China Glaze - Riveting and Luxe&Lush

I give you today another one of the Hunger Games collection. I am talkin about Riveting, since Luxe & Lush you've already seen.

Riveting is a bright orange jelly base, with orange and yellow shimmer.
This has the power of a neon, and the finish of a shimmer. I applied 2 coats and it was perfectly opaque. The formula is great and I really love the way it suits my skin tone.

I applied one coat of Luxe&Lush , and one coat of top coat. Hope you like it! What polishes did you choose from the Hunger Games collection?

And bonus a picture of my rolled up cat.

 

My OPI stash

This is I think the biggest stash I have - about 50. This was the brand that got my obsession started. The first OPI nail polish I ever bought was You don't know Jaques. It was such a weird shade of nail polish, I had never seen something like it before. I tried it in the store, and I loved the way this weird shade looked on me.

 So here are the stash photos: check under the photo if you want to see their names.

BB Couture - Michael

I fell in love with BB Couture a while ago, but since here it costs too much to buy some. Delivery is super expensive from the sites that sell this brand, and you have to buy a few to get the price down by bottle, so you end up paying like 70$ for 5 bottles, which in my book is way too much.

So I got this for my birthday from my friend Cristina. Thank you Cristina!! Mouah!
This is one of my favourites. It's a dark blue base, with blue and purple small shimmer. It comes alive in the sunlight.

Application is just perfect, the brush could be better but, it's better than the one from China Glaze. This was two coats.:

China Glaze - Trendsetter and Luxe&Lush

Hey, hey, hey!!!
I have another China Glaze - Hunger Games collection , nail polish for you today.
This one is a very original color. I loved this collection, I found that there were many original shades.

It is a mustard yellow, with bright yellow flakies. The application was flawless on this one, and it lasted all weekend without any chips or tip wear.

I applied Luxe and Lush on top, and this one is a stunner! It's a clear base, with bits of holo foil in it, that have no exact shape of size. This one need a top coat because it renders the polish underneath a little dull.

 Here are the photos:

What I would wear -series 1 episode 2

Welcome to the second episode of the What I would wear series.
This is more of a casual outfit. And I also included accessories this time, because the last time I had forgotten.

I bought this shirt on Asos a week ago, and it was love at first site. I have been eyeballing it for a month, waiting for sales, and I finally got 40 % off.
So here is the info:
Shirt: Asos - it cost 29€ and it was originaly 41,51€. You can find it here.
Jeans: Zara - these are super comfy and you can get them in lots of different colors, and they were pretty cheap too - 25€. You can find them here I also have these in navy and green. I just love them.
Accessories: The ring was from H&M and it cost 4€, but I don't know if they sell it anymore. And the earrings were a present.
Shoes: - I bought these on sale from Spartoo.com and they were about 25€. The brand is Bronx, a brand I am very fond of, and have lots of shoes from. You can still find them here, but not for the same price.
Sweater: - I got this at New Look, it cost 35€, and I think they don't sell them anymore.

Essie - In stitches

Hello, hello!!
Missed you babies! I had almost no time for myself lately, so that explains the pause in blogging too.

Anyways I am back today with a gorgeous color - a brick red cream from Essie. I had already worn this, but forgot to take photos.

It is just the wright formula, and the application was easy. I applied two coats for perfect opacity. So I am in love with this color. I didn't expect to like it this much, but once on my fingers, it was love at first site. And I had no chips either, for like two days.

Sorry about the pictures, had no sun that day.

OPI - Jade is the new black

This is part of the permanent collection I think.

It's a dark green cream . I am not in love with this color, but I must admit it looks good on my short short nails. It applies very well and had absolutely no issues with it.

This is two coats, and I think I'm falling back in love with the color green. I had some nail polish go under my cuticule and couldn't clean that up so sorry for it.

OPI - Dutch'ya just love OPI

I ordered this around 2 months ago, but didn't get around to swatching it. I know I'm very late with this but I still love it. It's part of the Holland collection.

It is a purple cream base with bronze shimmer I would say. I just love the effect this has. Application was perfect, as is the brush. Two coats did the trick.

I just love this color, and I am sorry that my nails are still so small. The pictures were taken after two days from the application , so there's a little wear on the tips.

 

My Zoya stash

Hey everyone, I'm back with a new stash post.
Today you will see my Zoya stash. I don't own many, but I love each one of these polishes.

The Zoya site does not sell outside the US, so the only place to get my Zoya, is nailetc.com. I don't buy a lot of these because I find them pretty expensive, and I don't like the fact that they shrink with Seche Vite - my topcoat of choice.

I don't have any from their latest collections, because, I found that most of them were dupable, or already had some OPI that resembled.

So here are the photos, I also took photos of their labels so you can see which is which.

China Glaze - Smoke&Ashes

I just can't take my naked nails anymore. I don't care that they're ugly and small, I am doing them!

So here they are. I chose China Glaze Smoke and Ashes from the Hunger Games collection.
This is a black cream base, with small green glakes, that pass from yellow to green depending on the light.

It's an unique polish, and I am very glad I bought it. There are a few gems in this collection.
This one was opaque in 2 coats. The only thing about it is that even with top coat, it's not super shinny, it has kind of a gritty finish, but maybe it's just my stupid nails.
