies!

It was my birthday yesterday :) I'm getting older but I can still be happy as a little child when I get some cosmetics goodies :))

I won't show you any birthday mani...because it was made for my birthday party which took place in saturday and it is terrible today :)). And my make up? i have no close up photo of it :)

I'll show you my birthday presents :) - my friends say that it is hard to pick a present for me, but they did a fabolous job :) I'll show you only the 'cosmetic' part of my presents

This is Aldo Vandini Vino Spa collection - it smells awesome! I love it!

and some gift voucher - i'll pick present for my self :)) yay!

I went to Austria yeterday - buying gifts for myself haha :) Of course the greatest part was shopping in The Body Shop! Look what I got!

Everything smells soooo good! I bought Moringa shower gel and body lotion, Shea shower cream, body lotion and body butter (Shea is my far favorite TBS smell) and new Rainforest shampoo and conditioner and a lip gloss.

Do you like The Body Shop? Which is your favorite TBS product?

And now a bonus photo - a lovely bamboo I got from my boyfriend

Thanks for looking!

OPI Who The Shrek Are You

2010-08-03T09:40:00.000-07:00

Hello ladies!

As I first saw OPI Forever After collection I wanted the Ogre green beauty - Who the Shrek are you. It is just perfect - the name and the color! I also liked Fiercly Fiona but the other two...not so much. That's why I never bought the 'mini' collection...until now.

I got both - Fiona and Shrek - from Tassa! Thank you!

Here's my mani - I just adore this nail polish! And the bottle? OMG I've never seen a cutest nail polish bottle in my life! I want more OPI minis :))

And a bonus photo - I was cleaning my bedroom...actually I was gathering all my nail polishes....since I realised that I can't find few of them...I wonder where they are...
anyway, this is my small collection and as you can see, my dog isn't very helpful :)

Rainbow make up photo spam!

2010-07-22T13:31:00.000-07:00

Hey ladies!

Well, this is my second post today - obviously I have a lot of free time today :) Yes I do, because this is my last free day - I have to go to work tomorrow.

So I present you the most colorful make up I have ever made!

I used a lot of colors (all mineral pigments) - Sweetscents, The She Space, BellaPierre, Meow, Aromaleigh.

and now - the make up photo spam! I have one lame camera, but today it worked fantastic :)

Click on photos for a larger view!

Thanks for looking!

Back to reality!

2010-07-22T01:51:00.000-07:00

Hello ladies!

How are you? it's hot hot hoooot!
Well, I'm back from my vacation...it was great! Me and my boyfriend were on 'Dugi otok' (in English that means 'Long Island' :)) in Croatia - Dalmatia.
It was beautiful! It was hot, beaches are beautiful, there's not many tourists here, the sea was clean and refreshing...it was unforgetable...

...look!

And I have only one mani from my vacation for you :) It is Color Club Koo-Koo Cachoo! A neon bright orange that looks awesome on tanned skin! This was also my pedicure color (and it still is - or to be more precisely, it is again).

And now - the newest mani (from yesterday) a neon bright green China Glaze Kiwi Cool-Ada. I'm not sure I like it on my hands...but I'm totally sure that neon orange on toenails and bright green on fingernails does NOT look good, it does NOT match :) I have to change something...

I used ChG Kiwi Cool-Ada, konad IP m60, Ciate Lemon sherbet and Essence SYF In the jungle

Thanks for looking

Going to the seaside (and Parokeets' giveaway)

2010-07-04T03:05:00.000-07:00

Hello ladies!

I'm terrible, I know...this is becoming a ghost blog...but unfortunately I don't have time to post sth. everyday...

Well, today I do have something for you! It is my new nail polish! It's Max Factor Max Effect mini nail polish in Dazzling Blue! It is such a nice summer color! It reminds me of sea and fishes and so on...

this will be perfect color for my vacation in Croatia - I'm going there on July 10th!! Can't wait!!

Look at this beauty - it is sth. between green, blue, purple...like a mAgiCal FiSh :)

It reminded me of something...

It is similar to Sweetscent pigment Dream I got a while ago from Parokeets

That's a cool color, right?

Parokeets are also having a huuuuugeee Giveaway!!
Look!

Click HERE!
I'm sure I don't have such luck to win this prize, but it's worth to try :)

Have a nice Sunday!

I'm Back! with Shrek-like Alessandro!

2010-05-27T10:34:00.000-07:00

Hello Ladies!

I'm too busy, too lazy, too exhausted to write blog..but I'm here again with a new manicure called 'Shrek-like Alessandro mani' :)

Well, Alessandro has new Limited Edition of mini nail polishes called...hmmm...Summer...maybe Summer days, I'm not sure :) It's not important really :)
I love almost all colors from this collection, there are bright red, true blue, orange, light blue...and two special colors! Green and yellow!

I'm sure you all know Opi's Shrek Forever After Collection? I long for Who the Shrek Are You? nail polish bit since I can't get it, I found a substitute :)

Look at this ugly (ogre) color! Isn't it special? Isn't it cool?

This photo is Scrangie's property

The minute I saw 2 new Alessandro nail polishes I knew I want them because they remind me of Shrek, the greatest ogre of them all :)

Green Green Baby - hmmm, I would described it as ugly or dirty green with orange and bronze shimmer

Golden Goddess - greenish yellow with orange and bronze shimmer

I was dying to try them both and since they both have the same shimmer they are a good combination - I made an ogre mani - it is not a dupe to Opi Who the Shrek are You?, it is a good substitution :)

What do you think? Isn't this the cutest ugly green you've ever seen? :))

Saturday afternoon :)

2010-05-01T09:43:00.000-07:00

Hello ladies!

It's saturday, it's 1st May it is a non-working day. Grrrreat! I love these lazy days :) I was on a long walk with my dog and my friend and we decided to play with Konad a bit :)

It was fun! My friend had troubles choosing a nail polish and a Konad image plate, so we tried some combination on her nails. We found so many good combos! Look!

Base: Sinful Colors Morph del Rio
Image polish: Avon Mirror shine Gold foil
Plate: m73

I love the next one sooo much!
Base: Catrice From Dusk to Dawn
Image polish: Avon Mirror shine Copper Sheen
Plate: m64

Base: China Glaze For Audrey
Image polish: Essence nail art twins Bonnie
Plate: m73

Well in the end she decided that she wants a forth combo :) And this was her final manicure! Cute, right?
Base: Sinful Colors Morph del Rio
Image polish: Avon Mirror shine Gold foil
Plate: m64

And now my nails...I made the most gross manicure ever :)) I tried Avon Sunshine today, because I wanted something that smells like summer :) Well...it didn't! It was just too....too yellow for me. Bljak! So my friend suggested I should lay a Konad over it. And I did. With Essence All Access and Konad image plate m73. Look at this terrible result!

So I removed this shit immediately! And I made a manicure with Audrey and Bonnie :) I totally love this one! Don't you?

I hope you had as great holyday as I did :)

Catrice - Sold Out For Ever

2010-04-25T14:01:00.000-07:00

Hello ladies!

Today was a nice day! I visited my friend and her 7 months old baby. She is soooo cute! I just love her! Such a sunshine! She really made my day :)

My manicure today is as cheerful as I am :) It is Catrice #240 Sold Out For Ever. I really don't have anything like this in my collection. I never was a green lover, but lately I just love it. It feels good, especially it feels very springly :) First I was worried how this nail polish will look on me (you know I'm a coral-orange type of person) but I'm surprised how well it suits me! I would described it as a soft version of minty green.
It is supposed to be a dupe of Chanel's Jade, but according to photos of Jade I've seen I think it's not really a dupe. Jade has a lot more shimmer than Catrice. Catrice almost looks like a cream nail polish (it has a very very subtle shimmer).

So what do you think? Does it look good on me? Or do corals suits me better?

Thanks for looking :)

Catrice!!!

2010-04-23T02:26:00.000-07:00

Oujeeeee, I'm a lucky girl, I'm a lucky girl :)))

Thanks to Mamy from Parokeets I got all Catrice nail polishes I wanted so badly! There were 6 colors on my wish list and Mamy bought all of them for me and 1 extra - MAN, GO Tango! This one was her gift for me :) orange of course! She said that she was absolutely positive I will like it and you know what? She was right! It is a bright creme orange and you know I love everything that is orange or coral :)

You should check Mamy's entry on Parokeets blog about Catrice nail polishes! Crazy swatches! CLICK

Look at these beauties!

Names of shades from Left to Right:
- #230 Clay-ton, My Hero
- #200 From Dusk to Dawn
- #280 London's Weather Forecast
- #250 I Sea You!
- #240 Sold Out For Ever
- #020 MAN, GO Tango!
- #170 I Scream Peach!

I love them all!! It was a hard decision which one will go on my nails first...I was thinking about Sold Out For Ever all day long...but I chaged my mind. I picked Clay-ton, My Hero :) It is a gorgeous brownish grey with golden shimmer! Awww, perfect!

There are 3 coats on the photo, but 2 would be also enough

Sinful Colors Lioba&Morph del rio

2010-04-21T13:01:00.000-07:00

Hey ladies!

I have absolutely no time for my blog! That's terrible!
Well I did have a few spare minutes this week so I took photos of two gorgeous Sinful Colors nail polishes!

I'm too tired to write, so let's go to the pictures...

#165 Morph del rio - I can't really describe this color (I'm not good at describing colors anyway)...it has gold shimmer in it and this is what it makes Morph del rio so special

#206 Lioba - Fantastic orange with some kind of pinkish or fuchsia color shimmer. This is also my NOTD and I'm totally enchanted by this beauty

What do you think? Do you like the colors?

Essence fuchsia color comparison

2010-04-05T01:54:00.000-07:00

Hello ladies!

One of my favorite Essence nail polishes is deffinetely Very Berry from Jelly Baby trend edition! It is a perfect jelly fuchsia color!

Few days ago I bought Mr. Big from Nail art twins collection and I knew at the store already that it is similar to Very Berry but I bouht it anyway - I'll be using this color a lot in the summer.

So I made a comparison...

They are almost dupes - Very berry is more jelly and mr. big is creme and I think very berry is just a bit lighter than mr. big. Essence has another Very berry nail polish from Show your feet collection - I don't have it but I assume it is a total dupe to mr. big.

My winner? deffinetely jelly Very berry! Why? I have no idea - it is just special!

Happy Birthday Pluto!

2010-04-04T14:02:00.000-07:00

You know what?

My beloved dog has a Birthday today! He is 1 year old!
I just can't believe it has been 10 months since I got him! I can't imagine my life without him anymore! He is the best dog in the whole wide world! He is such a doll, he wouldn't hurt a fly!

When everything goes wrong, when I think I'm all alone in this world I just hug him and I feel better. I do! He's my shrink, I tell him everything and he listens. Always.

I love you my precious dog!

This is him - 2 months old. He was so cute, like a little toy!

and this is today - 1 year old dog - still the cutest dog but he also became the smartest and the greatest dog!

Happy Ester and EOTD :)

2010-04-04T04:54:00.000-07:00

Hello Ladies!

Happy Easter to all of you! I hope you are enjoying eggs and ham and other easter goodies :)

Look, these are my colorful Easter eggs. Cute, right?

And now after a long long time I'm finally posting my EOTD - it is made with The She Space pigments! Thanks to darksome I have a bunch of samples (have no idea how many) and now 6 full size pigments! Darksomes secret blog is her blog and you have to check it out - she makes the most gorgeous make ups!

These are the full size beauties

Very generously filled!

I used Divine Spark (gorgeous chocolate brown with gold shimmer), Fashioned in Finland (light green) and Little Sue Sunshine (sunny yellow) for today's make up

Thanks for looking!

Essence Stampy designs and NOTD

2010-03-22T03:39:00.000-07:00

Hello ladies!

How are you?
I have a day off and I feel great! Finally I have some time for my blog :)

Today I'd like to show you 2 new Essence Stampy designs plates and my NOTD made with one of them

This is Essence Meet you in Budapest nail polish from Secrets of the Past Trend Edition! I got this nail polish from Parokeets as a third place reward on Halloween Special
I'm sooo happy I have this nail polish! It is one of the most beautiful and special nail polishes from Essence and most wanted, I'm sure!

Look at this beauty

And now sth. new from Essence - new stampy designs plates! This is the only fake Konad that can be bought in Slovenian drugstores!

This is what I made with it (I used China Glaze For Audrey)

I have Taer Icelandic Nourishing hand&Nail cream in my hand - I looove this cream! It smels so good and the package is so gorgeous!

And now a bonus photo - while I was painting my nails my dog was sleeping in my room (well, he still is) Look at this - this is how my dog sleeps :))

Golden green Ruffian manicure

2010-03-10T07:42:00.000-08:00

Hello ladies!

I have such an imagination! I feel so creative! I have great ideas! NOT!
I feel like a parrot - not so colorful but so repetative :)

But I'll show you this anyway! I think it is a nice manicure - I feel great with it! It is a ruffian manicure - you can see a great tutorial by Nihrida here and a ruffian manicure by Maestra on Parokeets. Cool, right?

I had no ideas yesterday what to put on my nails - Maestra had a great idea when she said I should try green which my nails haven't seen for a long time. OK, green it is! But thats not enough...and I wasn't in the mood for Konad...so I decided to try ruffian manicure even though I thought it won't look good on my short nails. But I was wrong - I think it looks great - so chic, so sexy, so classy. What do you think?

I used:
- Avon Mirror Shine Gold foil
- Essence All Access (I got this gorgeous nail polish as a gift from a great girl with a nickname muffin - check out her blog Mancina se štima - it's great! thanks muffin!)

Chic ruffian manicure and chic Ciate bottle :)

Sooo, what do you think? I think it's a nice combo and that ruffian manicure looks the best with a gold color.

History repeating and 101st blog entry :)

2010-03-04T12:23:00.000-08:00

Hello ladies!

Remember august 2009? It was a very special month..when Nati decided to start a blog...:))

Why to remember? Because of an interesting coincidence :)

This is my 101st blog entry and I would like to show you a konadicure made with ELF Coral - the very same nail polish that I was wearing when I was writing my very first blog entry in august last year KOTD

I'm really happy to have so many followers and I really hope you like my blog ;)

Here's my mani I'd like to show you...

first, a beautiful ELF Fire Coral

and a touch of konad IP m64 and ELF Coral

Thanks for looking :)

Surprise from Lyra and a manicure Cute as Hell

2010-03-01T01:47:00.000-08:00

Hello Ladies!

How are you today?
I'm not so great even though the sun is shining...so I decided to made a manicure that will cheer me up! But let me tell you a little story about Ms. Santa first ;)

I'm sure you've already heard about Essence Cute as Hell Trend Edition! 4 beautiful colors just perfect for the spring!

source

The pink and the purple nail polish are not so impressing to me...I don't like pastel pinks and I hate everything similar to lavender. But the yellow and the orange ones...well, that was a love at first sight! But there was a big problem - how to get these beauties? I do not have any luck at hunting Essence Trend Editions...

...but I am a lucky girl anyway! Lyra was such a sweetheart that she said she'll send me the orange nail polish! I was so lucky!

So..I got her mail! I was expecting a small envelope but look what I got!

There was a big envelope full of goodies :) I was like a child who is opening a Christmas present! There was not only an orange Cute as hell beauty but also:

- 5 Sinful Colors nail polishes (Loza, Lioba, Celia, Gisa and Silly Alix)

- Bourjois Effet 3D lip gloss in Framboise magnific!

- NYX Black Label Lipstick in Peachy and

- NYX Diamond Sparkle Lipstick in Sparkling apricot

and a chocolate ;)

Lyra, thank you sooo much! If you don't know Lyra's blog already, you have to check it out - Nail Junkie

Ok, so I got the orange Cute as Hell beauty! What about the yellow one? I got it too! I was yawning to a friend about how much I want this nail polish and the next day she found it somwhere! How cool is that?!

Soooo, I have both beauties now!

- orange BAD GIRL and

- yellow NAUGHTY BUT NICE

I used both of them to make my super springy manicure! Do you remember green Ombre manicure from All Lacquered Up and a blue Ombre manicure from Nihrida

I was so impressed by this idea and I wanted to try it out but I never found apropriate colors...until today! I think that Essence Cute As Hell nail polishes are just perfect for this kind of manicure!

It's a Cute as Hell Ombre manicure!

What do you think? I like it :)

And a bonus photo - my dog - the best dog in whole wide world is sunbathing:)

Essie Tart Deco - Spring Collection

2010-02-18T10:14:00.000-08:00

Hello Ladies!

I have a nice springly entry for you today! I'm totally into fresh, non-vampy, colorful nail polishes already :) I can smell spring oh yeah :) I can't wait for the sunny days, looong coffees with friends on the sun and so on!

What do you think about Essie new spring collection? I like 50% of it :) I'm totally inloved with Tart Deco (it was a love on first sight - I knew I want it ever since I saw the first pictures of it) and I like Red Nouveau - a girl can never have too many red nail polishes ;)
I really don't like Lilacism - I just can't stand anything that reminds me of Lavender. Bljak.
And Pop Art Pin is just too boring...

So - the absolute Essie Spring winner is Tart Deco! Isn't it gorgeous?

There are three coats on the photos...the first coat was totally streaky, the second was quite ok and the third was a perfection.

As I applyed Tart Deco I realised that it reminds me of something...of course! The new Alessandro mini nail polish with a name - Clementine! So, here's the comparison:
- Clementine is a bit more orange than Tart Deco
- Tart deco is a bit more peachy than Clementine
- they are both bright cremes and qiute similar...decide for yourself if you need both (I do because I'm a orange/peach/coral lover), they are both 5ml minis and the price is a bit less than 4euro - but you can buy Essie mini only with other 3 minis from Spring Collection)

Which one do you like better?

China Glaze Lubu Heels

2010-02-14T10:24:00.000-08:00

Happy Valentines day ladies!

I hope you enjoyed this holiday! I'm sure your men surprised you with a lovely rose, delicious chocolate or with a passionate kiss and a hug :)
I and my dear celebrated Valentines day yesterday - it was a nice sunny Saturday and we went to Bled for a nice walk and a delicious dinner! And I got a beautiful red rose ;)

Yp, Valentines day as it should be. Just my manicure wasn't classic Valentine red ;) It was almost black with a hint of red ;) it was Lubu Heels. I think it is sexy altough I'm not a big fan of vampy nail polishes.

Check it out

Lubu Heels is a black jelly based nail polish with a big bright red glitter. It totally reminds me of a China Glaze Ruby Pumps. The only difference is a base - Ruby Pumps has a red jelly base and Lubu Heels has a black jelly base.
As I said I'm not a big fan of 'almost black' nail polishes, but I quite like this one. It is special. But only under direct sunlight.

What do you think?

BIG News from Alessandro!

2010-02-09T09:57:00.000-08:00

Hello ladies!

Oh Yeah, I have big news for you!
I was looking for Essence Cute As Hell Trend Edition in our drugstore and unfortunately I didn't find it...but I got lucky anyway :) There was a brand new Limited Edition from Alessandro waiting for me :) It is called...hm...'he loves me'...'love is in the air'...'love at first sight'...Ok, I have no idea...it has something to do with love :)

There was around 7 different mini nail polishes in spring colors. I can already feel the spring! Can't you? I picked 2 colors (the most beautiful of course)!

The first one is a peachy coral - totally my color! I love love love corals and I can't wait for spring and summer - there will be all kinds of corals on my nails ;)
And the second is a nice pinkish color...it is not totally pink because I don't like pinks...I cant really describe this one. I like it. It is not only pink. It is much more.

So, are you wondering what is BIG NEWS from Alessandro?

Look at this photo!!

I'm sure that all fans of Alessandro already know what I mean ;) for those who don't know what I'm talking about - here's the explanation. Alessandro has quite a big collection of nail polishes and at least 4 Limited Edition of Minis per year. And the nail polishes were always marked with numbers! How the hell could you remember the number? And the answer to the question 'What are you wearing today?' was always so hard! 'Hmm...No.:239' Impossible!
And what do you see on the photo? NAMES! Real names (and numbers of course) Not very creative but still - Alessandro has NAMES :)))

Love Love Love - the pink that isn't pink ;)

Clementine - a pretty pretty peachy coral - this is also my NOTD

Do you like spring colors form Alessandro? And more importantly are you so excited about names as I am?

China Glaze For Audrey

2010-02-08T05:25:00.000-08:00

Yeah, I know...this nail polish was already swatched like thousand times...but not yet on my nails ;)
I don't think it is appropriate for winter time...and I'm not sure it suites me. It's not really my style and it is the first minty nail polish in my collection...

BUT I love it anyway! It is just perfect! It reminds me of a summer, it cheers me up, it's not classic, it's different, it's...well...I feel great with this color on my nails!!

I got this 'one of the most wanted' China Glaze from anchek, a newbie in blog sphere - check out her (and kvacka's) new blog Rainbows and Blues

thank you anchek so much!

and now the photos...what do you think?

Las Vegas konad and Sophyto Normalising review

2010-01-24T10:13:00.000-08:00

Hey ladies!

Here's my fresh manicure...nothing special really, but I like it.
I used NYX Las Vegas as a base - that's a gorgeous polish with dark green (but not almost black) jelly base and green glitter. I luuuuv it!
It was a hard decision...to konad or not to konad. I decided to give it a go while I'm totally neglecting konad lately. I used m73 and Avon Mirror Shine Gold foil and this is the result...

Cool, right?
Do you wonder what's that in my hand? For all who have never heard of Sophyto - this is probably the best face cream on earth!
You can read what manufacturer says about this cream on their website.
I have a terrible skin - I have occasional break outs and I need a good moisturizer because my skin can get really dry. That's why I always had troubles finding the right face cream that would not be greasy, wouldn't cause break outs and would moisturize the skin - and be a good base for my mineral make up. This is THE ONE! It's quite expensive though...little less than 30eur, but I think it is worth every cent of it!
It has brilliant ingredients and Soil Association certificate! And I love the package - isn't it cute?

Do you have any experience with Sophyto products?

Antiqa EOTD

2010-01-23T10:10:00.000-08:00

I'm back!

This is the second blog entry today...I have to catch up with you guys ;)

This is not acutally today's make up. It was made few days ago but anyway - let's call it 'eyes of the day', ok? I'd like to show you my new love - purple love.
I have a strange relation to purple...few years ago it was my absolute favorite color! I still like the purple dresses and make ups and manicures....but only on other people! I hate purple on me...at least I did before I discovered Bella Pierre Antiqa pigment. It has a dark grey or brown, almost black base and a gorgeous warm purple shimmer. I wear it at least two times a week :))

I have tons of purple pigments and all of them are pretty...but I just don't feel good wearing them. But Antiqa...it's different! A love it!

Look for yourself! Doesn't it look good on me? :))

I used:
- TFI and Gosh waterproof as a base
- Bella Pierre Antiqa
- The She Space - Choir of angels and Kiss of fantasy
- Everyday Minerals Wet sand as a highlighter
- and Max Factor False Lash effect mascara

Thank for looking!

Nati's nail polish collection - ESSENCE

2010-01-23T05:21:00.000-08:00

Hey ladies!

How are you? It is soooo cold in my room...I have 17 degrees Celsius and that's quite warm for my room (sometimes I have only 12 :)). Well anyway I'm feeling great! I have a day of, a lazy day of ;)

I had a plan for today's blog entry...I wanted to show you my whole nail polish collection! But I realized it is not so small and it would be boring to show you 20 or 30 photos at one time ;)
I'm the most unorganized person! I have my cosmetics and nail polishes lying in every drawer and every sideboard...I'm just terrible! That's why I never knew, not even approximately, how many nail polishes I have. Today I put every single nail polish on my bed and count - the number? around 130! I know it is not a big number for you bloggers but it is a huge one for me!

So I decided to show you my collection in parts - by nail polish brands.
The first brand is Essence - the biggest part of my nail polish collection is Essence. Probably because it is the cheapest nail polish brand in my country. But certainly not the worst :) I love their nail polishes, especially their Limited Editions! They are just great!
The approximate price for one Essence nail polish is 1,7eur.

these are all Essence nail polishes - different LE, that's why all the bottles are so different

Essence has 3 regular lines:
- Multi dimension
- Show Your feet
- Colour&Go (not on the picture) - this one is the worst. It dries to fast - in the bottle I mean

my collection of the regular lines is small...I like limited editions more ;) I still have All access on my wish list! It is from Multi dimension line

These are my oldest Essence nail polishes I think...I love Jelly baby Very berry the most! it's a perfect jelly berry color!

I find Made with love LE perfect for konading CLICK but I'm not very impressed by the Into the ocean LE...I only like Dive deepper - dark greyish-blue with multicolored glitter and shimmer

Here are my favorite LE from Essence - the first one is Creamylicious - Iced chai latte is the perfect opaque nude nail polish - Look at this beauty CLICK
and the second is Glam rock LE! Look at these beauties CLICK

Summer of love and Secrets of the past are...hm....nice collections. I'm totally in loved with Meet you in Budapest of course (it was on my nails for three times now but I never had a chance to take a photo of it) and I like Woodstock. I have to admit I hadn't tried most of them yet :)

and the last photo...for me the ugliest of Essence limited editions - Moonlight collection. these polishes are just too shiny, bljak. There is also the only nail polish from the Colour&Go regular line. There is glitter topcoat - you just can't remove this devil from nails. And the only beauty from All I want LE.

These were my Essences...all 40 of them ;)

Thank for looking!

Alessandro mini Be a Star No.:291

2010-01-16T10:45:00.000-08:00

Hello ladies!

Today was a wonderful day for me! Especially the morning - drinking coffee in my pajamas, reading lifestyle related forums on the internet and petting my dog - he was actually reading ars-cosmetica forum with me - look!

Lol! He is soooo cute! He is the best dog in the whole wide world!

No let me show you my yesterday's manicure. Alessandro No.:291 from a limited edition Be A Star. Maestra from parokeets was so kind and got it for me! Thanks Maestra!

Nice, right?

Thanks for looking!

'5 Guys I Used to Like' Tag

2010-01-13T09:47:00.000-08:00

Hello ladies!

Maestra from Parokeets tagged me :) This is so fun! I have a better day now because I had such a great time looking for these photos and thinking who deserves to be on my '5 most wanted' list :)

So here it goes...

My first Valentine was Lee - there's no doubt about it :) That's Lee Baxter, a member of a boy band Caught in the act. I listened them when I was in kindergarten or primary school and you have to admit - I had a great taste! I still love their music...I'm not so sure anymore that Lee is the most beautiful guy alive though :)))

source

The next Guy I used to like is MacGyver. I enjoyed this episode so much! I think I watched it every time it was on TV. He wasn't as cute as charming....maybe because he was so 'old' (I was in 4th grade or sth. like that)

source

Not so many years ago there was Stargate SG. 1 on TV - Richard Dean Anderson as General Jack O'Neil was so damn sexy! Grown up MacGyver or grown up me :)

source

The third beautiful man from my youth is Enrique Iglesias! I loved his music, his face, his body, his smile....he was just perfect!

source

Mmmm Simon Webbe (from a boy band Blue)...How gorgeous is he? I still love his smile and his music although I think the Blue had better music than Webbe now on his own. Look at this face!

source

and this body!!

source

and the last but not least - a Bad Guy, the sexiest Pirate of the Caribbean, Captain Jack Sparrow and Johnny Depp in all the other roles

source

So what do you think about Nati's fine taste for men? Aren't they gorgeous? Aren't they sexy?

I tag:
- melanie
- Macodvisnica
- Saša from Parokeets
- Konadomania
- darkrose

Quite natural

2010-01-05T02:47:00.000-08:00

Hey ladies!

How are you? I'm quite ok for a depressing January :) I think this is the most boring month of the year!

Let me show you some pics of my yesterday make up...brown and bronze...quite natural look

I love Bella Pierre pigments - the colors are awesome! And I love this combination of Bronze and Penny - they look so good together ;)

Santa's gifts ;)

2009-12-27T04:30:00.000-08:00

Hey ladies!

I have a special manicure today! Yesterday this kvacka's photo from ars-cosmetica forum remided me that there is a similar Jessica nail polish in my collection.

source

I wiped the dust of it and voila, here it is! The beautiful Jessica Crimson new drop from last years Christmas collection Nutcracker Sweet.

I added some 'konad'...it is actually a plate from Essence Stampy set. I used Avon Mirror Shine Copper Sheen.

Quite cool isn't it? Do you wonder what's that in my hands? Those are Santa's gifts for my dear friends from work (actually from my previous job). I made those myself. Different earrings for four different ladies that have a very special place in my life :) I have a new job for a month now and I miss them so much...we're going to spend New Year's Eve together and I just can't wait! I'll give them my present's that day ;)

I think they don't know about my blog so their surprise won't be ruined :))

Here are the photos of my handmade earrings

Thanks for looking ;)

After Christmas manicure

2009-12-26T01:53:00.000-08:00

There is still some Christmas spirit in the air...

Alessandro mini No.:190 over Essie Forever Young. I like classics - true, bloody red with lots of shimmer and flakies - totally Christmas like!

a detail from our Christmas tree

and a piece of Christmas idyll

(at least) 15 Pan Project

2009-12-25T12:47:00.000-08:00

Hello Ladies!

Merry Christmas to you all!! My Christmas day was quite boring because I'm still ill and the weather is just terrible! In the past few days there was snow, freezing and then sun and rain and the difference in temperature was around 25 degrees Celsius - from -12 to 13!! Quite scary isn't it?

Well, because I'm ill and I have too much free time I also have time making my wish lists! I'm terrible...I want...well lots of things I don't need...
- Aubrey Organics Honeysuckle body lotion
- John Masters Organics Blood orange&Vanilla Body lotion
- Ikove sugar scrub and body butter
- Ikove Avokado shower gel
- Lush Aquamirabilis scrub

yeah....and that's just body care cosmetics...don't ask me about decorative cosmetics...

Houston we have problem! I'm a total cosmetics junkie and I need help! I have to USE (at least a little bit) myhuge collection before I buy anything new...
...I love to buy this things but in the end I don't use it a lot...I'm to lazy to use body lotion or body butter in the evening and many times I just use a boring shower gel that my mum buys...and boy scrubs? I use them...once a month maybe :)

Thats the reason I'm opening my 15 pan project! Maybe this blog will help me to become a better person :))

So here are my vows (and some photos):

these are my shower gels...I love Lush The olive branch (no.:3) the most but I don't use it every day because it is too expensive). I like Avon Orient (no.:1) but...well it is nothing special. YR Monoi (2) is just too sweet for winter...I love little TBS shower gels (4) they are great for the nights I'm away from home) and oh my god...all the Lush stuff (5)...I have no comment about that

so - my vow No.1 about the shower gels: When I use at least Avon, The olive branch, YR Monoi and at least 3 Lush soaps I can get something new for myself...reward...Ikove shower gel maybe? :))

Body Scrubs...TBS Wild cherry (3) is great for transporting it because it is little and...it smells awesome! Lush Buffy (5) is one of my favorite scrubs because it leaves skin so soft and moisturized! Balea (1) and Alverde (2) are also ok...and Oriflame (4)...well it sucks. It is to gentle for me.

My vow? When I use Buffy, Alverde and Balea I can afford a new body scrub...maybe Lush Aquamirabilis?

And now my weakest point - body lotions and butters...too many! I won't even write all the names down...
my vow - I have to use at least 6 of them! And then? Aubrey Organics Honeysuckle body lotion come to mama! :)))

Let the game begin! I'll see how it goes!
My plan for tonight - Avon Orient shower gel, Buffy scrub and Lush Love bug (last picture no. 11) for aroma therapy :) I love this little thing!

what do you think? Will I be able to pull this of without buying anything new?

Jessica Celebutante and a bit of Christmas spirit

2009-12-18T07:53:00.000-08:00

Hello ladies!

How are you? I'm great! I have a day off and I'm waiting for my boyfriend to pick me up - we're going to Ljubljana's center again to enjoy the December spirit and to drink some mulled wine (thanks Biba for the word ;))

I'd like to show you the last nail polish from Jessica Social Lights Collection it is called Celebutante, ruby red color. I'm not sure whether it deserves the 'ruby red' tag...but it is beautiful anyway

and a konadicure...I think it is too much....hm....well what a heck it is December :)

I used konad IP m73 and Avon Mirror Shine Gold Foil and a bit of Jessica Starlet to spice up the manicure :)

Green for a gorgeous day!

2009-12-13T13:01:00.000-08:00

Hello ladies!

Yes it was a gorgeous day today! I spend the whole afternoon with my boyfriend...we were dining in a great restaurant mmmmm it was delicious and we went for a walk in center of Ljubljana city enjoying the Christmas spirit :)) and drinking some cooked wine (is there any special word in English for this drink?) I also bought myself a new warm winter cap and I saw the most beautiful handmade jewelery ever!! I'm sure I'll go back to spend some more money ;)

And this was my EOTD - I actually had time to take some photos :))

I used Bella Pierre mineral pigments - I love this Penny color! It goes great with any other color and I adore Refined - it is a blackened grayish blue, just perfect as liner!

Weekend and Sinfuls :)

2009-12-11T09:22:00.000-08:00

Hello ladies!

I'm of duty this weekend and I'm fully enjoying it! I slept looong in the morning, I took my dog for a looong walk (it was a beautiful sunny day) and I was discovering my new Sinful Colors nail polishes I got from Lissa from ars-cosmetica forum few day ago.

It was a wonderful day (it isn't over yet :)

so here are the photos! I got 4 Sinfuls - Deepest ruby, Darkar Copper, Morph del Rio and Volans! I love them all!

Sunshine, oh sunshine :)

and a photo in the shadow

I think I like Volans the least but it was chosen for all ten nails for today...why? Because it is the best base color for konad with Avon Mirror Shine Copper Sheen. Look!

Thanks for looking :)

Bella Pierre mineral make up

2009-12-07T11:07:00.000-08:00

hm....I wonder....can I still write in English? I'm totally out of practice hehe :) Well I'm still alive and still too busy!

But I did took pictures of my make up today! I used Bella Pierre pigments on my eyes and lips
Let photos do the talking

and Desire on my lips - a beautiful rosy pigment with golden shimmer

I'm also totally impressed by the foundation - it is really long lasting!

Well thats all for today...

I'm still alive :)

2009-12-01T12:43:00.000-08:00

Hey Ladies!

I'm so sorry I don't have any time for my blog! I miss you all...
and I miss writing and taking pictures and so on...

well I'm too busy for this right now. I'm helping on a project in my home town (or let's say village :)) and I have a new job! It is quite exciting :)

I still enjoy making make up in the morning but I don't have time to make a photo of it :)) and my nails...well lately I use only long lasting polishes hehe :)

so no make up or nail polish pictures today only an old photo of my dog - this is how he looked like when he was 2 months old. Isn't this the cutest photo ever? it's like he is saying: 'what's up babe?' :)))

China Glaze Orange Marmelade

2009-11-22T13:46:00.000-08:00

Hi ladies!

I'm so busy lately that I don't have time for special manicures...and thanks God I don't even feel like wearing konadicures or anything. I just like simple manicures using only one nail polish (and have time for that only).

Today I want to show you a very special nail polish - it was a love at first sight and a strong one :) This nail polish was on my wish list for many months! It's finally mine!

It's a summer orange with golden shimmer but that doesn't bother me. Why on earth should I wear only dark polishes in the winter? Orange nails and orange&brown make up and here we go - winter energy! :)
This year's winter is one of the best winters I've ever seen! If I can even call this a winter. It is warm (around 15 degrees Celsius), sun is shining, there's no rain or fog...it is one hell of a beautiful autumn...or maybe spring already? It would be awesome to skip cold winter and snow!

As you can read above in my philosophizing there's almost summer for me although it's November :)

My NOTD is China Glaze Orange Marmelade (2 coats)

And now a bonus photo - my precious dog, the best dog in the world :) We go for a walk almost everyday (when I'm not home my mom takes care of him) and in these beautiful sunny days these walks are really something special! Look at this beautiful dog (and weather :))

China Glaze Ginger

2009-11-19T02:30:00.000-08:00

Hello ladies!

I have a major lack of time! Job and an organization of some kind of Festival and so on..and a good news...I have a new job! almost hehe :)

Yesterday I received a package from anchek (from ars-cosmetica forum) full of goodies!
Look!

- Rodeo Fanatic

- Orange marmelade

- Ginger

Ginger is the most interesting (because I love glitters lately - for no good reason :) maybe because December is coming)

Thanks for looking!

Jessica Social Lights collection

2009-11-12T10:28:00.000-08:00

Hello ladies!

It's almost December! That's the only month of the year that I loooove wearing glitter! So for this occasion I bought this Jessica collection of 3 cute nail polishes - the bottles look like little bulbs. Aren't they adorable? (the bulb shape could be the main reason I bought this collection :))

The collection is called Social lights - 'this trio of festive colors is sure to spark some much-deserved attention at every holiday celebration'

Debutante is an interesting shade...the description says it is Midnight Blue while in the bottle looks totally dark purple! And on the nails it really is a midnight blue...hmmm. On this photo you can see the difference between the color in the bottle and the color on the nails:

2 coats

My dog is the most curious animal in the world...and the cutest of course :) and helpful :)

I had to try out the Starlet too. This is the most interesting shade from this collection, totally festive, totally for December! I put only 1 coat of Starlet on the Debutante and look at this effect!

I'll show you the so called ruby red Celebutante some other day :)

Thanks for looking!

S-He 434 Upgraded

2009-11-11T13:24:00.000-08:00

Good evening ladies :)

It was such a nice day! The Sun was shining after a week or more of rainy days! It was wonderful - coffee with friends, some shopping, visiting my boyfriend and a walk with my dog! Could I even wish for a better day? :))

Maybe my manicure could be better :p hehe

Remember S-He 434 I posted this morning? As nihrida named it - plum base with green shimmer. It was sooo beautiful yesterday evening because the green shimmer popped out under artificial light...in the morning a little disappointment came along...there was no green shimmer in the daylight. So....i decided to add some green shimmer by myself :))

I added Alessandro Vamp no.:257 with a sponge to the half of the nails and Avon Mirror shine Gold foil for the stars (that was too much :))

not so bad...not so good :)

S-She Stylezone 434

2009-11-11T00:53:00.000-08:00

I found this beauty yesterday in a DM store. It is obviously an old discontinued nail polish because it was 30% off. It is a really strange color...I'm not sure whether I can describe it. When I was painting my nails yesterday evening under artificial light it was obvious that it it some king of dark vampy purple with green shimmer in it - how special is that! Well today at the daylight it is almost impossible to see the green shimmer - it looks more silver or blue.

Well anyway I like it a lot! It is special and it was cheap - approximately 1,5eur.

What do you think? Do you like it?

Thank You!

2009-11-10T06:09:00.000-08:00

Thank You for voting for my Halloween manicure on Parokeets blog! Every vote made me soooo happy :) You are the best!!

Thanks to you the THIRD place belongs to me :) And the prize? The nail polish I wanted sooo much but I never managed to get it because it was a Limited Edition! That's Essence Meet You in Budapest - you can see the photo of it here! It's PERFECT, don't you think?

Thank You all and thank You Parokeets girls ;) You're the best!

Avon Blue Flare

2009-11-08T13:38:00.000-08:00

Hello Ladies!

One quick entry before I go to bed :) Here's the beautiful grayish blue Avon Blue Flare! Please ignore my terrible dry skin...I have to use hand creams more often!

CG Ruby Pumps vs. Avon Ruby Slippers

2009-11-08T02:16:00.000-08:00

Good Morning :)

I was asked yesterday to do a comparison between China Glaze Ruby Pumps and Avon Ruby Slippers. Hmmm...I can't really decide whether they are similar or not...look at the photos and tell me what you think?

Colors in the bottles are not similar AT ALL (I love the Avon bottle, it is so chic!)

Well on the nails they are quite similar but not a dupe at all.

and a close up...

and my thoughts about resemblance...

And a Final thought of mine - you need both of them :)
Ruby Pumps for Christmas eve an Ruby Slippers for every other day of the year, especially December :)

Thanks for looking!

Avon Ruby Slippers

2009-11-07T03:56:00.000-08:00

Hello Ladies!

I have some terrible photos for you because we have such a stupid weather here in Slovenia! It's raining all the time, there's no sun...

I got these beautiful Avon nail polishes yesterday - Blue Flare and Ruby Slippers

Blue flare is a beautiful grayish blue color which I'll swatch some other day and Ruby Slippers is just a perfect Christmas color! Not so long ago I got China Glaze Ruby Pumps - I like that polish very much but I have to admit I was a little disappointed when I got it...I was expecting a true light red with glitters (that's the Christmas color for me), but it's not so light...it's more of a dark raspberry color.

Avon's Ruby Slippers is the color that I expected China Glaze Ruby Pumps will be like. It is a bright strawberry red with a bit smaller shimmer compared to Ruby Pumps. It is GORGEOUS!

On my crappy photos it looks like it has silver shimmer...it doesn't! it has sparkling red shimmer.

The only bad thing is that even with 3 coats of this nail polish you can see the tips through and it is not really a long lasting...I put it on yesterday evening, took photos in the morning and you can already see the tip wear...but anyway, I like it a lot.

some terrible photos that do not do justice to the beautiful Ruby Slippers

I'll make a comparison of CG Ruby Pumps and Avon Ruby Slippers tomorrow :)

Thanks for looking!

Fall FOTD

2009-11-02T12:08:00.000-08:00

More photos, less words :) I'm too tired :)

Let's just say that this is some kind of a Fall look, made with The She Space pigments. Enjoy ;)

thanks for looking :)

Locked Up Fall

2009-11-01T13:22:00.000-08:00

Hello ladies!

I have something special for you today :) As You probably know I love to read blogs! Nihrida's blog is certainly one of my favorite blogs. She has such an imagination, great skills and good ideas!

A while ago she made a manicure called Locked Up Green. I was drooling all over my keyboard :) I loved it sooo much! And that's why I borrowed her idea - it's an awesome inspiration!

Here's what it came out :) it's not similar to her manicure at all, but I love it anyway. I called it Locked Up Fall...as I said so many times, this Sinful Colors Buster's brown is embodied Fall :)

I used Sinful Colors Buster's Brown as a base color. Then I applied Sinful Colors Color Scare with a sponge on the two thirds of the nails. And then I used Konad IP m60 and Buster's Brown for the 'locked up' effect.

Yeah...I could called this manicure 'Locked Up Sinfuls' as well :))

Enjoy the photos :)

Thanks for looking :)

Halloween!!!! Vote for me :)

2009-10-31T03:25:00.000-07:00

Teal make up!

2009-10-27T14:02:00.001-07:00

Hello ladies!

Remember my yesterday's manicure? Alessandro mini Vamp No.:261 ... thanks to you ladies, I know one more color :)) 'teal' :) Although I love colors I have to admit I hate all the terrible color names... for example 'peach' color. Who invented that stupidity? Peach is a fruit, it's not a color!
OK, let's put my philosophizing on the side an go back to 'teal' color. Yesterday I made this make up to match my beautiful Alessandro nail polish. I used Fyrinnae pigment called Rebellion. It was a gift from Darksome! Thank You Darksome :) It is a beautiful teal color, just a perfect mix of green and blue. I use it a lot! I think it looks good on brown eyes.

I used:
- Revlon Eyeglide as a base
- The She Space, Sweetscents, Fyrinnae and Everyday Minerals pigments
- Coastal Scents Gel liner True black as a liner on upper lid and in waterline (it really lasts long in waterline)
- Make Up Factory All in One mascara

So what do you think? Do you agree that Alessandro and Rebellion are the perfect couple, perfect match?

Thanks for looking!

Alessandro mini Vamp No.:261

2009-10-26T14:06:00.000-07:00

Hello ladies!

One quick entry...I'm so so tired I can't wait to go to bed :)

This is my NOTD - a beautiful Alessandro mini nail polish from Vamp Collection. It has no name (how boring is that) but it has a number 261. It is supposed to be a duochrome - there are 3 colors visible in the bottle - green, blue and purple. On the nails there is just one color - something between green and blue (no purple at all). I can't really describe this color in English. In Slovene language it is called 'petrolej' color. Does anybody know how it is named in English?

Well it's a really beautiful color. It reminds me of a peacock's feathers :)

Here's the beauty:

KOTD and giveaway

2009-10-24T02:09:00.000-07:00

Hello ladies!

Today is such a crappy day. It's raining, it's cold and it's dark...it would be great just to go back to bed and sleep until tomorrow. But I can't, I have to go to work soon...

I'd like to show you photos of my today's konadicure. You could call it 'rain inspired' manicure :)

As a base color I used Alessandro mini from Vamp limited edition No.: 265 (I already showed you the green beauti from this collection No.: 257) It's a nice creme bluish grey color but nothing special. It totally needs konad!

So what to do next? I decided to try my new Avon Mirror Shine nail polish for stamping. You've already seen the 'Gold foil', today I'm going to show you the 'Metallic Mauve'. It's a metallic purple.

You can see the Avon Mirror Shine Metallic Mauve nail polish here (and the Konad Image plate m60)

Here's the result :) I think it's a nice subtle combo.

There's one of my favorite hand creme on the photo - it's L'Occitane hand cream with shea butter. It smells so good and it works great for very dry hands. I have try out some of the new hand creams with shea butter and different scents. I'm sure that they are as good as this one.

Hey, do you know what's coming? Halloween! Well to be honest, I'm not a big fan of this holyday. We have a similar holyday here in Slovenia in February or March - it's not only about witches and vampires but also about clowns, fairies and so on. But anyway, it's fun to make scary faces out of he pumpkins :))

Why am I writing about Halloween? Because girls from Parokeets blog are having their Halloween Special!! I just made my Halloween maniucure yesterday and I can't wait to see all the other photos :))

Have a nice day girls!

Dior Lipsticks :)

2009-10-23T14:11:00.000-07:00

Hey ladies!

I'm so so so happy! The other day my friend made my day :) She gave me (for no big reason, my birthday was in august :)) 2 Dior lipsticks! Well that was really a big gift for me, because I never bought or get anything from Dior. It's just to expensive for me.

I love both colors! And the lipsticks are long lasting and so shiny! I don't even need a lip balm if use those.

See for yourself what nice colored lipsticks I have :))

The first one is no.:384 Rose Scenario. It's a lovely beige-rose color, perfect for everyday. YLBB :)

Rose Scenario on my lips:

The second one is no.:514 Brun Polaris. Nice medium brown color.

Brun Polaris on my lips:

I love Rose scenario more....maybe because I'm still not used to wearing lipsticks and I love neutral colors on my lips and stronger colors on my eyes. Do you see the pattern on lipsticks? There is a star with number of lipstick and a 'Jackpot' sign :)

Thanks for looking ;)

Old photo - my first KOTD ever

2009-10-21T12:30:00.000-07:00

Hello ladies!

Sooo....I can't believe I've never post my first konadicure here :) It's well...quite ok. But I really hate these Konad nail special polishes because they don't work well. As you can see there is kind of a blurry print. I've never had problems with ELF Coral for example (or Manhattan black nail polish) - and it's not 'a special konad polish'. So my conclusion is that I will never buy a 'konad special nail polish again' and that these special polishes are so popular only because there is 'Konad' written on them.

What do you think? Do you like these special polishes or do you prefer regular thick nail polishes that work with Konad?

KOTD with Avon Mirror Shine

2009-10-20T12:35:00.000-07:00

Hello ladies!

I've been so busy lately...I'm working all the time. And in my free time I'm chatting on ars-cosmetica forum . It's only in Slovene language but I have to say that it's the best cosmetic forum in Slovenia. I also write articles for this website about decorative cosmetics - you can read it here and here...and if you don't know Slovene language, you can at least check out the photos - they are also mine :) The first article is about the fall colors in decorative cosmetics (the photos with apple, pumpkins and grapes are the inspirational photos for color combinations on eye make-up looks) and the second article is about purple eyeshadows and nail polishes.

And now some more photos :) here's my very special konadicure :) I like it a lot! I tried Avon Mirror shine nail polish for stamping and it really works awesome! See it for yourself :)

I used:
- Pretty Woman Vitamine Coctail
- China Glaze Wagon trail as a base color
- Avon Mirror Shine Gold Foil for stamping and Konad image plate m60
- Essie Good to go top coat

So what do you think? I LOVE this Avon Mirror shine :))

Something from my country...

2009-10-16T13:17:00.000-07:00

You know...here in Slovenia we have very very (and I mean VERY) bad music! It's obviously 'cool' to be a singer even if you can't sing :)) But there are some nice exceptions I have to say!

I'd like to show you a video of Slovenian choir Perpetuum Jazzile! They are soooooo awesome! What's so special? They don't use instruments! All the sounds you can hear are their voices!! I have to say I'm so proud that we have such an amazing choir here in Slovenia!! Look at this video! I'm sure you know this song!

Awsome, right? I'm going to their concert on Sunday! Can't wait!

Thanks for looking!

A very simple FOTD

2009-10-15T13:24:00.000-07:00

Hello ladies!

How are you? Well I'm quite excited about something :) I'll tell you more few days :)
Today, I'd like to show you a very simple make up. I usually use at least 4 or more eyeshadows - for this make up I used only 2. And I made it to match my beautiful Sinful Colors Buster's brown nail polish.

I used:
- Revlon EyeGlide 01 Pearl as a base
- The She Space pigments
- Everyday Minerals lush as a highlighter
- Coastal Scents gel eyeliner Truffle for upper lid line and waterline
- Make up Factory All in One mascara

so...what do you think?

Sinful Colors Buster's Brown

2009-10-14T12:31:00.000-07:00

Hello ladies!

Let me show you one of my most beautiful nail polishes! It's new, it's Sinful Colors, it's BUSTER'S BROWN! I've never seen swatches of this nail polish before...but I had a great wish for something brown (I adore this color). I decided to give Buster's brown a chance...Sinful Colors nail polishes have never let me down before. Well I thought it will be more of a chocolate brown but it isn't. It's something between Carnelian red and brown with a lot of shimmer (red, I think). It is opaque in just one coat - very good pigmented. There are 2 coats on my photo.

It sure is my favorite nail polish for this fall. What do you think?

Thanks for looking!

The cutest video

2009-10-13T13:01:00.000-07:00

Hello my dear readers!

Unfortunately I don't have much time lately. And the truth is I'm a bit lazy...can't write all the time. Sometimes it's just more fun to read other people's blogs...

But today I have something special for you. I'd like to show you the cutest video I've ever made. You can see here my precious dog Pluto (named after Disney's cartoon character) and his new best friend - the little kitten named 'Še bl Šeka'....well how to translate this name? This little kitten has a mother that is called 'Šeka' which in English means dappled. And Šeka's daughter is 'even more dappled' or 'even more Šeka' :) and that's her name in Slovene language - 'Še bl Šeka' :) Huh I hope you understand what i'm trying to tell here...it's a lousy explanation :)

Just look this video - it's worth more than thousand words!

Thanks for watching!

Konad with Sinful Colors

2009-10-08T10:15:00.000-07:00

You've already seen my manicure today :) it was Sinful Colors China Gold. It is a nice color but you know...it boring to have only nail polish on nails while new Konad plates in the drawer :)

It looked quite a difficult decision how to try out the 2 new Sinful colors nail polishes and new Konad plates...it is known that most of the Sinful Colors nail polishes are quite sheer - so I was sceptic when I decided to try Sinful Colors Buster's Brown for stamping. But you know what? It worked!! And it worked great!!

I used:
- Pretty Woman Vitamine Coctail as a base coat
- Sinful Colors China Gold (you can see the nail polish here)
- Konad image plate m73
- Sinful Colors Buster's Brown for stamping
- Essie Good to go top coat

Here's the result!

So what do you think? Have you ever tried Sinful Colors nail polishes for stamping?

Sinful Colors China Gold

2009-10-08T03:37:00.000-07:00

Yesterday a package from Lissa arrived :)) I got 2 beautiful Sinful Colors nail polishes and a sample of Onyx Minerals Copper eyeshadow! It's beautiful! Thanks Lissa :)

I had to try out the nail polishes! Sinful Colors could easily be my favorite nail polish brand - I love all Sinfuls I have. Unfortunately there is a limited number of colors that everyone has and are swatched million times - for example Color Scare, Kismet elated, Shausha and so on...So I decided to order some new colors. And I'm not dissapointed :))

The first color I want to show you is #20 China Gold. It is a nice color of old gold, perfect fall color. It reminds me a bit of Essie The cove copper (I'll make a comparison soon) which is the only Essie I have that I really don't like. Why? Because of the frost finish and terrible stipes. Well China Gold has the frost finish too, but it's not that obvious.

Here are the photos - what do you think? do you like this color? there are 2 coats on this photos. I didn't have any problems with application.

and a bonus photo - new best friends :) my dog and a little kitty :)

Summer nails - Maybelline Mini Colorama

2009-10-07T12:48:00.000-07:00

Let me show you one of my favorite summer nail polishes - it's Maybelline Mini Colorama 88 Peach Cocktail! This is not NOTD, the photos were made 2 months ago - in the summer.

It's such a beautiful peachy pink color with a lot of shimmer! I love it! There is many others interesting colors by Mini Colorama and they cost 'only' 4euro each. I have to buy the blue one someday (

And some 'konad' made with Essence Stampy set (can't remember which nail polish I used for stamping)...My dog helped me to make this wonderful photos :))

and his gorgeous face- my nails were obviously delicious :)

thanks for looking!

Dreamy make up

2009-10-04T13:02:00.000-07:00

This is my FOTD. It's simple and bright....What do you think?

I used:
- Revlon EyeGlide as a base
- The She Space, Sweetscents and Everyday Minerals
- Wet application of SS Dream over Alverde Gel eyeliner on upper lid
- Max Factor False Lash Effect mascara

China Glaze - Ruby Pumps

2009-10-03T11:43:00.000-07:00

This is my new nail polish! It's so beautiful! Red jelly base with red glitter - it reminds me of Christmas and Rudolf the reindeer. At least some happiness in last few days...I'm going through some very hard times...I have to think positive and be strong...it's so hard sometimes...

Rudolf the reindeer to make you and me smile...

Alverde LE Black & White

2009-10-02T13:40:00.000-07:00

I got soooo lucky today :) I found a whole untouched stand of Alverde Black & White Limited edition :) You can see the photo of the collection HERE to imagine how good it felt :) I barely understand german - I hope you do better so you can read the review and not just look at the photos like I do :)

I could easily buy almost everything! I liked almost everything. But unfortunately my budget does not allow me to buy everything I like so I had to make decisions...

So this is what I bought:

The most interesting thing is of course the Gel eyeliner 01 Schwarz (Black) and the brush. Gel eyeliner is quite liquidly compared to Costal scents gel eyeliner but I think it will work great. The package is so cute and useful.

It is the true black color!

The brush is very soft and pointed. I compared it to Coastal Scents Black Takalon Angle liner - my favorite gel liner brush so far.

I found the ceme eyeshadow very interesting! I think I'll be using this as a highlighter or an eye shadow base. It's very smooth, shiny and quite transparent. It is called Creme lidschatten 404 Silver white. Here's the swatch!

There were also kajal eyeliners in 3 shades - black, white and gray. I liked grey one the most - here's the swatch! It's not so pigmented as I hoped it will be, but it's very soft.

And last but not least mascara in silver color! It's actually a top coat mascara so it's all about the color. I'm not a big fan of silver color but I liked his one anyway.

4 - Nfu Oh 51 nail polish! Do I have to explain?

Chocolate manicure!

2009-09-28T12:32:00.000-07:00

How do you like chocolate? I have to confess...I'm an addict! Maybe that's the reason why I love chocolate brown color so much :)) maybe...
I fell in love in chocolate brown nail polish on parokeets blog! It is just the perfect brown color for fall - not to dark nor to light. I love it! It was from Butterfly kisses limited edition that was released few months ago, so I can be really happy I got it now - I have to say thanks to an angel ;)

Look at this beauty!

something is missing....konad of course :)

For a chocolate inspired konadicure I used:

- Pretty Woman Vitmaine Coctail as a base coat

- Alessandro Butterfly Kisses LE No.:230

- Konad IP m64

- Essence Made with love TE 01 In love

- Essie Good to go as a topcoat

and.....my favorite chocolate! The big 1kg Gorenjka with whole hazelnuts! mmmmmmm

and yeah, I ate this piece :) and another one...

Sponge manicure

2009-09-27T07:44:00.000-07:00

I used:
- Essence Creamylicious Wild Berry Sorbet as a base

Alessandro Vamp No.:257

2009-09-25T07:12:00.000-07:00

Old photos again :) This is Alessandro mini from Vamp limited edition. It is such a beautiful color. Greyish green with silver shimmer and green flakies. I love it! What do you think?

Spet stare fotke :) Tale lak je Alessandro mini iz omejene kolekcije z imenom Vamp. Krasna barva. Sivo zelena s srebrnim šimrom in zelenimi krpicami. Kako se pa vam zdi?

Zoya Ki

2009-09-25T04:05:00.000-07:00

I have a looot of photos for you :) Zoya Ki is a nice green and purple duochrome nail polish! I love it! It would be even more beautiful if the green in nail polish wouldn't be so shy on my nails :) There are 3 coats on the photos (even 2 are just fine).

Danes imam veliiiko fotk za vas :) Zoya Ki je krasen zeleno-vijoličen duochrome lak! Zelo mi je všeč! Še lepši pa bi bil, če zelena barva laku ne bi bila tako sramežljiva na mojih nohtih :) Na fotkah so 3 sloji (že 2 sta sicer dovolj).

Creamylicious Konad

2009-09-23T12:52:00.000-07:00

Hello! I'm still alive :) I'm just soooo tired...I work 9 hours everyday...even weekends and I'm just to tired to take photos or to write here...but it will be better in next days :)

Today I finally uploaded 2 photos that were taken few days ago. The base color is Essence Creamylicious Iced Chai Latte. I used Konad image plate m64 and Konad special polish (Gold brown or something like that) and I really don't like the result! this Konad special polish is just terrible...it doesn't dry...it looks blurry....and after all this Essence Iced Chai Latte nail polish is just so beautiful that it is a shame to cover it with Konad :))

And my dear Slovenian readers...I'm sorry but I am to tired to translate all this for you :) Forgive me!

Essence Creamylicious - nude wannabe

2009-09-19T11:34:00.000-07:00

O my God, I loveeee this nail polish!
I'm not a fan of nude nail polishes, because they are usually sheer. But this one...this one is just perfect! Perfect application, very good pigmented (one coat is almost enough) and the color...ohh...it really is the color of Iced chai latte...it looks delicious!
I'm not used to this kind of nails. I usually paint my nails with strong colors. With this color I feel almost nude...like I have no pants on :) but anyway, it's gorgeous!
What do you think?

OMG, kak prečudovit lak!
Nisem ravno ljubitelj nude lakov za nohte, ker so ponavadi prosojni. Ampak tale...tale je naravnost popoln! Nanaša se super, pigmentiran je zelo (skorajda je dovolj en sloj laka) in barva...ohhh...to je es barva ledene kave..izgleda slastno!
Takšnih nohtov nisem navajena. Ponavadi jih pobarvam s kako močno barvo. S tem nude lakcem pa se skorajda počutim kot da sem brez hlač :) ampak vseeno je božanski!
Kaj pravite?

Green make up

2009-09-18T13:32:00.000-07:00

You've already seen the swatch of The She Space Role Reversal eyeshadow and now you can see the Role reversal on my eyes. It's a really beautiful dark green with gold shimmer so it's a makes a great combo with browns!

Swatch TSS senčke Role Reversal sem vam že pokazala, danes pa jo lahko vidite tudi na mojih očeh. Je res krasna temna zelena z zlatim šimrom in se zato krasno dopolnjuje z rjavimi senčkami!

I used:
- Revlon Eyeglide 01 Pearl as a base
- The She Space, Everyday Minerals and Sweetscents pigments
- Coastal Scents gel liner Truffle on upper lid and in waterline
- Max Factor False Lash Effect mascara

The She Space swatches - Greens

2009-09-16T03:57:00.000-07:00

You've already seen my swatches of TSS browns now I would like to show you my green TSS eyeshadows. The fact that they are all from the Gemini colllection is just an interesting coincidence. Look carefully the photos in this post! You can see that the colors in bags are totally different than swatches! Take 'a tale of twins' for example. It looks really dark green in the bag, a bit gray or brown! But when I put it on my skin it turned out that is not even roughly dark. It's a really light almost torqouis green. So be careful when you are making or looking photos of eyeshadows in bags - it could bi quite misleading.

Moje swatche TSS rjavih senčk ste si verjetno že ogledali , danes pa bi vam rada pokazala moje zelene TSS senčke. Dejstvo, da so vse iz Gemini kolekcije, je zgolj zanimivo naključje in ni načrtovano. Pazljivo poglejte fotke v tej objavi! Vidite lahko, da se nekatere barve v vrečkah popolnoma razlikujejo od swatchev! Poglejte npr. 'a tale of twins' - v vrečki izgleda zelo temno zelena, celo malo siva ali rjava! A ko sem jo nanesla na kožo, se je izkazalo, da niti približno ni temna! Je res zelo svetla, skorajda malo turkizno zelena. Bodite torej pazljivi, ko fotkate ali gledate fotke senčk v vrečkah - le te so lahko zelo zavajajoče.

Don't forget to click for larger images!

Light greens:

- Flip Flop

- Re-creating chaos

- Gemini Rising

I can't really see much difference between Flip Flop and Gemini Rising...

Skorajda ne vidim razlike med Flip Flop in Gemini rising...

-------------------

Darker greens:

- Role Reversal

- A Tale of twins

- Diligence does good

I looove Role Reversal! It's a dark green with gold shimmer!

Role Reversalk je prekrasna! Temna zelena z zlatim šimrom!

Red Rose KOTD

2009-09-16T01:56:00.000-07:00

A week ago I bought this Wet'n'wild nail polish in 'Timeless Red'. It's a nice, deep red color with red shimmer. This is my first Wet'n'wild nail polish and I like it a lot - the application was smooth, it took only 2 coats to achieve the color as it is in the bottle and the price is acceptable - around 4eur a bottle. So I hope it is not my last W'n'w nail polish.

Teden nazaj sem si privoščila ta Wet'n'wild lak za nohte v odtenku 'Timeless Red'. Barva je krasna, globoka rdeča z rdečim šimrom. To je moj prvi lak te znamke in me je kar navdušil - nanaša se brez težav, z samo 2 slojema sem dosegla barvo stekleničke, pa tudi cena je sprejemljiva - okoli 4eur za stekleničko. Tako da upam, da to ni moj zadnji Wet'n'wild lak.

---------

I think that the rose pattern on Konad IP m65 looks the best on red nail polish - it reminds me of antique rose fabrics. So this was great opportunity to try it for the first time. I used ELF Coral for stamping - it looks totally gold this way.

Zdi se mi, da vzorček vrtnic na Konad m65 plati najbolje izgleda na rdečem laku za nohte - spominja me na staro blago. Wet'n'wild lak je bil odlična podlaga in krasna priložnost, da končno sprobam ta vzorček. Uporabila sem ELF Coral za konadiranje - na tak način izgleda popolnoma zlat.

Blue and brown make up

2009-09-14T10:00:00.000-07:00

This was my yesterday make up. I had to create something to match my nails in chocolate and gold color and my blue T-shirt. So this is what it came out! What do you think? I love the combination of brown and blue.

To je moj včerajšnji make up. Ustvariti sem morala nekaj, kar bi se ujemalo z mojimi nohti v čokoladni in zlati barvi ter z mojo modro majico. Tako je nastalo tole. Kaj mislite? Meni je kombinacija rjave in modre blazno všeč.

I used:
- Revlon Eyeglide 01 Pearl as a base
- The She Space and Everyday Minerals pigments
- Coastal scents Gel liner True black on upper lid
- Revlon ColorStay Eyeliner Black in waterline
- and Max Factor False lash effect mascara

and some more photos...

The She Space swatches - browns

2009-09-13T01:30:00.000-07:00

As you can see on my make up photos I mostly use Sweetscents and The She Space pigments! I love The She Space pigments because they are cheap, the number of colors is endless and the new colors are just coming and coming! This is their website. I love the descriptions and names of eyeshadows - they are so unique!
I have quite a big collection of TSS and I'll try to swatch all pigments for 2 reasons: that I can show the photos to you and that I can remember all the differences between eyeshadows - this is how I get to know my pigies :) In my first 'swatch' post I'll show you my brown pigments.

Kot ste verjetno že opazili na mojih make up fotkah, večinoma uporabljam Sweetscents in The She Space mineralna senčila. The She Space senčke so super, ker so res poceni, barv je skorajda neskončno in vsak mesec znova prihajajo ven nove in nove barve! Tole je njihova spletna stran. obožujem imena in opise senčk - tako izvirni so!
Moja zbirka TSS senčk je kar velika in v načrtu imam poswatchati vse senčke - za to imam 2 razloga: da jih pokažem vam in predvsem, da si sama zapomnim razlike med senčkami - na tak način jaz spoznavm svoje pigije :) V prvem 'swatch' postu vam om pokazala rjave senčke.

Well, what do you think? Neutral or boring? I think it's boring :)
Kaj pravite? Nevtralno ali dolgočasno? Meni se zdi dolgočasno :)

I used:
- Revlon Eye glide 01 Pearl as a base
- Sweetscents, The she space and Fyrinnae pigments
- Max Factor False lash effect mascara

Konad Made with Love

2009-09-12T03:06:00.000-07:00

Let me show you my konad of the day - I named it Konad Made with love :) I used new Essence TE Made with love nail polishes in brown and gold. They really do work great with Konad.

Naj vam pokažem moj konad današnjega dne - poimenovala sem ga Konad Made with love :) Uporabila sem nova TE Essence Made with love laka v rjavi in zlati barvi. Res super delujeta s Konadom.

I used:
- Pretty Woman Vitamine Coctail as a base
- Essence TE Made with love 'In love' brown nail polish
- Essence TE Made with love 'Love of my life' gold nail polish for stamping
- Konad image plate m64
- Essie Good to go top coat

Surprise for Aunty Nati

2009-09-11T13:44:00.000-07:00

I was so surprised today! My niece was in some kind of summer school (i'm not sure whether this is the right expression in english or not - but it's not important anyway :)) this week. She came home today and she brought a little surprise for her aunty :) a pair of wonderful earrings! She's only 10 years old and she already know what's cool :)

Danes je res en lep dan - najprej izvem da sem naredila en težek izpit na faksu, potem pa doživim še eno prijetno presenečenje! Moja nečakinja je bila ta teden v 'šoli v naravi', danes se je vrnila domov in svoji tetki prinesla eno prav luštno presenečenje :) Par čudovitih uhanov! komaj 10 let ima, pa že tako izvrsten okus :)

The earrings are quite large. The material looks like some kind of feathers but it's not. It is made of soft black plastic.

Uhani so dokaj veliki. Izgledajo kot da so iz nekakšnega perja, pa niso. Narejeni so iz mehke črne plastike.

She's the best niece in the whole wide world :)
Najboljša nečakinja na celem svetu :)

I have to show you another beautiful Sinful Colors nail polish! It's name is Karma and it was a gift from Nihrida :) Thank You Nihrida sooo much! Here is Nihrida's blog - I'm sure you all know this nail artist ;) Karma is just perfect for me! Everybody knows that Nati loves coral nail polishes! Corals are so so so pretty :) I love them all :) This one is quite orange coral with golden shimmer. Unfortunately you can't see the shimmer on the photos...it's only visible in direct sunlight (where my camera doesn't work properly). So...imagine the golden shimmer haha :)

Naj vam pokažem še en prekrasen Sinful Colors lak za nohte! Sliši na ime Karma in Karma je bila darilce od Nihride :) Lepa lepa hvala Nihrida! Tu je Nihridin blog - prepričana sem, da že vsi poznate to umetnico :) No Karma je naravnost perfektna zame! Vsi vedo, da Nati obožuje koralne lake! Koralčki so tako zelo lepi - prav vsi! Ta koralček z imenom Karma je precej oranžna korala z zlatim šimrom. Na žalost šimra na fotkah ne vidite...viden je samo na direktni sončni svetlobi (kjer pa moj fotoaparat ne deluje tako kot bi moral). Torej...predstavljajte si zlat šimer, ko gledate fotke haha :))

Sinful Colors Pink Diamond

2009-09-07T10:09:00.000-07:00

This Pink Diamond is a gift from anchek! Thank you anchek, the nail polish is absolutely wonderful! :) It's quite sheer, so I there is 1 layer of Essence Multi dimension Why not? first and then 2 layers of Sinful Colors Pink Diamond. It's really lovely pink color with lot of silver and pink shimmer.

Ta Pink Diamond je bil darilce od anchek! Hvala ti anchek, res! Lak je res krasen :) Sam po sebi je precej prosojen, zato sem za prvo plast uporabila Essence Multi dimension Why not? (tudi to je anckina ideja) in nato 2 plasti Sinful Colors Pink Diamond. Res je luštna pink barva z ogromno srebrnega in pink šimra.

and a very very veeeery old photo of Essence Why not? it's so streaky..

Nfu Oh 51 & Essie Matte about you

2009-09-07T01:59:00.000-07:00

Remember the post about Purple rain? There you can see a terrible photo of Nfu Oh 51. The nail polish is so beautiful, so special, I have to dedicate a whole post to it and show you brand new photos - better ones of course.

Se spomnite prispevka z naslovom Purple rain? Tam lahko vidite eno grozno fotko laka Nfu Oh 51. Ta lak je tako lep, tako poseben, da mu preprosto moram posvetiti en cel prispevek in vam seveda pokazati nove, veliko boljše fotke :)

don't you just love the bottle? it's so beautiful! No doubt the most beautiful bottle I've ever had!

a ni lepa steklenička? nekaj posenega, v obliki ženskega korzeta. Gotovo nalepša steklenička kar sem jih kdajkoli imela

and a detail photo

And now the matte version - as you know matte top coat looks the best on very shimmery nail polishes. Nfu Oh is surely THE MOST shimmery nail polish. So how does it look like with matte top coat?
In zdaj še mat verzija - kot veste, mat nadlak izgleda najbolje na zelo šimrastih lakih. Nfu Oh pa je brez dvoma NAJBOLJ šimrast lak. Kako torej izgleda zmatiran?

Purple rain

2009-09-05T13:39:00.000-07:00

Feeling purple today...it was a rainy saturday. I'm listening to the Prince's Purple rain. Such a great song.
Did you know that purple's common connotations are wisdom, simphaty, friendship...and poison? Yeah, I'm feeling purple today :)

V slovenščini ne zveni tako dobro :) feeling purple - počutim se vijolično :) Pravkar poslušam Prinčev komad Purple rain. Res kultni komad, ne morem se ga naposlušat. Nekako sodi k mojemu počutju danes...deževno, melanholično. Ste vedeli, da se vijolična uporablja v zvezi z modrostjo, simpatijo, prijateljstvom...in strupom? Jes, danes se počutim vijolično :)

Whatever...let me show you the photos. They are far more interesting then my thoughts :)
Naj vam raje pokažem fotke..so veliko bolj zanimive kot pa moje misli

I used:

- Too faced shadow insurance

- Gosh waterproof eyeshadow Love that brown!

- The she space pigments

- Everyday minerals highlighter

- Max Factor False Lash effect mascara

and some more...

And my nails? They're feeling purple too...
