MMS - Glitter Sandwich Manicure

Pozdrav noktoljupci =) Kako ste mi danas?
Ovotjedna tema za Matching Manicure Sunday je gliter sendvić manikura :D
Evo kako sam ju ja izvela...

Hello my nail lovers =) How are you today?
This week's theme for Matching Manicure Sunday is glitter sandwich manicure :D
And this is how I did it...




za ovu manikuru sam koristila / For this design I've used :
  • China Glaze - Dare To Be Bare
  • Let it glitter! - Oh Wow!
  • Essie - Good To Go - top coat


Prvo sam nalakirala jedan sloj Dare To Be Bare. Kad se osušio stavila sam Oh wow! šljokice i to sam radila kao neki gradijent!
Dodala sam još jedan sloj Dare To Be Bare i na kraju nadlak!
I to je to... stvarno jednostavna a baš lijepa i efektna manikura.
Ako niste toplo vam preporučam da ju probate =)

First I painted a coat of Dare To Be Bare. When that dried I added Oh wow! glitters, I did sort of a gradient with them!
I added another coat of Dare To Be Bare and a top coat and that was it!
This is really easy to do and it's still really pretty and effective.
I highly recommend you to try this manicure if you haven't already =)



Ovo je prvi put da radim sendvić manikuru i baš mi se sviđa kako je ispalo :D
Što vi mislite? Dali vam se sviđa?

This is the first time I'm doing sandwich manicure and I'm really happy how it turned out :D
What do you think? Do you like it?

Hvala na čitanju =) / Thank you for reading =)

Olakšanje za ljetne dane / Summer days relief

I decided to take a break from all the nail posts lately and to wrote you about my latest discovery that soon became my summer favorite and thing I can leave without. You're probably guessing what that is ...and its thermal water. The one I bought and use is EAU THERMALE by Avene.

Odlučila sam napraviti pauzu od silnih nokto - postova u zadnje vrijeme i pisati o jednom otkriću za mene koje je ubrzo postalo moj ljetni must have.
Sigurno se pitate što je to... to je termalna voda. 
Ona koju sam ja kupila i koju koristim je EAU THERMALE od Avene.
Avene is a french brand owned by the Pierre Fabre company and this is what they say about their thermal water:
Avène Thermal Spring Water originates as rain. However, the 40-year journey through the Cevennes Mountain aquifer produces thermal spring water ideally suited for the care and management of sensitive skin.
It gradually becomes infused with trace elements and silicates, achieving a perfectly balanced mineral composition ideal for sensitive skin. Avène soothes, softens, and restores skin’s natural balance. 
Over 300 stringent biological, pharmacological and clinical studies 
have clearly demonstrated the skin-healing and soothing benefits of Avène Thermal Spring Water. Even beyond sensitive skin treatment, 
this therapy has been used for centuries at the Hydrotherapy Center
 to address a variety of more severe dermatological conditions such as atopic dermatitis, psoriasis, ichthyosis and burns.

Cevennes Mountains 
Avene je francuski brend tvrtke Pierre Fabre i evo što oni kažu o njihovoj termalnoj vodi:
Avène termalna voda nastaje spajanjem podzemnih voda u gorju Cevennes i 
izvire iz dubine zemlje nakon 40-ak godina, 
bistra i čista, temperature 25,6° C, u blizini mjesta Avène. 
Tijekom dugog putovanja obogaćuje se elementima u tragovima i silikatima, koji je čine tako nježnom za kožu. Svojim blagotvornim djelovanjem izvor je olakšanja za osjetljivu kožu.
Osim nježne čistoće Avène termalna voda nudi vam i dugotrajnu zaštitu :
 kod suhoće kože, kod crvenila lica ,kod nadražaj kože, kod svrbeža kože,
kod opeklina, kod pelenskog osipa, prilikom skidanja šminke, nakon brijanja, nakon epilacije, 
nakon dermatološkog tretmana ili kirurških zahvata, na putu, ali i za liječenje težih kožnih oboljenja poput Atopijskog dermatitisa, psorijaze, ihtijoze i opeklina.



They came in 3 different sizes 300 mL, 150mL and 50mL.
I first bought 300 ml one and it's perfect to have at home, but if you need something to take with you this one will probably be to big for you ( it is for me). So I bought small one (50ml) also, this one is perfect to put in your purse and to refresh your face on a hot summer day - that is my favorite way to use it.

Dolaze u 3 različite veličine 300, 150 i 50 mL.
Prvo sam kupila ovu od 300 mL i ta je savršena za držat ju u kući, ali ako ju želite nositi sa sobom onda će vam ona vjerojatno bit prevelika (meni barem je). Zato sam si kupila i najmanju od 50 mL i ta je savršena za u torbicu, tako možete osvježit lice za vrućih ljetnih dana - to je moj omiljeni način korištenja vode.



I put a splash of water every night before going to sleep and every time when I want to refresh my face. I also had sunburns on my legs recently and this thing saved me..
It really cools down any kind of skin irritations.
Oh and I forgot to mention, the water itself is completely natural so it has no smell and it's hypoallergenic!

 Ja ju pošpricam svaku večer prije spavanja i općenito po danu kad želim osvježiti lice. Nedavno sam imala i opekline po nogama i ova voda me spasila..
Tako lijepo ohladi i ublaži bilo kakve iritacije na koži.
I da zaboravila sam napomenuti da je skroz prirodna, nema miris i hipoalergena je!



Overall I highly 
recommend a thermal water, I've choose this one because I really believe it's one of the bests but I do hope I'll be able to try some other brands in the future and compare them. 
Till then,  enjoy the sun and splash on :D :*

Sve u svemu , toplo vam preporučam termalnu vodu. Ja sam odabrala ovaj brend jer mislim da su jedni od najboljih ali se nadam da ću u budućnosti probati i druge i usporediti ih. 
Do tada uživajte u suncu i prskanje se :D :*

Summer gradient with a little stamping :D

Hello my nail lovers, hope you're doing great.
Today I'll show you my latest stamping adventure =)

Pozdrav noktoljupci, nadam se da ste dobro.
Danas ću vam pokazati svoju najnoviju avanturu sa pečatiranjem =)


I started with regular gradient ( you can find out how I do it on a tutorial I wrote HERE)
I used Live.Love.Carnaval, Where Did Suzi's Man-Go? and I Just Can't Cope-Acabana all from O.P.I's Brazil collection. 
You can read more about those polishes HERE! =)

Započela sam sa standardnim gradientom, ( OVDJE možete pročitati kako inače radim gradient manikure)
koristila sam Live.Love.Carnaval, Where Did Suzi's Man-Go? i I Just Can't Cope-Acabana iz O.P.I -eve Brazil kolekcije. 
O tim lakovima možete čitati OVDJE! =)


When the gradient dried out I started to stamp.
I used white stamping polish by Essence (one of my faves) and a plate  BP-16 from Born Pretty Store!

Kad se gradijent osušio počela sam pečatirati.
Za to sam koristila bijeli lak za pečatiranje od Essence-a (jedan od mojih najdražih) i pločicu BP-16 sa Born Pretty Store-!


I planed to do these little elephants, lions and the trees because I taught it'll look great over this gradient but unfortunately I couldn't transfer images onto the stamper.
 I have to say it was quite a challenge to stamp but I think that's because it was to hot in my house so stamping  polish keep drying to fast so it was very hard to pick up the entire image!
I'll definitely try to stamp again when temperature lovers down and see if that was a problem!

Planirala sam ispečatirati ove male slonove, lavove i drvca jer sam mislila da će super izgledati preko ovog gradijenta ali nikako nisam mogla prenijet sličicu na stamper.
Mislim da je to zbog visoke temperature koja je bila u mojoj kući kad sam radila manikuru, tako da se lak za  pečatiranjeprebrzo sušio!
Pokušat ću ponovo kad se temp malo spuste pa da vidim ako je u tome bio problem!


Of course I topped everything  with my all time favorite top coat - Good To Go by Essie!

Naravno, sve sam završila sa slojem mog najdražeg nadlaka - Good To Go od Essie!


This plate is now on sale and it retails for $1,59 you can get it Here!

Ova pločica je sad na sniženju i košta samo $ 1,59 možete ju naći OVDJE!


So what do you think? Do you have any stamping polishes to recommend? 

I kako vam se čini? Imate mi za preporučit neke lakove za pečatiranje?

O.P.I That's Hula-Rious!

Hello my nail lovers, I hope you're doing good!
It's been hot as hell for the past few days here in Croatia so I've barely put my forces together to write this post lol
As you can probably tell from the post title I'll be doing the review for this gorgeous polish called That's Hula-Rious! by O.P.I

Pozdrav noktoljupci, nadam se da ste super!
Kao što znate zanjih par dana je u RH bilo toplo kao u paklu tako da sam jedva skupila snage za napisat ovaj post lol
Kao što ste već vidjeli iz naslova posta danas ću vam pisati o divnom laku zvanom That's so Hula-Rious! od O.P.I


That's Hula-Rious! is gorgeous minty / pistachio green cream, fully opaque in 2-3 coats (depending on how thick you apply). I used 2 coats and no top coat on the photos.
It's a part of O.P.I's new summer 2015 Hawaii colection.

That's Hula-Rious! je predivan mint / pistacija lak, potpuno prekriva u 2-3 sloja (ovisno o tome kako debel sloj stavljate). Ja sam koristila 2 sloja na slikama i nisam stavila top coat .
Dio je nove ljeto 2015. O.P.I kolekcije nazvane Hawaii.




I bought this polish in Muller on 20% off. It cost me 79,99 kn that would be approximately 11,50-12 $
It's still expensive , regardless the discount , but it's worth it =D

Lak sam kupila u Muller-u na 20% popusta i koštao me 79,99kn. 
Skup je i sa popustom ali nije mi žao što sam ga kupila =D

 
 What do you think of this polish? Do you like minty green polishes?

Kako vam se čini ovaj lak? Volite li mint zelene boje?
 
 
Thank you for reading =) 
I hope you liked my post and found it interesting!

Summer design + MoYou Nails stamping plates 133 and 70

Hello nail lovers =) 
Today I'll show you a simple gradient design and a little summer stamping I did over it!


Pozdrav noktoljupci =)
Danas ću vam pokazati jedan jednostavni gradijent preko kojeg sam ispečatirala nekoliko ljetnih sličica!

 
For this design I've used / Koristila sam:

  • MoYou Nails summer stamping plates number 133 and 70
  • Emerald Sand, Blue Macaw and Silver Dacota by Parrot Polish for the gradient
  • White stamping polish by Essence and My Boyfriend Scales Walls by O.P.I for stamping
  • and Good To Go by Essie (top coat) to seal the design!


This is really easy to do, the only down side of this design is a lot of cleaning up, but it's worth it =)

Ovo je stvarno jednostavno za napraviti, jedina mana ovog dizajna je što zahtijeva puno čišćenja kožice nakon gradijenta, ali isplati se  =)


I love the plates from MoYou Nails. They're high quality and has the most gorgeous images!

Obožavam pločice od MoYou Nails-a. Jako su kvalitetne i imaju divne sličice!


These are the ones I've used in this design. 
I won them on a spring competition that MoYou Nails had couple months ago :D lucky me lol
They retails for £4.99 at the moment and you can get them HERE!
 
Ove sam pločice koristila za dizajn.
Osvojila sam ih na MoYou Nails proljetnom natjecanju :D koja sretnica lol 
Trenutno se prodaju za £4.99 i možete ih pronaći OVDJE!

 

I did entire blog post about gorgeous Parrot Polish lacquers I've used in this design, so if you want to know more about them just click HERE =)

Napisala sam cijeli post o ovim divnim Parrot Polish lakovima pa ako želite znati više o njima KLIK TU =)

Review of XF 1388 Water Decals from Born Pretty Store and O.P.I A Grape Fit!

Hello my nail lovers =) Are you enjoying the sun? I am :D
Today I'll be sharing with you my experience with these water decals that I got from
 Born Pretty Store to review!

picture is from BPS site

The decals are beautiful, really artistic and the colors are perfect.
Let me show you what I did with them before I start the actual review ;)


First issue that I had with these is the size!
I used 2 of the biggest ones (circled red on the photo bellow) for these nails, so no way I could do all of my nails with them, since there's just 10 decals.
Oh yeah and you have to cut them , but that's not really a problem for me!


Second issue for me was the application. I think that's because I didn't apply coat of polish, I just applied them on my natural nail, so it was really hard to keep decal stuck on the nail.
So I would suggested you to put coat of polish first, that will also prolong the wearing.

Third issue - when I applied top coat the edges of the decals started to bend and shrink.
I don't know why that happened, I always use the same top coat
Essie's Good to Go so... :/

 You can see on the photos bellow the white marks where the decal bent.


And now let me tell you about this gorgeous light purple cream polish that I pared with these decals!
It's called A Grape Fit! by O.P.I. 
I've bought it last year for like 70% off :D
The formula on this one is creamy perfection!
 Fully opaque in 2 easy coats and applies like heaven. One of the prettiest purple polish I've ever tried <3 


 Overall the decals are decent quality and you can make them work, but on the other hand Born Pretty Store has many more that are much better. I reviewed few of them before so you can take a look if you're interested!
 ps They're retails for $1,59 and you can get them HERE

Thank you for reading =)
I hope you liked my post and found it interesting!

MMS - FLOWERS / CVIJEĆE

Hello my nail lovers, hope you're doing great =)
Today's assignment for Matching Manicure Sunday is flower manicure, so let me show you what I did!

Pozdrav noktoljupci, nadam se da ste dobro =)
Zadatak za ovotjedni Matching Manicure Sunday su cvjetovi, pa da vam pokažem što sam napravila =)


The technique I used for this design is called "reverse stamping". 
 Basically you stamp the image onto the stamper but before you transfer it on the nail you filled it ( while the design is still on the stamper) then you put a coat of top coat and wait for it to dry.
Once dried you put it on the nail, sorta like a nail wrap, and top it with another coat of top coat!

Tehnika koju sam koristila za ovu manikuru se zove "reverse stamping" aka preokrenuto pečatiranje.
Dizajn se prenese na stamper, ali prije nego se prenese na nokat, ispuni se, nakon toga se preko ispunjenog dizajna  stavi sloj nadlaka i čeka da se to sve osuši.
Jednom suho nanese se na nokat kao jedna vrsta naljepnice, te se prekrije sa još jednim slojem nadlaka!




So what do you think of this design?
I kako vam se čini ova manicura?

(S)wimbledon by Catrice


Hello my nail lovers, hope you're doing great.
On today's post I'll show you new Catrice polish called (S)wimbledon. For me this color is the most exciting one from the new Catrice line so I just had to buy it =)
 It also have a new brush that is much better then old one (in my opinion), it's still wide but makes application easier!

Pozdrav noktoljupci, danas ću vam pisati o novom Catrice laku (S)wimbledon. Meni je ovaj lak najinteresantniji od svih iz njihove nove linije tako da sam ga morala kupiti =)
Ima i novi kistić koji je po mom mišljenju bolji od starog, ostao je širok i plosnat ali je aplikacija sa njim lakša!



The color is most gorgeous sorta bright turquoise/green. It has barely noticeable silver shimmer in it and it's completely opaque in 2 coats!
ps the pictures are 2 coats NO top coat =) 

Boje je predivna nekako jarko tirkizno zelena. Ima i jedva primjetan srebrni šimer  i potpuno pokriva sa 2 sloja!
 ps slike su sa 2 sloja i BEZ nadlaka =)




Overall  I love this color and I think its perfect for summer. I highly recommend it to anyone who has catrice in their country!!
 PS What do you think of this shade? Have you tried any of the new catrice polishes?

Sve u svemu lak mi je super i mislim da je boja savršena za ljeto. Toplo ga preporučam svima <3
PS Što vi mislite o ovoj nijansi? Jeste li probali neki od novih catrice lakova?

 Thank you for reading, don't forget to find me on


 Till the next time xoxo
