Sew Psyched, Merino Cool, Little Brown Dress
For Fall, essie came with great fall colors and I would like to have all of these shades! Talk about being modest, lol. :D At first I liked only 2 colors – Sew Psyched and Merino Cool, but after I saw some swatches, I liked them ALL!
There are many swatches now out there and I recommend to check out those of Scrangie and Karen. :)
In Stitches, Limited Addiction, Velvet Voyeur
Chech out individual nail polish photos!

Today I have a guest swatcher on my blog, her name is Lea and she presents us her favorite OPI nail polish – OPI No Spain No Gain. Here’s what she says about it:
Application is very nice, as all other OPI polishes. It has a wide brush so it’s easy to apply it on nails and it takes only 2-3 strokes to get it evenly applied. It’s a creme shade and it’s quite an opaque shade. I think this is the only nail polish I apply with only 1 coat, a bit thicker coat though, but still, one coat. ;) I was really surprised with the application. It’s not streaky, no any kinf of marks… nothing at all. It dries really fast, faster than other OPI polishes I have, but I think it’s probably because I apply only one coat. Yes, I’m obviously impressed with this one-coat-thing. :D
When it comes to lasting power, with a good top coat it lasts for good 3-4 days without chipping. Perhaps it would last even longer, but I never waited so long to see what happens. :D Also, if it’s used without any top coat, it starts to chip the very next day.
I would rate it with 5/5, and that’s why I chose it to swatch it. I can definitely say that this is THE best OPI I’ve got! ;)
How do you like it?

From Catrice Carame collection I got only this nail polish because I didn’t really like the rest of the collection when I saw it in person.
#04 Berry Bazaar - I don’t have such berry color, I really love it. It easily applied, dries enough quickly, lasting power is also okay. You need 2 coats for an opaque color.
The bottom picture isn’t most accurate – the nail polish looks more like the color in the bottle, not like on my nail. I don’t know why it turned out a bit different. :/
Did you get anything from Carame collection? What?

This is the only YSL nail polish I’ve tried so far and I have to admit this shade of red is indeed lovely, but, considering that today there are so many cheaper and good-quality nail polishes I don’t feel like I should be paying so much for just one nail polish.
Yes, it’s a nice shade, it’s nicely applied, it looks beautiful, etc. but on the other hand – I don’t want to pay for the name, if the product isn’t something which makes my heart hop :D But, the design is really alluring, and so is the color. :) I’m not sure about the price here in croatia, but in US it costs $20 (I suppose that here is approx. $30), but I know it offers you 0.33 fl. oz for that price, which isn’t such huge amount because OPI, China Glaze and Color Club nail polishes really spoiled me with theirs 15 ml. :D
The bottom line is – if you like pricey nail polishes, and you also love red shades – you’ll definitely like this nail polish.

I already wrote a post about H&M Summer nails here, and since yesterday I got Neon Lilac shade on my nails! I took photos of other 3 shades as well, but Photoshop isn’t listening to me today, so you’ll have to wait a bit for other swatches. :)
Neon Lilac isn’t event *that* neon when compared to other 3 shades. I like this shade the most on my nails, but that’s probably because I’m not really used to having baby blue, yellow or orange nail polish, I guess I just have to get used to having that too. :D The application was fine, the formula was a bit thin but okay. You need 2 coats to have an opaque shade. I’ll see how long will it last on my nails! :)
How do you like this shade?
2 coats (natural light)

I really love ChG nail polishes and their collections, but I’m really not into this collection. I actually don’t see the point of having a LE collection with only 4 new products. However, I do like the 1st, purple shade, but will skip it because I have enough purple shades! what about you? :)
Shades:
- Mummy May I
- Ick-A-Body
- Zombie Zest

Today I received another package from Slovenia, this time I received h&m nail polishes from dear Gejba @ Parokeets.com blog! Unfortunately, in Croatia we don’t have h&m so when I saw these swatches on their blog I was complaining about not having h&m anywhere near me so Gejba offered me to send me these polishes! I just can’t describe how adorable and lovely these polishes are!
I got 2 Summer nails set, each contains 4 different nail polishes (4 x 3.2 ml) – one has neon colors, and the other one has “ordinary” colors. :D And since I can’t describe with words how gorgeous they are, take a look at my photos and see for yourself!
all shades together!

Of course I had to try this shade first and I have to say I’m loving it! I had no problem with applying it, the formula was just fine, you need to coats to get opaque color, and the shimmer looks gorgeous in the sunlight! This is definitely one of my favorite essence nail polishes!
I also tried essie matte about you top coat with it and though it doesn’t look promising in my photo, I like how it looks in person – definitely it looks much prettier than here.
Which version do you prefer more?
(2 coats)

Have you got something from this collection? If yes – what? :)
