Manikir inspirisan modom

Pre nekoliko nedelja smo u sklopu usklađenih manikira radile nokte inspirisane modom, a kako nisam stigla da napišem post na vreme, sada ću vam pokazati šta sam još onomad osmislila.

A few weeks ago, we did inspired by fashion nails for the matching manicures. I didn't manage to write the post on time but I will show you now what I came up with some time ago. 

Matching Manicures Sunday: Red + Born Pretty-BPY06 vodene nalepnice

Još jedna tema koja se ponavlja - crveni nokti. Prethodni manikir možete pogledati ovde.

Another repeated topic - red nails. You can check out previous manicure here. 

Matching Manicures Sunday: Halloween

Ovonedeljni usklađeni manikiri su posvećeni Noći veštica. Volim manikire ovog tipa tako da sam se radovala zadatku.

This week's matching manicures are dedicated to Halloween. I like manicures of this kind so I was very happy about this task. 

Matching Manicures Sunday: Leaves

Prošle nedelje smo krenule da pratimo novu seriju temu u okviru usklađenih manikira, a danas je na redu lišće. 

We created a new series of prompts for the matching manicures and the today's one are the leaves. 

Matching Manicures Sunday: Inspired by a Flag

Nedeljni zadatak je bio da na nokte prenesemo neku zastavu. Isprva sam htela da uradim manikir zasnovan na zastavi nekog udruženja ili organizacije ali sam tu ideju odbacila zbog nedostatka inspiracije i okrenula se sigurnoj verziji. 

The Sunday's task was to "transfer" a flag onto the nails. First I wanted to do a manicure based on a flag of an association or organisation but I had no inspiration so I dropped off that idea and did the safe version. 

Matching Manicures Sunday: Žuti manikir

Posle narandžaste koju još i nekako podnosim, na red dođe i žuta, boja koju niti volim niti mi stoji. No zadatak je zadatak i mora se ispuniti. :)

After orange which I can stand somehow, came to turn yellow, colour which I don't like nor fits me. But task is the task and it must be fullfiled. :)

Matching Manicures Sunday: Crveno

Usklađene manikire u novoj godini započinjemo bojama, a prva na redu je crvena. S obzirom da praznično raspoloženje još vlada, temu smatram vrlo prikladnom. 

We are starting off the matching manicures in the new year with colours and the first one is red. Since the holiday spirit is still very present, I consider this topic very convenient. 

Matching Manicures Sunday: Christmas Tree

Nastavljamo sa prazničnim temama, a ovoga puta je to novogodišnja jelka. 

We're going on with holiday topics, and today's one is Christmas tree. 

Matching Manicures Sunday: Candy Cane

Ovoga puta se zadatku priključujem na vreme, a tema nam je candy cane tj. poznati slatkiš u crvenoj i beloj boji.

This time I am joining the task on time, and the topic is candy cane, famous white and red candy.

Matching Manicures Sunday: lišće

Tema ovonedeljnih usklađenih manikira je lišće. Baš sam vam nedavno na blogu pokazala jedan manikir sa lišćem i to napravljen pomoću iste pločice koju sam i za danas koristila. Možete ga pogledati ovde. 

The theme of this week's matching manicures are the leaves. I have just recently posted one manicure with leaves and it was created using the same stamping plate I used for today's manicure. You can see it here. 

Golden Rose Matte 09

Golden Rose je još odavno uvrstio u svoju ponudu mat lakove ali sve do nedavno nisam imala ni jedan. Razlog tome je što ih nisam mnogo viđala u svojoj okolini, a i kad sam naišla na njih izbor nije bio nikakav. Međutim, Golden Rose Matte 09 mi je odmah zapao za oko. Ovi lakovi imaju 11,5 ml, a bočica im je matirana. Ne sadrže toluen, formaldehid, DBP, kamfor i formalinski rezin. U Crnoj Gori sam ih plaćala 1,55 €, a kod nas im cena ide od 160 dinara pa naviše.

It's been a long time since Golden Rose added matte polishes to its offer bit I didn't have any until recently. The reason is because I hadn't seen them a lot in my area and when I would find them, the choice was poor. However, Golden Rose Matte 09 caught my attention immediately. These polishes have 11.5 ml and the bottle is matte. I payed it in Montenegro 1,55 € and in Serbia their price goes from 160 dinars (1,40 €). They are five free.

Matching Manicures Sunday - Inspired by Book

Za ovonedeljne usklađene manikire inspiraciju pronalazimo u knjigama. Volim da čitam stoga mi je ova tema baš legla. E, sad, nisam bila sigurna da li treba da se odnosi na sadržaj neke knjige ili možda na korice, pa sam se odlučila za meni jednostavniju opciju - drugu. Odabrala sam "Instinkt smrti" Džeda Rubenfelda. Na žalost, još je nisam pročitala ali ako je upola dobra kao "Tumačenje ubistva" onda mora biti odlična.

For this week's matching manicures our inspiration are books. I love reading so I was glad to do this task. Since I wasn't sure whether it should refer to the book content or maybe cover, I chose the easier option - the second one. I decided to use "The Death Instinct" by Jed Rubenfeld. Unfortunately, I haven't read it yet but if it's half as good as "The Interpretation of Murder" it must be great.

Matching Manicures Sunday - Stamping (Born Pretty Store BP-57)

Za današnji usklađeni manikir na temu pečatiranja sam odabrala pločicu sa sajta Born Pretty Store BP-57 te će ovaj post biti ujedno i njena recenzija. 

For today's matching manicure whose theme is stamping I have chosen a stamping plate from Born Pretty Store web-site BP-57 so this post is going to be its review.

Matching Manicures Sunday - Spring

Proleće jeste uveliko došlo ali je prolećni manikir tek sad došao na red. Odabrala sam, gle čuda, da crtam ruže koje već neko vreme želim da uklopim u neki manikir, pogotovo nakon ovog neuspelog pokušaja.

Spring has been on for a while but spring manicure hasn't come to its turn until now. I have chosen to draw roses which I've wanted to do for some time especially after this unsuccessful try.

Geometrijski oblici

U prošlom postu sam rekla da ću vam danas pokazati manikir koji sam uradila preko OPI Scores a Goal. Da odmah pređem na stvar. :D

In the previous post I told you that today I would show you the manicure I did over OPI Scores a Goal. So let me show it. :D

OPI Scores a Goal

OPI Scores a Goal je deo Brazil kolekcije koju je OPI izbacio za proleće/leto 2014. OPI lakovi dolaze u velikim bočicama od 15 ml i imaju veliku pljosnatu četkicu. Ne sadrže toluen, ormaldehid i DBP. Koštaju 1200 dinara ali sam ovaj primerak pronašla na Sajmu kozmetike u korpici sa lakovima koji su sniženi na 500 dinara.

OPI Scores a Goal is a part of Brazil collection which OPI released for the spring/summer 2014. OPI polishes come in big 15-ml-bottles and have big, flat brush. They are 3-free. In Serbia they cost about 10€ but I found this one at the cosmetics fair in a sales bin and payed it a bit more than 4€.

Velvet flocking manikir

Današnji manikir sam isplanirala još odavno ali je tek sada došao na red. Iskombinovala sam nekoliko stvarčica pa da vam pokažem krajnji rezultat.

I came up to the idea of doing today's manicure long time ago but it didn't came to its turn until now. I combined a few things so let me show you what I did. 

Moda 266

Na 25. Sajmu kozmetike sam naišla na štand uvoznika Ilona '97. Pažnju su mi privukli Moda lakovi za nokte, a kako nikada ranije nisam čula za njih, imala sam želju da ih isprobam te sam odabrala jedan koji nosi broj 266.

On the 25th Fair of cosmetics, my attention was attracted by Moda nail polishes which I had never seen before so I wanted to test them and I chose the polish with number 266.

Moda lakovi su proizvodi turske kompanije Atac cosmetics, a uvozi ih Ilona '97 iz Novog Pazara. Imaju par linija lakova za nokte među kojima ima zanimljivih nijansi. Lakovi iz Extra Strong linije dolaze u bočicama od 12 ml i na sajmu su koštali čitavih 80 dinara. Ova kolekcija, prema sajtu poizvođača, broji 86 nijansi, i paleta prikazana na tom sajtu se razlikuje od palete prikazane na sajtu uvoznika. Kao što sam spomenula, nisam ih nigde po gradu viđala, tako da ne znam gde se mogu nabaviti, ali verujem da se negde mogu naći. Takođe, sastav laka nije naznačen na samom proizvodu, a nisam uspela nigde da ga pronađem.

 

Moda nail polishes are the products of Turkish company Atac Cosmetics. They have several nail polish lines among which there are some interesting shades. The polishes from Extra Strong line come in 12-ml bottles and this line has 86 shades as shown on the web-site of the producer. The ingredients are not listed on the bottle and I couldn't find them online.

Lak označen brojem 266 je jedan od klasičnih crvenih lakova u vrlo lepoj boji zrelih trešanja. Četkica mu je okrugla, srednje dužine i debljine. Lak se izuzetno lepo nanosi, ne povlači se niti ostaju ćelava mesta. Izuzetno je pigmentovan i po meni savršene gustine, te i jedan tanji sloj pokriva nokat, a puna boja se dobija sa jednim slojem srednje debljine. Takođe, i brzina sušenja je zadovoljavajuća. Sjaj mu je veoma visok i ima gelastu završnicu. Preporučujem veliki oprez prilikom nanošenja iz čistog razloga što ako dospe do zanoktica, teško ga je ukloniti odatle, i jedna tačkica može sve živo da ofarba. Postojanost mu nisam testirala, ali za sada je izdržao jedan dan i još nije mrdnuo. Na svim slikama imam dva sloja laka i nemam nadlak. Nastale su na dvnevnom svetlu.

The polish number 266 is a classic red polish with the nice colour of ripe cherries. The brush is round, of medium lenght and thickness. The application is really good, the polish doesn't pull, there are no bald spots. It is very pigmented, and in my opinion of optimal thickness so even one thin layer covers the nail while the full colour is reached with one medium coat. The drying speed is satisfying. The polish is quite glossy and has gel-look finish. I recommend careful application just because if the polish ends up in cuticles, it is hard to remove it from there, even one small dot can paint everything. I haven't tested the steadiness of this polish but I have been wearing it for a day without top coat and it's still on its place. All the pictures were taken in the daylight; I have two coats of polish and no top coat. 

Je l' ste imale priliku da isprobate neki od Moda lakova? Kako vam se čine?

Hvala vam što ste čitali. 

Have you had the chance to try out some of the Moda polishes? What do you think about them?

Thank you for reading.

Matching Manicures Sunday - Saran wrap

Današnji zadatak u okviru MMS je saran wrap. Saran wrap je tehnika za koju vam je potrebna samo plastična folija za hranu ili celofan. Sve što treba da uradite je da nokte nalakirate jednom bojom i ostavite da se osuši, a potom nanesete i drugi lak. Dok se drugi lak ne osuši zgužvanom folijom tapkajte po noktu. Time uklanjate lak i dobijate razne šare.

Today's assignment for MMS is saran wrap. Saran wrap is a technique which you only need kitchen plastic foil or cellophane for. All you have to do is paint your nails with one colour, let it dry and then add another colour. While it is wet, touch your nails with foil crumpled into little ball. That way you remove polish and you get different shapes.
