Ruffian Manicure

Danas ću vam pokazati ruffian manikir koji sam nosila zadnjih nekoliko dana. Vjerujem da svi znate šta je ruffian i kako se radi, ali evo jedan fantastičan tutorial sa Lacquerized bloga. Ono što vam treba za ovaj manikir su dva laka i jako mirna ruka :). Ja sam, naravno, koristila Flormar lakove i to: Flormar Neon N002 i Flormar Spring & Summer 2012  #436. Mirnu ruku, nažalost, nisam imala :D.

Today I'm going to show you ruffian manicure I was wearing for the last few days. I believe you all know what is it and how you can make it, but here's one awesome tutorial from Laquerized blog. For this manicure you will need two nail polishes and a very steady hand :). I used Flormar nail polishes: Flormar Neon N002 and Flormar Spring & Summer 2012  #436. Steady hand, unfortunately, I didn't have :D

Dotting manicure with Flormar 2012

U ovom postu ću vam pokazati još jedan Flormar iz Summer & Spring 2012 kolekcije, a pošto mi je nekako dosadno nositi sam lak odlučila sam da po prvi put pokušam sa tačkicama. U kući imam samo jednu tačkalicu (essence) i nikada prije je nosim koristila, osim za water marble.

In this post I'll show you another Flormar Spring & Summer 2012 nail polish. These days I don't like wearing a simple polished nails, so I decided to decorate it with some dots. I have only one dotting tool (by essence) and I never used it before, except for water marble. 

Flormar 2012

U prošlom postu sam spomenula kako je u naš grad stigla Flormar kolekcija lakova za proljeće/ljeto 2012, a i koristila sam jedan od njih za manikir. Danas ću vam pokazati jedan od onih koje sam dobila na poklon, a koji mi je na prvi pogled zapao za oko. Moram opet da spomenem da bih bila jako sretna kada bi Flormar svojim lakovima dao imena, jer ih svakako zaslužuju :D Uglavnom, ovaj put Flormar 2012 br.444.

In my last post I mentioned how we got Flormar 2012 spring/summer collection, and I used one of them for my last manicure. Today I am going to show you one of those I got as a gift. I must mention, again, I would be very happy when Flormar would give their polish names because these beauties deserve them :D Look at this lovely fuchsia nail polish, no. 444 (Flormar 2012).

Flormar 2012 & Braided nails

Stigli su nam Flormar 2012 Spring & Summer lakovi!!! Vidjela sam ih prije nekoliko dana u Tempu na Flormar štandu i odmah uzela dva komada. Za manikir koji ću vam danas pokazati sam koristila jedan od njih: Flormar 446. Divna krem nijansa izmedju ljubičaste i plave, savršeno se maže i dovoljan je jedan sloj za potpunu pokrivenost (ja uvijek stavljam dva, iz navike :)). Pored ovog laka, za braided akcent nokat, koristila sam i Gabrini Elegant 396 i Flormar 313. 

We got Flormar 2012 Spring and Summer nail polishes!!! I saw them a few days ago, and bought two pieces right away. For the manicure I'm going to show you today, I used one of them: Flormar 446. It's a beautiful cream color between blue and purple (blurple :)) with perfect  formula and one coat is enough for full coverage. Beside this nail polish, I used Gabrini Elegant 396 and Flormar 313 for my accent nail. 

Harlequin Hardware Manicure in my way :)

Prvo da vas upozorim na dužinu posta i količinu fotografija u njemu, pa da krenemo dalje na manikir :) Vjerovatno ste ranije čuli za ovo, ali evo da ukratko napišem o čemu se radi. Harlequin Hardware Maniicure je prvi put urađena za potrebe Diego Binetti show-a (kolekcija proljeće/ljeto 2012), a uradila ju je profesionalna šminkerica i manikirka Candice Manacchio koja je inače ambasadorica CND brenda čiji su lakovi i korišteni za manikir. Link na slike koje su mi poslužile kao ispiracija.

Pošto nisam bila sigurna na koji način je ona uradila Harlequin Hardware, odlučila sam da pokušam na svoj način.

First, let me warn you :) This is going to be one long and "picture overload" post! Now, let's move on to the manicure. Probably you've heard of this type of manicure before, but I think it's good to mention what is all about. Harlequin Hardware manicure first time showed up on Diego Binetti Show for spring/summer 2012, and it was done by professional nail & makeup artist Candice Manacchio, which is also a CND's ambassador. She used CND polishes for the manicure. Link to the inspiration pictures.

Since I didn't know how she did the Harlequin Hardware, I decided to do it in my way.

Gradient nails

U današnjem postu ću vam pokazati gradient koji trenutno imam na noktima. Mislim da sam ga radila i ranije dok nisam imala blog, ali ovo je prvi s kojim sam zadovoljna. Doduše, prelazi su mogli biti malo blaži :D

Koristila sam, kao i u većini slučajeva, Flormar lakove. Oba laka ste već imali priliku vidjeti na blogu, a radi se o nijansama N009 i 408.

Today I'll show you gradient I'm currently wearing on my nails. I think I've done it earlier until I had a blog, but this is the first one I'm satisfied with. Well, it could be better "blended" :D

I used, as usual, Flormar nail polishes. Both of them you could see in my previous posts, and the shades are N009 and 408.

Check matte nails

Dugo sam bila u potrazi za mat nadlakom. Nažalost, propustila sam priliku da kupim Catrice ili Essence o kojima sam čitala dosta recenzija, pa sam tražila medju ostalim brendovima koji su mi dostupni. Prije nekoliko dana, našla sam ga na polici Miss Sporty kozmetike pod nazivom Check Matte. Jedva sam čekala da ga probam, pa sam izabrala ovu kombinaciju ispod.

I've been looking for a matte top coat for a long time. Unfortunately, I missed the chance when Catrice and Essence had it so I had to look among the other drugstore brands. A few days ago, I found it on Miss Sporty cosmetics shelf under name Check Matte. I couldn't wait to try it out, so I chose this combination bellow.

Blue holo

Nisam bila kod kuće nekoliko dana i bila sam bez interneta pa nisam ništa postala proteklih dana. A moram priznati da nisam bila ni pretjerano kreativna pa evo već pet dana nosim ovu kombinaciju na noktima.

I was on a short trip last few days and I had no internet connection so there were no posts from me. And, I have to admit that I wasn't creative at all so I'm wearing this combination for a five days.
