CG Devotion KOTD (Purple on lavender)

 Hey, dear readers:)

Hope you had great holidays!

Sorry for not posting this konadicure yesterday but we took a day off and went to a thermal spa centre Thermana in Laško :) So here it is today, China glaze Devotion with a konad. I used Konad special nail polish in Violet purple and im m61 and a topcoat. The image was more visible IRL as it  is now in the pics, it was a bit difficult to capture on camera. The first 3 pics were taken in lightbox with artificial light and flash, the last one indoors with flash.

How do you like the end result?

Thank you, dear readers and followers, have a nice and polished start of the week:*

Romantique: China glaze Devotion swatch

 Hello, dear readers:)

Happy Easter to you all!

I'm sure you've seen this polish a lot of times, but this is my first time to used it for a whole manicure. Until now I've used it only for konadicures and I have to say that before I bought Millenium this polish was my number 1 stamping silver polish, here's China glaze Devotion:)

There are 2 coats in the pictures, the drying time was pretty fast, though you can see some streaks. The colour is silver lavender like, hard to capture in photos, as with flash it always looks like pure metallic silver but I assure you the lavender is clearly visible in person. The first 2 pics were taken in lightbox, first no flash and the second with it. The last picture was also taken indoors and with flash in natural light.

What are your experiences with Romantique collection? Which polishes you own? Or would like to have?

I think this one looks great, and I'm planning to add a konad to it too:)

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

Romantic french with a twist - KOTD

Hey, and good morning dear readers!

I'm glad it's Friday and that it'is Easter ahead of us, one day more to relax;) Wishing you all who celebrate it, a nice and peaceful holiday:*

For today's KOTD I used yesterday's NOTD with Jade 352 and Konad special nail polish in white and im m71 with lace and little bows on it. I dont't know if it could be called french manicure? What do you think?

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

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:*

Have a nice and polished day, dear readers and commenters:*

Finally, it works! A new KOTD, swap polish and guest nails

Hey, dear readers:)

A quick post today, only to show you I'm still there;)

A friend of mine came to visit and I did her nails with another swap polish, Careline 309 (bright shimmery pinkish-white polish, though the pink isn't really visible here), which I applied in 2 coats and then stamped with konad im m36 and m36-1 and special nail polish in black. Then I added 1 coat of Poshe fast drying top coat. Pictures were taken indoors with artificial light and flash.

What do you think? It's totally simple, but she liked it a lot.

EDIT: I've changed the pic, and now it works :)

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

Blogger refuses to co-operate:)

Hey,

I wanted to post some new pics of konadicure today, but somehow I cannot upload:( Are you witnessing the same problems as I do?? I wonder what is going on?!?

Hope I can do another picture post tomorrow. We are going on a school trip and we are visiting some great sites in our beautiful country, the part is called Prekmurje.  So tomorrow is going to be a looooooooooooong day, and I'm off to bed now:)
