Why I have been gone....

Maybe some of you are wondering why I have been gone for such a long time... No, I did not stop writing my blog;
no, I still paint my nails;
no, I still love other makeup and cosmetics....
but
yes, I have tons of work at work....
yes, I've been very busy with my family life and I'm proud to tell you...

that we are expecting....
a baby....

Review: Essence Vampire's Love Limited edition

I know I'm long overdue with this post, but because I love these products so much, I have to say a few words about them. I know you probably know this collection in and out, but here are my favorite products from this one.
I love and adore this palette, every single eyeshadow is something unique and beautyfull and you can create tons of different looks with only 6 eyeshadows. My favorite is in the top row, far left one. Dark dark gold, almost black with hint of gold is very appropriate for these days, when New Year's eve is coming and it looks amazing with some gold eyeliner and dramatic long lashes!
This collection came out with 5 different nail polishes. I have four of them, fifth is blue shade and I have way to much blue ones in my collection. These four are gorgeous polishes and also very unique in my collection. and you can see also very famous TRUE LOVE :-)
And this little bottle contains volume lash powder and small brush applicator. as you see on the plastic wrapper around, this are tiny bits of fibers, taht stick on top of first coat of mascara. and after use you have to apply another coat of mascara to achieve full volume of lashes. This is great to use, if you have mascara that only gives lenght, but no volume to your lashes.
And this are all products that are my favorite. I also have shimmer powder, but I used as a highliter, because it's just too sparkly to use it as a all over powder.
Thanks for reading....

Bundle monster #224 Halloween pumpkin

I started with Essence MAKES ME WEAK color as my base. It's very pretty peachy color, very appropriate for doing some design over it. First, I didn't had in my mind to do Halloween desig, but this color inspired me to do so. 
Here you can see this color on direct sunlight  and on natural daylight. It has cramy finish. My only complaint about this one is about the brush. Its very wide and not good quality, don't like it at all!
Than I choose this image plate from Bundle monster no. 224 and I went for halloween pumpkins design :-) I think it just so cute!!!
 I used black special polish from Essence for the design and I stamped it on top of my nails, so that I left tips blank. This way this design looks best, it looks like branches are coming out from my cuticles :-)
 I finished it with a coat of special topcoat from Konad and VOILA, the end resoult :-)

HAPPY HELLOWEEN!!!!

Red manicure feat. new ESSENCE polish TIME FOR ROMANCE

Last time I went to DM drugstore I saw two gorgeous new polishes from Essence and this one is my favorite. They are both appropriate for layering, because their base is almost clear. So, for this one I used as my base color this red polish from Mode cosmetics, called ARSONIST. It's on the darkers shades od red with golden and red sparkles in it. I couldn't captured them on pictures, but it's very beautifull on it's own, too!
And this polish is what I'm talking about :-) It's called TIME FOR ROMANCE. On it's own it is nothing special, because of the clear base, but over red polish, it truly shines! 
 It has tons of silver and red sparkles and a lot of red hexagon glitters! Truly amazing for layering! I applied pretty thick coat of this one and finished it with Seche vite fast drying topcoat. I like it... a lot :-)

Bundle monster #212 Abstract eyes design

Today I have another stamping design for you with new set of image plates from Bundle monster. For my base color I used 1 coat Catrice's Pool party at night. I absolutely adore this color. This picture unfortunatey is not 100% accurate. This color is a mix between dark blue and purple color, with a cream finish. Super for stamping!
Than I used Bundle monster image plate no. 212, all over nail design, I saw it as bunch of eyes, but I think they are very simple peacock feathers (only tops of feathers). But let's say they are eyes :-)
 For the design I used one of my favorite polishes from China glaze Metallic muse. And this is the final look. I topped it with special topcoat from Konad, let it dry and I'm done :-)

 Today I have very simple manicure for you, that is done very quick. As my base color I used Essence Limited edition URBAN MESSAGES no. 04 NIGHTLINE. It's a dark blue color with light blue sparkles in it. Very easy to apply and here you see two coats.
 I waited it to complety dry and that I applied one thin coat of Essence CRACK ME! SILVER on top of it. In a few seconds topcoat cracked and this is the final look.

 I hope you like it!

Bundle monster #211 flower design

Today I have another stamping design for you and, again, I used Bundle monster image plate, this time it's no.211's turn! For my base color I chose Joy nail polish in 387 color. This color is really hard to describe. It's a mix between greyish toupe and bluish shade color, very pretty, but it was  a bit too bland for me, so....
I chose this all over flower image for my design and for it, I used China glaze- Metallic muse, I love and adore!
This is the finall look and I hope you like it!

Essence TE 50's girls reloaded LOVE ME TENDER feat. new crackle polish CRACK ME! BLUE

Today I came up with this nail look. For my base color I used polish from trend edition from Essence 50's girls reloaded- LOVE ME TENDER- goldy champagne color, with frost finish. This one is extra easy to apply, because it's not watery or bubbly and you don't have to be so carefull with the brush, because of it's frosty finish, marks of brush are visible anyways :-)
I applied two coats and finished it with Seche vite topcoat.
 Than I used new crackle polish from Essence, called Crack me! blue (new fall color coming out soon!). We all know this crackle polishes and I still loveeeee them :-)

I applied thin layer and waited for it to dry. I love the final look, because it mainly has vertical cracks and the base color shows just the right amount. 
 I didn't apply any topcoat over it, because I love this look so much. Do you?
