Zoya Tomoko

Još uvek je neizvesno da li će nam i kada stići nove kolekcije Zoya lakova i zbog toga mislim da je red podsetiti se onih boja koje nam jesu dostupne. Do 1. oktobra možete iskoristiti sniženje i kupiti Matte i PixieDust lakove za 551 dinara, odnosno 495 dinara ako su iz klasične linije. Ovo sniženje važi u UltraSun maloprodajnim objektima i na sajtu. Moguće je da će i na sajmu biti nekih popusta ili posebnih ponuda, ali za sada ništa nije tačno određeno.

Our importer has given quite a big discount on Zoya polishes, which is nearing its end now, and I am yet to show you colours I've picked. Since we do not know when and if the new collections will be imported, it would only be in order to review some of the shades that are readily available.

China Glaze Howl You Doin'

China Glaze ove godine za Noć veštica ne izbacuje pravu kolekciju već ponavljaju neke od postojećih boja i spremaju posebne setove, ali uvoz tih setova nije planiran za naše tržište. Zato se danas prisećamo jedne od starijih Halloween kolekcija, Monsters Ball iz 2013. godine. China Glaze Howl You Doin' je do mene neplanirano došao zahvaljujući Jeleni i drago mi je što sam imala priliku da ga probam. Iako je konkretno ovaj lak rasprodat, neke boje su još uvek dostupne u Alexandar Cosmetics-u po ceni od 349 dinara, a po toj ceni ćete moći da ih uzmete i na predstojećem sajmu Dodir Pariza. Od noviteta nas na sajmu očekuju Rebel i Seas and Greetings kolekcije.

There won't be a new collection from China Glaze this Halloween, only re-realeases of some old colours and sets of polishes. That is why we're having a throwback post to one of their older Halloween collections, Monster's Ball from 2013. China Glaze Howl You Doin' came to my possession thanks to Jelena and I am glad that I had a chance to try it.

Matching Manicures - Honour Nails You love

Današnjim manikirom završavamo skup tema iz tridesetjednodnevnog izazova. Od svih manikira koje smo radile tokom izazova treba da odaberemo jedan tuđ i da ga rekreiramo. Nisam sigurna koji stepen sličnosti se očekuje - da li naš treba da bude što približnija kopija ili samo treba da bude inspirisan tuđim, ali sam se iz više razloga odlučila za prvu varijantu.

With today's mani we're bringing to a close round of 31 Day Challenge themes. We have to choose a mani somebody else did during the course of the challenge and recreate it. I am not sure how similar they should be - if we should try to come as close to the original or if we should just look for the inspiration, but for several reasons I opted for the first option.

Harunouta Stamping Plate L008

Trenutno poslednja Harunouta / Spring Song pločica koju imam je pločica za koju verujem da je među popularnijima. Na prvi pogled ženstvena i delikatna, može se podjednako koristiti i za nežne nevestinske manikire, ali i za opake rokerske nokte.

The last Harunouta / Spring Song image plate I have to show is the one I believe is among the more popular ones. At a glance feminine and delicate, it can be used for gentle bridal manis as well as for edgy rocker nails.

Look by Bipa Glitter Lilac

Ne znam kako se desilo da od četiri odlična Look by Bipa teksturca koja mi je Suzana zimus poslala, čak tri nisam pokazala. Tu grešku ispravljam odmah sada odmah. Look by Bipa je robna marka Bipa drogerija, kojih znam da ima u Austriji, Hrvatskoj i Nizozemskoj, verovatno i drugde. Ovi peskasti lakovi dolaze u pakovanju od 7 ml, a cena im je oko € 2.

I don't know how it happened that I haven't shown you three out of four great Look by Bipa textured polishes that Suzana sent me for last winter's holidays. I am going to correct that mistake right now. Look by Bipa is Bipa store house brand. I know they have shops in Austria, Croatia and the Netherlands, probably elsewhere as well. These gritty polishes come in 7 ml bottles and retail for about € 2.

CND Vinylux Serene Green

Kako mi je Vinylux nadlak vremenom postao omiljeni brzosušeći nadlak, tako sam sve više pažnju počela da obraćam i na boje. Brzo mi je za oko zapao ovaj tamno-zeleni lak sa finim šimerom, prvi put predstavljen u sklopu praznične kolekcije za 2013. godinu. Vinylux su prvi hibridni lakovi u svetu, a i kod nas, i njihov sistem se sastoji iz stotinak boja lakova i brzosušećeg nadlaka. Kod nas su dostupni u Unitechu, i u prodavnicama i preko sajta, a cena im je 1117 dinara za 15 ml proizvoda.

As Vinylux top coat became my favourite quick-dry top coat with time, I have started to pay more attention to their colours as well. This dark-green polish with shimmer, first released as part of Charmed collection for holidays 2013, was fast to catch my eye. Vinylux is the original hybrid nail polish and the system consists of over a hundred colours and top coat.

Matching Manicures - Inspired by a Tutorial

Danas inspiraciju tražimo na najboljem mestu - među uputstvima, najradije onima za neki konkretan nail art. Da li to znači da sam tražila inspiraciju i među instrukcijama za nešto drugo? Naravno. Ipak sam se odlučila da ne komplikujem sebi zadatak previše i ipak sam se odlučila za sasvim normalan nail art, ali kakav do sada nisam radila, što je za mene donekle i smisao ovih nedeljnih manikira.

Today we are looking for inspiration among tutorial, preferably nail art tutorials. Does that mean that I have looked form mine among some other instructions? Naturally. However, I decided not to overcomplicate this task so I opted for a normal nail art, albeit the one I haven't tried before, which in a way is the point of these weekly manis.

Giveaway

Pošto sam okasnila da proletos obeležim četvrtu godišnjicu blogovanja, sada pravim zakasnelo slavlje. To znači da sam vam spremila malu nagradnu igru. Hvala svima vama koji ste sve ove godine sa mnom. Novopridošli, dobro došli.

This spring I was late to mark my fourth blogaversary, I am making a belated celebration. That means that I have prepared a little giveaway. Thank you all who have been with me all these years. Newly arrived ones, you are most welcome.

Mont Bleu Glass Files

Mont Bleu je češki proizvođač stakla, poznat po svojim turpijama visokog kvaliteta. Već nekoliko godina koristim jednu njihovu turpiju, a sada mi je zadovoljstvo da vam predstavim još nekoliko njihovih proizvoda za nokte. Osim turpija, Mont Bleu u ponudi ima i nakit, ogledalca, četke za kosu i druge korisne sitnice, koje možete kupiti komadno preko njihovog sajta Design Glassware ili Amazon prodavnice, a u veleprodaji na sajtu Czech Glass Nail Files.

Mont Bleu is a Czech glass manufacturer, well known for its high quality nail files. I've been using one of their files for several years now, and it is my pleasure now to show you some of their other nail products as well. Mont Bleu also offers jewellery, compacts, hair brushes and other useful trinkets that you can buy retail from Design Glassware or their Amazon store, and wholesale from Czech Glass Nail Files.

Literary Lacquers Shift of Fate

Kako jedan knjiški moljac lakoholičar može da odoli lakovima inspirisanim književnim delima? Teško. Ili nemoguće, kako se pokazalo ovom prilikom kada mi se ukazala mogućnost da uzmem neki od Literary Lacquers lakova i ja sam iz taka odabrala pet. Literary Lacquers lakovi su ručno pravljeni, a mogu se nabaviti u autorkinoj Etsy radnji. Cene variraju od laka do laka. Ovaj je 12 $, a pakovanje je od 15 ml.

How can a bookworm polishaholic resist nail polishes inspired by literature? Hardly. Or impossible, as it turned out this time when I had the opportunity to get my hands on some of Literary Lacquers and I took five of them at once. Literary Lacquers are made by hand and can be purchased from creator's Etsy store. Prices vary from polish to polish. This one retails for $12 and comes in 15 ml bottle.

Matching Manicures - Inspired by Supernatural

Posle letnje pauze, vraćaju se i Usklađeni manikiri. Nastavljamo gde smo stali sa temama za Izazov 31 dana, što znači da je na redu manikir inspirisan natprirodnim. Pošto sam i dalje prilično nevešta u crtanju, morala sam da se ograničim na ono što mogu da izaberem sa pločica koje imam i brzo sam našla motive koji mi se sviđaju. Iako sam zamišlju zadovoljna, izvedbom baš i nisam, a u nastavku možete pročitati zašto.

Matching Manicures are returning after summer break. We're picking up from where we'd stopped with 31 Day Challenge themes, which means that this week it is turn to be inspired by supernatural. Since I am still bad at drawing, I had to limit myself to motifs I could find on my stamping plates and I was actually quick to find suitable images. However, even though I am happy with my particular idea, I am not as pleased with how it turned out. You can read why after page break.

Essence I ♥ Trends lakovi

Kroz Essence ponudu lakova svake godine prođu desetine boja. Neke od njih se zadrže nekoliko sezona, druge svega par meseci. Među tim lakovima koji se često menjaju se nalaze lakovi iz I ♥ Trends linije. I same potkolekcije u sklopu ove linije se često menjaju, a pojedinačni lakovi se retko zadrže u prodaji duže od jedne sezone. Lakovi koje danas predstavljam su iz The Darks i The Metals podlinija. The Darks segment je povučen iz prodaje, a The Metals je još uvek aktuelan, u nešto izmenjenom sastavu. Nijedan od ova četiri laka nije više dostupan, mada se koji zaostali primerak Chrome Paradise možda još uvek može naći po sniženoj ceni u ponekom Liliju.

Each year dozens of polishes go through Essence range. Some of them stay for several seasons, while some ore withdrawn after only several months. Among those that are changed often are polishes from I ♥ Trends line. This line's sub-collections are also changed very often and individual polishes rarely stay in it for more than one season. Polishes I am showing today come form The Darks and The Metals sub-sections. The Darks is no longer available and The Metals is still available, albeit in somewhat changed line-up.

Cuccio Higher Grounds

Iako leti više volim da nosim hladnije tonove na noktima, ne izbegavam tople boje ako lak ima efekat koji najbolje izgleda na suncu. Ovaj Cuccio je upravo od takvih. Cuccio lakovi imaju 13 ml, koštaju 750 dinara i mogu se nabaviti u salonima koji koriste ovaj brend, a o detaljima se možete raspitati kod uvoznika Silver Line doo.

Although during summer I prefer cooler shades on my nails, I don't shy away from warmer tones it the polish has finish that looks best in sunshine. This Cuccio is one such polish. Cuccio polishes come in 13 ml bottles and are available at salons and salon supply stores.

Zoya Yves

Poslednji od tri laka iz Zoya Matte Velvet kolekcije za jesen 2015. godine koji imam je ultramarin Zoya Yves. Ova kolekcija još uvek nije stigla kod nas i ne zna se ni da li će biti uvezena. Druge Zoje su do kraja meseca u Ultra Sunu na velikom sniženju i možete ih kupiti za 495 dinara (klasični lakovi), odnosno za 551 dinara (Pixie Dust, Ultra Pixie i Matte Velvet). Zoya lakovi su veganski i 5-free.

The last of three Zoya Matte Velvet polishes from winter 2015. collection I have is the ultramarine Zoya Yves. Zoya polishes are vegan and 5-free.

Born Pretty BP-X09 Stamping Plate

Danas vam predstavljam još jednu od novih kvadratnih Born Pretty pločica i jedan od odličnih Born Pretty pečatnih lakova.

Noviteti u avgustu

Koliko sam bila dobra u julu i trudila se da ne kupujem lakove, toliko sam sve nadoknadila u avgustu. I više. Prvo su mi se omakli neki drogerijski noviteti - Catrice nadlak, Essence lak koji povlače i Essie lak iz poslednje kolekcije koja nam je stigla. Potom sam ugrabila trenutak da odem do Ultra Sun-a i uzmem nekoliko Zoya dok traje sniženje. Nisam uspela da nađem sve sa spiska jer su neke boje rasprodate, ali tri laka mislim da su dovoljno dobar ulov. Uzela sam Kalistu, Carter i Tomoko. Onda je doleteo paketić koji sam željno iščekivala - Mont Bleu staklene turpije, koje jedva čekam da vam detaljno prikažem. Sa predstavljanja OPI noviteta sam ponela set mini lakova iz Washington DC kolekcije i njih ću se potruditi da slikam što pre. Za kraj imam gomilu ILNP i Literary Lacquers lakova koje sam kupila na jednoj blogorasprodaji. Za rođendan nisam mogla da kupim ovakve lakove jer mi je kartica bila odbijena, a posle ovakve kupovine mislim da ću preskočiti i božićne rasprodaje indie lakova.

Češka je poznata po granatu i staklu, a češke staklene turpije su najbolje koje sam probala. Ovo su @montbleueu turpije o kojima ćete uskoro moći da čitate. #nailmail #instanail #ignails #nailgram #nailsofinstagram #polishaholic #cajkinekandze #nailsr #nailrs #nailpolishaddict #nailpromote #nailstagram #nailblog #nails #nailsgram #nailpictures #nailfile #glassnailfile #crystalnailfiles #lakoholicarke #newin #montbleu

As much as I was a good girl in July and did my best not to buy new polishes, in August I let myself loose. First I got several drugstore items - a Catrice top coat, a discontinued Essence polish and an Essie from the last collection that arrived in Serbia. After that I managed to find a moment to go to Ultra Sun and get some Zoyas while they are still on sale. I didn't get all polishes I wanted (some of them were sold out), but I think that Kalista, Carter and TOmoko make quite a nice catch. Then an eagerly awaited parcel reached me - the one with Mont Bleu glass files, which I can't wait to show you in detail. I picked up a set of mini OPIs from Washington DC collection, and I'll try to swatch them as soon as possible. And for the end I have a pile of ILNP and Literary Lacquers polishes I managed to snag a ta blog sale. I couldn't buy such polishes for my birthday because my card has been rejected and considering this amount of polish, I think I shall give Christmas sales a miss.
