MoYou Nails Clear Stamper

Kako su se pojavili prvi prozirni pečati, tako sve više proizvođača opreme za nail art plasira na tržište svoje verzije. Među njima je i MoYou Nails, čiji prozirni pečat danas predstavljam. Providni pečati su verovatno najkorisnija alatka za pečatiranje koju trenutno imamo te mi je drago što postoji i velik izbor ovih pečata.

Ever since the first clear stampers hit the market, more and more nail art tools manufacturers are coming up with their own versions. Among them is MoYou Nails, whose clear stamper I am showing you today. Clear stampers are probably the most useful stamping tool we have at the moment, so I am glad that there is such a large selection.

Golden Rose Ice Chic 49

Poslednjih godina slabo kupujem Golden Rose lakove jer, iako konstantno izbacuju nove kolekcije, imam utisak da samo prepakuju iste boje u drastično različite bočice (začudo, nikada im ne pada na pamet da lakovima daju čestita imena). No, među Ice Chic lakovima ima nekoliko boja koje mi se sviđaju, a jedna me je toliko privukla da sam je zapravo i uzela. Ice Chic lakovi su spakovani u četvrtaste bočice zapremine 10,5 ml, a cena im je oko 120 dinara.

I haven't been buying Golden Rose polishes because, even though they keep placing new collections on the market, I am under the impression that they are only repackaging old colours in drastically different bottles (all the while failing to give them proper names). However, I did find several colours I like among Ice Chic polishes and I even got one of them. Ice Chic polishes come in 10.5 ml cube bottles and retail for about €1.

China Glaze We Got The Beet

Taman pred Sajam, stigao mi je paketić iz Alexandar Cosmetics sa par NYX proizvoda za usne i China Glaze lakom iz letnje kolekcije. Ovu kolekciju sam planirala da preskočim pa mi je drago što mi se ukazala prilika da ipak probam nekog njenog predstavnika. China Glaze lakovi imaju 14 ml, koštaju 498 dinara i mogu se nabaviti u Alexandar Cosmetics ikod njihovih distributera.

Right before Cosmetics expo, I received a package from Alexandar Cosmetics containing a couple of NYX lip products and a China Glaze polish from summer collection. I meant to skip this collection, so I am happy that I had a chance to try at least one polish from it.

Matching Manicures - Delicate Print

Današnja tema za usklađene manikire je jedna od onih koje se mogu tumačiti na više načina. Moja prva pomisao je bila porcelan, a odmah potom mi je na pamet pala čipka. No ni najfinija čipka se ne može porediti sa čipkom koju stvara priroda te sam na kraju završila sa paučinom na noktima.

Today's matching manicures theme is one of those that can be interpreted in so many ways. My first thought was fine china, but immediately afterwards I thought abut lace. However, not even the finest lace can compare to the lace created in nature so I ended up with cobwebs n my nails.

Matching Manicures - Flowers

Hvatam poslednji voz da učestvujem u ovonedeljnom usklađenom manikiru - za sutra imamo novu temu i potrudiću se da spremim taj manikir na vreme. Do tada možete baciti pogled na moju interpretaciju cvetne teme.

I am taking the last chance to take part in this week's matching manicures - we have another theme for tomorrow and I will do my best to prepare that mani in time. Until then you can take a look at my interpretation of floral theme.

Cuccio Mint Condition

Kako to često biva, poslednjih dana mi se dešavao život pa nisam imala priliku da vam ovaj veseli mint lak, koji i dalje nosim na noktima, pokažem kada sam to planirala. No nije avionski let u pitanju pa verujem da vam neće smetati što članak kasni koji dan. Cuccio lakovi imaju 13 ml, koštaju 550 dinara i mogu se nabaviti u salonima koji koriste ovaj brend, a o detaljima se možete raspitati kod uvoznika Silver Line doo.

As it happens so often, life has been getting in my was these past several days so I didn't get a chance to write about this cheery mint polish, which I am still wearing, when I intended to. Fortunately, this is not a scheduled flight, so I trust that you won't mind that this post is a couple of day late. Cuccio polishes come in 13 ml bottles and are available at salons and salon supply stores.

Layla Hologram Effects Coffee Love

Prošlo je dosta vremena otkad sam nosila neki Layla lak, a više od godinu dana otkad sam kupila poslednji. Znatno pre toga sam preko Krpica uzela (još) jedan Layla holos i njega danas pokazujem kao svojevrsni "da li je promašaj ili nije" osvrt na ovaj tip holosa. Layla Hologram Effect lakovi sadrže 10 ml i koštaju 11,9 €. Dostupni su samo u Italiji, ali se mogu naručiti sa Layla Cosmetics sajta, a i neke druge online prodavnice drže Layla proizvode.

It has been awhile since I have last worn a Layla polish and over a year since I've bought the last one. This Layla Holo polish is the one I have bought prior to that and now I am showing it as a sort of "fail or not" glance over this sort of holo polishes. Layla Hologram Effect polishes come in 10 ml bottles and retail for 11.9 €. They are only available in Italy as far as I know, but can be ordered from Layla Cosmetics website and some e-tailers carry them as well.

CND Vinylux Nordic Lights

Sigurno imate neke ljude koji vam prosto ulepšaju dan. Ne mislim na porodicu i bliske prijatelje, već na poznanike, možda povremene poslovne saradnike koji, kad god ih vidite, učine da se osećate bolje, veselije. U mom slučaju je to Verica iz Unitech-a, brend menadžer za CND, koja me svaki put na sajmu dočeka širokim osmehom i paketićem pažljivo odabranih CND proizvoda. Ovog puta se u njemu našao i lak iz prazične kolekcije koji sam već mesecima merkala. Vinylux lakovi se mogu nabaviti u Unitech-u po ceni od 1034 dinara, koliko košta i nadlak.

I am sure you have some people that just make your days better. I don't mean family or close friends, but acquaintances, maybe occasional business associates that make you feel better, more cheerful whenever you meet. In my case that is Verica, brand manager for CND, who always greets me with a smile and a selection of CND products on expos. This time in her CND package there was a polish from holiday collection that I've been planning to get for months.

Moyra Holographic 252 Infinity

Pošto sam donela odluku da ne čekam posebne situacije da bih nosila neke posebnije lakove, svaki lep dan koristim da nosim holose. Najnovija dva u mojoj kolekciji su od mađarskog proizvođača Moyra, a naručila sam ih iz Nail Line-a. Iako oni u ponudi imaju celu Moyra Holographic kolekciju (šest boja), ove kolekcije nema na sajtu. Ja sam ih naručila preko mejla (odgovaraju u roku od sat vremena), a može se naručiti i telefonom. Cena lakova je 295 dinara, a pakovanje je od 12 ml.

Since I made a decision no to wait for special occasions to wear more special polishes, I use every nice day to wear holo polishes. The newest two in my collection are by Hungarian company Moyra. I ordered them online from Serbian distributor Nail Line and they are internationally available through Moyra Shop, although all but one seem to be out of stock at the moment.

Matching Manicures - Animal Print

Današnja tema su životinjski motivi i ja sam imala blistavu ideju da umesto klasične šare životinjskog krzna ili kože uradim celu zverku i to mitsku. No najblistavije ideje su često takve samo dok su na nivou ideje i plašim se da je ovom prilikom realizacija daleko od zamisli.

This week's theme is animal print and I had a great idea not to just put animal fur or skin pattern on my nails, but to do entire animal and a mythical one at that. However, the brightest ideas are often such only as thoughts and I am sorry to say that this was one such case.

27. Sajam kozmetike Dodir Pariza

Danas i sutra se od 10 do 20 časova u Hali 2 beogradskog Sajma održava 27. Sajam kozmetike Dodir Pariza. Kao što smo se već navikli, većina izlagača koji nude program za nokte ima pre svega proizvode namenjene profesionalcima ili makar stvari koje zahtevaju sušenje u lampi, ali i mi zaljubljenici u klasične lakove možemo naći dosta toga za sebe, a šta je privuklo moju pažnju možete videti u nastavku teksta.

OPI Center of the You-Niverse

Sutra i prekosutra se održava sajam kozmetike, za koji očekujemo da nam stignu nove kolekcije OPI lakova, a dok se ne nađu u prodaji predstavljam vam jedan lak iz poslednje kolekcije koju je Primax uvezao. OPI lakovi imaju 15 ml i koštaju 1300 dinara u apotekama, ali se pojedine nijanse mogu naći upola cene. Na sajmu će se neke boje naći u čuvenoj korpici, a ostale će se sigurno prodavati sa sajamskim popustom.

During this weekend a cosmetics expo will be held in Belgrade and we expect new OPI collections to arrive, but until they hit the shelves I am going to show you a polish from the last collection that Primax has imported. OPI polishes come in 15 ml bottles and in Serbia they retail for about €10, but some shades can be found at half the price.

Cuccio Pomegranate Nail Strengthener, Prince I've Been Gone, 7 Second Reactive Top Coat

Mogli ste videti na mom Instagramu (@cajkinekandze) i u mesečnom pregledu da sam pre par nedelja što dobila što kupila dosta Cuccio proizvoda za nokte. Iako je Cuccio pre svega brend za profesionalnu upotrebu, na Sajmu će svako moći da kupi ove (i sve druge) proizvode na štandu Silver Line doo. Redovna cena baze i lakova je 550 dinara, a 7 Second Reactive Top Coat je 900 dinara, ali na Sajmu možemo očekivati promotivne cene i specijalne ponude.

You could see on my Instagramu (@cajkinekandze) and monthly overview that I have gotten and bought quite a few Cuccio nail products. Even though Cuccio is brand for professional use, all these goodies will be available to everyone at the upcoming Cosmetics Expo.

Zoya Amal

Iako nam za predstojeći sajam neće stići nove Zoya kolekcije, to ne znači da ne treba u susret sajmu da pišem o novim bojama (u nadi da ću ih prizvati), a biće mi drago da ovu konkretno uporedim i sa jednom od starijih boja, koja se nalazi u ponudi u Ultra Sun-u. Pošto je reč o mat lakvima, njihova cena je 950 dinara, a na sajmu ćete moći da ih nabavite sa popustom od 10%.

Even though new collections of Zoya polishes won't arrive for the upcoming cosmetics expo, that is not reason for me not to write about some of them in expectation of the expo (and in hope that they'll come soon). It is my pleasure to show you one of new Matte Velvet polishes.

Matching Manicures - Stripes

Posle tačkica na red su došle pruge. Ja sam naravno nevešta sa crtačima i teško mi je da izvučem ravnu liniju i uz pomoć lenjira, a zbog renoviranja koje i dalje traje nisam mogla da dođem do tračica, izabrala sam tehniku u kojoj se dobro snalazim - pečatiranje.

Stripes come after dots. I am not comfortable with stripers because I can't draw a straight line even against a ruler and because of ongoing renovations I couldn't reach my striping tapes, I opted for a technique I am doing well at - stamping.

Martovski noviteti

Šta je sve ovaj mart doneo u moju kolekciju? Dosta toga, a dobar deo je bio neplaniran i neočekivan. Pre svega je tu cela Aura New in Town kolekcija. Iako sam planirala da uzmem samo istoimeni lak, Aura je odlučila da su mi potrebna sva tri. Dva Flormar laka su mi privukla pažnju, što se dugo nije desilo, a kako su u DMu tada bili na sniženju i prodavali su se za svega 99 dinara, uzela sam oba. Potom sam na lakoholičarskom druženju dobila preuranjeni rođendanski poklon od Jelene, koji su između ostalog činile i dve kreme za ruke (Olival mi se svidela na prvo mazanje), a kako je Jeca zapamtila da mi je Essence Cookies & Cream krema odgovarala, donela mi je i nju. Pošto mi to izgleda nije bilo dovoljno krema za ruke, uzela sam i Essence Winter Wonderful kremu, kao i novi Alverde tretman za nokte. U susret Sajmu sam dobila neke Cuccio lakove, kao i novi hibridni nadlak, a kupila sam i Cuccio kiretu za zanoktice, koja zaista pomaže da ih temeljno uklonim. I za kraj imam novi brend u kolekciji. U poslednje vreme na stranim blogovima sve češće viđam Moyra pločice za pečatiranje i prijatno sam se iznenadila kada sam videla da ih ima u NailLine-u. Uz njih sam naručila i par Moyra prizmatičnih lakova. Što se poručivanja iz NL-a tiče, oni nemaju sve proizvode na sajtu pa je moguće da nećete celu porudžbinu moći da završite preko sajta. No na mejlove ažurno odgovaraju, a možete ih pozvati i telefonom.

What new items have landed in my collection? There are quite a few of them, and most of them were unplanned and unexpected. Firstly, there's the entire Aura New in Town collection. Even though I planned to get only the eponymous polish, Aura decided that I need all three polishes. Two Flormar polishes caught my attention, which hasn't happened for a while so I took them home with me. Then we had a polishaholics' day out and Jelena gave an early birthday present, which contained among other things two hand creams and she also remembered that I liked Essence Cookies & Cream hand cream so she passed hers to me. Since this was obviously not enough hand creams, I bought Essence Winter Wonderful cream, as well as new Alverde nail treatment. Cosmetics expo is nearing and that is why I got some Cuccio nail polishes, as well as new hybrid top coat. I also bought a Cuccio cuticle curette, which really helps me to remove cuticles thoroughly. And as a cherry on top, I have introduced a new brand to my collection. Moyra stamping plates are now available in Serbia and I took the opportunity to also buy a couple of Moyra prismatic polishes.
