Nails Inc. 512 Noho (Bling It On Rebel)

Nails Inc. je brend koji sam aktivno izbegavala dok je bio dostupan kod nas jer mi boje nisu bile zanimljive, a cena im je bila previsoka. Na moju sreću, a uvoznikovu žalost, prodaja očigledno nije išla sjajno sam ovaj set kupila upola cene, ako ne i za svega trećinu cene. Bling It On Rebel je set u kome se nalaze lak u nijansi Noho, superlepak i različite dekoracije.

Nails Inc. is a brand that I actively avoided while it was available in Serbia because colours were not interesting to me, and I found them to be overpriced. Fortunately for me, not for the importer, the sales obviously weren't great, so I managed to get this set at half if not even a third of the price. Bling It On Rebel is a set containing polish in shade Noho, superglue and various decorations.

Matching Manicures - Studs

Nova nedelja, nov nedeljni manikir. Ove nedelje nosimo nitne na noktima, a ja sam još uvek pod utiskom prošlonedeljnog gradijenta tako da sam morala i to da uključim.

Matching Manicures - Skittlette

Po ko zna koji put radimo Skittlette, ali na svu sreću ovo je tema koju mogu da radim iznova i iznova i iznova, a da mi ne dosadi.

We've been doing Skittlette manis time and time again, but fortunately this is the theme I can do over and over again without getting bored with it.

LadyQueen 3D dekoracije

Pre par nedelja mi je sa LadyQueen sajta stiglo nekoliko metalnih dekoracija za nokte o kojima, naravno, danas pišem.

A couple of weeks ago I got several metal decorations for nails from LadyQueen website and, naturally, I am writing about them today.

Matching Manicures - Studded Nails

Pošto sam uspela da se zeznem i omašim manikir za ovu nedelju, na brzinu sam htela da smislim nešto što zapravo odgovara današnjoj temi.

Since I managed to mess up and do a wrong mani for this week, I wanted to do something fast that actually matches this week's theme.

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.

Matching Manicures - Metal

Tema ovonedeljnog usklađenog manikira je metal. Ne znamo šta je tačno blogerka koja je predložila temu imala na umu pa smo je prihvatile u najširem mogućem smislu, a ja sam odlučila da kombinujem više metalnih aspekata - zupčanike, metalik lak i metalne nitne.

This week's matching manicure theme is metal. We don't know what the blogger who suggested the theme had in mind exactly so we have accepted it in the broadest sense and I have opted for several metal aspects - gears, metallic polish and metal studs.

Matching Manicures - pastel

Za neonski tematski manikir predvidljivo nisam imala materijal, ali za pastelni neočekivano imam.

One could rightly expect that I don't have what to make a neon manicure with, but surprisingly I do have means to do a pastel one.

Matching Manicures - Spun Sugar

Postoji nekoliko boja koje ne nosim. Tirkizna i zlatna su među njima, ali kombinacija ove dve boje mi se veoma dopada. Zato ih koristim u ovonedeljnom usklađenom manikiru, koji za temu ima tehniku šećernih niti. Nije mi prvi put da radim ovakav manikir, ali ovog puta sam užvala mnogo više u smišljanju i izradi samog manikira.

There are several colours I don't wear. Turquoise and gold are among them, but I like the combination of the two very much. That is why I chose this combo for this weeks Matching Manicure, which has spun sugar mani for theme. This isn't my first go at this technique, but I enjoyed both thinking up and doing this mani much more than the previous one.

Matching Manicures - zvezdano nebo

Današnji članak malo kasni jer sam bolesna i, iskreno, nije mi se ni rado manikir. Tema mi je primamljiva i imala sam ideju šta da napravim pa sam ipak nešto uradila. Nije mnogo, ali nadam se da je dovoljno i da će vam se svideti.

Today's post is late because I got ill and, to be honest, I didn't feel like painting nails. This week's theme - starry skies - was appealing to me so I did do a simple mani. Nothing too fancy, but I hope it is enough and that you'll like it.

Essie Serbia Nailfie

Početkom decembra Essie Srbija je objavio nagradni konkurs za koji sam se konačno nakanila nešto da napravim. Isprva sam htela da napravim klasičnu sliku jednog od Essie lakova koji mi stoje neisprobani, ali sam ipak odlučila da uradim nešto kreativnije. Konkurs traje do 10. januara, biće 30 dobitnika, a nagrade su Essie lakovi (jedan lak po dobitniku).

Essie Serbia has announced a contest that I have finally decided to enter. At first I thought I could just post a regular swatch photo of one of several untried Essie polishes I have, but instead I opted to do something a bit more creative.

Spajk

Prošlog proleća sam na blogu Lindsey Rivait osvojila poklon vaučer za Born Pretty Store i mada mi je nagrada stigla još u aprilu nikako se nisam mogla naterati da je isprobam. Isključivo zbog veličine stvari koje sam odabrala. Motivi na pločici za pečatiranje su premali za moje nokte, a ove nitne su veoma dugačke i nezgodne za nošenje. Trenutno sedim bolesna kod kuće pa sam odlučila da makar nitne testiram, da vidim kako bi mi stajale i mogu li uopšte stajati na noktima, a da ne otpadnu tokom obavljanja svakodnevnih poslova koji ne zahtevaju presvlačenje ili navlačenje rukavica. Nitne koje sam odabrala su šiljci od belog metala, kojih u pakovanju ima oko 100 komada. Prečnik osnove je 4 mm, a visina šiljaka 6 mm. Osnova je malo udubljena, tako da je potrebno staviti malo više lepka ili laka da se nitne dobro pričvrste za nokat. Ja sam ih pričvrstila izdašnom količinom bezbojnog laka i pustila sam ih da se pošteno osuše. Ređala sam po tri nitne po noktu i konačni izgled me podseća na neke učesnike performansa Postapocalyptic De/Com/Posing, Visions of New Hysteria dizajnerke Marije Margoth. Takođe me podseća i na dinosauruse iz Zemlje pre nastanka vremena i iz segmenta Posvećenje proleća iz Fantazije. Iznenađena sam kako se ovi šiljci zapravo prilično dobro drže. Nisam imala nikakvih problema sve dok nisam slučajno rukom udarila u zid i jedna nitna se odvalila. Ovaj manikir ne verujem da se može nositi duže od jednog dana i ako se odlučite za ovaj izgled za odlazak na svirku ili žurku pazite kako mašete rukama kako ne biste pokvarili manikir ili povredili sebe ili nekog drugog.

Last spring I won a gift card for Born Pretty Store at Lindsey Rivait's giveaway. Even though I received the prize last April, I couldn't make myself to try the items only because of the size of the items I picked. Designs on stamping plate are too small for my nails and these studs are very long and difficult to wear. I am sitting home, sick, and I thought I could at least try studs to see how they look and if they can be worn without falling off in the course of day that doesn't require change of clothes and wearing gloves. The studs I picked are white metal conical spikes that come in package of 100 pieces. The base is 4 mm in diameter and the spikes are 6 mm high. The base is concave so you should use more glue or nail polish to attach them on the nail. I used generous amount of nail polish to attach them and I let them dry for quite a long time. I placed three studs per nail and the finished look reminds me of some of Maria Margoth's Postapocalyptic De/Com/Posing, Visions of New Hysteria performers. It also reminds me of dinosaurs from The Land Before Time and Rite of Spring segment from Fantasia. I was pleasantly surprised how well these spikes held. I had no trouble with them until I accidentally hit the wall with my hand and one stud fell off. This is one night only manicure and if you decide to wear it for a gig or a party do take care not to ruin your mani or hurt yourself or someone else.

BPS Black Square stud rhinestone

Htea sam malo da se igram teksturama pa sam taman upotrebila crne nitne sa sajta Born Pretty Store. Nitne su veoma niske piramide kvadratne osnove dimenzija 3x3 mm. Na sajtu kažu da su ove nitne napravljene od aluminijuma, ali ne znam koliko je boja zaštićena te ih ne bih izlagala acetonu. Kako dolaze u pakovanju od oko 150 komada nema preterane potrebe za štednjom jer ih ima zaista dosta.

I wanted to play with texture so I used these black studs from Born Pretty Store. These are very short pyramids with square 3x3 mm base. They say on the website that they are made of aluminium, but I don't know how protected is the coloured part so I wouldn't expose them to acetone. They come in bags with about 150 pieces and there is no overt need to save them.

Elipsaste nitne

Jeste li spremni za za još jedne nitne sa KKCenterHk? Danas vam predstavljam čelično-sive nitne u obliku elipse NNAIL-DRN640. Ovo su metalne nitne dimenzija 6x3 mm prilično sličnih osobina kao prethodne koje sam predstavila. U pakovanju je oko 50 komada. Mogu se koristiti više puta, što je odlično. Za uklanjanje tragova laka i/ili nadlaka preporučujem potapanje nitni u čist aceton.

Are you ready for more studs from KKCenterHk? Today I'll show you steel-grey ellipse-shaped NNAIL-DRN640 studs. The dimensions of these metal studs are 6x3 mm. Apart from the shape, they are pretty much the same as the last ones I reviewed. There are about 50 pieces in a pack. They are reusable, which is an upside. I recommend dipping the studs in pure acetone in order to remove traces of polish and/or top coat.

Metalne kaplje

Stigle su mi nove stvari sa sajta KKCenterHk. Danas vam predstavljam čelično-sive nitne u obliku kaplje NNAIL-DRN664. Ovo su metalne nitne dimenzija 6x3 mm. Pokušala sam da ih rasporedim u nekoliko različitih šara, ali pošto su prilično dugačke nisu zgodne da se postavljaju horizontalno, što možete videti na mom srednjem prstu. Postavljene vertikalno odlično stoje. U pakovanju je oko 50 komada. Mogu se koristiti više puta, što je odlično. Za uklanjanje tagova laka i/ili nadlaka preporučujem potapanje nitni u čist aceton.

I received new stuff from from KKCenterHk. Today I'll show you steel-grey drop-shaped NNAIL-DRN664 studs. The dimensions of these metal studs are 6x3 mm. I tried to place them in several different shapes, but they aren't convenient to be placed horizontally due to their quite big length, which you can see on my middle finger. They look great when placed vertically. There are about 50 pieces in a pack. They are reusable, which is an upside. I recommend dipping the studs in pure acetone in order to remove traces of polish and/or top coat.

Srebrni cvetići

Četvrti set nitni koje sam dobila sa sajta KKCenterHk su srebrno-sive polulopte NNAIL-DRN669. Ovo su metalne nitne prečnika 3 mm. Veoma su jednostavne za upotrebu i lako se kombinuju i raspoređuju u različite oblike. Donja površina im je blago udubljena, što ih čini zgodnim za postavljanje na površinu nokta. U pakovanju je oko 50 komada. Mogu se koristiti više puta, što je odlično. Za uklanjanje tagova laka i/ili nadlaka preporučujem potapanje nitni u čist aceton.

The fourth set of nail studs I got from KKCenterHk is silvery-grey round NNAIL-DRN669. These metal studs are 3 mm in diameter. They are very easy to use and can easily be combined and arranged into different shapes. Their lower surface is slightly concave, which is very useful when it comes to placing them on the nail surface. There are about 50 pieces in a pack. They are reusable, which is an upside. I recommend dipping the studs in pure acetone in order to remove traces of polish and/or top coat.

Tamne nitne

Treći set nitni koje sam dobila sa sajta KKCenterHk su hematit-sive polulopte NNAIL-DRN666. Ovo su metalne nitne prečnika 2 mm. Veoma su jednostavne za upotrebu i lako se kombinuju i raspoređuju u različite oblike. Donja površina im je blago udubljena, što ih čini zgodnim za postavljanje na površinu nokta. U pakovanju je oko 50 komada. Mogu se koristiti više puta, što je odlično.

Third set of nail studs I got from KKCenterHk is gunmetal grey round NNAIL-DRN666. These metal studs are 2 mm in diametar. They are very easy to use and can easily be combined and arranged into different shapes. Their lower surface is slightly concave, which is very useful when it comes to placing them on the nail surface. There are about 50 pieces in a pack. They are reusable, which is an upside.

Zvezdaste nitne

Drugi set nitni koje sam dobila sa sajta KKCenterHk su srebrne zvezdice NNAIL-DRN619. Ovo su nitne prečnika 4 mm. Veoma su jednostavne za upotrebu i mnogo bolje izgledaju na noktu od ringlica koje sam prethodno predstavljala. Donja površina im je blago udubljena, što ih čini zgodnim za postavljanje na površinu nokta. U pakovanju je oko 50 komada. Mogu se koristiti više puta, što je odlično.

Second set of nail studs I got from KKCenterHk is silver stars NNAIL-DRN619. These studs are 4 mm in diametar. They are very easy to use and look far better on nail than the eyelets I reviewed previously. Their lower surface is slightly concave, which is very useful when it comes to placing them on the nail surface. There are about 50 pieces in a pack. They are reusable, which is an upside.

Detroit Metal City manikir

U nedelju sam išla na projekciju anime Detroit Metal City na ChibiConu, a taman su mi sa sajta KKCenterHK stigle dekoracije za prikladan manikir. Predstavljam vam srebrne ringlice NNAIL-DRN633.

On Sunday I went to the showing of anime series Detroit Metal City at Belgrade ChibiCon, and studs from KKCenterHK arrived just in time for me to make an occasion-fitting mani. I present you silver eyelets NNAIL-DRN633.
