China Glaze - Sun Worshiper

A venit timpul sa va arat cea mai minunata, senzationala, fantastica oja neon din lume: Sun Worshiper de la China Glaze! Nu exista cuvinte care sa arate cat de mult pot sa iubesc nuanta asta!

It is time to show you the most wonderful, sensational, fantastical nail polish in the world: China Glaze's Sun Worshiper! There are no words to express how much a truly love this shade!
Unii considera aceasta nuanta ca fiind portocalie dar pentru mine este cel mai aprins galben posibil! Poti opri traficul sau dirija avioane cu oja asta pe unghii! Am fost oprita pe strada si intrebata ce minunatie de oja port si mi s-a intamplat ca persoane cu care purtam o discutie sa se opreasca in mijlocul unei fraze pentru ca nu se puteau concetra din cauza unghiutelor mele stralucitoare! Eu prefer sa o port aplicand 2 straturi peste o baza de alb dar devine opaca si din patru straturi fara baza. Ca majoritatea ojelor neon se usuca foarte repede dar mat, asa ca un top coat este necesar pentru a o face lucioasa. Face parte din colectia Poolside din 2010, ca si Flip Flop Fantasy.

Some consider this shade an orange but for me it's the brightest yellow ever! You can stop traffic or direct aircrafts with this polish on your nails! People stopped me on the street and asked me what is this marvelous shade i'm wearing and friends i was having a conversation with were stopping mid-sentence because they were unable to focus due to my radiant nails! I prefer wearing it in two coat over a white base but it also gets opaque in 4 coats on its own. Like most neon polishes it dries really fast but to a matte finish so a top coat is necessary for making it shiny. It's part of the Poolside collection from 2010, just like Flip Flop Fantasy.

Sally Hansen - Lagoon

Lagoon face parte din colectia Complete Salon Manicure de la Sally Hansen, lansata in vara lui 2010.

Lagoon is part of the Complete Salon Manicure Collection, released by Sally Hansen in the summer of 2010.

Este o oja turcoaz ce se usuca cu un finish undeva intre shimmer si metalic. Imi place la nebunie! Pensula plata si lata face ca aplicarea sa fie foarte usoara si devine opaca in doar doua straturi, fara a lasa urme. Poate fi considerata si un duochrome deoarece are reflexe fie verzi, fie albastre, in functie de lumina, dar este intotdauna foarte stralucitoare!

It's a turquoise nail polish that dries somewhere between a shimmer and metallic finish. I love it! The flat and wide brush makes applying it a breeze and it's opaque in two coats, without laving any brushstrokes. It can also be considered a duochrome because it leans either green or blue, depending on the lighting, but it's always extremely bright!

OPI - I Brake For Manicures

I Brake For Manicures face parte din colectia OPI - Touring America din toamna lui 2011.

I Brake For Manicures is part of the OPI - Touring America Collection from the Fall of 2011.

Culoarea este dificil de descris si de fotografiat, probabil cel mai bine descrisa ca pruna, cu inflexiuni gri, dar in lumina artificiala poate parea chiar maro. Desi este o nuanta inchisa, nu pare niciodata neagra. Textura este crema si daca aveti putina grja la aplicare poate fi opaca dintr-un singur strat. Trebuie sa reunosc ca nu am fost prea incantata de culoarea din sticluta dar pe unghii parca prinde viata! Se usuca repede, rezista cateva zile fara probleme si e perfecta pentru tomana.

The color is quite difficult to describe and photograph, but it seems to be a deep plum with dusky inflections, but in artificial light it can even seem brown. Although it's a dark shade, it never looks black. Texture wise it's a creme and if you're a little careful when applying, it can be opaque in one coat. I must admit i wasn't all that excited when i saw the bottle, but on the nails it comes alive! It dries pretty fast, no chipping for a few days and it's perfect for autumn.
