Lumene - Twilight

This is the perfect red colour. I absolutely love this polish. I feel as if I owe Killer Colours my soul. I will from now on buy every polish she recommends on her blog, lol. 

Three thin coats and one coat of SV. What you'll get is pure perfection. Perfection for 69 SEK.

 

Until next time, take care!

Lechat - Night at the cinema

My plan was to write this post before going to Malmö earlier tonight. Unfortunately I ran out of time. Me and my boyfriend and two friends of ours went to see the second part of The Hobbit at Royal.

So what polish would be better to wear than my new Lechat - Night at the cinema. When I applied the first coat I was stunned. A perfect one-coater! I was in a bit of a rush so the fact that one coat was enough was a polish miracle. The formula was great, the colour is great, the bottle design is great, the price was great. I NEED ALL LECHAT POLISHES! Sorry, lost my cool...

As I wrote one coat of NATC and two coats of SV. What do you guys thin, do you like it?


Until next time, take care!

Haul

Hey guys!
I'm super excited because I got some great nail mail today! The best part is that before I went to the postal office I did some IRL-shopping. So the amount of untried beauties has increased. Let's start with the ones I ordered from nailsupplies.

First out is China Glaze, from left to right.
Ahoy, Cranberry Splash and Running in Circles.
These where all $2.50 each.

Now it's time for OPI.
It's My Year, This Gown Needs A Crown and Matte Top Coat.
The matte TC was $6.80 and the other two where $4.99 each.

This is a new brand for me, Lechat.
Night at the Cinema and Ready for my Close Up.
These where $3.00 each.

Now time for the ones I bought at Åhléns. Three out of five polishes where on sale, that's pretty good right!? I was surprised because I didn't expect that there would be such a large amount of polishes on sale left. So that was a great way to start the weekend, lol.

The first two are from IsaDora. 
I personally think that these polishes are a bit overpriced so I try to buy them when they are on sale. 
Peacock and Black Amethyst.
These where 29 SEK each, which is approximately $4.00.

This is one of my favourite polish brands, Lumene.
Twilight and Small Island.
My old bottle of Small Island is almost empty(!) so I had to get another one. I bought the first one after my absolute favourite blogger Killer Colours posted a picture of it on her Instagram and I'm so glad that she did. It's my all-time favourite nude. Twilight is another polish that I got thanks to Killer Colours. I'm really looking forward to try it out. These where 69 SEK each which is like $10.00. Super pricy I know, but I had to get them.

Finally this little cutie. This is also Lumene but another nail polish collection. The collection is called Natural Code and the polish is Party on. It was only 19 SEK, $3.00 so that wasn't to bad. 

That's all for now :)
Until next time, take care!

Midnight mani - French skittle

I couldn't sleep last night, so I made a midnight manicure lol. I wanted to try my holo TC from CbL with different pastel colours. So I ended up with a french skittle. 

As a base I have two coats of Ciaté - Amazing gracie. The pastels are (index to pinkie) Models Own - Strawberry tart, Maybelline - Mint for life, Essie - Borrowed & blue and Models Own - Grape juice. Then I finished the mani of with two coats of CbL - Leather & Lace. 

I like this mani, I think it's super cute. The TC from CbL is great. No problems with application or drying time. That's all for now, might redo my nails later today lol.

Until next time, take care!

Smitten Polish - Amas veritas

Howdy!

Today I'm showing you one of the polishes I got for christmas. It's Amas veritas from Smitten polish. It's a hot pink jelly with pink, blurple and prismatic glitters. The formula was a bit thick but nothing to bad. Besides that the application was problem free with average drying time. The first three pictures are taken without flash and the other two with flash. I really like this colour but unfortunately it started chipping really fast, darn Glitter-a-peel. Oh well, that means I can repaint my nails tonight :D 



Until next time, take care!

Jade - Mirage

Double first!

First of January and the first Green Wednesday of 2014. My contribution is Mirage from the Brazilian nail polish brand Jade. The application was great, three thin coats that applied super smooth. The polish is a bit sheer. After three coats there is still some VNL, next time I might layer it over a cream polish. I have no TC on the pictures and as most holos the drying time was super fast. Overall I'm really pleased with this polish and I will definitely wear it again.

The first three pictures are without flash and the rest of them are taken with flash.

Until next time, take care!
