Kleancolor haul
Stigli suuuuu! :x I mene je uhvatila Kleancolor manija pa naručih par komada. I istina, smrde grozno, ali bar su svi u komadu i izgledaju predivno! :D Nokti su mi u komi ali nadam se da ću uspjet pofotkat koji uskoro...

Nubar Indigo Illusion (pic heavy)
Jesam li već spomenula koliko obožavam Nubar lakove? :D Formulu, bočicu, pregenijalne boje... Baš svaki put se oduševim. :x. Očekivala sam tipičnu duochrome formulu - 100 slojeva, sušenje satima (kao s npr. Orly Fantasea), frosty sedefasti finiš, a dobila potpuno suprotno - prekrivanje skoro pa u jednom sloju, brzo sušenje i fenomenalnu boju (njih nekoliko, zapravo). Indigo illusion je neobične prljavo-plave boje koja se prelijeva konstantno u lila a u zeleno pod nekim kutevima i na toplijem svjetlu. Zeleni ton baš se i ne vidi na mojim pljosnatim noktima (Scrangie je super uspjela uloviti tri boje odjednom). Naručila sam ga tek nedavno iako mi je bio na wishlisti već dvije godine (s nekoliko prekida) jer sam zaključila da mi duochrome lakovi najčešće ne stoje - nekako mi čudno nokti izgledaju s njima, ali mislim da je to više s tamnim lakovima tako da njih, kako god mi fenomenalno izgledali, više ne kupujem. I ovdje mi nokti izgledaju nekako lopatasto ali mislim da je to zbog čudne dužine, slično kao što mi se kosa kad naraste do ramena izvrće prema van :D. Tu su dva tanka sloja i sloj INM Out the door nadlaka. OK, dosta blebetanja, slijede fotke....
Did I mention how much I adore Nubar? :D Everything - the formula, the bottle, the gorgeous colors... They just surprise me every time :x. When I ordered this one, I was expecting the usual duochrome formula - 100 layers, painfully slow drying time (*cough* Orly Fantasea *cough*), a streaky frosty finish... but what I got was quite the opposite - almost a one-coater, fast drying and a gorgeous color (colors, actually)! Indigo Illusion is an amazing dusty blue to lilac duochrome that shifts to green in certain angles and lights. The green isn't really visible in my pics cause my nails are a bit flat (Scrangie managed to capture all three colors at once). Indigo Illusion was on and off my wishlist for two years but I just recently ordered it. The reason was my love and hate relationships with duochromes - they usually make my nails look weird, but recently I realized it was mostly with dark duochromes so I finally decided to get this beauty. There are two thin coats in these pics plus a layer of INM Out the door. OK, enough with the babble, here are the pics...

OPI Houston, we have a purple
Ni ne znam kad sam zadnji put naručila a kamoli fotkala neki OPI lak pa je vrijeme da to ispravim :). Houston, we have a purple (ja bih ga prije nazvala Houston, we have a magenta) predivan je ciklamasti jelly koji na noktima izgleda tekuće, sjajno, kao da ste prste umočili u sirup od malina =P~! Finiš se najbolje vidi na zadnjoj slici, u hladu, iako ni ta fotka ne dočarava potpuno ovu divotu tako da ću morati ponoviti swatcheve. Na fotkama su tri tanka sloja, bez nadlaka. Taman mi je ponestalo mog najdražeg brzosušećeg nadlaka pa mi se Houston malo izgužvao po noći ali ništa strašno što bi se vidjelo uživo, samo na makro fotkama. Formula je kao i kod većine opića standardno dobra. OPI ovaj finiš naziva sorbetom, ja bih rekla da je poboljšana verzija jelly finiša. Neki moji jelly lakovi kad se osuše djeluju lagano mat pa najčešće trebaju sloj nadlaka, što nije slučaj s ovim lakićem. Čak i bez nadlaka izgleda kao staklo. :x Houston je dio ovogodišnje proljetne Texas kolekcije.

I don't even remember the last time I ordered, let alone swatched an OPI so it was about time to rectify that :). Houston, we have a purple (I'd probably call it Houston, we have a magenta) is a gorgeous magenta jelly that looks almost liquid on the nail, like having raspberry syrup on your nails =P~. The last picture shows the finish best, although I will have to redo the swatches because it still doesn't come close to showing it's true beauty. There are three thin coats in these pics, no tc. I just ran out of my favorite fast-drying top coat so Houston wrinkled a bit during the night, but it isn't visible IRL, just in macro shots. As with most OPI polishes I own, the formula is fine. OPI calls this a sorbet finish, but I'd say it's an improved jelly formula. Some of my other jellies usually dry to a slightly matte finish so they usually need a top coat, but not this one. It looks so glossy even without a top coat :x. Houston, we have a purple was released as part of this year's Spring Texas collection.
