I hope you’re not too sick of my reviews I’ve been posting lately… the truth is, deadlines make things happen, if I don’t have a deadline, months can go by without me finding the time to post anything. And it’s not that I don’t want to, it’s the fact that it does take that much time. I used to have it as a student, I can imagine myself being a student again (not in the exam era though) and spending hours a day doing manicures, make up and blogging, gosh that would be really nice =) However I graduated and made my everyday full of obligations, I could lay on the couch every day after work but apparently I don’t really want to (ohhh, but the thought sounds soooo promising! =P). My manicures take the toll as well – I change them once a week and lose sleep (literally) because of it. Today’s manicure is no exception – I had no time to do the whole nail routine, so I just twisted up the one I had been wearing for 6 days…
So today I am showing you a polish that I bought myself, I finally found this one on the shelf of Mueller – ever since it was released, it kept being sold out in every store I went to… now it’s mine, Essence Sparkle Sand Effect in Hey, Nude! =) I’ve read it in reviews that it is sheer, so I thought this would be perfect to layer over my last manicure I showed you in my previous post – Catrice Mona Lisa is staring back. I left the accented nails with nail stickers untouched and here’s the result:
I wore this for 3 more days before taking it off. I was amazed at how well it stayed on my nails for the whole time! I had 1 layer of base polish Essie Nourish me, another layer of Essie Fill the gap (I don’t know exactly why I keep using the latter, I thought it was a ridge filler, it is and it isn’t, still figuring it out – but it bubbles like crazy, thankfully on the “inside” of the surface), then it was 3 layers of Catrice Mona Lisa is staring back, a layer of top coat Essie Good to go, and then another layer of Essence Hey, Nude! – 7 layers!!
I like this manicure a lot =) What do you think? =)
Obožujem tvoje nohte. Manikura pa je prav tako super.
ReplyDeleteHvala Evelina! =)
DeleteJaz sem tudi zelo dolgo iskala za lak in ko sem ga končno kupila, priznam, da sem mila razočarana, ker sem pričakovala, da bo bolj "bel", vsaj sodeč po nekaterih swatchih. Tvoj je po moje najbolj realen swatch od tega laka, kar sem jih videla po blogih. Je pa meni všeč, da pogosteje objavljaš. :D
ReplyDeleteJaz sem bila šokirana, ko je končno bil na polici, tudi sicer sem ga iskala na napačni strani - pričakovala sem belega. Hvala, tudi meni ;) so pa za te objave krivi prazniki ;D
Delete7 layers sounds crazy as hell, hahaha xD But gorgeous mani! Love it, simple, subtle, very classy... <3
ReplyDeleteThank you Niky! =)
DeleteWooow, vse pohvale za lepe nohte. Kako jih neguješ ? Ta lak s Sand efektom je v redni prodaji ? Ne vem zakaj, ampak na Ptuju še nisem zasledila nobenega takega laka od Essence.
ReplyDeleteKo pa vprašam prodajalke, me pa po strani gledajo. :-)
Hvala Maja, z redno nego so takile, uporabljam pa olje za obnohtno kožico (vsa, ki sem jih probala, so do sedaj delovala).
Deleteful lepa manikura in maš res lepe nohte. Srečna ti, če lahko kaj počneš z dolgimi. Jaz jih rakoj postrižem, ker potem sem kot Edward Scissorhands :D
ReplyDeleteZadnje čase ne zdržim s preveč dolgimi nohti... =P
DeleteVery elegant!
ReplyDeleteThank you La Gazzelle! =)
DeleteWaaaw zelo lepa manikura. Poleg tega imaš zelo lepe dolge nohte, všeč mi je oblika :)

DeleteZelo lep sand lakec <3 Ga imam že kar nekaj časa med nesprobanimi v svoji zbirki :)
ReplyDeletePravijo, da je sam po sebi precej neprekriven, pa sem ga raje tako sprobala =)
