Color Club Warming Trend

Warming Trend sam, uz Golden Girl, iskopala iz gomile prozračnih, belih, bež i roze Color Club lakova koji su preostali u Unitechu. Ovaj lak je iz Snow Queen kolekcije, zimske kolekcije od pre nekoliko godina. Nemam predstavu da li se može naći u prodaji, a u Srbiji ga svakako više nema jer je Unitech prestao da uvozi Color Club, što je šteta jer su u pitanju veoma kvalitetni i pristupačni lakovi. Color Club lakovi ne sadrže dibutilftalat, toluen i formalin. Ne testiraju se na životinjama i ne sadrže sastojke životinjskog porekla.

I dug Warming Trend, along with Golden Girl out of a heap of sheer, pale, white, beige and pink Color Club polish leftovers at former importer's store. This one was part of Snow Queen winter collection from several years ago. Color Club polishes are 3-free and don't contain formaldehyde, Dibutyl Phthalate (DBP) and Toluene. They are not being tested on animals. They also don't contain animal products so they are vegan-friendly.

Urban Decay Gunmetal

Gunmetal je jedan od lakova koje je Urban Decay izbacio u okviru prazničnog seta prošle godine, a pre toga u Apocalyptic kolekciji 2009. godine. Više se ne može nabaviti u redovnoj prodaji. Urban Decay lakovi ne testiraju na životinjama, ne sadrže toluen, DBP ni formalin i da ne postoje veće niti zasebne bočice već samo specijalni setovi od po 6 mini (5 ml) lakova.

Gunmetal is one of six polishes from Urban Decay Holiday 2011 Nail Kit, and before that it was released in Apocalyptic Nail Kit for holidays 2009. It is no longer available in stores or on their website. Urban Decay polishes aren't tested on animals, they don't contain toluene, DBP or formaldehyde and that there aren't full-sized or individually sold polishes, only LE sets of 6 minis (5 ml).

Rimmel Lycra Pro 405 Fierce Cherry

 

Mislim da na ovaj lak ne bih obratila pažnju da nisam videla da su Lycra Pro lakovi na sniženju u DMu. Retko kupujem ove lakove jer mislim da su skupi ako se uzme u obzir količina laka i izbor boja. Frapirala sam se kada sam videla koliko su oni zapravo skuplji u DMu nego u Mauricius parfimerijama. U DMu su 449 dinara (na sniženju 379), u Lilly drogerijama oko 420, a kod uvoznika 345 dinara, a još jeftiniji danima kada daju 10% popusta. Na žalost, Mauricius parfimerije postoje samo u Beogradu tako da su devojke iz drugih gradova prinuđene da plaćaju daleko višu cenu ako žele da kupe neki od ovih lakova. Rimmel Lycra Pro lakovi imaju široku, pljosnatu četkicu zaobljenog vrha koja je meni veoma olakšala nanošenje. Bočica sadrži 12 ml laka.

I don't think I'd pay any attention to this polish if it weren't for a discount on Lycra Pro polishes at DM stores. I don't buy these polishes often because I find them to be too expensive considering the amount of polish and the choice of colour. Rimmel Lycra Pro polishes have wide, flat brush with rounded tip that made the application very easy. They come in 12 ml bottles.

Kiko 706 Verdone/Deep Green

Kiko 706 Verdone/Deep Green je zeleni magnetni lak koji mi drugarica donela sa puta u Španiju. Sama je izabrala boju i mogu reći da je ubola pravu stvar. U pitanju je malo mahovinasta zelena, a posle primene magneta se pojavljuje veoma tamna, skoro crna zelena. Nisam zadovoljna mazanjem. Prvi sloj je bio gust i pigmentovan, ali je četkica povlačila lak i ostavljala ćelava mesta. Dugo se sušio. Drugi sloj sam namazala za primenu magneta. Koristila sam motiv koncentričnih krugova sa China Glaze Magnetix II magneta. Kako su mi nokti kraći nego prošlog puta kada sam koristila ovaj magnet, sada mi je šara ispala veoma dobro, ako se uzme u obzir zakrivljenost mojih noktiju.

Kiko 706 Verdone/Deep Green is green magnetic polish my BFF brought me from her trip to Spain. She picked this colour herself and I can say she hit the mark. It is a bit mossy green that shows very dark, almost black, green after magnet is applied. I'm not satisfied with the application of the polish. First coat was thick and very pigmented, but the brush dragged polish and left bald spots. It took it a while to dry. I applied a second coat in order to use magnet. I used concentric circles design from China Glaze Magnetix II magnet. Since this time my nails are shorter than they were the last time I used this magnet, the pattern turned out very well considering the curvature of my nails.

Novembar

U novembru nisam mnogo kupovala - šest lakova, ulje za zanoktice, rozetne, a šljoke sam dobila na poklon. Činjenica da sam skoro dve nedelje provela kod kuće bolesna delom ima veze sa time, a mnogo važnije je što sam nabavila skoro sve lakove koje sam silno želela, a za ostale ili nisam imala novca ili su iz kolekcija koje se kod nas nisu (još) pojavile. U decembru se nadam da ću nabaviti neke od njih. Danas mi je stiglo i obaveštenje od Becky (Naked Without Polish) da sam dobila jednu od nagrada na njenom darivanju te i to očekujem da mi stigne u decembru ili januaru. Za slučaj da niste primetili, dodala sam u zaglavlje stranu posvećenu lakoholičarskim nagradnim igrama i takmičenjima koja su otvorena za učesnike iz celog ili skoro celog sveta. Ukoliko imate još neki da preporučite, rado ću ga dodati.

I didn't buy much in November - six polishes, cuticle oil and more nail wheels, and glitter was a gift. The fact that I spent almost two weeks ill at home has something to do with it, but more importantly, I got almost all polishes I really wanted. I either didn't have enough money for the rest or they are from the collection that aren't (yet) available in Serbia. I hope I'll get some of those polishes in December. Today I received an e-mail from Becky (Naked Without Polish) telling me I won one of prizes on her giveaway, so I'm expecting that to arrive in December or January. In case you haven't noticed, I added a page tab for internationally open nail polish giveaways and contests. If I've missed some that you know of, do inform me. I'll be glad to add it.
