Essence the gel nail polish 23 wonderfuel kratka recenzija & manikura/short review & manicure

Pozdrav svima! :)
Danas Vam predstavljan jedan novitet na našim policama, ujedno i moj prvi Essence the gel lak.
Iako kolekcija sadrži mnoštvo prekrasnih nijansi, nisam imala previše dvojbi jer me ova na prvu osvojila. Veliki sam ljubitelj duochrome (ili gasoline- ne zove se lak bez razloga wonderfuel:) finiša i ova je nijansa kao stvorena za mene.
Sama tekstura laka i ukupni "doživljaj" kod lakiranja nije se uopće promijenio u odnosu na prijašnju colour & go kolekciju. Pigmentacija je odlična, iako je lak mrvicu rjeđi od većine ostalih čime je lakše dobiti tanki sloj. Također, jednoliko se nanosi i lako raspoređuje čemu pridonosi i odlična široka četkica koja je lagano zaobljena. Da ne duljim, i dalje su mi omiljeni i nemam zamjerki. Jedina bitna promjena je trajnost. Problem i moja jedina zamjerka c&g lakovima bilo je upravo to. Sada lak bez topcoata traje i tri dana, a uz specijalni Essence topcoat i basecoat navodno dulje od deset dana, iako Vam to ne mogu osobno potvrditi. Essence je ovog puta uistinu nadmašio samog sebe.
Kao što sam već rekla, u pitanju je duochrome finish, s dodatkom shimmera. Boja varira od nekoliko nijansi ljubičaste do plave, ovisi od kuta promatranja i svjetlosti.
Lak sam nanijela u 2 sloja.  

Hello everyone!
Day I'm showing my first Essence gel nail polish, the brand new product in our stores. There are a lot of different colors in this collection, but i've decided to buy this one because it totally impressed me. I love this shade and I'm a huge fan of duochrome (or gasoline- this is wonderfuel polish :) finish. Painting the nails with this nail polish is just the same as painting the nails with color & go nail polish. The pigmentation is great, even the nail polish is a bit thinner than the most nail polishes. It is also good because you can make nice thin even layer of polish without any problem. There is standard tight Essence brush wich is slightly rounded, so it perfectly maches my nail shape. All in all, they are still my favourite nail polishes. The only thing that really changed is lasting. Shortcoming of c&g polishes was the fact that they lasted about one or two days. The gel ones last three days without topcoat and, reportedly, more than ten days with special topcoat and basecoat, but I can guarantee that.
As I said, this nail polish has duochrome finish and it's slightly shimmery. The colour varies from a few shades of purple to blue, depends on the light and viewing angle.
I have two coats of polish on my nails.

Nadam se da Vam se lak svidio barem upola koliko meni i da razmišljate o bijegu od svakodnevnih nijansi uz ovu ultra neobičnu. :D
Nadam se i da Vam se sviđa novi izgled bloga. Nisam postala darker, već mi je stari izgled dosadio i pronašla sam način da blog ostane vintage, ali opet potpuno drugačiji. U svakom slučaju, sami prosudite jesam li uspjela. :D
Do sljedećeg tipkanja,
Kata

I really hope you like this nail polish as much as I do and I also hope you are thinking about an escape from regular to some ultra unusual shades.
I hope you noticed I totally changed the look of my blog. I also hope you like it. :D
Till next typing,
Kata

Matching manicures Sunday: Spring manicure, #GlamNailsChallenge - cherry blossom

Pozdrav svima!
Ovaj tjedan blogosfera je puna cvjetića i ptičica... Kad srce kaže ljeto, MMS kaže proljeće.---> Kod nas je vrijeme gotovo pa ljetno i ja sam proljeće skoro prekrižila, pa me ova manikura malo vratila u stvarnost. :D Ovaj put nemam zamjerki, stvarno mi se sviđa ova kombinacija gradienta (koji je, by the way, ispao prilično dobro?!) i grančice koju sam crtala akrilnim bojama. Grančica trešnje "nastavlja" se s prstenjaka na srednji prst. Manikura je u skittlette dizajnu koji sam prvi put isprobala prije tek dva tjedna, u ovoj (KLIK) manikuri. Razlika između zelenog i plavog laka uživo je puno veća nego na slikama. :) I da, zaboravih slikati što sam koristila... :/

Hello everyone!
This week you can see a plenty of flowers and birds on balkan beauty blogs, because this weekś MMS task is- Spring! I have already forgot itś spring because itś so warm here and my mind is in the Summer. :D This time I am really fond of the manicure. I like this combination of gradient (this time gradient looks pretty good?!) and this cherry branch wich is drawn with the acrylic paint. The branch starst on the ringfinger and continues on the middle finger. This is skittlette design. I did my first skittlete manicure two weeks ago, you can see it here (CLICK). The difference between green and blue nail polish is much bigger in reality . :) And yes, I forgot to take the picture of the things I used. :/

Koristila sam/I used:
Smart girls 204 (plavi/blue)
b. pretty 21 lime green (zeleni)
bijela, crvena i smeđa akrilna boja/white, red and brown acrylic paint
nail art kistovi/nail art brushes
točkalica/dotting tool
spužvica/sponge
ukrasni kamenčići/nail stones

To je sve za danas! Nadam se da vam se manikura svidjela i svakako provjerite i radove ostalih blogerica!
Do sljedećeg tipkanja,
Kata :D

Thatś it! I hope that you like this manicure and definately check other manicures, too!

Matching manicure Sunday- Starry sky

Pozdrav svima!
Iako je već subota, ova je manikura na mojim noktima već cijeli tjedan i bilo bi stvarno šteta ne objaviti je.
Riječ je o manikuri inspiranoj zvjezdanim nebom. Pokušala sam napraviti što veću razliku između ove i prošlotjedne MMS manikure i nadam se da mi je uspjelo (iako je spužvica ostala u igri), jer se teme djelomično poklapaju.
Ovom manikurom sam jako zadovoljna zbog dobrog stampynga i naljepnice u obliku zvijezde koju sam sama izradila pomoću stampynga i lakova (iz 5. pokušaja, treba se dobro osušiti inače ja jaaako krhka).
Ovo je pomalo bajkovito zvjezdano nebo, ali i trebalo bi biti takvo, zar ne? Ipak je na noktima.
Također, snimila sam i tutorijal kojim sam također zadovoljna! Možete ga pogledati ovdje.
S obzirom da sam, za divno čudo, sasvim zadovoljna ovom manikurom, nemam baš tema za pisanje. :)
Što se tiče Liebster blog award-a, skupila sam čak tri nominacije i zahvaljujem curama. Jedina "nuspojava" je jaaako dug post kojeg pišem u 106 navrata i nadam se da će ipak uskoro biti objavljen. :D
Ako sam vam dosadila s neprestanim manikurama, niste jedini! I sebi sam dosadila, ali ne s manikurama, nego s činjenicom da nisam sto godina napisala poštenu recenziju. Nasreću, punom parom isprobavam proizvode i bilježim dojmove pa bi uskoro mogli čitati i koju recenzijicu. :)

Hello everyone!
It is already Saturday, but this manicure is on my nails for a week and it really deserves to be published.
This manicure is inspired by starry sky. I tried to make the difference between this and last week's 
manicure and I hope that I succeeded (I used the sponge again), because the themes are pretty similar.
I'm very happy with this manicure because of good stampyng and stickers in the shape of stars that I created myself using stampy set and nail polish (from the fifth attempt). 
This is a bit like a fairytale starry sky, but it should be like that, right?
Also, I made the tutorial which I´m very fond of! You can watch it here.
Surprisingly, I´m happy with this manicure, so I do not have a topic for writing. :)
As for the Liebster blog award, I got three nominations! Thank you, girls! The only bad thing is veeery long post that I have to write and I hope it will be published soon. :D
If you are tired of the countless manicures, you're not alone! I am tired, but not because of manicures. I'm, in fact, angry because I have no time to write a nice review. Fortunately, I´m  testing some products and I´m writing impressions, so there will be some reviews very soon. :)

Koristila sam/ I`ve used:
Maybelline colorama 80
Essence Cracking nail polish 1. Crack me! black
Look by Bipa coloured sand nail polish nr. 4. glitter gold
Essence stampy set
Essence stampy polish  Stamp me! white
Essence Colour & go 137 Wanna be your sunshine
Essence gel- look plumping top coat

Nadam se da vam se manikura sviđa i da mi nećete zamjeriti što je ovako kasno objavljujem. Obavezno pogledajue i ostale manikure.
Do sljedećeg posta,
Kata

I hope you like the manicure and I hope that you won´t be mad because I´m pretty late with this post. Take a look at other manicures, too. 
Tiill next post,

Matching manicures sunday- snowman manicure

Pozdrav svima!
Ovotjedni MMS zadatak je manikura inspirirana snjegovićem. Dvoumila sam je oko objavljivanja ove manikure jer baš i nisam zadovoljna snjegovićem (ostalo mi je više- manje ok). Ali- s obzorom da sam crtala freehand i da sam koristila Essence tip painter koji baš nije stvoren za tanke linije (predugačka i preširoka četkica) i nail liner za kojeg vrijedi isto te da sam crtala lakovima, može proći. Doduše, kada ja radim snjegovića i ne izgleda puno bolje. :) Crtala sam ga prvi put, nadam se da će sljedeći snjegović ipak biti nešto bolji. :)
Ova manikura mi je ukazala na to da napokon trebam kupiti te akrilne boje, kratki i tanki kistić te pokoju naljepnicu. Novčanik još nisam pitala za mišljenje, odgađam to do daljnjega.  :D
Koristila sam: Smart girls 204 (plavi)
                      Look by Bipa coloured sand nail polish 4. glitter gold (zlatni)
                      Look by Bipa nail tatoo liner 2 white (bijeli-snjegović)
                      Essence colour & go 109 off to Miami (narančasti - lonac i nos)
                      Max factor max effect 36 Laquer noir (crni- usta, gumbi)
                      Golden rose fantastic color 174 (smeđi- ruke i metla)
                      Essence Shake me! I´m pretty! 25 Let stars rain down on me!(holo nadlak, srednji i palac)
                      Essence gel- look plumping nadlak
                      Essence tip painter
                      Essence točkalica
                      Essence holo stripes
                      spužvica
Uživajte! :)

Hello everyone!
This week´s MMS task is manicure inspired by snowman. I wasn´t sure will I post this manicure because i´m  not so happy with this snowman ( the rest of the manicure is ok for me). But, I drew freehand and I used Essence tip painter and LB Bipa nail liner wich are not made for thin lines ( they have too thick and too long brushes). I drew with nail polishes, too. When I count all this facts, this snowman is not so bad. When I`m building a snowman, it looks just like this one on my nail. :) This is the first time I drew snoman on my nail and I hope that the others will look better. :)
This manicure showed me that I  really have to buy acrylic paint, one thin, short brush and a few nail labels. I didn´t ask my wallet anything about it, I´m deferring it. :D 
I´ve used: Smart girls 204 (blue)
                 Look by Bipa coloured sand nail polish 4. glitter gold
                 Look by Bipa nail tatoo liner 2 white (snowman)
                 Essence colour & go 109 off to Miami (orange - pot and nose)
                 Max factor max effect 36 Laquer noir (black- mouth, buttons)
                 Golden rose fantastic color 174 (brown-hands and broom)
                 Essence Shake me! I´m pretty! 25 Let stars rain down on me!( middle finger and thumb)
                 Essence gel- look plumping topcoat
                 Essence tip painter
                 Essence dotting tool
                 Essence holo stripes 
                 sponge
Enjoy! :)
                 
             

     

Vjerojatno ste zamjetili zanokticu, ispričavam se. 

Prvi put koristim Essence holo nadlak i neznam zašto mi pomalo otapa pak ispod, sreća što ga nisam nalakirala i na snjegovića. :)

Do sljedećeg posta, 

Kata :)

You probably noticed the broken cuticule, I´m sorry. 

This is the first time I´m using Essence holo top coat and I noticed that it dissolves nail polish under it, luckiliy I didn´t paint the snowman with it.

Till next post,

Kata :)
