Essence The Metals 35 rock my soul

Hlad / Shade

Pre koji mesec, nakon zimskog čišćenja Essence asortimana, na police su stigli noviteti. Među njima je i aktuelna I <3 Trends linija - The Metals. Od cele kolekcije, do nas je došlo šest nijansi od kojih mi je svega jedna bila dovoljno zanimljiva da je odmah kupim. Lakovi dolaze u bočicama od 8 mililitara, imaju srednje široku, ravno sečenu četkicu i koštaju 239 dinara.

A few months ago, after winter "clean up" of the Essence assortment, new products finally came to Serbian drogeries. Among them is a current I <3 Trends line - The Metals. Six shades arrived to Serbia and only one was enough interesting to me to buy it. The polishes come in 8-ml-bottles with medium wide, straight cut brush.

Primerak koji sam odabrala nosi naziv Rock my soul. U pitnju je intenzivan srednje plavi lak ispunjen gomilom zelenog šimera koji mu daje potpuno novu dimenziju. Naravno da moj foto-aparat nije upeo da uslika svu njegovu lepotu, uživo je pljavi i intenzivniji. Metalik efekat nije preterano izražen, ali ne zameram. Lak je srednje gust i lepo se nanosi, a uz to je i dovoljan pigmentovan da može da pokrije nokat u samo jednom sloju (samo jedan i imam na slikama, bez nadlaka). Uz malo pažnje potezi četkice se neće videti u šimeru. Brzina sušenja je posečna. Već nakon jednog dana na po nekom noktu se nazirala bela linija ali u poslednje vreme mi se to dešava sa mnogim lakovim pa može biti da je i do mojih noktiju. Jedina stvar koja mi zapravo smeta jeste da ovaj lak farba sve živo, i nokte i prste. Prvi put kada sam ga nosila jedva sam uklonila plave tragove (soda bikarbona je odlična za ovu svrhu ali i isušuje nokte, pa imajte to u obziru). Zato bih vam preporučila da pri skidanju laka pravite samo pokrete u smeru rasta nokta kako biste umanjili "štetu" i nastojte da ofarbanom vaticom što manje dodirujete kožu oko noktiju.

The one I chose is called Rock my soul. It is an intesive medium blue polish filled with a lot of green shimmer which gives the polish a complete new dimension. Of course, my camera couldn't capture all of its beauty, in real it is more vivid and blue (the pictures taken in sunlight are more realistic). The metallic effect is not so expressed but I don't mind. The polish is of medium density, it goes on well and it is pigmented enough to cover the nail with only one layer (one I have on the pictures, no top coat). With a bit of care brush strokes won't be visible in shimmer. The drying speed is average. Tiny white line appeared on some of my nails after just one day but that has happened to me with many polishes lately so it could be up to my nails. The only thing that actuallybothers me is that this polish stains everything, nails and fingers. The first time I wore it I was struggling to remove all the stains (baking soda is good for that but it also dries the nails, so keep that on your mind). That's the reason I would recommend you to make the moves only in the nail growth directon while removing the polish to prevent the staining. Also make sure not to touch the skin arounf your nails with a cotton pad that's already coloured.
