Say hello to an Aussie beauty:) TBN Raspberries&cream swatch and NOTD

Hello, dear readers and followers:)

Hope you're having a great start into the new week!

Today's post is about another beautiful polish, which I got in my swap with lovely Michelle from Cosmetic cupcake. It's a brand totally new to me, namely the TBN (stands for Totally beautiful nails). The shade is called Raspberries&cream, and it describes it perfectly:) it's though you would crush the raspberries and add some cream to sweeten everything up. Lovely colour, though somehow my camera wasn't able to catch it completely. The drying time is normal also the staying. There are 2 coats in the pictures over 1 coat of Nailtek f.2.

I also played around a bit, so expect to see some nail art, or at least a few up-grades:)

Have you got any experiences with TBN polishes? What do you think of them?

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

Bundled Rich&Famous with BM12

Hello, dear readers and followers,

it's Fridayyyyyyyyyyyy! Hurray for that:)

Today's manicure is simple and cheerful;) There aren't a lot of flowers outside anymore, so a few on the nails would do the thing. I used China glaze Rich&Famous (fully swatched HERE) and Bundle monster image plate BM12 and Konad special nail polish in white.

How do you fancy this manicure?

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

China glaze Rich&famous swatch and NOTD - pics gallore

 Hello, dear readers and followers:)

It's Wednesday already, the days seem to rush when I'm at work, and the spare time is being reduced to minumum. But I like it so far;)

The polish I have for you today is China glaze Rich&Famous, a bright pink cream which was somehow difficult to photograph. The pictures taken with flash and indoors are quite colour accurate. It a great summer polish and if you want the feeling of the summer to return, try it;) There are 2 coats in the pictures, over 1 coat of Nailtek f.2 and one coat of INM OutTheDoor topcoat. Though the colour is pretty much glossy on it self.

How do you fancy this colour? Have you got any similar ones?

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

Summer nails - Ulta3 Watermelon swatch and some summer memories

Hello, dear readers and followers:)

FRIDAY! YAY:)

Today I've got for you the manicure I wore when I was at the sea side during my vacation. The colour I chose was Ulta3 in Watermelon, lovely coral cream colour which I got in my swap with 'chelle from Cosmetic Cupcake. There are 2 coats in the pictures and no top coat.  I had no application troubles. The polish dried fairly quickly. This is my very first nail polish in coral,  I did not own any before:)

As for the name, I just had to take some photos with fresh and juicy watermelon in my hands, delicious :P

How do you like coral colours? Have any favourites? What do you think of this one?

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

Swap from Down Under with Michelle

Hey, dear readers and followers:)

Having a busy weekend, as I have??

Still not much time to do things I love, as for example polishing etc. My days consist of learning, cleaning, cooking, usual household chores that need to be done, but I'm still enjoying the weekend though my BF is away and has been working form Friday till tomorrow, and I'm home alone.

Here's what I got for you today, a SWAP! YAY! After writing a post on taking up a swap, Michelle or 'chelle from Cosmetic Cupcake responded and we soon arranged a swap, which included nail polish of course:) She sent me the brands that aren't available here in Europe. So I received 3 ulta3 polishes in Sweet violet (shimmery a bit frosty violet as the name implies:), Watermelon (sweet coral cream and a colour new to me, I have to admit I haven't owned any coral polish up till now), Hot spring (rich berry cream); 2 TBN polishes in Aubergine (gorgeous eggplant purple loaded with shimmer) and in Raspberries&cream (another lovely which really looks as though you would have crushed raspberries mixed with some cream); 3 BYS polishes whereas 2 are crack polishes (in black and purple!) and one is in Raspberry sorbet (another pretty, dark shimmery brownish red colour), and last but not least my first Glitter gal polish in Fuchsia (a holographic goodnes in bottle). The package also included 1 stamping fauxnad plate and some fimo sticks which I admired on the internet but never tried them out, thanks a bunch:) I just hope the swatches are coming soon, or at least that I have enough time to polish my nails in those gorgeous colours;)

Michelle also added 1 bottle of her favourite cuticle moisturizer Essie Apricot cuticle oil (gorgeous smell and I've have already tried this one out, it really adds extra moisture to the nails) and a tube of her favourite cream Lucas's papaw treatment which I'm saving up for sea holidays:)

Thank you so much Michelle, it was really so much fun doing a swap with you and I loved every single item you sent me! Please check out her blog, she is also having a giveaway at the moment, so hurry up:)

My first Color club polishes - haul

Hey, dear readers:) 

I had a busy weekend, we prepared a surprize party and I made a special cake for this occasion. It was in the form of a farm tractor. If you wish I can do a post on it, but it will be picture heavy:) Let me know if you want to see it. I'm still super busy these days, but new posts are coming;)

I also got my very first Color club polishes, wow I'm super excited to try them out. A big thanks goes to Anchek from Rainbows and Blues blog! If it wasn't for her, I would never have gotten these polishes.

Do you own any CC polishes? How are you satisfied with the quality? Do you have any of the shades in the pics?

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

China glaze Agent lavender swatch and NOTD

Hey, dear readers,

how are you today? What polish are you wearing?

Today's NOTD and swatch is the famous China glaze Agent lavender, and I think there's no need to introduce this colour to you, as it's really well known amongst nail polish lovers:) It's a great colour for spring too.

There's 2 coats in the pics, you necessarily need 2 as one is so streaky. I also added 1 coat of INM OutTheDoor topcoat to make it shinnier.

First two pics are taken in the sun and the second two in my lightbox under artificial light and are a bit more colour accurate.

How do you like the colour? Do you own this one?

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

Berry delight or Jade 352 NOTD - quicky but loaded with pics:)

Hey, dear readers:)

How are you today? Which colour are you wearing?

Today's post is going to be a short one, the polish used is again one of the polishes I received in my swap with lovely Tuli. It's Jade 352, creamy berry colour, though the pics don't show the whole beauty of it. I had no problems with application, great pigmentation, there are 2 coats in the pictures and 1 coat of INM OutTheDoors topcoat. All pics except the last one were taken in my lightbox with artificial light, the last one was taken indoors with flash.

Do you like the colour? It's one of my favorites. Thank you, Tuli:*
