Summertime gradient

Hello!

I usually don't do gradients but when I do, I pick colors that are too similar for my camera to tell them apart. You're welcome :)
For the base I used Essence Off to Miami!, gorgeous bright coral which I love but my camera always freaks out with shades like this. Application was not the best, the polish is pretty thick yet still sheer. I believe it took two to three coats, depends on the nail because the polish is streaky and isn't self leveling. Then I used a kitchen sponge and sponged some Essence Naughty and pink! on the tips. The gradient was more noticeable in real life, I think the coral base was messing up my camera too much so it just gave up and was like fuck it, I'll make every color look the same.
Gradients are really easy and fun so I will do it again in the future, just with a bit more contrasting colors.

Golden rose Jolly jewels 107

Hello!

How is everybody? This is my last "old" post, photos I took before my nail broke and it got better so you can expect new and regular posts from now on :) That makes me really happy and I even included damage photos at the end of this post.
I was craving swimming lately and this polish is perfect cause it reminds me of the sea.
This is Golden rose Jolly jewels in 107, too bad this beauty doesn't have a name. I got it from Gin from her trip to Bosnia. Jolly jewels is a really good collection, too bad it isn't available in Slovenia. They're such great quality, I love the brush and the glitters are really packed. On photos I have on one coat of 107 over a blue base (Essence Let's get lost). You could probably get it opaque in 2 to 3 coats.
In my opinion this combination of blue glitters is just perfect <3





 

My nail broke while wearing this mani, I know we all love pics like this :) Please ignore how horribly stained my nails are.

11 facts about me TAG

Hello!

It's been a while since I did any tag. Long long time ago I was tagged by the gorgeous Deja from Deja Zu. I f you haven't already, go check her blog. Its combination of all good thing: makeup, food and healthy living in general. Thank you again for this tag Deja *.*

So here we go, 11 facts about me:

1. In the past year I have developed migraines. Fucking yay :) Before I never had headaches, guess karma thinks I did something wrong. I had to stop eating broccoli, pistachios and totally quit drinking alcohol. Ironically I could live off those three things.

2. I am studying biology. I only have a few exams left and if all goes as planed, I'm going back to classes in October to get my Masters degree in molecular biology.

3. Since I have a lot of free time this year I have a "student" job at a call center. I work as a help line operator for customer support for a very large grocery store chain. It's a very funny job and some calls really brighten up my day but sometimes, you start losing hope in humanity just a little bit. Not all people are nice, there's a lot of mean and ignorant ones. Sometimes you just wanna tell them to go fuck themselves and hang up the phone on them but of course I can't do that :) You do get nerves of steel.

4. I can make a sexual reference out of anything. Can't help if I have a dirty sense of humor :)

5. I am a very picky eater but I also love eating french fries dipped in vanilla ice cream with fudge.

6. I am a very introverted person so I'm often taken as shy or bitchy/stuck up by people that don't know me that good.

7. I will spontaneously quote Mean girls.

8. I wear leggings as pants. Yes, I'm one of that jerks :)

9. There was a time when I had a side cut and dip dyed tips. Might sound weird but I think it looked good :)


10. My boyfriend calls me "the song master". I have a really good sound memory and I will remember a song even if I hear it only once (not just lyric parts, intros too).

11. When using public transportation I always pick the seats that are facing back in the opposite direction of moving (if you know what I mean, hope so) so I drive backwards. People usually don't like that cause it makes them sick so they don't sit next to me, which I like :)

That is all, hope you learned something new about me :) I tagged everyone who hasn't done this tag before.

Serbian taupe

Hello!

I was having a really hard time naming this post. This is a very "special" nail polish in my collection. I bought it in Serbia last year for about 30 cents. This poor bruised little guy was waiting for an owner for god knows how long. Doesn't have a name (or brand for what it's worth) but judging from the bottle shape it could be Golden rose. I don't know. And look at the handle :)  Taupey browns really aren't my color but I took it cause it really stood out. I couldn't just leave it there.
Two coats in this pictures, application wasn't the easiest but considering the stage of nail polish, it's OK :)

Missha Lucid nail polish Dazzling 06

Hello!

I finally joined the club of black/white glitter polish owners :) Instead of going indie I went on eBay and probably got the cheapest version. I know a lot of indie brands has it, in Slovenia you can also get L'oreal mini 5 ml polish for 5 euros (seriously?) but so does Missha for about 5 dollars, shipping included *wink wink*
It's beautiful and you don't need any fishing, the glitter is super dense. It's a mix of small white glitter, big square and hexagonal black and white glitter and black&white bars. It sounds super cluttered and tacky but because it's all in black and white, it works. 
This was one coat over Essie Topless&barefoot. I loved wearing this combination <3
