My Nail Polish Collection


Guess who finally managed to film the nail polish collection video?! Yup, moi! The video turned out to be quite a bit longer than I had expected, so I suggest you to make yourself a cup of lemonade and grab a few snacks before clicking the play button. And don't forget to leave me some nail polish suggestions below.  Are there any shades or brands that I definitely need to check out (when I go to the US)? 


P.S. In case you're wondering, I got my nail wheels HERE. You get 5 of them for just a bit over 1€! 

NOTD: Bahamian Escape & Re-fresh Mint

It seems like summer has now finally decided to visit our small corner of the Earth, so you know what this means, right? Time for bright, fun nail polish colours of course!


Last weekend I've been sporting two China Glaze's shades - Bahamian Escape and Re-fresh Mint. These nail polishes both belong to my sister, so I hope she'll let me borrow them again. Especially the blue one. Doesn't it scream summer?

P.S. Sorry for the lack of posts. I have a ridiculous amount of exams coming up, so I have absolutely no  time to create interesting content. I have three more stressful weeks left, but after that, I'm all yours! I really can't wait to have some free time on my hands and start turning my plans into something concrete. My blog/youtube notebook is overflowing with ideas! 

NOTD: Fiji

fiji essie swatch review

I've been trying to capture the shade of this nail polish for months now, but I give up. My camera just doesn't want to pick up the slight pink undertone, which makes this nail polish super chic. Unfortunatelly, my swatch looks plain white, so please check google if you want to see the right colour. Ok, enough with the rant. Essie's Fiji is definitely one of my favourite shades. It is the perfect nude for my nails! It looks very classy and has all the positive features of Essie nail polishes. The shade is opaque with two coats, it lasts long on my nails and applies beautifully! It is one of those shades that you can wear all the time and also one of those that you end up repurchasing. 

P.S. I've heard that Essie nail polishes are now finally avaliable in Slovenia! I don't know if this is good for me or not. I can totally see myself purchasing the whole stand and then going broke...

NOTD: Sweets Way Jelly Sandwich


It took me a while, but I finally tried out the jelly sandwich technique. If you don't know what this is, it's basically putting a layer of glitter nail polish in between two layers of neutral sheer nail polish. In other words, you first put on one coat of sheer nail polish, then a  coat of glittery nail polish, and on top of that another coat of sheer nail polish. For the sheer nail polish, I chose OPI's At First Sight, and for the glittery one the Nails Inc.'s Sweets Way. I think the manicure turned out really cute, and I love how the Sweets Way looks like in a jelly sandwich. I actually prefer it like that than on its own (see here). Have you ever sported jelly sandwich nails yourself? How do you like the look?

NOTD: Barry M Greenberry


I finally got the nail polish I've been wanting for months and I'm OBSESSED! It's ridiculously pretty and perfect for the spring/summer season. The shade is called 'Greenberry' and is a part of the amazing Barry M's 'Gelly Hi-Shine' collection. It is indeed shiny, opaque, non-streaky and lasts long on my nails. Who else is totally in love with this shade?

You can check out the reviews and swatches of my other Barry M Gellys here: Grapefruit, Prickly Pear & Blueberry

NOTD: Mint Confettis


I have a very short post for you today, because I don't have much to say to be honest, haha. This is the mani I wore a few weeks ago. It includes my two favourite polishes right now - Essie's Mint Candy Apple and L'Oreal's Confettis top coat. I really like the look of this combination. I'll definitely wear it again! How do you like it?
