Sponge attempt

I tried a sponge manicure using a light orange (apricot) and a grey polish.
The result:



Maybelline New York -  Nr. 795 Cloudy Grey

Rimmel London  I Love Lasting Finish "Fruities"- Nr. 53 Apricot Punch

Saturated Moyra (second favorite)

It has been a long time since I last brought some nail polish. To end this "sad"  period I brought a saturated mauve-pink Moyra (Nr. 56), Radiant Professional Nr. 178 and 3 other polishes which will follow in separate posts.

I have to say, that this Moyra is my second favorite polish shade (the first being Rimmel-Urban princess. You can see it here and here).



Moyra - Nr. 56




Radiant Professional - Nr. 178

The Radial polish, the one that I used as a top coat looks really nice on the nails. The only problem is that it dries veeery slow. It's annoying.

Yellow Flormar feat. Polka

The inspiration for my new nail design was the Avon Deanna purse and wallet:

Flormar Teal with Polka dots

As I promised I am back with the second polish. It is a teal color and has a very successful formula, one coat being enough. For making it more interesting I applied some white polka dots:

Cracked Apricot ( manicure upgrade )

After a few day I found my apricot manicure a little boaring so I have upgraded it using Alix Avien white cracking polish.

Apricot dream!

Sunday afternoon, as I woke up from my beauty sleep I wanted baaadly a light peachy colored polish! So we got in the car and drove to Polus Center (the biggest Mall of the city). I knew that I have once seen this color at the Flormar "island".

This is the piece of jewelry I brought for myself (I could not resist buying more than 1 bottle, so I got myself a teal color too, nr. 429. Post with it will follow soon):

 Flormar  - Nr. 376

Simple Natty

I have brought this polish for 3 RON (0.85 USD, 0.70 EUR). Although it was very cheap it behaves well on the nail (does not chip, does not color the nail-if no base coat is used) and became one of my favorite polishes and colors. It is hard to see on the pictures (you should look real close at the second picture, near the middle finger), but it has tiny tiny golden glitters in it. 

This is how it looks in shade:
