Chic reloaded

Hi there!

You didn't think I forgot you!? I haven't, I was just otherwise engaged. But, now I'm here
Before I broke some of my nails I manage to do some swatches, this is one of them.
Niste valjda mislile da sam vas zaboravila!? Ma nisam, samo sam bila zauzeta nekim drugim stvarima. Ali, sad sam opet tu .
Prije no što sam slomila pokoji noktić, uspjela sam (za divno čudo) odraditi i par swatcheva. Evo jednog od njih.





This beauty is essence 'chic reloaded'. Formula is great, it applies flawless, after two coats it looks perfect, it's very pigmented so if you're careful one coat will do, the brush is great, drying time not bad... on pics you see two coats without topcoat. It's duochrome polish with purple to green colors. I heard that this is dupe of 'where's the party?' but let me reassure you.
Ovaj ljepotan je essenceov 'chic reloaded'. Formula je super, aplikacija bez mane, nakon dva sloja izgleda savršeno, baš je pigmentiran i ako ste pažljive mogao bi vam i jedan sloj biti dovoljan, četkica je super, sušenje isto tako... na fotkama su ipak dva sloja bez nadlaka. Radi se o duchrome laku s ljubičasto-zelenim spektrom boja. Čula sam da bi mogao biti duplić 'where's the party' ali baš i nije.



On these pics you see 'chic reloaded' on middle finger and pinkie, and 'where's the party' on pointer and ring finger. 'Chic reloaded' has much better formula, 'where's the party''s first coat is almost transparent but after the second coat it looks ok... but the duochrome effect is more visible on 'where's the party'. I must say that catching the duochrome effect is really nightmare, but in real life it's quite visible, even on 'chic reloaded' which you can't see on pics at all. These are definitely not dupes... if you're purple lover you can have them both. If you want better formula, go for 'chic reloaded', if you want the duochrome effect to be really noticeable, find yourself 'where's the party'. 
Na gornjim fotkama vidite 'chic reloaded' na srednjem i malom prstu, a 'where's the party' na kažiprstu i prstenjaku. 'Chic reloaded' ima bolju formulu, 'where's the party'jev prvi sloj je skoro proziran ali nakon drugog djeluje puno bolje... no duochrome efekt je uočljiviji na 'where's the party'. Moram se potužiti da je hvatanje duochrome efekta zbilja noćna mora, iako je uživo baš vidljiv, čak i na 'chic reloaded' koji se na fotkama jedva vidi. Definitivno nisu duplići... ali ako ste ljubitelj ljubičastih tonova slobodno uzmite oba. Ako mislite da je formula važnija, uzmite 'chic reloaded' a ako vam je bitnije da se duochrome efekt bolje vidi, nađite si bočicu 'where's the party'.

Thanks for stopping by, Žana

Genius In The Bottle


Hi my friends!

I have a real treat for you today! I know you've already seen this one, but not on my nails. It's Catrice's 'Genius In The Bottle', fabulous duochrome, Chanel's 'Peridot' dupe. I once read that the duochromes look the best when layered over black... so I did that - two coats over black, with topcoat.
Na redu je prava poslastica! Znam da ste ovog već svi vjerojatno vidjeli, ali ne i na mojim noktima. To je Catrice 'Genius In The Bottle', fantastičan duochrome, duplić Chanelovog Peridot-a. Jednom sam pročitala da duochromi najbolje izgledaju preko crnog laka, pa sam ga tako i nalakirala - dva sloja preko crnog, s nadlakom. 







The play of light on this polish is really something... when I started taking pics I just couldn't stop. After that I had to sit down and stare in my nails, I was bewitched... Well, after an hour, I decided to do something on it. The result is not so great, but I'll post it here anyway. 
Igra svjetlosti na ovom laku je stvarno nešto... kad sam krenula s fotkanjem nisam mogla stati. Nakon toga sam morala sjesti i buljiti u nokte, začarali su me... No, nakon sata, odlučila sam da ne bi bilo loše dodati još nešto. Rezultat i nije tako sjajan, ali evo ga. 




Too many pics? Noooooo, just enough
Previše fotki? Ma neeeee, tek dovoljno 

Till the next time we meet... love, Žana
