Silver&violet cherry blossom stamping with H23 - Valentine perphaps?:)

Hello, dear readers and followers,

how about some stamping over OPI Lincoln park after dark SUEDE (fully swatched HERE).

I chose China glaze Devotion and stamping plate H23 with the cherry blossom branch on it. However, the stamped image didn't want to be photographed:D I took enormous amount of photos to get somewhat decent result.

What do you think of the combination? Would you wear it too? I think it would be great also for Valentine's day, right;)

I have also done some Valentine's manicures and pedicures so be ready to see some of them really soon.

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

OPI Lincoln park after dark SUEDE swatch and NOTD, and yes, I'm still here:)

Hello, dear readers and followers,

I know it has been just too long from my last post, but the work has taken too much of my spare time. I hat to step in for one of my work collegues who wasn't feeling too well, so when I came back from work, I just had no strenght to do anything, not even polish my nails. I have some photos of my unpublished manicures which I plan to post one after another.

Here is one of them, a gorgeous polish I'm sure you all know, namely the OPI Lincoln park after dark SUEDE. There are 2 coats in the pictures, although I think of you're careful one would be just OK. I love the effect, how about you??

Do you own any of the SUEDE polishes? What do you think of them?

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

My stash :) warning pic heavy!

Hello, dear readers and followers, long time no hear from me:)

The work requires more of me than I've thought, so sorry for the lack of post :(

In the meantime I got a new storage place for my nail polishes, they were getting so many so I needed a new home for them. I bought a red metall container in Mömax (Austria) which I placed in our living room.

The total number of all polishes is 174, not so high right;)

Let's take a look at the collection.
The first pic is the stash before I began to re-organize it.



The second pic, my french manicure polishes:


My purples:


My pinks and berries:


 
My holos:


 
My reds:


My blues and greens:


My taupes, nudes and peachy colours:


My brown, black, silver and white colours:



My Konad stamping nail polishes (plus some other rather old ones):


My other nail polishes which I use primarily for stamping:

 
There're also 2 polishes in orange and coral, though I forgot to take pics of them.
 
My new ones (ready to be swatched):
 

Polishes which I tried but I don't like them anymore:) so they're going to be sold or given away:)


My treatments and top coats with some special polishes:


My collection of treatments, top coats, konad special polishes, image plates and other stuff needed for stamping organized in the drawer:



Other polishes which need to be tried and swatched:

 
That's it,  how do you organize your polishes? By colours, brands, types or any other way??

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

Sally Hansen HD Opulent cloud swatch and NOTD - mesmerizing


Hello, dear readers and followers:)

How are you doing?

Hope you're having a great weekend on this sunny and autumn day!

Today I've got for you the famous Sally Hansen Opulent cloud which I got in my swap with Elizabeth from Lacquered Lizard.

What to say about this colour that hasn't been already said:) I love it, love the brush and the application, what I don't love is that it is so too sheer. There are 4 coats in the pictures! But it dries pretty fast and the final result is still worth it.

The colour is an slight duochrome or perhaps triochrome:), it changes from grey, gold to lavender purple. mesmerizing!

What do you think of the colour? Do you own it perhaps? Or any other similar colours?

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


ps. I've seen that we're just 1 follower away to a big giveaway, YAY!

Double stamping - KOTD with m57 and m78

Hello, dear readers and followers,

are you having such a bad weather as I? Rain and nothing but rain, want summer back and sun:)

So today I'm showing you a konadicure I did while being in Mali Lošinj, and it reminds me of great time spent there. The polish used is China glaze Aztec orange, full swatched HERE.

First I used Konad special nail polish in black and konad image plate m57, then I added butterflies with m78 and Color club Worth the risque. In the end I also applied one coat of INM OutTheDoor fast drying top coat.

What do you think of the manicure? Do you like it?


Thank you, dear readers and followers, wishing you a nice and polished Sunday:*



All the pics were taken outdoors in the sun:)






a bit blurred to see the rainbow effect:)

Ruffian manicure with Sonia Kashuk Smoke and Mirrors - pics overload

Dear readers and followers,

how are you today? Are you also having such a lousy weather as we do here in Slovenia? It's supposed to be summer, but hey this looks like autumn or spring. Want some sunshine back!

On to the manicure:) What to do with a silver foil polish (fully swatched HERE) if not use it as a base for ruffian manicure. So I took China glaze Liquid leather and applied 1 coat over yesterday's NOTD. As you can see in the pics, Liquid leather is super glossy on itself, there isn't any top coat over it. Though the coverage isn't that good, you get full opacity with 2 coats, although there's only 1 in the pictures.

How do you like this manicure? Are you a fan of Ruffian? Have you got any favourite colour combinations? I would love to hear/ read them!

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