Color Club Fashion addict swatch ''Warning - picture heavy and danger of blindness:)''

Hey, dear readers:)

Are you having such a lousy weather as we do here in Slovenia? Rainy, foggy and cold days. But I have something to cheer you up, at least I hope so;) Last week when there was plenty of sun I swatched Color club Fashion addict nail polish. It's a light lilac purple holographic polish, truly amazing IRL but also in pictures. There are 2 coats in the pictures, though the texture is pretty dense and has great coverage. Drying time is normal. The tips weren't visible in such a short time as in Wild at heart.

On to the pics to show you this beauty. I took photos in the sun, indoors with flash, indoors with no flash in lightbox with flash, and they were so many I couldn't decide which one to post, so here are only a few of them.

What do you think of it? Do you like it too?

OT: I'm really p***** off, because now that I have tried these gorgeous shades of Color club I am not able to order them on Trans design, nor any other polish brand available at their web site, at least not with the previous normal shipping, and I was trying to order Revvvolution and Where's the Soiree too, and some other shades also but they were sold out when I did my last order. It looks I won't be able to get my hands on these, not even to think of all the new collections from other nail polish brands :S The new shipping charges are insanely high, more than 40 dollars per package.


Thank you, dear readers and followers, have a nice and polished day:*

Lilac and purple KOTD

 I fell so spring-like:) The snow has started to melt around here, and flowers have begun to burst from the ground, it's really getting warmer. I just wonder if there is going to snow again, because I have a feeling the winter is not over yet.

On to today KOTD, over yesterday's NOTD with Andrea 15 I added a konad with m69 and Konad special nail polish in Violet pearl, then I applied 1 coat of INM OutTheDoor top coat.

I really like the colour combination, I'm just a sucker for these 2 colours:)

How about you?

Thank you, dear readers and commenters, have a nice and polished day:*

ps. I've already taken pics of some goodies for my 300+ giveaway, I think I will post them tomorrow;)

I'm BACK and the first polish from swap with Tuli

 Just a quick post today, only to tell you I'm back fom my winter holidays (pics are coming, I took a huge amount of them, so prepare to see some winter landscapes and ski slopes). I've missed you, my dear readers and followers, hope you missed me too;)

Here's a manicure I did before I went there. This polish is a part of the swap I did with lovely Tuli. It's Andrea 15 (gorgeous lilac creamy colour) and there are 2 coats over Nailtek f.2, but no top coat. The application was great too. The true colour was again a bit difficult to capture with camera. I simply love the colour, great choice Tuli:*

What about you? Do you like it? Own anything similar to it?

Thank you, dear readers and commenters, have a nice and polished beginning of the week:*

My camera finally agreed to cooperate with me:) So here are the promised swatches from yesterday's post on my swap with Tuli.  

But first I would like to tell you who won one bottle of Skin MD natural shielding lotion. 19 followers took part in the giveaway and I've written down your names in the order you've written comments, then I asked my BF  to name a number between  1 and 19 and he chose 17. So a bottle goes to May. Congratulations! I'll send you an email, answer me within 48 hours with your shipping adress so I can send it to Skin MD directly.


On to the pics:P

Swap with Tuli, lots and lots of polishes:)

Not so long ago, my fellow blogger and dear friend Tuli from Tuli's Nail Polishes&stuff  and I decided to do a polish exchange or just swap:) Check her post on the swap;) I have to say that was also my very first swap, have never done it before, so I was super excited about it.

We agreed to swap 5 polishes and some other goods. So imagine how I was surprized when I received a large or better to say huge package from her. She sent me 9, omg couldn't believe my eyes when I've opened the package, different polishes. Everything she sent me was packed in the cutest box on Earth, Betty Boop, see it under the post.

The second picture gives you all the stuff she sent me, from nail care accesories, eye shadow, and of course sweets and other goodies from her country. No sweets are left, I must admit, my BF and I ate everything, and it was delicious:P

On to the polishes; Tuli sent me as I said whole 9 polishes, wow! The polishes on the 3rd picture are from left to right  Andrea 15 (gorgeous lilac colour), Jade 356 (amazing dark purple with purple and pink shimmer, reminds me a bit of Essie Sexy divide), Jade 361 (I think it's duochrome dusty shimmery pink and taupe, mauve, don't know how to describe it, as it's so great!), Chic 268 (very dark almost black  creme purple, eggplant colour).

On the last pictures there are Careline 309 (very light pink with silver glitter), Careline 355 (burgundy red colour with copper shimmer), Careline 335 (bright timeless classic red), Jade 352 (berry cream), and Jade 315 (bright red with gold, pink shimmer).

Tuli has chosen just the right colours for me, as though I would have done it myself. Thank you so much, you're a true sweetheart and I'm looking forward to doing another swap:*

All of the colours look simply amazing! I'll post the swatches tomorrow, as my camera and I weren't on good terms today:)

I would also like to inform you, if you don't know yet, she is having a GREAT Valentine giveaway going on. Check her blog for more details:) Prizes are to die for<3

Lilac-flowery-KOTD

Today I present you the second part of Oriflame nail polish haul:) It's a shade called Lilac shimmer, there are 2 coats in the pictures over 1 coat of Nailtek f.2. This colour has blue and lilac shimmer in it, sometimes it looks even a bit duochrome, at least in my opinion;) It looked so handy for stamping so I used image plate m64 and Konad special nail polish in Violet pearl and 1 coat of Essie g2g. I like the konadicure because it's a bit more subtle than my usual ones:) What about you? What do you think of it? Yay or nay? Thank you dear readers and commenters, nice and polished day to you:*
