Maybelline Dr. Rescue SOS Balm Nail + Cuticle

Jelena je prošlog meseca uspela da mi ulovi Maybelline Dr. Rescue stik za negu noktiju i zanoktica i sada sam spremna da sa vama podelim utiske o njemu.

Last month Jelena managed to get me Maybelline Dr. Rescue stick for nail and cuticle care and now I am ready to share my thoughts about it with you.

Catrice Plum Me Up Scotty

Marta 2014. godine, Catrice je ponudio dvadesetčetvorodelnu ograničenu kolekciju pod imenom Luxury Lacquers, koja je bila podeljena u četiri celine - Million Brilliance, Sand’sation, Chameleon (koju sam celu predstavila na blogu) i Holomania. Holomania se, začudo, zaista sastojala od holo lakova i to linearnih (Cosnova ima užasan običaj da duo- i multihromatske lakove naziva hologramskim). Imala sam sreću da jedan od njih dobijem u nagradnoj igri na Parokeets blogu, a nedavno sam se konačno nakanila i da ga namažem.

In March 2014. Catrice placed on market a twenty-four-piece limited edition Luxury Lacquers collection, that was split into four parts - Million Brilliance, Sand’sation, Chameleon (I have done posts on entire line) and Holomania. Surprisingly, Holomania does consist of holo polishes and linear ones at that (Cosnova is infamous for naming duo- and multichromatic polishes holographic). I was fortunate to win one of these at one of Parokeets' giveaways, and recently I finally gave it a whirl.

Matching Manicures - cvetni

Ove nedelje nam je tema usklađenog manikira ponovo cveće. Prošlog puta sam radila pečatirane cvetove, a ovog puta sam se, iznenađujuće, opredelila za istu tehniku. :D

This week's matching manicures theme is flowers, again. Last time I stamped a floral design and this time I opted, surprisingly, for the same approach. :D

MoYou Nails 73

Juče sam morala da uzmem dan odmora, ali zato danas možete da pročitate nešto o MoYou Nails 73 pločici za pečatiranje.

Yesterday I had to take a day off, but today you can read a bit about MoYou Nails 73 stamping plate.

p2 Sand Style 080 Lovely

Pre par nedelja je Žana pisala o Rimmel Space Dust Moon Walking i podsetila me je na sličan lak koji mi je Luchessa poslala pre skoro dve godine - p2 Sand Style 080 Lovely.

A couple of weeks ago Žana did a post about Rimmel Space Dust Moon Walking and reminded me of a similar polish Luchessa had sent me nearly two years ago - p2 Sand Style 080 Lovely.

Zoya Dovima

Zoya je 2009. godine ponudila svoju Matte Velvet kolekciju, koja je bila posebna, ograničena kolekcija i od tada je jednom dopunjena, a u par navrata povlačena i parcijalno vraćana u prodaju. U prvoj kolekciji su se našle Dovima, Loredana i Posh, a Veruschka, Savita i Harlow su predstavljale dopunu. Zimus je svih šest ovih lakova nakratko vraćeno u proizvodnju, a ja sam tu priliku iskoristila da uzmem Dovimu i Loredanu. Iako više nisu u ponudi, kod nas se ovi lakovi još uvek mogu nabaviti u Ultra Sun-u po ceni od 950 dinara.

In 2009. Zoya placed on market their limited edition Matte Velvet collection, which has since had one addition and several retirements and partial reissues. The original collection consisted of Dovima, Loredana and Posh, with Veruschka, Savita and Harlow added later. Last winter the entire collection was reissued for a short time only and I took that opportunity to get Dovima and Loredana.

Matching Manicures - francuski manikir

Ura! Ove nedelje za temu imamo francuski manikir. Sreća, sreća, radost, uživancija! Ne baš. Zapravo uopšte ne. Zaista nisam ljubitelj frenča (više o tome možete pročitati ovde), ali na svu sreću znam kako da ovu dosadnu temu učinim malo zabavnijom.

Hurrah! This week's theme is French manicure. Happy, happy, joy, joy! Not quite. Actually not at all. I am not a fan of French manicure (you can read more about it here), but fortunately I know how to make even this boring theme a bit more interesting and edgy.

Born Pretty BP-L007

Prošle nedelje sam pokazala jedan damastni manikir, a sada predstavljam Born Pretty Store pločicu koja sadrži dosta takvih starinskih, tekstilnih i heraldičkih motiva.

https://www.bornprettystore.com/vintage-damask-nail-stamp-template-image-plate-born-pretty-l007-65cm-p-17925.html

Last week I showed you a damask mani and now I am presenting you a Born Pretty Store stamping plate that has many such vintage, heraldic and textile patterns.

MoYou Nails 70

Pre nego što kalendar bude rekao da je počela jesen, volela bih da vam pokažem jednu pomorsku pločicu za pečatiranje - MoYou Nails 70.

Before autumn officially starts, I'd like to show you one nautical stamping plate - MoYou Nails 70.

Lynnderella Ruby Passion

Kada nadlak pokvari lak, šljokičavi toper može brzo da popravi stvar. Većinu takvih topera koje sam vremenom nakupila sam u proteklih par godina i razdelila, ali u julu sam imala sreću da dobijem jedan Lynnderella toper koji se pokazao savršenim za ovu situaciju. Lynnderella lakove možete nabaviti direktno od same Lynn preko njene StoreEnvy prodavnice ili možete okušati sreću u nagradnoj igri koju svake nedelje organizuje na Facebook stranici.

When a top coat messes up your polish, a glittery topper can salvage the mani. In the last couple of years I have passed on most of glitter toppers from my collection, but I got one Lynnderella topper this July and it turned out to be the perfect choice for this situation. You can get Lynnderella polishes from Lynn via her StoreEnvy shop or you can enter weekly giveaway on her Facebook page.

OPI You're So Vain-Illa

Iako nisam ljubitelj svetlih i nežnih boja, povremeno me i ti tonovi privuku. OPI You're So Vain-Illa je jedan od takvih lakova i do sada ste imali priliku da ga nekoliko puta vidite na blogu (ovde, ovde i ovde), a sada dobija i svoje zasebno predstavljanje. OPI lakove možete kupiti u apotekama, Sefori i Nail Line-u, a u Prima apotekama svakog 15. u mesecu ih možete kupiti sa 15% popusta.

Even though I am not a fan of light and soft shades, sometimes even I get drawn to such tones. OPI You're So Vain-Illa is one such polish and so far you've seen it on my blog in several manis (here, here and here), and it is now getting a blopost of its own.

Damastni manikir

Danas blogodrugarice za nedeljnu temu rade baršunasti manikir, a kako ja ne podnosim pliš za nokte odlučila sam da predstavim drugu tkaninu na noktima i to u gotik maniru.

Fellow bloggers are doing velvet manicures for this week's theme, but since I hate flocking powder I decided to show you a different fabric on my nails and do it in goth fashion.

Born Pretty 09 i BP-09

Pre nego što mi stignu nove Born Pretty Store pločice, volela bih da pokažem one koje mi već mesecima stoje neisprobane ili makar nepredstavljene. Među njima prednjači ovaj par BPS pločica iz prve kolekcije - originalna Born Pretty 09 i njena unapređena verzija BP-09.

https://www.bornprettystore.com/patterns-nail-stamp-template-image-plate-born-pretty-bp09-p-16856.html

Before new Born Pretty Store stamping plates arrive I want to show you those that I've had for months and that I still haven't either used or reviewed. Foremost this pair of image plates from the first BPS collection - the original Born Pretty Store 09 and its improved counterpart BP-09.

MoYou Nails 232

Posle kratke pauze i razmišljanja kako da radim francuski manikir na ovako kratkim noktima, nastavljam predstavljanje MoYou Nails pločica upravo jednom koja ima motive za frenč.

After a short break and contemplating how to do French mani on my nubbins, I continue reviewing MoYou Nails image plates with one that has only French tips.

IBD Air Dry Topcoat

Poslednjih dana se u Srbiji sve češće traže preporuke za dobar brzosušeći nadlak. U to ime vam predstavljam IBD Air Dry nadlak. Može se nabaviti u Alexandar Cosmetics-u po redovnoj ceni od 360 dinara za bočicu od 14 ml, ali do 20. decembra je na sniženju i može se preko sajta nabaviti za 280 dinara.

These past days there has been an increase in inquiries about good fast-drying top coats here in Serbia. That is why I want to present IBD Air Dry top coat to you.

Zoya Vespa

Primetila sam da dugo nisam prikazala neki Zoya lak, a nekolicina mi stoji neisprobana već mesecima. Kada sam tek skratila nokte, držala sam se svetlijih boja kako bih manje skretala pažnju na novu dužinu i oblik. Jedan od lakova koje sam tada nosila bio je Zoya PixieDust u nijansi Vespa. Zoya lakovi ne sadrže toluen, dibutil ftalat, formalin, formalinski rezin, kamfor, sastojke životinjskog porekla i ne testiraju se na životinjama. Pixie Dust lakovi koštaju 950 dinara, a dolaze u bočicama od 15 ml. Možete ih nabaviti u Ultra Sun-u, bilo uživo, bilo preko interneta, kao i kod njihovih distributera.

I have noticed that it's been quite awhile since I last did a post about a Zoya nail polish, and I have several among my untrieds. When I first shortened my nails I kept to lighter colours in order not to draw attention to my new length and shape. One of those polishes was Zoya PixieDust Vespa. Zoya polishes come in 15 ml bottles. They don't contain toluene, camphor, formaldehyde, formaldehyde resin, dibutyl phthalate (DBP) and animal products and are not tested on animals.

Matching Manicures - Outline

Ovonedeljnu temu zamalo da preskočim. Ovih dana imam dosta drugih obaveza, a i nešto nisam raspoložena za mazanje noktiju, ali ipak sam izvela nešto što se nadam da će vam se svideti.

I almost missed this week's theme. I've had so many other duties these days and I also haven't been in mood for painting nails. However, I did managed to come up with something that I hope you'll like.

Aura Amazingly Resistant - utisci i poređenja

U velikom i hrabrom potezu, Aura je tri od četiri linije svojih postojećih lakova za nokte, kao i sve stare baze i nadlakove, povukla iz proizvodnje i zamenila ih novom kolekcijom. Sve ove nove proizvode sam vam ove nedelje pokazala, a danas sumiramo utiske i volela bih da čujem šta vi mislite na ovu temu. Slike pokazuju poređenja koja sam spominjala u samim člancima o lakovima.

In a big and brave move, Aura has discontinued three of four of their nail polish lines, as well as all older base and top coats and substituted them for new collection. I have shown you all these new products this week. Today we summarise impressions and I'd love to hear your thoughts on this subject. Photos are showing comparisons I have mentioned in articles on polishes.

Aura baza i nadlakovi

Poslednji novitet u Aurinoj ponudi proizvoda za nokte su oni namenjeni za početak i završetak manikira. Do sada je postojao par Aurinih baza, Jelly nadlak i matirajući toper. Zamenjeni su jednom bazom, parom nadlakova i matirajućim toperom. Svi proizvodi su spakovani u iste bočice kao i Amazingly Resistant lakovi, imaju 11 ml i koštaju 309 dinara.

The last piece of new Aura nail polish collection I get to show you are the products that a mani starts and ends with. Up until now Aura has had a couple of base coats Jelly top coat and Matte top coat. They've been substituted for a base coat, a couple of clear top coats and a matte top coat. They come in the same 11 ml bottles as Amazingly Resistant polishes.

Aura Amazingly Resistant - crveni lakovi

Danas završavam predstavljanje lakova u boji iz Aurine Amazingly Resistant kolekcije. Današnji segment je, rekla bih, najujednačeniji i najviše po mom ukusu i čine ga pre svega crveni lakovi. Svi lakovi imaju 11 ml i koštaju 309 dinara. Aura lakovi su 5-free.

Today I am bringing showcasing of Aura Amazingly Resistant collection to a close. The segment I have set for today it the most coherent and the most to my taste as it consists mostly of red polishes. All polishes come in 11ml bottles and they are 5-free.

Aura Amazingly Resistant - pink i ljubičasti lakovi

Danas nastavljam predstavljanje Aura Amazingly Resistant lakova. Na redu su roze i ljubičaste nijanse, kojih u ovoj liniji ima i najviše. Svi lakovi imaju 11 ml i koštaju 309 dinara. Četkica im je pljosnata, ravno sečena i dobro raspoređuje lak.

Today I am continuing to show you new Aura Amazingly Resistant polishes. This time I am focusing on pinks and purples, which are the most abundant colours in this collection. All polishes come in 11 ml bottles. They rave flat straight-cut brush and it spreads polish quite nicely.

Aura Amazingly Resistant - neutralni lakovi

Kao što sam u mesečnom pregledu obećala, danas počinjem predstavljanje nove linije Aura lakova. Zove se Amazingly Resistant i sastoji se od dvadest četiri laka u boji, a tu su i nova baza i tri nadlaka. Lakovi imaju 11 ml i koštaju 309 dinara. Paleta boja je prilično klasična. Na prvi pogled je prilično bezbedna, skoro dosadna, ali treba imati u vidu da ona stupa na mesto tri stare linije lakova te, iako mi je žao što nema nekih interesantnijih nijansi, mislim da je prirodno što je proizvođač prvo išao na to da zameni upravo klasične boje. Iskreno se nadam da će vremenom ovu kolekciju obogatiti i malo neobičnijim bojama i drugim finišima. Zbog obima cele kolekcije, predstavljanje ću razbiti na četiri članka - jedan sa neutralnim bojama, jedan sa ružičastim bojama i jedan posvećen crvenim lakovima, kao i jedan o bazi i nadlakovima. Počinjem od neutralnih tonova.

As I've mentioned in my monthly overview, today I shall start to show you the new Aura nail polish line. It is called Amazingly Resistant and it consists of twenty four coloured polish and there are also tree new top coats and a base coat. Polishes come in 11 ml bottles. The initial colour palette is quite classic. At a glance, it is rather safe, almost boring, but it is replacing three older lines of polish so, while I am disappointed that there are no more interesting colours here, I understand why the manufacturer decided to go this way and I can only hope that at some later point they will add more unusual colours and different finishes. Because of the size of this collection I shall divide it into four blogposts - one about neutrals, one about pinks, one about reds and one about base and top coats. I am starting with neutrals.
