Hello ladies!





Scroll down for English

RO: In primul rand, imi pare rau pentru amanarea postului, stiu ca sunteti curioase sa vedeti cum arata oja, dar am avut niste probleme si chiar nu am mai avut cum sa ma ocup de blog :( Ei bine, achitarea...er, articolul e aici :D Am incercat sa fac si un fimulet pentru a va arata cum e oja, fiti blande va rog ;;), am improvizat si eu cum am putut (am pus aparatul pe laptop si am incercat sa spoiesc degetul astfel incat sa vedeti voi bine, am filmat pentru fiecare deget si am ales ce era mai ok), si nu am editat nimic pentru ca nu ma pricep. Dar sper ca puteti vedea acolo cam cum e cu oja crapacioasa :>

Apoi, in al doilea rand, trebuie sa va impartasesc frustarea mea legata de dragutul meu aparat foto, care face niste poze minunate, asa compact cum e el dar cand vine vorba de verde...Of, verdele ma omoara! Nu vrea si nu vrea sa redea culoarea, am incercat toate setarile posibile. Nu vrea! X( Dar stand mai bine sa ma gandesc, cred ca are o problema cu o nuanta anume, si ca sa vezi, oja e exact acea nuanta. "Norocul" meu! X( Si nici in Photoshop nu am reusit sa scot nuanta asa ca m-am orientat catre o poza care sa contina nuanta respectiva de verde, ca sa vedeti si voi ce culoare superba :)

Dar sa revenim la oile noastre, adica oja. Nu postez eu NOTD-uri atat de des pe cat as vrea dar macar fiecare articol e special, nu credeti? :D Oja folosita ca baza a fost febletea mea, Fiery Coral de la Oriflame peste care am aplicat crackle Flormar

Ma gandesc ca ar fi bine sa va povestesc un pic despre tipul asta de oja, desi nu e o noutate, mai sunt, probabil, printre voi si cele care inca nu stiu "cu ce se mananca" oja crapacioasa. Cei de la Flormar au pus instructiuni pe sticlute unde explica cum se foloseste oja. Iata ce zic ei:
Aplicati un strat gros de Flormar Nail Emanel. Asteptati 4 minute. Aplicati un strat gros de Graffiti-Top dintro aplicare si evitati sa dati si in sens invers. Aplicati un top coat pentru un aspect lucios.

Si iata ce zic eu: Normal ca puteti folosi orice oja doriti ca baza si in cate straturi vreti, asa cum faceti de obicei. Eu am ales oja de la Oriflame si am aplicat-o in 2 straturi, ca de obicei. De asteptat, eu am asteptat muult si biine ca sa se usuce bine oja, sa n-o lipesc de ceva si sa se strice. Eu sunt experta in a-mi strica manichiura, fix dupa ce m-am chinuit atat sa-mi pictez unghiutele :D Dupa ce am terminat cu oja normala am trecut la cea crackle.

Primele doua degete nu au iesit grozav, de fapt aratatorul mi-a iesit mai rau pentru ca am aplicat un strat prea subtire (se poate observa si in poza cu mana stanga) :( Dar, dupa cele doua degete m-am obisnuit si a iesit bine :D Zice ca trebuie sa asteptati 30 de secunde pentru a se usca, si intr-adevar se usuca repede, as indrazni sa zic si ca mai repede de 30 de secunder daar...s-ar putea sa ma insel :) In orice caz, se usuca repede, asta e sigur.

Si ca sa lamuresc cateva chestiuni: nu este foarte vascoasa, as putea spune ca seamana cu o oja normala. Superficial Beauty zicea ca ei nu i-a placut crackle de la China Glaze pentru ca era prea vascoasa, ei bine sper ca se observa si in video, asta nu e chiar asa, altfel nici n-as fi aplicat eu stratul ala prea subtire ;;) Aspectul ojei mi-a placut, asa mai mat (in poze nu am aplicat top coat) daar nu mi-a placut deloc cum se simtea, de parca ar fi fost smirghel. Ma zgaria pe creier de fiecare data cand dadeam pe unghie si simteam. Yuk! Asa ca am aplicat un top coat intrun final si asa e bine, no more smirghel :))

Ce as putea sa mai zic? Hm...nu stiu. Ba stiu! ADOR OJA ASTA CRAPACIOASA!! :P Daca am uitat sa zic ceva (sunt totusi doar la al treilea NOTD si inca sunt newbie), spuneti-mi ce ati vrea sa stiti ca sa pot completa

Ce ziceti, in or out pentru crackle Flormar? Acum vreau verdele deschis, si galbenul, si un portocaliu sau mai bine va zic ce nu vreau? Rozul si negrul :> Voi?

EN: First, let me just start off by saying that I'm sorry for the delay of this post :(. I promised you the day before yesterday but some problems came up and I really didn't have the time to do the post. Well, redemption..er, .the post is here :D I even made a video for you guys, please be gentle for it's my first attempt ;;)

So, secondly let me tell you my frustration with my sweet little camera. I love it, takes great pictures, even if it's a compact one but the green, oh...the green. When I tried to catch the exact shade of green of this nail polish, I just couldn't, no matter what settings I had X(  Actually, if I think about it better, it's a particular shade of green that's the problem, and this nail polish happens to be in that shade. Oh, wow, lucky me! Anyways, I searched for a picture with this shade of green so you can see what a beautiful color it is.

Back to the nails. Ah, the nails...I may not post NOTDs as often as I'd liked but I do make them special, don't I? :D For the base nail polish I went for my love, the Fiery Coral from Oriflame and the Flormar Graffiti crackle polish on top

I figured I should first tell you some things about the crackle though I know that for many of you, this is nothing new. Well, for me, it's the first crackle and I surely there are some of you not hooked on this trend.
It's nice that the guys at Flormar printed some instructions on the bottle on hoe to use zah crackle. Here's what they're saying:
Apply one thick coat of Flormar Nail Emanel. Wait 4 minutes. Apply one thick coat of Graffiti-Top in one stroke and avoid going backwards. Wait 2 minutes and then apply a top coat if you want a glossy finish.

And here's what I'm saying:
 
The first 2 fingers...eemm, not so great, actually it was worse on my second finger than the first because I applied a thinner coat. But then I started to get the hang of it, visible in the pictures also :D It says you have to wait 30 seconds to dry and it really dries up quickly, I might dare say even faster than 30 seconds, but then again, I might be wrong :D But it dries quickly, that's a sure thing :D
 
To clear some things up, the viscosity of the polish is similar to your normal polish. Superficial Beauty told me that she didn't like the China Glaze crackle because she found it too thick and this one isn't (you can also see the thickness in the video). Personally, I liked the look of the crackle without a top coat (in the pictures, I didn't apply a top coat) but hated the feel, kind of sandpaper-y. Yuk! So I applied a top coat and it's much better.

What else to say? I don't know! Oh, maybe if it isn't clear already: I LUV THIS CRACKLE POLISH! :P And if you'd like to know additional stuff, that I've left out (since it's just my third NOTD I'm still a newbie ;;) ) please let me know.

What do you say, Flormar crackle in or out? Now I want the lighter green, and the yellow, and one orange aand maybe I should just tell you what I don't want: black and pink :>
