Face of Australia - Polyester Girl

Do you know how time consuming it is placing glitter on your nails? Those two accent nails from the other day took nearly half an hour for me... And the glitter placing was not even "that" dense!!!

So, when it was time to take off my mani, I somehow decided to keep the accents... LOL I know, lazy me... :)

It was a sunny day, and I was wearing a pink outfit, so I thought why not a pink mani??? And I grabbed my first Australian polish Briana sent me... :)

The brand is Face of Australia and the polish is Polyester Girl, a bright neon pink!!! It applied nicely, even and smooth... But I think it dried to a semi matte finish. I don't know, maybe it was me, but it really looked satin like. So I gave it a shiny look with Seche and stamped my pinkie with an Essence plate I recently bought...






What do you think of "Mani Saving" mani???? LOL
Do you have any Australian polish?

Monkey See Monkey Do - ChitChatNails

Here's another Monkey See Monkey Do post for today... Or should I call it an inspirational post?

Anyway, I must admit I'm a big fan of Marta from ChitChatNails. I adore her nails and her designs... so when I saw THIS design she did, I loved it so much so I decided to give it a try...

I started with 2 coats of NYC Raindrops... Then sponged some China Glaze Angel Wings close to the base of my nails... Then using Konad m84 and Essence stampy polish in black, I added the flowers... For the accent nail, I used Golden Rose black and added the golden glitter from the Essence nail art decoration kit...







So, what do you think? Looks so elegant to me... :)

Essence Superheroes TE

OK! Essence has done it again!

Yesterday an e-mail from Essence came showing the new Trend Edition called Superheroes... Wow!!!

They say that these product will be available in November 2013 and I just pray that they arrive in Turkey... We seem to get most of the new stuff so I hope these will show up as well... Otherwise, I'll have to find a mule!!! :P

Here are the new products!!!

The polishes are amazing!!! Holo, flakie, texture, thermal, duochrome, metallic!!! I personally plan to try them all, although gold is not my fisrt choice, I'll give it a try as well... I'm not that fond of duochromes but the bottle picture looks nice... But thermal, sand, flakie and holo... Bring them on... :)





Look at this amazing cosmetic bag... I have a little purse to match with this... :)


A brush to use for glitter placing...



3 effect pots!!! One holographic glitter and two flakies... I'm not that good at glitter placing and I think I'll pass these...


I can get this nail polish remover just for its color! :)

 And stickers... Honestly, if you are stamping, you don't need stickers... But my daughter will surely want the one with the stars... :)




So... November... Long time!!!!

Which ones do you think you'll end up buying?

Textured Heaven!!! - Part 5 - Golden Rose

Things have been quite hectic this week in the household! Lots of errands to do and lots of things to be done... So I'm sorry, I've been late with my post... :)

I hope things will settle down next week, so I will be able to return to my blog and paint my nails!!! (finally) :)

Anyway, moving on with the texture trend with Golden Rose Holiday Collection.... The widest texture collection so far... They have 31 yes 31 textured polishes in Holiday Collection!!!! Well, I own only 15 of them... What a shame!!! :)

Formula wise, these are much more opaque and have a relatively shorter drying time... Most of them are full of glitter and there are also neon glitter colors!!!! (I own only one)

I'll leave you alone with pictures... :)
