What's better than 1 holo?? 2-holo konadicure and 300 followers:*

Hello, Ladies!

How are you doing? Having freshly painted nails;)

First, I would like to thank you, my dear readers and followers, for staying with me and giving all your wonderful comments to my posts. I read every one of them and try to answer, even if it's simple thank you to show my gratitude to you.  It so great to see that you're read and welcomed in the blogger sphere. When I've first started to write a blog, I really did not think that it could have as many 300 followers. Thank you again:*

Do you have any suggestions for a giveaway? There will certainly be a konad related prize in it. How about other things? What would you like to see/get?:) There will certainly be polishes, mainly Essence and S-he, perhaps also of some other, here available, brands. Would you like pre-set colours? Or the ones you choose? The prize will also include products that are my favourite ones;) I'm open to your suggestions.

On to today's konadicure;) I was thinking which polish to use for today's konadicure:) As LOL is holographic polish I thought why not use another holo polish for stamping, therefore I chose China glaze OMG from the same collection and image plate m69.

What do you think of the colour combination? Does the image go well together with the colours?

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

China glaze LOL - holographic goodness and Giveaway reminder

Hope you had a great weekend:)

A quicky today. As you know I'm a purple lover, and I also love holographic polishes, so what better way to combine my love in China glaze LOL. There are 2 coats in the picture over 1 coat of Nailtek f.2, without the top coat. All pictures were taken in the lightbox with artificial light so the colours are more or less accurate.

What do you think of the colour? Enlarge the pictures to see the detail;)

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

You can still enter Skin MD Natural shielding lotion giveaway, untill 24.00 today (Slovenia time).

Skin MD review and Giveaway - a bottle for YOU:)

As promised, I'm posting the review of Skin MD Natural Shielding lotion I got from Skin MD company. I've been using it for about 3 weeks now. The bottle says you can use it on the face, body and hands, so I've tried it all around my body to give a round review on it. Check their site on ingredients, every ingredient is explained in detail.

Face:

My skin type is mixed to oily, so I was a bit afraid that the lotion might encourage the outburst of acnae on my skin, but it did not, at least not more than they would normally come out:). It really absorbes into your skin in no time, without leaving a greasy feeling on it and gives the moisturized effect. I applied it in the morning and before bed time time. A small amount takes you a long way, so a bottle would be enough, if you use it only on your face, for a long long time. If your skin is oily and acnae prone, you should be careful, but if it normal or even dry, go for it!

Body:

One of the main ingredients is Aloe Vera, which is known for it's soothing effect. Therefore I used the lotion after depilating my legs. And it worked great! It calmed down the redness leaving the skin smooth.

Hands:

I just love to use it on my hands! There is no greasy feeling like with majority of hand creams, just moisturized, soft skin on your hands, although I use it only 2 times a day. The cuticles are nourished and supple.

Do you have experiences with this lotion? Would you like to try it?

There was a bottle for me and Skin MD kindly offered a bottle for you, my lovely readers and commenters!

Just be a follower and post a comment with your email:) I'll draw one (1) winner who will get her/his bottle shipped directly from Skin MD.

The giveaway ends on Monday Midnight (1st February 2010) Slovenia time.

Good luck:*

Konaded Mannequin Hands

As promised or anticipated;) I bring you yesterday's NOTD with a konad over it. I used one of my new plates, Konad image plate m69 and Konad special nail polish in white, as well as 1 coat of Poshe fast drying top coat.

What do you think of the colour combination? I think it reminds me a bit of coffee and milk/cream:)

Catrice Nude sensation LE - Attempt at Mannequin hands

 Not so long ago, the European brand named Catrice launched it's new Limited Edition Nude sensations. As I was looking for a polish similar to Essence Iced Chai Latte I stumbled across this one because it seemed similar to it. Though the shimmer is more evident in Iced Chai Latte, it is still present in Nude Beige, which is also a bit lighter shaded. While Iced Chai Latte required only 1 coat, I had to do 3 coats of Nude Beige 1 coat of Nailtek f.2 to get full coverage, at least it dried pretty quickly:)

SO here it is and I wanted to create the mannequin hands with it, decide for yourself whether I've succeeded;)

What do you think of the colour? What are your experiences with nude polishes?

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