Crack 'em black Mommy =)
This is the name of the essence crackle polish in black, and I had to remove the sticker just to read the name, because they decided that there will be black words on the bottle that contains black fluid, REALLY SMART =).
I'm not a big fan of crackle polishes, this is why I'm not all over the Shatters and China Glaze crackles, but still I wouldn't be a polishaholic if I didn't own at least one crackle polish. Right?
And because all of my friends know that I'm really into nail polish, they asked me if I've heard about a nail polish that cracks.
Doh, of course I know them, there is no chance that I would miss such a big trend as this is =)( but I kinda forgive them because some of them don't know I write a nail polish related blog and that there is literally no chance that I would miss this trend) . Anyway, they wonted to see this polish and I brought it to college with me, and I wouldn't be me if I wouldn't show this to my friend, and because I was wearing Mommy Kissing Santa I got black and red combo =). I'm really sorry because the picture quality is really bad, but it was the best I could do in the capital. ) This reminds me that I have to ask you if you want to see my new student dorm room in Ljubljana?)
Here is what I ended up with :
I must admit I don't hate the combination =).
I also have a fun story to share with you =)
Last Thursday I was cleaning dust from my dorm's room and I have about 15 bottles of polish there on the shelf. And I said to my room mate: Why the hell have I brought so much polishes here, now I'll have to remove them all and then place them back again( I know 15 polishes is really too much work to do ^_^). She only give me a surprised look and said that she hasn't seen so much polishes in her life, turning away was the only thing I was able to do, before I burst into a big laughter. I only thought: What would you say if I showed you the whole collection =).
Btw, I really like my room mate, she is a good person, and we get a long really well =). She also doesn't mind the smell of a nail polish remover =). But sadly she is here on Erasmus student exchange(she's from Slovakia) and she'll be gone at the end of this semester =(. I'm already afraid what my new room mate is going to be like *bitting nails*
How do your friends feel about your nail polish addiction?

"Saturday" - Lyrics
7:10, i slept in this morning
Last night i partied way too late
Stayed up past 8, i had too much sugar
But i still gotta have my cereal
Snap, crackle, pop. Even though it's the weekend
I'm gonna go stand at the bus stop
My friends drive up, even though we're 13.....
Kickin' in the front seat
Sittin' in the back seat
Oh crap, there's more seats?
Which seat can i take? Hmmm.... *stops and thinks for a while, people in the van are mad*
It's Saturday, Saturday
Yesterday was Friday
Incase you didn't know the days in the weekend
Saturday, Saturday
Tomorrow is Sunday
Now you can say you know the days in the weekend
Pizza and Pinatas (yeah!)

Fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun.....
*lost in it, spacing out maybe falls down just as we cut*
*we cut her off and it's the 2nd verse now...*

I've never been up quite this late
Fun, fun, can't stop saying fun
Now we're in the car
I'm in here, you're in here
My friends are in the car *aaaay*
On the right. On the left.
Now they fell out.
No one's in the front seat
No one's in the back seat
Oh look at all these seats
Which seat can i take?
It's Saturday, Saturday
Yesterday was Friday
Incase you didn't know the days in the weekend
Saturday, Saturday
Tomorrow is Sunday
Now you can say you know the days in the weekend
Cake and musical chairs (yeah!)

Duck, duck, duck, goose!
This party is the best party.
Yesterday is Today (today)
If you go back one day. (one day)
It's so so confusing
It's so confusing
There should be only one day
I wish it was Friday again.
So tomorrow would be todaaaaaaay
I don't want this world to end.

Some crappy swatches/layering/comparison
Because I can't find my camera USB cable I can't upload the pictures from my camera ( I really think that my brother has something to do with the missing cable) so I've got nothing else to show you, but these really bad photos that are quite old, but not really old =).
On the first I used 2 coats of Essence Black out from Black and White LE
Than I played with one of the fauxnad plates and Make me holo top coat, which is also from Black and White LE, but I didn't take a picture. I only took a picture later, when I added different top coats to compare finishes that they make.
I used Essie good to go on my index finger, no top coat on the middle finger, ProNails mat finish on ring finger, and Essence matt top coat on the pinkie.
Top coats I used from L to R: Essie good to go, ProNails mat finish, Essence matt top coat
In the end I applied these polishes on my nails, I really can't remember how many coats on which fingers, because these pictures were never meant to be published, because my nails are really messy, but I had no choice =(.
Pleas be gentle with the criticism.
Have a nice day =)
My first REAL scotch tape manicure
HI!
Lately there is a lot of scotch tape manicures in the blogging word because of Erika from Chloe's nails. She makes really awesome nail arts only with scissors and scotch tape(but I think you all already know this)! In one of her posts she also used crafting scissors and because I loved it so much I just had to try it. You can check out here version here.
Here are the pictures of my version:
I used 2 coats od Color Club: Frostbite for the base, and than added one coat of Essence: Fatal. In the end I applied Seche Vite fat drying top coat.
Do you like my version of scotch tape manicure?
This wasn't my first attempt of a manicure with a scotch tape. A few years ago, I wanted to do a manicure in rasta colours, and I also used scotch tape for it, but because I didn't wait long enough for all the coats to dry I had a really ugly manicure instead =). At least I learned a lesson from that. And also this is probably the reason why I waited so long to try it again, but as I asid I just couldn't resist the crafting scissors pattern =).
There is also something new on my blog. I'm going to do Guest Nails! posts. You can read more about them here. I really hope this will work, because I think it is a great opportunity for unknown bloggers to gain some readers and also I will also have a wonderful opportunity to meet some of my followers more in person =).
Have a nice day!

Color Club Revvvolution vrs. Color Fever Black Diamond
Hi!
Yesterday I promised a comparison between Revvvolution and Black diamond.
You can see how different they look in the bottles in shade
Revvvolution looks a lot more lighter grey shade than black diamond
another picture of the nails in shade, here you can see, that Revvvolution is much darker on nails than it is in the bottle. Revvvolution looks almost black here, while BD is still dark grey as in the bottle.
And now, to the pictures on sun and the holographic effect.
I have to warn you, that it wasn't the best day for a holographic nail polish comparison, because the sun wasn't shining at it's best so the holographic effect isn't as visible as it should be. But still we can see how different the holo effect is. BD has more scattered holo which is also weaker and Revvvolution has more rainbow looking holo, also the holographic glitter isn't the same. Revvvolution has more orange and BD has more blue glitter in it. I hope you'll be able to see that on the next 2 pictures
sorry for such a big photo, but I just had to enlarge it *blush*
I know that this is not the best comparison, but I think that it is clear that this 2 polishes aren't even close to being dupes, and I'm glad I have both of them , especially beacuse I'm a holo fan =).
What do you think about this 2, which one do you like more? Do you think you need both?

Pretty Pink Pants
Hi, sorry for not posting a while.
Today I'm going to show you haw I upgraded my manicure with Zoya Roxy. But before I show you the pictures I must say, that I got this idea from Rebecca from Goose's glitter, which is definitely worth a visit. I really like her manicure, and also the story, why this manicure was created. You can see her manicure here.She named her post Ugly mint pants, of course I just had to copy the name to. I only changed Ugly into Pretty because I kinda like the combination, but I can't even imagine a man wearing pants in the color of Roxy =). Rebecca, I hope you won't get too upset upon my crime. =)
Here are the pictures:
Roxy is soooooo beautiful with shiny TC. I |
I used black polish from Essence from B&W LE and also added 1 coat of Essie G2G. Sadly the dots I made with Roxy are nearly invisible.
And later I even mattified it. I kinda like the look I end up with, thouh I'm not such a big fan of matte finish.
How do you like my manicure?
I just broke my nail again( punishment for not being careful while opening the fridge) . My nails will be a lot shorter in my next post.
I'm just wearing the most beautiful green shade ever made(IMO). Which one do you think it is? Which is your favourite green shade?
Tnx for reading and commenting =)
Kelier Crackle polish in black review
It's time to review the Kelier crackle nail polish(no.3 on the picture below) from Born Pretty store.
I had I 2 problems with this polish, but when I realised what I was doing wrong I got a pretty cool effect on my nails =).
The first problem was, that this polish doesn't work well with dry nail polishes! It just doesn't stick to it and peels right of when dried.
My second problem was , that I applied the crackle polish on a wet nail polish too fast, and the result was that even the base polish cracked. I really didn't like that result.
To solve my last problem I did a little test. I polished my nails with the base and than waited for 2 minutes and then apply crackle polish on the first nail, than I waited 3 minutes and applied crackle polish on the second nails. In the end I compared the results of the cracking effect, and the one I was most satisfied with was the look I got after 6 minutes.
The only thing I had to do is to make a manicure that included 6 minutes of drying time for a base =)
I used gold polis from Beautyline as a base 2 coats.
Here is the look I got:
Daylight |
My favourite crack |
Under my daylight lamp |
I am really impressed by the final look. I have to warn you only about one thing. You should apply a top coat right after the cracking process ended, because if you don't the crackle polish will chip really fast. I took pictures of my manicures 2 hours after I painted my nails, and you can already see, that the polish chipped at my tips.
The polish contains 15ml
The price is 4,52$
you can get it in 8 colors
I just couldn't stop looking at my nails, because I really liked the effect.
How do you like it?
I usually don't like gold color at all, but I'm really in love in this look =)
(this product was sent to me to review from Born Pretty store)
Tropicalia
Today I have another Wet n Wild polish for you. This one is called Tropicalia. I applied 2 coats, it applied nicely.
After one day of wear I decided to add some stamps on it. I used B02 fauxnad plate and Essence: Stamp me black. Here are the results:I just realised how many fauxnad and konad plates I have, but I really seldom use them. I really have to start stamping =)
Do you like the final look? Do you have a lot of konad/fauxnad image plates?
I just made a light box(if I may call it that way), and I'm really happy, because now I can take pictures when the weather is bad or even at night =)
Nail mail=)
On Friday I got a package from Ivana. She sent me a beautiful nail polish from Sally Hansen called Blue it. It is a beautiful blue with blue shimmer. I applied 2 coats. Here are the photos:


No pictures on direct sun, because in Slovenia rained like hell for the last 3 days. Half of Slovenia is literally under water.
I was asking myself how would it look like with black konad, so I had to try it out. I must say I like the final look.

My cuticle is really in a bad shape I would kindly ask you to ignore it.
I'm really sad, because me and my friends are not going to Czech Rep. because of one stupid exam. This trip would be my only vocation this year, now I will be left without any vocations and plenty exams =(.
I just chopped down my nails, so they are super short now. I cant's stop looking at them because of it.

No. 9
I've always been asking myself is zebra black on white or white on black, I decided that it is black on white. I guess that by now you all figured it out, that I am going to show you a zebra print today. You are right, but I think that it is still something different because it is only on one finger. Maybe tomorrow if I'll have time I'll make white stripes on black too, to make sure, that my decision about zebra print being black on white is true.
Here are the pictures:With my favorite oil

I used Essence: Fatal(2 coats). joy white(2 coats), Essence Nail art tip painter heavy black.

I managed to make another exam, so in the worst scenario, I will have 5 exams left for next year. I hope I manage to make tomorrow's exam, but if I fail it won't be the end of the world. Wish me luck=)))).

This is the last post today. Another manicure. Here are the pictures:
Sun

With flash
For this manicure I used Catrice: Big Spender Wanted!. I applied 2 coats, I like the color(pink vith gold shimmer) despite being a little frosty. I made a kind of tribal design with Essence nail art tip painter 01 Heavy black. I'm not satisfied with that manicure.
Here is another picture of Maggie.
have a nice Sunday

I'm back and I'm sick, I have high temperature(38°C+) my throat and my whole body hurts and like that isn't enough I have to struggle with bubbles again. I changed my base coat, I never polish thick layers and always wait until one coat is dry to apply another. I don't shake the bottle eather. Now I blame the heat, because my room is hot in the summer time ( around 27°C), and I hope that I am right, because I don't have the energy to seek for new reasons.
Do you know any other reasons why bubbles appear ?
Anyway here is my 5th nail art attempt, and please forgive me for all the bubbles, they are ruining the look I was trying to make. Also my drawing skills are not the best, that is why this mickey looks like he is crazy.

Here are the things I used:Essence: Ready for action as a base( I used it before and it didn't cause bubbles), Essence: Fatal and Joy white
Here is a bonus picture of a card that I have for back up, in case if I don't have time to make a better one=)
No. 4
It is time for number 4 already, only 6 to go. Today I have something soft, and girly. I don't like it, actually I hate it. I imagined this design, with another polish- soft pink from Essence Cute as hell LE, but it applied literally like hell, that is why I removed it. Because I don't have any other soft pink shades, I had to make myself one, I mixed joy white with Lacura Cyclam, and named the franken Miss piggy. I liked it to the moment that started bubbling. I could remove it and buy another soft pink shade, but I didn't, because I thought, that than again something would go wrong. I am ashamed of publishing this manicure, but sometimes manicure just isn't meant to be perfect.
For the flowers and a butterfly I used S-he 465 and Essence striper Heavy black.
Here are the pictures:


P.S. I just found the cutest kitty abandoned in the bushes, I really don't understand that there are so heartless people in the world to do such thing. She is a bit shy for now, but when she gets more used to us I would post some pictures of Meggie if you would like that. She really is the most beautiful cat I've seen.
