Skin MD Natural coupon code and There's never enough red:)

Hey,

today was a busy and a bit nervous day, I had my first lesson taught infront of our head teacher, there are four to go, among the obligatory 30 lessons I have to teach alone:)

Skin MD Natural has kindly given a -20% discount code for you, my lovely readers.Just type in KONAD and your order will be smaller for 20%. I just love their Natural shielding lotion, especially for my hands, it works miracles, you can see my review of it HERE. The code will be valid for 30 days, so hurry up if you want your bottle:)

On to today's NOTD, it's again a polish a got from my swap with Tuli:) I know I'm being a bit annoying wit repeating myself, but I can't thank her enough for sending me a bunch of these gorgeous polishes, thus there are so many polishes I can swatch right now:) Here's Careline 335, a bright and timeless red, great application, a 2-coater,  and 1 coat of Poshe Fast drying topcoat.

Please excuse the bad quality of the pics, I was in a hurry.

How do you like the colour?

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

Polish Bloggers Network: China Glaze&Seche Contest (shimmery matte konadicure)

 Hey,

how was your day yesterday? Were you spoiled by yours?:)

I had a great day, too!

When I've heard about the fabolous news of partnering of China glaze and Seche to sponsor an amazing nail/nail art contest on Polish bloggers network, I was sure I just had to take part in it. So here's the manicure I've created for this contest. It's made only with China glaze products, as I, sadly, don't own any Seche products, not until now, perhaps I might get lucky in the contest *keeping my fingers crossed* :)

I've used 2 coats of China glaze Branding iron, an amazing shimmery dark red, the name suits it just perfect! Then I applied China glaze Matte magic, I'm so in love with this one <3 and it created an amazing effect, just like I would have velvet on my nails. Afterwards I've used China glaze Millenium and fauxnad image plate D02. And that's it:) Hope you like the manicure.

You can vote for your favourite one at Polish bloggers network, HERE is the link, my entry is under Np.3 Anita (KONADomania)

Thank you,

and have a nice and polished day:*

Swap polish Jade 361, a duochrome?? warning: picture heavy;)

 Hey,

hope you had a great weekend and are now full of new energy for the coming work week:) I spent a great weekend with my BF in spa centre, amazing:P

Today I present you another polish from my swap with Tuli, it's Jade 361 (an amazing colour for which I think it's duochrome, and these pictures don't do it justice, it looks even more amazing IRL). If I try to describe the colour, I could say it's dusty shimmery pink and taupe, or mauve, don't know, this colour leaves me wondering on how to describe it, just as I've tried to capture it on camera. I wore this polish when we went skiing in Austria, please excuse me a bit white tips, as I wore it almost a week and there was not chipping or anything like that. There are 2 coats in the pictures, and application was great. At the end I've added 1 coat of INM OutTheDoor top coat.

How would you describe the colour? Do you think it's duochrome or not? What do you think of it?

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

Important Konad news and a BIG thanks to you, my dear followers

Hey,

long time no hear, I'm terribly sorry about that, but I had a deadline for a translation job I had to finish and finally I've made it, have to say what a week this was:)

As you've probably heard OC NAIL ART will no longer be able to accept all the coupon codes which are available around the web. The last to day to use your code is today, so if you've planned to order some great stuff go ahead and still get -30% on all Konad goods. You can still use a code (mine is KONADOMANIA, or any other code) at the check-out and get the discount.

I would also like to thank you, my dear followers and readers, and kindly welcome all the new ones! I really appreciate you following me, and each time I see a new follower I get so excited:) Big thanks and kisses

I promise to post new stuff soon, I've already made some new manicures, and especially konadicures;) As a matter of speaking I'm going to polish my nails right now, as there was not enough time during the week, and man those polishes Tuli sent me are really amazing, I have one on my nails for about 7 days and still no chipping, how cool is that!

Sending you my love and hugs, have a great and polished weekend:*
