Recent manicures

Ker že zelo dolgo nisem ničesar objavila, sem se odločila, da vam danes pokažem, kaj je zadnje čase krasilo moje nohte.

I have not published any of my recent manicures in a while now. And I have decided to show you some of the ones that I liked the most today.

Guest post: Raggio di Luna Nails

Danes nas bo s svojo manikuro razveselila Raggio di Luna z bloga Raggio di Luna Nails. Raggio se ukvarja z okraševanjem nohtov na vse možne načine in ko mislim, da sem videla že vse, me spet preseneti s kakšno popolnoma novo idejo! Pa poglejmo, kaj je pripravila za nas.

Today we will be delighted by manicure from Raggio di Luna from friends Raggio di Luna Nails blog. Raggio is engaged to decorate nails in every possible way, and when I think I've seen all she surprises me again with some brand new idea! Here's what she had prepared for us.

Oggi sono ospite di Kvacka, la mia carissima cugina e amica blogger.
Per lei ho preparato una manicure che ho chiamato “Dot-crossroad”. La particolarità di questa manicure è che l’ho creata utilizzando gli smalti ricevuti nel mio pacchettino sorpresa avuto da Kvacka a gennaio.
Kvacka, grazie sia per il pacchettino con i bellissimi smalti che mi hai mandato, sia per avermi ospitato sul tuo blog. Spero di ripetere questa eccitante esperienza al più presto possibile! :-)

Danas sam gost kod Kvačke, moje drage rođake i prijateljice blogerke.
Za nju sam pripremila jednu manikuru koju sam nazvala „Dot-crossroad“. Zanimljivost ove manikure je da sam je napravila koristeći lakove za nokte iz mog paketića iznenađenja dobijenog od Kvačke u januaru.
Kvačka, hvala i za paketić sa prekrasnim lakovima koje si mi poslala, a i za to što si mi pružila priliku da gostujem na tvom blogu. Nadam se da ćemo uskoro ponoviti ovo uzbudljivo iskustvo! :-)

Today I am the guest of Kvacka, my dear cousin and blogger friend.
For her I created a manicure called “Dot-crossroad”. It is particular because I created it using nail polishes from the surprise package which I got from Kvacka in January.

Spectraflair frankens!

Ekstremno prijazna Cathy z bloga More Nail Polish nama je omogočila, da sva v svojo zbirko dodali nekaj gramov pigmenta Spectraflair. Seveda sem takoj zavihala rokave! :)

Extremely nice Cathy from More Nail Polish blog made it happen for us - she helped us to add few grams of Spectraflair pigment to our collections. Of course I started to franken right away! :)

Zaenkrat sem ustvarila štiri zmešančke. Prvi je modre barve, ki pa je kar precej prosojen, zato sem ga slojila čez eno plast polnoprekrivnega modrega laka Jonca s foil finišem, ki žal nima niti imena niti številke.

I have created four frankens until now. First of them is blue, but it is very sheer, so I layered it over one coat of fully opaque blue foil finish Jonca nail polish, which sadly has no name or number.

Sestavine: Essence Colour & Go Absolute Pure (prozoren lak), 5 kapljic Jonca modrega foil finiš lakca, 3 kapljice China Glaze Rodeo Fanatic in Spectraflair pigment.

Ingredients: Essence Colour & Go Absolute Pure (clear polish), 5 drops of Jonca blue foil finish nail poish, 3 drops of China Glaze Rodeo Fanatic and Spectraflair pigment.

Pri naslednjem zmešančku sploh nisem komplicirala. V prozoren lakec Essence Colour & Go Absolute Pure sem dodajala SF pigment, dokler nisem bila zadovoljna z mavrico. Na fotografijah so štiri plasti brez podlaka in nadlaka.

I did not complicate with my next franken at all. I was adding SF pigment into clear polish Essence Colour & Go Absolute Pure until I was satisfied with the rainbow. There are four coats on the photos without base and top coats.

Seveda mi prekriven moder holografski zmešanček ni dal miru, zato sem ustvarila še tega. Na fotografijah sta dve plasti, čeprav bi bila dovolj samo ena, če bi bila bolj previdna pri nanašanju.

But I still wanted to have an opaque blue holographic nail polish, so I made that one too. There are two coats on the photos, but I could get away with just one if I was more careful with the application.

Sestavine: Joy - 389 (temnno moder lak z jelly finišem) in Spectraflair pigment.

Ingredients: Joy - 389 (dark blue nail polish with jelly finish) and Spectraflair pigment.

Trenutno zadnji izmed zmešančkov pa je nastal iz Essence Choose Me turkiznega laka z večjimi zlatimi bleščicami, ki sem mu dodala še nekaj SF pigmenta.

The last franken for now is made from Essence Choose Me torquoise nail polish with bigger golden glitter and some SF pigment as well.

Za konec pa naj vam pokažem še kombinacijo dveh lakcev, po vrhu prekrivnega modrega frenkija sem namreč nanesla še eno plast turkiznega frenkija. Ta manikura je trenutno moja najljubša, katera pa je najbolj všeč vam?

And for the end I would like to show you my favourite manicure - over an opaque blue franken I did one coat of the torquoise one. And which one do you like the most?

Tale Spectraflair pigment je res super, zdaj sploh ne čakam več na nove kolekcije in upam še na kakšnega luštnega holota. Če so nas proizvajalci lakov v tej smeri zadnja leta razočarali in puščali na cedilu, si lahko same pomagamo do novih prekrasnih mavričnih lepotcev! :P ;D Ali ste tudi ve že preiskusile ta pigment? Kakšne pa so vaše izkušnje?

This Spectraflair pigment is really really great! I don't even wait for any new collection of holographic nail polishes. Those nail polish companies have let us down for so many years and now we can make our own rainbow beauties! How cool is that?? :P ;D Did you try this pigment too? Please, share your experiences with me! :)

Pics heavy - random manicures, part 1

Imam kar precej fotografij manikur, ki jih še nisem uspela objaviti. Mogoče bodo komu prišle prav, zato jih bom objavila v nekaj sklopih. Če vas kakšen izmed lakec posebej zanima, me povprašajte in vam bom v komentarjih rade volje odgovorila. :)

I have tons of photographs of manicures that I haven't published yet and I wore them in the past. I hope someone might find them useful and that's why I will publish them in few parts. If you need more information about particular polish, please ask and I will gladly answer on all your questions in the comments. :)
