(I just love this plate!)

I do not genrally do this, but I want to show you what I have recently bought ...

 

Do you wonder why I doubled the colours?

Because half of them will be a part of my 300 followers giveaway :)

I'm currently wearing an orange one and I can tell you it's awesome! very flashy neon and only two layers are needed! How cool is that?

Stay tuned!

Have a nice weekend!

(I'm off for the weekend so the next post is going to appear next week)

Bye.

first attempts at free hand

As I promised, sth more sophisticated today ;P

Recently, I bought some acrylic paints and this is one of my first attempts at free hand..

To be exact, it's my third mani done this way :) 

Of course, you will see another two in the near future :)

It simple because I do not have much practice yet ;)

What's more, I'd say I gilded a lily here ...

However, I hope you like it..

Base colour - Sensique - Strong and Trendy Nails - Candy Floss 

Cloudy.

It's nothing special  but I had to try this design out :)

It's cute but in fact, I did not feel very comfortable wearing it..

I promise to show you sth more sophisticated soon :)

Stay tuned.

Leaves.

I just love the leaves design from the old BM set.

There is only one problem. It should be bigger!!! 

I wish Bundle Monster did something about it..

I stamped it twice but it still does not look as it should.

What do you think?

I hope to show you something more sophisticated using that technique soon.. :)

To co przygotowała dla nas firma Sensique na Lato 2011 zdecydowanie przypadło mi do gustu. Powiem więcej, jestem oczarowana większością kolorów. Gdy zobaczyłam zapowiedź, zastanawiałam się - po co tyle niebieskiego? Ale teraz już rozumiem! Każdy jest wyjątkowy i nie zamieniłabym go na żaden inny kolor. Moim zdecydowanym faworytem jest Sea Breeze! Zakochałam się również w Sea Green, Candyfloss i Drink with lime na tyle, iż ogarnął mnie smutek, że to tylko limitka a nie regularna kolekcja. Co za tym idzie, nie będzie już możliwości ponownego zakupu, gdy się zużyje.. 

Jeśli chodzi o Drink with lime - spodziewałam się ciemniejszej zieleni, takiej prawie militarnej, z tego co widać, nie jest to taki kolor ale również bardzo mi się podoba.  

A Wam które kolory się podobają?

Dodam jeszcze, że bardzo mnie cieszy, że pojawiły się nazwy odcieni! To dla mnie istotna sprawa :)

Jakość dobra, 2-3 warstwy potrzebne do satysfakcjonującego efektu, schnie dość szybko. 
Producent zaleca nakładać lakier na warstwę bazy.

Sensique idzie w dobrą stronę, oby tak dalej :)

TAG: Jak mieszkają moje kosmetyki?

I recently got tagged by

lidzia007

kamilkamilka

kleopatre

THANK YOU GIRLS!

The rules are to show how you store your beauty stuff :) As simple as that.

Then to tag ten other people and inform them about the tag.

The title of the tag "Jak mieszkają moje kosmetyki" is in Polish, it simply means - "Where do I store my cosmetics?"

In the bathroom on the shelf:

I have a few plastic baskets I bought in supermarket last year. That's were I store my make-up stuff and polishes.

I keep them in a glass case in my bedroom.

In fact, I have not much when it comes to make up...

Violet basket - that's what I normally use 

Green basket - I hardly ever use it 

Polishes.. 

For me it is a lot, but I know that many girls have more polishes than me.

Glitters & Stamping

That's it, I guess.

I just wanted to test this design, it's cute but I don't like it very much on my nails..

I don't think I'm going to wear it in the future.

What do you think?

I would say that it looks a bit dignified :P

At least I felt this way wearing it...

Dark side of Sensique.

 

Dark colours from Sensique's regular collection - Strong and Trendy Nails.

I don't generally wear these kind of colours.

Having tried these, I'm starting to change my attitude towards such dark shades.

Especially thanks to no. 141, which is gorgeous, I think. I also liked no. 129 and 143.

However, when it comes to 139, which is dark brown creme, I have to admit that I don't like the way it looks on me and the colour itself. 

Which one do you like?

Dzisiaj ciemna strona Sensique :)

To określenie tyczy się jedynie odcieni, gdyż jakość lakierów mnie zadowala i nie mam zastrzeżeń w tym kierunku. 

Na co dzień nie używam tak ciemnych odcieni, ale to była miła odmiana i troszkę się do nich przekonałam. Szczególnie dzięki 141, który posiada mnóstwo błyszczących drobinek przez co w słońcu prezentuje się cudownie. 129 i 143 też przypadły mi do gustu i dobrze się w nich czułam. Natomiast w kremowym brązie 139 czułam się źle, uważam, że nie pasuje do mnie ten kolor. To oczywiście kwestia gustu.

Nie wiem czy ktoś zauważył, ale orientacja zdjęć dziś jest inna. Przez przypadek tak mi się wgrało i już nie miałam chęci zmieniać :)

Miłego dnia.

Virtual Nail Art Contest - Voters' prizes

Hi girls,

Who has won a lip gloss?

Sorry girls, I'm not going to show you how I've chosen the winners because it would be too time consuming. I have to finish the chapter of my MA thesis until the July 14th so I'm mainly focused on that. 

I only tell you that I used random.org to pick the winners. I hope you don't mind.

the winners are:

1. KiziaMizia

2. Witoxicity

3. sarahlouise-1986

4. kamilkamilka

5. Yasminella

6. Lady in Purplee

7. Angeles

8. roxytheone

Congratulations!

I will send you an email soon.

Virtual Nail Art Contest - Results !!!

At first I would like to thank all the entrants and voters.

You are the best!

There were MANY invalid votes, which I didn't count.

I only counted the valid ones.

I had to analyse every single vote, cause I wanted it to be completely fair.

That's why it took so much time.

But I finally know the results. 

 

 What did the voters say about the winning nail art?

"The colour combination is great and the nail art looks very sophisticated for the base colour." Anne (the Netherlands)
---------

"So elegant and the design is sooo perfect.  Love the color combo :)" rmcanelight (the USA)

--------

"It´s an awesome manicure :)" Lady Pink (Romania)
--------

"Personally, I don't like the shape of the nails but I love the nail art she made.  The mani is very luxurious and feminine." Angeles (Spain)

 ***

The winner is: --- kleopatre (19 valid votes)

2nd and 3rd prize go to: Orlica (11 valid votes) and Enamel (10 valid votes)
Congrats!

Here is the link to all the entries.

I really liked them all.

***

As I promised, eight of the voters (only with the valid votes) are going to win a lip gloss from Virtual.

Tomorrow I will let you know who is going to receive a lip gloss.

 Be patient! :)

The last red mani for now.

The last Sensique's red combined with BM design.

I generally like the final result and the design itself.

Although, I don't know what it represents..

it looks like a kind of thread to me..
