Fleur de Santé – Sparkling Pink

Nekaj časa nazaj me je kontaktirala slovenska ekipa Fleur de Santé z vprašanjem, če sem pripravljena testirati nekaj njihovih produktov in podati oceno o njih na svojem blogu. Pripravljena sem bila sodelovati in tako sem prejšnji teden prejela pošto z izdelki, s katerimi sem zadovoljna nad pričakovanjem – saj poznate to, ko podjetja v katalogu ali na internetni strani ponujajo izdelke, pa so odtenki ličil na sliki drugačni kot v resnici, ali pa je odtenek mogoče pravi, vendar ličilo ni kvalitetno… danes vam predstavljam prvi izdelek, ki sem ga probala, lak za nohte Sparkling Pink.

A while ago I was contacted by Slovenian Fleur de Santé team with a question whether I am interested in testing some of their products and writing my opinions on them on my blog. I was willing to try them out so last week I got the package with their products. I have to say they are much much better than I expected them to be – you know the feeling when companies put pictures of products in catalogue or internet and the picture they are displaying is nothing like the real product, or maybe the shade is right but the quality is bad… well here is the first product I tested, the nail polish Sparkling Pink.

 

Lak ima primerno ime in je zelo bleščeč, vendar je imel moj fotoaparat svoje predstave o tem, kaj vidi, zato sem imela težave zajeti ves lesk. Že v steklenički je viden droben shimmer/bleščice različnih barv, predvsem so v primerjavi z osnovno svetlo roza bazo tu in tam izstopale modre mini bleščice, vendar sem bila skeptična, koliko tega je na koncu vidno na nohtih. Čas je bil, da ga preizkusim!

The polish has the right name, boy it’s sparkly! Unfortunately I couldn’t really capture all the sparkling right with my camera. You could see it in the bottle that it contains small shimmer/glitter of different colors, mainly the tiny blue glitters stood out from the light pink base, but I was skeptical of how much of that would transfer to nails. It was time to put it on!

Na zadnji sliki se na sredincu in  mezincu vidi, kako se lak lesketa v različnih barvah, čudovito! =) Še detajl:

You can see the sparkling in the last picture, gorgeous! =) In detail:

Lak se lepo maže, suši se hitro, všeč mi je kratek čopič, ki sicer ni nič posebnega, vendar so taki danes že redki ;) Na žalost pa je velik minus po mojem mnenju prosojnost. Po začetni normalno debeli prvi plasti sem ugotovila, da bi jih rabila še deset takih, če bi želela doseči popolno prekrivnost. Druga in tretja plast laka sta tako bili zelo debeli, pod določenimi koti pa se še vedno vidijo obrisi konice nohta. Temu se bom naslednjič izognila tako, da ga bom uporabila preko baznega laka podobne barve, saj je lak vseeno prečudovit, da bi zaradi tega postal pozabljen. Kako bi se lahko uprla temu, da mi vsake toliko pomežikne kakšna modra mini bleščica? ;)

The polish applies nicely, it dries fast, I like the short brush which is not really special but getting rare these days ;) Unfortunately opacity is a big minus in my opinion. After applying the first normal layer I figured I would need ten more of those to reach full opacity. The second and the third layer were thus very thick, nevertheless the nail line is still visible under some angles. Next time I will use it over a base polish of similar color, because I still think it is too gorgeous to be forgotten just because of that. How could I resist it when from time to time a small blue glitter winks at me? ;)

So tudi vam všeč taki odtenki lakov?

Do you like that kind of shades of polish as well as I do?
