H&M Aquatini

Guess what? There was actually some sun yesterday, so I have sort of sunny pics:)

This polish has been sitting in my stash for at least a year and I haven't worn it before. I have no idea why, just look at the lovely blue with shimmer! I did have a huge problem with chipping though - it chipped in a matter of hours, sort of like the Zoya mattes. It looks like it's only going to be ok for short work days unfortunately.

Nubar - Earth

I read about Nubar being one of the best brands many many times. I didn't have any, so I struggled not to believe it:) Now I'm a believer. Chris sent me this polish, and the formula is great. The application is great. The colour is magnificent. The bottle is lovely. It's just perfect!

Ciate - Ditch the heels

I also got this one from Maja at Licila.si. She said she doesn't like it, so she gave me hers. I really don't understand, how can you not like this polish? Of course I didn't say that out loud, the important thing is that this baby is now with me :))

It took two coats, dried nicely and wore great. I had it on for 4 days and it didn't chip, just some tip wear. I definitely recommend this!

Ciate - Headliner

When I got home yesterday, this baby was sitting on my desk waiting for me. It was a birthday gift from Maja at Licila.si. Maja, I looove youuuu!! They just started selling Ciate polishes, and I was waiting for my paychech to splurge on one. Believe it or not, Headliner was at the top of my list.

Of course I put it on as soon as I got it, I couldn't wait! I love the brush and application. It dries semi-matte, so I put a coat of Seche Vite (thank you Chris!) on top. I have tears in my eyes, I love it that much. What's there not to love?

Giveaway winner!

Wanna know who won my giveaway? ;)


Lendoxia!

I'll be emailing you asap, and congratulations!

On a side note- would any of you girls be interested in a swap of used polishes? I have piles of ones I only tried and am positive I'll never wear again.

Eyeko - Posh Polish

I'm trying out something new - subtle manicures for college. I don't think it's going to stick:)





This is Eyeko - Posh polish. The formula was great, two coats. No TC.




And just for fun - A picture of Puhek (Fluffy), one of my two guinea pigs.

China Glaze - Entourage and Barry M - Instant Nail Effect

Yes! I'm finally back to blogging! I found a lamp in my living room that I can take almost decent pictures with, so better than nothing.

Here's a mani I was sporting at the beginning of this week. China Glaze - Entourage, topped with Barry M crackle polish. ChG would take at least three polishes to look ok enough to wear alone, but I got away with two because I put the crackle polish over it. I didn't put any top coat on, because I wanted the crackle polish to stay matte. Consequently, the black started falling off in pieces in matter of hours. Damn was I angry :S
