Essie Playing Koi | Burnt Orange Nails

Burnt orange is one of my favourite colours to wear during autumn. It matches the colourful leaves perfectly and puts me in a cozy mood. Today, I am here with a review about probably the most famous burnt orange nail polish - Essie Playing Koi.

Sailor Moon Nails | Pastel Nail Stamping

I remember that Sailor Moon was the coolest thing when I was little. I was in love with the outfits and the characters, and I am sure that most little girls felt the same way. My favourite character is Tiger's Eye from the Amazon trio, I just love him. To honour that part of my childhood, I am here to show you a Sailor Moon inspired nail design.

In My Stash | Mint Green Nail Polish Collection

We all have that specific colour in our nail polish collection that we buy multiple shades of. My obsession is mint green, I've been a huge fan of all kind of mint shades for years now. I've built a collection of them and thought you'd enjoy a separate post with swatches. Let's see!

Nail Polish Haul | Essie Sale

Két hete én is elbandukoltam a 2M Beauty apró boltjába a rakparton. Akik követnek a kezdetek óta, azaz lassan 4 éve, talán emlékeznek, hogy már beszéltem erről a kis üzletről. Az előző két (1; 2) Essie lakkom is itt vettem, és ez az egyetlen hely, ahol ezt a márkát árulják.

To my international readers: a little shop (called 2M Beauty) had an amazing sale, so I was able to pick up 5 Essie pieces for 9$, and that is amazing. It is the only place that sells Essie in Hungary, and usually they are very pricy, around 8$ for a piece.

Top Nail Polishes For Fall And Winter - 39 Shades | Körömlakkok őszre és télre - 39 árnyalat

As you probably guessed, I'll show you my picks of nail polish for fall and winter. I've got lovely new shades in my collection this year, and I'll also show you older pieces, just to categorize the colours that you might own from other brands already.

Ma 39 őszi és téli lakkot hoztam nektek, ami szép kerek szám. Ezzel a bejegyzéssel egyrészt a kívánságlistátokat is bővíthetitek, és "shopping-my-stash" sessiont is tarthattok, aminek az a lényege, hogy átkutatjátok a fiókotokat régen elfeledett kincsekért. Igaz, hogy már lassan december van, de ha a tavalyi évből indulok ki (amikor ibolyát szedtem Karácsony napján), akkor még egy ideig élvezhetjük az őszt.

Updated Nail Polish Collection | August 2011

Just a quick update on my nail polish collection. I got a few more nail polish since my first collection post.
I'm going to post this on the Essence beauty forum,so I decided to post here as well.

Csak egy gyors helyzetjelentés a körömlakkjaimmal kapcsolatban. Az első lakk kollekciós bejegyzésem óta bővült pár darabbal a gyűjtemény.
Mivel úgy is posztolni fogom ezt az Essence beauty fórumra, úgy döntöttem, hogy ide is kiteszem.

By Essence:

Today I'm going to show you an awesome nail polish pairing. I used Mint Candy Apple by Essie and I Like by Essence. Both are mint green shades, and they look gorgeous together. Wanna see?

Ma egy abszolút nyerő körömlakk párost fogok mutatni. A két  lakk, amit használtam, az I Like az Essence-től és a Mint Candy Apple az Essie-től. Minkét szín mentazöld, és gyönyörűen mutatnak együtt.

The Perfect Peachy Nude Nail Polish

Essence XXXL Multi Dimension nail polish - Chill Out
(natural light, 3 coats)

Today's nail polish is the perfect nude colour for me, it's Chill Out by Essence. It's a light peachy nude shade, very similar to my skintone. It has some hidden silver microshimmer in it, but it doesn't show up on the nails. It goes well with any outfit.

with flash

It's a bit sheer, I applied 3 coats for the desired coverage. I have to say that Chill Out is my favourite nude nail polish, but unfortunately it's not available anymore. I already used up half of it.

Essie's Eternal Optimist is a nice dupe in my opinion.:)

Would you wear it?

Nail of the Day | Essie Mesmerize

Essie Mesmerize is a beautiful creamy royal blue, and it's perfect in one coat, but for swatching's sake I did two coats. I love blue nail polishes, and this one is a gorgeous unique colour, so I will wear this a lot.

Mesmerize is from the Spring 2009 collection, and I'm considering to buy one more colour of this collection, that one is called Eternal Optimist.

(Similar: OPI - Dating A Royal, but it's darker than Mesmerize.)

Essie Mesmerize
2 coats, flash

To sum up: Mesmerize is my first Essie nail polish, and I'm really impressed. The colour is gorgeous, opaque in one coat, and it does not chip. 

Here's another Mesmerize I like.
