FNUG - Glamour

Hello eveyone! Just a quick swatch today of Danish brand Fnug's Glamour. An orangepinkish color, I guess one could call it. I love all polishes with shades of peach/orange/coral! This one has a very strong color. On the index and middle finger three coats are used, and on the ring and little finger two coats.

 

Thanks for reading - remember to join this page. Have a nice evening and see you tomorrow!

Tak fordi I kiggede med - husk at blive medlem af siden! - Marie.

Gosh Ocean

Hello everybody!
Today's swatch is Gosh Ocean! A beautiful turquoise blue/green polish. Actually, it was a bit dumb because first time I saw it in the local beauty store, where there was a Gosh sale with everything on half price. But I was also buying some other polishes, and thought to myself that I was already spending too much money in there that day, so I left. Without Ocean. But I couldn't stop thinking about it so at last after some days I had to go buy it another place. Full price though. Dumb. But now it's mine. Mine. Miiiiineeee!!!

Today was the warmest day so far in Denmark this year, so I took some of the pictures outside. The green grass and Ocean compliments eachother very well, I think. I really regret I recently cut my nails short though :(  I used two coats.

You like?  :)

Dansk: Idag swatcher jeg Gosh Ocean! En rigtig flot turkis blågrøn lak. Jeg så den første gang i Matas hvor der var halv pris på alt Gosh fordi de ville stoppe med at sælge Gosh derinde. Jeg ville først købe den, men syntes så alligevel at jeg var i færd med at bruge for mange penge derinde, for skulle også have nogle andre lakker! Så jeg købte den ikke. Men det fortrød jeg og måtte så efter nogle dage ud og købe den, bare i en anden Matas til fuld pris. Men nu er den endelig min! Idag har vejret jo været skønt, så tog nogle af billederne udenfor. Synes den grønne baggrund klæder Ocean rigtig godt. Der er brugt 2 lag. Kan I lide den? :)

FNUG psychedelic - holographic polish

Hi everyone!
Sorry for the lack of postings today, but I worked for 12 hours today, so there isn't really any time for anything else than work, eat and sleep. I shall be better prepared next time!
Here's a quick picture of Fnug's holographic polish, Psychedelic. I freaking love it! It's the king!!
It's a silver polish that reflects all possible colors especially in direct sun light. Everyone should get a holographic polish! Fnug is a Danish brand and the polishes contains A, B, D & E vitamin.What's not to love? ;)

It's a bit difficult to capture the beautiful holo effect on camera, but trust me. It's crazy insane shiny.
 Fnug also made a blueish holo called Futuristica (swatch coming up) and Fantastica which is greenish and I unfortunately don't have :(

Can you recommend any holographic polishes? I know Chanel and Gosh also made a holo, but I haven't tried them.

- Marie

 Uh, by the way, it is recommended that before using Fnug's holographic polishes, you should use Aqua Fix Base coat, that is supposed to make the holographic effect even brighter. I shall be testing soooon if there is a difference.

Ciate Loop the Loop - Fairground collection

EDIT: CLICK HERE FOR NEW AND BETTER SWATCH OF LOOP THE LOOP!!

No longer shall you wait! As I promised yesterday, here's a review of Ciate Loop the Loop from the Fairground Collection. A very nice pale yellow. I wanted a yellow polish for some while, and when I saw Ciate's, I knew I had found my new best friend for summer!

 

If you want to check out my review of Ciate Hoopla (the peachy-pink on the photo) follow this link were you also can see the whole Fairground collection: Ciate Hoopla 

Oh well, back to Loop the Loop! 

                                     
                                             

.

I used three coats.

 

 On the picture below, there is only two coats on the pinky. As you can see, it's not completely even, so I would recommend 3 coats, like on the other nails.

 

Ciate wins everytime on appearance. I just love their bottles! But appearance isn't everything - the polish itself is also very good, with a nice finish and long lasting.

So, do you need to get this or doesn't it appeal to you?

- Marie

Dansk; Som lovet kommer her review af Ciate Loop the Loop, som er en lækker lysegul neglelak, som uden tvivl bliver min bedste ven her til sommer! For at se review at Ciates Hoopla samt resten af Fairground kollektionen følg dette link: Ciate Hoopla . Til disse billeder har jeg brugt 3 lag, da lakken var en lille bitte smule ujævnt fordelt ved 2 lag. Ciate vinder til hver en tid på udseendet, men også selve indholdet holder! Taler den til jer, eller er den ikke lige jer? :)

Rimmel Precious Stones - Ruby Crush

Hello again! :) 

Finally HAL9000 (my computer) would let me upload pictures along with my postings.

Thought you might wanted to see something else than pastels now! (Am I right?) So here we have Ruby Crush, a red glitter polish. It is 1 of 2 polishes of Rimmel's collection Precious Stones. I used it without another nailpolish as basecoat, I just wore it alone, which I think is prettier than with a red polish under.

I can't really say anything about how many coats I used, but prox 2 coats. Glitter polishes are, as I am sure you know, not as even as cream polishes, so I just "dapped" some more on the nail where there wasn't as much glitter as other places. The brush is wide which is a big plus. And it lasts long. 

 

It is consisting of a lot of tiny red glitters and some fewer bigger silver glitter. 

  Rimmel also made one called Diamond Dust which is a grey/silver one. I will swatch that some other day. 

Do I need to mention that it was pain in the a** to take off of the nails?? Well, it was! 

The cotton pad was all over the nails, it was very messy. Soak the cotton pad in nail polish remover and wrap it round your finger, and after a little while you can remove the nail polish without any problems!

So do you like Ruby Crush? 

- Marie

Today . . .

Dear Readers! I got 2 swatches for you today, but my computer won't upload any pictures right now!! Hopefully my computer will behave better later, instead of acting like HAL 9000 taking over all control.
Have a nice day!
