Essence I ♥ Trends The Metals Rebel at Heart


Sve ređe kupujem Essence lakove, a i kada ih uzmem obično ih koristim za nail art te im red za predstavljanje neretko dođe kada ih već nema u prodaji. Ovog puta nije tako. Otkad se letos/jesenas pojavio, ovaj I ♥ Trends lakić mi je privlačio pažnju. Napokon sam poklekla i uzela ga. Cena mu je 239 dinara i još uvek se može naći u Lilly i DM drogerijama.


I seldom by Essence polishes these days, and when I do, I use them for nail art so by the time they get their blogpost they are often sold out or discontinued. Not this time. I've been drawn to this I ♥ Trends polish since it had arrived in our stores this summer/autumn. I finally caved in and got it. It should still be available at drugstores that have even a single Essence counter.

Matching Manicures - Match Your Outfit


Danas manikire usklađujemo sa odevnom kombinacijom. Nešto nisam danas raspoložena da nosim crno niti crveno (moje glavne boje), i na GamesCon danas idem u jednostavnoj kombinaciji ljubičaste pletene majice i plavih farmerki. Otud su mi i nokti u plavo-ljubičastom izdanju, sa motivom tkanine.

Today we're matching our manis to our outfits. I am not in the mood to wear black or red toady (my go to colours), and I am going to GamesCon in a simple combination of purple knitted shirt and blue jeans. That's why my nails are in purple-blue, with textile pattern.

Alessandro Striplac Care & Gloss Finish Pen


Ove jeseni je Alessandro umesto mazalica za nokte u preslatkim kutijicama (poput ove i ovih) ponudio nešto prefinjeniju, a podjednako praktičnu negu za nokte i zanoktice. Osim činjenice da je u pitanju nova mazalica i da je pakovanje veoma elegantno, podatak da je ovo proizvod ograničene edicije je meni bio prelomni razlog da je uopšte kupim. Olovka je poskupa, na sajmu je koštala 800 dinara za 2,8 ml, ali sam pogled na nju mi je dovoljan da ne zažalim zbog tog izdatka.


This autumn, instead of nail care products in cute tins (like this one and these), Alessandro placed a more refined and just as practical nail and cuticle care product. Besides the fact that this a new nail care item and slick packaging, the selling point for me was the information that this is a limited edition product. The pen is on the pricey side, retailing for about €7 for 2.8 ml of product, but a glance at it makes it worth wile.

CND Vinylux Gilded Pleasure


Štand na sajmu kozmetike sa kog se ne vraćam praznih ruku je Unitech, bilo zato što sam sama uzela nešto, bilo zato što mi dobra vila Verica napravi paketić. Ovog puta je odabrala zaista lep set i ubacila mi dva Vinylux laka. Jedan je bio po mom izboru, a ja ću danas pričati o Gilded Pleasure, laku koji je ona odabrala. Vinylux sistem možete kupiti u Unitech radnjama i preko njihovog sajta. I lakovi i nadlak koštaju po 1117 dinara.


Cosmetics expo booth that I am not leaving empty-handed is Unitech, be it because I got myself something nice, or because Verica, my CND fairy godmother, makes me a package. This time she made a really nice set, with two Vinylux polishes - one of my choice and the other one that she had picked herself. Today I am writing about her pick - Gilded Pleasure.

OPI Give Me Moor


Pre neki dan sam se videla sa drugaricama lakoholičarkama i povela se priča o skoro crnim lakovima te sam se setila jednog takvog koji mi dugo stoji među neisprobanima. OPI Give Me Moor već neko vreme nije u OPI ponudi i ja sam ga iskopala pre par godina na sjamu kozmetike iz korpice sa lakovima na sniženju. Možda je neka bočica ostala u Primi na rasprodaji ili u Nail Line-u iz Subotice.


Several days ago I met with my fellow polishaholics and among other things we talked about nearly black polishes, so I remembered one untried that I've had for years. OPI Give Me Moor has been discontinued for some time now and I only dug it out a couple of years ago from a discount bin at a cosmetics expo, but a bottle emerges from time to time on Ebay.

Born Pretty BP 104 & Cotton Claw


Veoma me radije što Born Pretty Store prati trendove u pečatiranju i ne samo da konstantno nude nove pločice za pečatiranje, nego i prateću opremu. Na BPS i njihovim podagentskim sajtovima se nedavno pojavila i napravica koju sam dugo, dugo iščekivala - hvataljka za vatu, koja olakšava čišćenje pločica.

ILNP Masquerade (H)


Među onih nekoliko ILNP lakova koje sam letos nabavila našao se i par duohroma u mojoj omiljenoj kombinaciji boja -zeleno-ljubičasto. Od svih njih jedino za ovaj smatram da mi zaista nije bio potreban jer suviše slične lakove već imam. Pakovanje je od 12 ml i košta €12,3 i na Hypnotic Polish i na NailLand.


There was a couple of duochrome polishe in my favourite colour shift (purple to green) among those ILNP polishes that I got this summer, This is the only one I think that I could give a miss, because it is too similar to other polishes I already have. It comes in 12 ml bottle and retails for €12.3 both on Hypnotic Polish and NailLand.

Kiko Smart Rame Metallico


U Rimu sam svratila i do Kiko radnje jer sam želela da uzmem jedan od njihovih lakova koji mi je u prethodnim nabavkama promakao, ali sam se neprijatno iznenadila kada sam videla da su svoju klasičnu liniju zamenili novom linijom Smart lakova. Ovi lakovi su brzosušeći, ima ih u 48, prilično neinspirativnih boja. I pored toga sam uzela dva, da vidim da li ćemo se bolje slagati (nisam bila preterano zadovoljna ranijim kolekcijama). Lakovi su u pakovanju od 7 ml, a redovna cena im je 2,5 €.


I paid a visit to a Kiko store in Rome, because I wanted to get one of their polishes that I had previously missed, but I was unpleasantly surprised to find that their classic nail polish line had been discontinued and substituted for Smart line of polishes. These are fast-drying polishes that come in 48, rather uninspiring shades. Despite that I got two of them, to see if we'd get along better (I was not too happy with previous collections). Polishes come in 7 ml bottles and retail for € 2.5.

Matching Manicures - Delicate Print


Danas po drugi put ove godine za temu imamo nežni print (prethodni možete videti ovde). Ovog puta nisam išla na očekivane motive čipke već sam se okrenula orijentalnim motivima, što i nije neočekivano s obzirom na to da nisam odustala (još uvek) od studija turskog jezika (i književnosti i kulture).

Today is the second time this year that we are doing fine print for our Matching Manicures (you can have a look at the previous one here. This time I did not go for the obvious lace prints, but opted for Oriental motifs, which is not unexpected considering that I have not (yet) given up on my Turkish language (literature and culture as well) studies.

Born Pretty BP-L040


U poslednje vreme sve više viđam pločice sa geometrijskim motivima, ali uglavnom se drže poznatih motiva optičkih varki. Ova pločica, s druge strane, iako se donekle drži tog puta, ipak pravi iskorak sa njega, čime mi je privukla pažnju.

http://www.nurbesten.de/born-pretty-126cm-rechteck-nagelkunststempelschablonen-dreieck-diamant-entwurfs-bild-platte-l040-p-34589.html

Lately I've been seeing more and more image plates with geometric designs, but they mostly keep to well know optical illusion motifs. This stamping plate, on the other hand, even though it is along the same lines to an extent, steps out of it, which is why it had caught my eye.

MoYou Nails 432


MoYou Nails s vremena na vreme organizuje takmičenje/izazov za blogere i ovog puta sam se i ja priključila i mogu reći da zaista jeste bio izazov. Dobila sam dve pločice po izboru MoYou Nails i trebalo je sa njima da napravim dovoljno reprezentativne manikire da mogu da ih podelim sa svetom. Jedna pločica mi je bila prilično neinspirativna, a ova sa motivima za francuski manikir mi se svidela, samo sam se plašila da neću moći ništa da izvedem zbog trenutne dužine noktiju. No snašla sam se i zapravo sam zadovoljna rezultatom, a nadam se da će se i vama svideti ovo što sam spremila.

From time to time, MoYou Nails holds a contest/challenge for bloggers and this time I took part in it and I can honestly say that it was challenging. I received two image plates chosen by MoYou Nails and was supposed to make manis that would look good enough to share. One stamping plate didn't really speak to me, but this one with French tips designs I liked, I was just worried that wouldn't be able to showcase it with my current nail length. However, I did manage to come up with something I like and I hope you'll like it as well.

Dior Vernis Gris Montaigne


Kroz moj blog ste mogli da primetite da nisam neki ljbitelj HE lakova. Meni odbojnost ne izaziva njihova previsoka cena sama po sebi, jer imam lakove koji koštaju skoro isto kao neki od njih. Stvar je u tome što sam iz tuđih iskustava zaključila da ta cena neretko nije u srazmeri sa kvalitetom, a firma mi ništa ne znači. Ponekada se ipak nađe neki poseban HE lak, a ako uspem da ga nađem polovnog po nižoj ceni, tu priliku neću propustiti. Dior Gris Montaigne je upravo takav lak.


So far, you could notice from my blog that I am not particularly fond of HE polishes. I am not on the fence because of their too high price, because I have some other polishes with quite close price tags. The thing is that I have learned from other people's experiences that that high price is usually not backed up by high quality, and I don't care about brand names. However, from time to time I'll find an interesting HE polish, and if I manage to find it second-hand at lower price, I won't miss that chance. Dior Gris Montaigne is one such polish.

Matching Manicures - Polka Dots


Stigle su na red i tačkice, za koje sam mislila da su tema za prošlu nedelju, tako da je ovo zapravo manikir od prošle nedelje. Ionako ove nedelje ne bih stigla da pravim nov manikir jer sam od petka na Beokonu, a i vas pozivam da svratite jer i danas ima zanimljivih tribina i predavanja, a tu je i cosplay.

Finally we're doing dots, which I thought were the theme for last week, so this is actually a week-old mani. I wouldn't be able to make a new one anyway, because I've been on Beokon since Friday.

I Heart Makeup Nail Geek Vintage


Mala Palčica je moj izvor lakova koji nisu dostupni u Srbiji, ali ih ima u Hrvatskoj. Tako mi je proletos spakovala par I Heart Makeup Nail Geek lakova. Ovaj brend mi nije preterano poznat, ali izgleda da su sestrinska firma Makeup Revolution. Očigledno ih ima u Hrvatskoj, a možda i u Sloveniji i Crnoj Gori.


Mala Palčica is my main source that are not available in Serbia, but can be found in Croatia. So this spring she packed a couple of I Heart Makeup Nail Geek nail polishes for me to try. I was not overly familiar with this brand, but it seems that they are a sister brand to Makeup Revolution. They are available in Croatia, and possibly in Slovenia and Montenegro.

Noviteti u septembru i oktobru


Prošlog meseca nisam pravila pregled noviteta jer sam imala ukupno jednu novu stvar. Zato sam se u oktobru delom raspojasala, a delom sam dobila raznovrsne stvari za recenziju i testiranje. Nastavite da čitate ako vas zanima šta se to sve nakupilo za ova dva meseca.

I haven't done a monthly review last month, because I had only a single new item. However, I let myself loose in October, and I also got quite a few items to try and review. Keep reading if you'd like to see what had found it's way to my collection.
