Bundled Opulent cloud (BM19)

Hello, dear readers and followers, hope you're having a great day! Not to mention that it's Friday, right ;)

Finally, another manicure post from me, it's a konadicure over Sally Hansen Opulent cloud (fully swatched HERE). I used Bundle monster image plate BM19 and China glaze Passion, then sealed everything with 1 coat of INM OutTheDoors.

What do you think of the manicure? Like it or not?

What colour are you sporting on your nails and toes?

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

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!

LCN 264 KOTD - grey&silver quicky

A quicky today:)

For this konadicure I used one of my new konad image plates from my last haul, namely the m73 and for the silver stamping China glaze Millenium (best stamping silver ever IMO:P ). Not top coat in the pics. First and last pic were taken in the lightbox and artificial light, the second with flash.

Do you like this image and colour combination?

LCN 264 swatch and NOTD

This is my very first LCN nail polish, the number is 264 (no particular name). It's a one coater over Nailtek f.2, the drying time is pretty long, but as I've heard this is normal for LCN polishes. The colour is shimmery silver grey with a hint of dusty purple, I think the pictures capture it well. I also used 1 coat of Essie g2g top coat.

What do you think of the colour? Do you own any LCN nail polishes? How are you satisfied with the quality? Do you have the same problems with drying time?

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

HAUL: Essie, CG, OPI, LCN and IsaDora nail polish swatches

Hurray, here's my new nail polish haul. I got Essie Sexy divide, China glaze For Audrey and C-C Courage, my very first LCN 264 and IsaDora 85 Sparkling gold, as well as OPI Merry Midnight. All swatches are 2 coats, except For Audrey which is one coater. There's also no top coat. As you can see I made my own light box, hihi, it's nothing professional though, but I think it'll work just fine. Do you have one of your own? How does it work for you? All colours but Essie Sexy divide are accurate, I just could not capture it, perhaps it'll be better when I polish my nails:)

Which one is you favourite? Do you have any of these polishes at home?

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

Winter-nail-art-contest-ENTRY

I decided to take part in Winter Nail-Art Contest hosted by Lisa (Dreamka) and her Nail Art World. The manicure I created represents winter landscape in the night or at the dawn, snowflakes are all around the scene, made with konad and with the help of China glaze Fairy dust. First I've painted the nails in China glaze Recycle, then stamped some nails first with fauxnad P16 and konad m12 and Konad special nail polish in white, yellow, red and green or painted the tips with OPI Alpine snow (how appropriate;)), afterwards I added some dots by Essence dotting tool and China glaze Liquid leather and Konad special nail polish in red. At the end I applied 1 coat of China glaze Fairy dust to create the illusion of snowflake chrystals. What do you think of it? Do you like it? Is it too much of everything?:) Thank you dear readers and commenters, have a nice and polished day:**
