Essence "Wake Up" feat. NFU OH 51





Me wearing orange?, might be gettin' crazy...anyway, this caught my attention at the drawer for being bright and crisp.  Formula is amazing! with the right density to glide smoothly the polish onto the nail, basically no mistakes!, and since i couldn't decide between two colors, i opted for both.

Yo y el mamei...debo estar loca...pero me llamo a la atencion por su vivacidad. Lo primero que me vino en la mente quando lo vi, fue ese jugo de "naranja" que solia beber de niña.
la formula es estupenda, se aplica muy facilmente, y como no sabia por qual color decidirme, los use a ambos.

こんにちはみんな. わたしは オレンジ が へたですが これわ とても きれいてす
から 私はそれを持って幸せです。

Debo essere impazzita: io e l'arancione!, Mi ha colpito la vivacità del colore, ed é un bene in piu' la formula densa e scorrevole al punto giusto. E siccome non riuscivo a decidermi tra due colori, li porto entrambi.

Hallo.Orange gefelt es mir nicht aber dieser Nagellack ist sehr lebendig. In diesem Fall konnte ich nicht zwischen zwei Farben entscheiden, so dass ich beide tragen.

Je ne le croix pas mais...moi avec l'orange! mais il est tellement joli et vif que il me plait beaucoup. Et puis  il y a une formule magnifique, tres facile a utiliser.

How to: Smooth Glitter Manicure (finally...)






Good afternoon. I want to share with you how to obtain a glass like finish on your glitter manicures.
Once i was visiting Essence.com and out of curiosity i read the "better than gel nails" section and thought to myself that if these sealers are meant to smooth a fake nail tip, they could be good to smooth glitters too.
I got the sealers and put them as indicated by the brand: after my manicure was done, i applied the base sealer and then the top sealer.
OMG! it works, and with a very, very good result. Those top coat- sucker polishes have to surrender against this combo.
For the purpose of this post, pictures were taken about 15 hours after application, and as you can see the surface of the nail is smooth and shiny, just be carefull to spread each sealer evenly to avoid little rough spots. I've worn this combo for four days on top of very thirsty glitter polishes (Wet 'n Wild coloricon polishes) and the surface is still smooth, you can just refresh the glossy finish with your regular top coat.
You can apply Seche Vite right after the top sealer to speed up the drying process or you can leave it as is, either way you'll obtain a smooth, glass like glitter manicure. (These pictures are without any fast drying top coat on top of the sealers).

Essence- King Of Mints





































Another from Essence LE "You Rock". This is a dupe for Chanel's "Nouvelle Vague", it has a cute, subtle shimmer illuminating the polish. Love the color, but formula is too thick.

Otro de Essence que es un duplicado de algun famoso, en este caso Chanel "Nouvelle Vague". Me encanta el color, pero no la formula: muy espesa.

これは と Chanel ゛ンベル バグ゛ おなじ でず、でも この ゛エュセンス゛ は Chanel より  やすいです。

Un'altro gemello fatto da Essence: uguale a Chanel "Nouvelle Vague". Mi piace tanto il colore, peccato per la consistenza dello smalto: troppo densa.

Essence- Speed Of Light Blue






































One of my favorite colors: light blue. This one is a very light baby blue with a bluish hidden shimmer. What is the purpose of a shimmer if is, well, hidden? maybe help with the overall effect of the finish or make the polish more appealing when you see the bottle...in this case i don't care, i got a backup bottle because i like so much the color and a 5 ml bottle is too little.

Essence-Love,Peace And Purple



























I've been sick lately, and this is the polish i've been wearing for almost 9 days.
I want to improve and post more often but i just couldn't get close to acetone and polish these days...neither Ruby Pumps has got this amout of wearing in a single pose.
Anyway, this polish is part of Essence's LE "You Rock", i guess is a Paradoxal clone, eventhough i don't have the coveted Chanel, it seems like so.
The formula is thick and the small brush doesn't get along with my long nails; i would really love mixing balls inside the polish even if that means cost raised by 1 cent.
