I looked at my calendar this morning and it hit me - it's only 4 days to Christmas, and I'm not feeling it at all! So I had to at least put something christmasy on my nails. I remembered a gold foil polish I bought last week, dug it up and put it on. I was shocked, it's THE perfect gold foil! It's a cheapass polish from KIK (a textile discount store), but it's great! It's a one coater, and it's not all gold, it's got tiny silver and copper stuff in it too, just to liven it up. I really love it! In the pics it's without top coat (because I ran out of SV:( ).









See the macro shot? Amazing!

Loooooooove! Two coats, crappy pics. This is an old set of pics, taken at night under my desk lamp. I just had to post them anyway, I remembered how much I love this polish. It's a dark olive base with gold shimmer. Love, again. The tip wear is after a couple of days wear, so yay for that too. And konading is done with Essence Stampy polish in white.

So, my camera is still not working, I'm waiting for my scolarship to came to get it fixed. Luckily, I have quite some old mani pics on my external disc, but it was lost... And today, I found it, so you can expect posts from me again:)

I can't remember when I wore this, I just remember I was totally unhappy with it. It took three coats, but I don't like the consistency, it was weird somehow.
Another thing is the colour, I find it very unflattering with my skin tone. And the glittery stuff that's going on is sort of like vomit:( I'm very sorry about this polish, because on other blogger's swatches it looks great. Ah well, you can't have everything I guess:)

I don't think I've ever written about my mom. She's really into nail polish too, but never admits it. She comes into my living room and takes a long time to pick a polish from my collection, and then acts like a little child when painting:) And usually she picks up polishes "for me" and then I store them in my collection and she uses them:) Because "she's not really that into polishing her nails".... :)

This is one of those polishes, of course. Three coats, a classic silvery gold colour.

I have another bunch of Catrice polishes from the 60 seconds Nail couture line. It's just my luck that they've discontinued the line when I fell in love with it... But anyway, my mini haul was sent to my by the super-nice Mamy of Parokeets.

Today I'm wearing Nougat Praline. It's one of those polishes that are subtle, but in a way also great. A lovely nougaty-pinky colour with teeny tiny golden shimmer. I also love the application. Two coats, great consistency, even greater brush. Love it, and I totally recommend you grab any polish from this line if you have the luck to see them somwhere, because I haven't found a single one that dissapointed me so far.

Again, no sunny pics, but I managed to get one sort of ok pic in natural light:

And macro under artificial light:

O znamki Joy sem že pisala. Zadnjič, ko sem brskala po njihovi košari, sem odkrila tale odtenek. Duochrome, osnova mirna roza, zlati odsevi. Nanaša se lepo, očitno so z novimi odtenki tudi malo spremenili konsistenco laka in pa čopič. Tudi nad sušenjem sem bila presenečena. Priporočam! Slike so posnete po dnevu in pol po aplikaciji, tako da so vidni prvi znaki obrabe:(

I wrote about Joy polishes before. But recently, as I was going through their basket, I found some new, duochrome polishes. This is one of them - softly pink with golden reflections. The application was good, the thickness just right. They obviously changed the formula a bit, and also added some new colours. I strongly recommend it! I took the pictures a day and a half after application, so you can see the first sighns of wear:(
