nivea pure diamond collection (+ h23)

. Thursday, November 26, 2009

yesterday I found a new nivea display called diamond collection, with 3 autumnally shades of polish. one was a berry pink, one was a darker nude/beige and one was a reddish brown. that was the one I chose, because I already have polishes very similar to the others, and 10€ (15$) for one bottle of drugstorepolish is not exactly cheap, right?


berrycharms

berry charms is a medium redtoned brown creme. in some lighting it looks pinktoned. the formula was thick and sticky, so it was difficult to apply. I thought I would like this one more, but it’s to warm for my skintone.

I added some china glaze magic matte topcoat and stamped with h23 and china glaze cherish.

I've had some readers requests if there was any difference between those 2 matte finishing topcoats. and in short: no there is no difference. they look the same, they smell the same, they dry in the same time and they achieve the same flat looking finish:



index + ring: essie, middle + pinkie: china glaze


and here's an autumnally stamping using p18 and konad gold on zoya kalista

bb couture part 2 - midnight malibu & dragon's breath

da ich krank bin spare ich mir langes geschwafel und gehe gleich zu den bildern über.
because I'm sick I'll skip the gibberish and switch over to the pics right away.


midnight malibu



schöööön! es sieht wie violett in der flasche aus, aber es ist ein dunkles blau mit tonnenweise violettem, silbernem und türkisem glitter. der lack sieht wirklich wie ein sternenklaren nachthimmel aus. absolut traumhaft! 2 coats, benötigt topcoat.
loooovely! it looks like a purple in the bottle, but it's a deep blue with tons of purple, silver and turquoise glitter.this shade looks like a starlit night sky. it's absolutely gorgeous! 2 coats. needs topcoat.


dragon's breath



dunkles pink mit haufenweise pinkem, blauem und silbernem glitter. ich bin mir nicht ganz sicher, ob mir diese farbe gefällt. ich bin ja nicht so der pinktyp. aber mit dem ganzen glitter hat der lack schon etwas! und er ist auch sehr herbstlich. 2 coats + topcoat.
dark pink with loads of pink, blue and silver glitter. I'm not sure, if I like the shade. I'm not the pink-gal, but with all the glitter it's still cool. and it's an autumn-shade. 2 coats + topcoat.
dragon's breath ist wesentlich flüssiger als midnight malibu, wodurch man beim auftragen vorsichtiger sein muss. sonst läuft der lack in alle ritzen und ist kaum wieder rauszubekommen. pinsel waren beide ok.
dragon's breath is much more runny than midnight malibu, which made application a bit tricky. you have to be careful not to paint your cuticles accidentally, because it's very hard to get rid of again! brushes were ok.


matte finish over glitter
l-r essie matte about you, bb couture matte finish, orly matte top

wie angekündigt habe ich den bb couture matte finish über einem der glitterlacke getestet. erstaunlicherweise war der unterschied zu den anderen matte tcs geringer als bei den creme-lacken.
as announced I testet the bb couture matte finish on one of the glitters. to my surprise the difference between the matte tc's was lesser than on the creme-shades.

heute habe ich doch kurzerhand eine schicht gold sparkle über die gestrige maniküre gelegt. das ist also gold sparkle auf amethyst sparkle auf s-he 464. das gold hat den violetten glimmer in einen multicolor glimmer verwandelt! das ist einfach nur geil!

today I spontaniously layered a coat of gold sparkle on the manikure of yesterday. so it's gold sparkle on amethyst sparkle on s-he 464. the gold turned the purple glimmer into a multicolored glimmer! this is just fu**ing gorgeous!




edit: und weil so schön war hab ich noch eine schicht matte about you draufgepinselt. ich finde, das kann durchaus mit den OPI suedes mithalten!
and then I added a coat of matte about you. doesn't it look like the OPI suedes?
