My first post on more than one subject. :P
I just came back from vacations, I had a great time at the beach every day (oh the sun, the sea….!!), just not enough time for polishes – yup, I’m an addict. :P But I have somehow managed to take some time in the evenings to do some manicures ^ ^
First I’m going to show you what I wore in the beginning. On my hands was Kinetics Forget-Me-Not polish, a blue polish with blue glitter and a purple reflection in the bottle that didn’t really transit to my nails :/
A bottle in the sun (it is so hard to capture the purple shine, you can see it just a little by the “K”):
My nails and the bottle on a cloudy day:
I love this kind of color, but sadly the polish is very sheer, I put on three coats and it still wasn’t completely opaque… :( The tips of my nails were soon worn out as well. Such a shame for such a beauiful polish :( I’ll post more pictures of it in a separate post.
On my feet I wore Essence Show Your Feet 25 Kiss of the mermaid from this year’s Trend Edition:
This is another Essence SYF perfection, I put only one coat on and it was sooo bright :))) On the sun it was neon like, totally right for the summer :))) But maybe I should’ve put two coats of it or at least a top coat on for it rubbed off on the tips in just a couple of days because I wore shoes in the evening :/ Oh well, an excuse for another color… ;)))
While I was on vacations, I run out of cotton pads and decided it would be easier to buy them in a grocery store while buying food than purposely going to the drugstore just for that. I bought Jasmin pads, payed a little less than 1,5€, brought them home, used them and became totally frustrated. These were the pads:
And the reason for my frustration – wherever there was a flower on the pad, it instantly fell apart without much rubbing :/
…and here’s what the pads looked like after some rubbing:
Come on!!
I guess you could say the pads are really sensitive, not that they are meant for sensitive skin :/
Unless you want that to happen to your pads, I would advise NOT TO BUY these. I would get more for less money in a drugstore – lesson learned!
…Afterwards I was in Müller and I saw this, an almost full rack of Essence Miami Roller Girl TE (one shade of polish was missing):
I was excited, but then I realised I don’t really like most of it in person or that I really don’t need it. Nevertheless I bought this:
I’m not really an orange kind of girl, I prefer pink over red, but after swatching both testers of balms on my hand the orange one left a prettier pink than the pink one. Both smelled deliciously like candy though (and I’m a sucker for nice smelling stuff :PP). The balm actually leaves color on lips and it is moisturising, my lips didn’t dry out, yeeeey :))) I payed 2,19€ for it.
Did you get anything from this TE?
That’s it for this post, I hope you liked it! :)
