Nailtalk: quick drying top coats

Hi there, everybody!

Today I thought I'd talk about all the fast drying top coats for nails that I have :)

 I'm always on the hunt for the best one and like to try different products. To be honest I don't like spending time on manicure but I'm a huge nail polish hoarder so to get this process over with quicker is my ultimate goal :)

At the moment I have quite a few products but the holy grail one has been Seche Vite for years now. My nails are very soft, they peel and break, I hand wash my dishes and most nail polishes don't last on my nails more than 2 days. So I don't have high hopes for top coats making my polish last longer, I just need it to dry my nails fast so I can go on with my life :)

I'll divide them by categories and similarities :)

Avon Nail Expert Liquid Freeze and Essie quick-e Drying Drops are quite similar products in application.
Avon Liquid Freeze comes in a spray bottle and you spray the product over polished nails and let them dry. It takes about 10 minutes for polish to dry which is a lot for me so I don't reach for this product very often. Plus it made my nail polish bubble up. Maybe I sprayed too much or too close but I wasn't happy with the product. I will give it another go but it's definitely one of the worst I have.
Essie quick-e Drying Drops comes with a dropper and you drop 1-2 drops of liquid on polished nails and let them dry. This one takes about 7 minutes before nails are dry which is the reason I don't reach for it as often.

Revlon Quick Dry Top Coat and Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Top Coat are both very similar products in application, quality and the time they take to dry nail polish which is around 5 minutes. So I use both if I don't have Seche Vite at that moment. I like them and don't have anything bad to say about them.

Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat is my favourite because I can move on with my life after max 2 minutes. It really dries the polish super fast and gives it a nice shine. The only thing I dislike about it is that it becomes very thick in about half a bottle which makes it impossible to use. But even that doesn't bother me that much and I always have to have it at home :)

Do you have a favourite top coat? Please share in the comments below :)

Tere ja kena kevadet! :)
Sel korral teen ülevaate oma kiirkuivatavatest küünelakkidest. Kuna mu küüneplaat on pehme ja murduv ning pesen nõusid käsitsi, ei püsi mul ükski lakk kauem kui 2 päeva, mistõttu pealislakilt ei oota ma kestvuse pikendamist vaid kiiret kuivatamist.

Avon Nail Experts Liquid Freeze ja Essie quick-e Drying Drops on minu jaoks mõneti sarnased tooted just pealekandmise poolest.
Avoni Liquid Freeze (tavahind 4.60, hetkel kehtivas kataloogis soodushinnaga 2.49) on spreiga pudelis, seega pärast küünte lakkimist saab kiirkuivataja mugavalt küünele pihustada. Kahjuks võtab laki kuivamine selle tootega aega kuni 10 minutit, mis on minu jaoks liialt pikk aeg. Lisaks hakkas ka värvilakk mullitama aga selle põhjus võis olla toote liiga suur kogus või liialt lähedalt pihustamine. Igatahes ei ole ma selle tootega kuigi rahul ja kipun kasutama muid vahendeid.
Essie quick-e Drying Drops tootel on kaasas pipett, millega vahendit lakitud küünele tilgutada. Selle abil kuivab lakk umbes 7 minutiga, mis on minu jaoks ka veidi pikk aeg, mistõttu haaran pigem kiirema toimega toote järele. Essie tooteid minu teada Eestis ei müüda ning ma ei leidnud neid ka suurematest veebipoodidest :(
Revlon Quick Dry Top Coat ja Sally Hansen Insta-Dri on minu jaoks väga sarnaste omadustega tooted ning laki kuivatavad mõlemad umbes 5 minutiga. Toimivad mõlemad suurepäraselt ning kasutan neid siis kui minu lemmik Seche Vite kodust puudub :) Revloni tooteid Eestis ei müüda, Sally Hansenit leiab Kaubamajast, Ideaalkosmeetikast ning I.L.U. poodidest hinnaga umbes 10 €.
Kõige lõppu jätsin oma vaieldamatu aastatepikkuse lemmiku Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat, mis kuivatab laki max 2 minutiga ning annab ilusa läike. Ainus toote miinus on see, et umbes poole pudeli peal muutub see tihkeks, mistõttu on seda pea võimatu kasutada. Sellele vaatamata kasutan seda toodet iga kord kui küüsi lakin ning see peab mul koguaeg kodus olemas olema :)
Seche tooteid saab mugavalt soetada Beauty Pro veebipoest SIIN.

Kas sina kasutad kiirkuivatajaid? Milline on sinu lemmik? Jaga oma kogemusi kommentaarides :)

Last haul from 2015

Before I start writing about new beauty things in 2016 allow me to show you few products I got in the end of 2015.

First are the things I got from our annual beauty fair where I went with a strict shopping list (LINK).

Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat is my all time favourite holy grail product. I have tried many other similar products but nothing compares to this one. I can literally do whatever after two minutes of coating my nails with it!

Since all of the Living Proof products for my hair type were sold out I got this gigantic bottle (800ml) of Tahe Botanic Cleansing Total Shampoo which is meant for deep cleaning your scalp and hair. Unfortunately I can't use this shampoo anymore because for the first time in many many years I got dandruff from using it.

Blendercleanser Solid soap bar for cleaning makeup brushes is so fast and effective, it blows my mind! Especially for cleaning my foundation and cream product brushes. I do use an alcohol based product for spot cleaning but if I need my brushes squeaky clean, this little soap bar is the key! Yes, it is pricey but it will last you quite a while.

Stenders came out with three EDT fragrances in November last year and were so nice to let me pick my favourite of the three. I picked Northern Light which smells really fresh and has notes of lemon, passion fruit, mango and musk. I have received many compliments wearing it so I suggest you take a sniff next time you're around a Stenders counter :) It also lasts quite well on my skin.

MADARA is another Latvian brand that I like and during their 40% off sale I ordered Vitalising Soap and Sun Flower Golden Beige Tinting Fluid travel size product to try it out. The body wash had a nice zesty scent to it so I liked to use it in the mornings. It wasn't anything super remarkable but then again it's just a soap :) The tinting fluid is a tinted moisturiser that evens out the skin tone and gives it a nice glow. I suggest you subscribe to their newsletter so you'll be notified when they have sales next time and if you're interested in organic skincare you can try out some new stuff :)

Mõtlesin teha kiire ülevaate asjadest, mille veel eelmisel aastal soetasin ja seejärel alustada uute 2016. aasta postitustega :)

Messile Ilu Sõnum läksin eelmisel korral kindla ostunimekirjaga (LINK) ning soetasin oma kõige-kõige lemmikuma küünelaki kiirkuivataja Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat. Ma olen proovinud lugematu arv erinevaid kiirkuivatajaid aga Seche Vite vastu ei saa minu silmis neist ükski.
Kuna minu juuksetüübile mõeldud tooted olid Living Proof letis juba otsas, soetasin selle ülisuure pudeli Tahe Cleansing Total sügavpuhastavat šampooni. Kahjuks ei saa ma seda enam kasutada, sest üle saja aasta tekkis mulle juustesse kõõm.
Pintslite puhastamiseks ostsin Blendercleanser Solid seebi, millega sain kaasa ka väikese täitepakendi. See seep on tõesti tõhus ja kulub seda ka väga vähe :) Soetada saab seda näiteks SIIT, SIIT või SIIT.
Eelmise aasta novembris tuli Stenders välja kolme uue tualettveega, millest nad lahkelt lubasid mul välja valida enda lemmiku. Mind kõnetas enim värske Northern Light, mida kandes saan alati komplimente. Hetkel on need lõhnaveed Stendersis väga hea hinnaga, nii et soovitan kiirelt oma sammud poodi seada ning oma ninaga asi üle vaadata :)
Madara teeb tihtilugu oma veebipoes kuni 40% soodukaid, nii et ühel sellisel soetasin endale Vitalising Soap dušigeeli ja reisisuuruses Sun Flower Golden Beige Tinting Fluid tooniva näokreemi. Kehaseep oli väga mõnusa ja värske lõhnaga, mida mulle meeldis kasutada just hommikuse virgutajana. Tooniva päevakreemiga saab nahatooni ühtlustada ning see annab kena Kuma. Väga hea näonahaga inimesed võivadki seda kasutada jumestuskreemi asemel, muul juhul sobib see hästi ka jumestuskreemi alla :) Neile, kes huvituvad looduslikumast kosmeetikast, soovitan end Madara uudiskirja saajaks registreerida. Nii jõuab info soodukate kohta kiirelt postkasti :)

Wishlist: Ilu Sõnum Sügis 2015

Today is the first day of our annual biggest beauty and fashion fair Beauty Word that I always have in my calendar and visit.

The event will be held in Estonian Fairs Centre until Sunday October 11th 6pm.

I went through the list of all the companies that will be represented and came up with a short list of things I'd like to get :)

Living Proof hair products because I don't have a good shampoo in my house at the moment :)

Blendercleanser Solid because I first tried it at MUA school and  it's the best and most effective of all the makeup brush cleansers I've used! 

Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat becuase I just can't live without it and 4 similar products I currently use just don't perform as well :)

Dermosil products because I've never tried them :)

Milani Cosmetics because I really lack in blushes and I hope they will have a good selection :)

I will try to show you the stuff I get tomorrow so you'll get the chance to go and grab the ones you like on Sunday the latest :)

Igale ilu- ja moehuvilisele pole mitte mingi uudis, et täna algas Mess Ilu Sõnum Sügis 2015 :)

Vaatasin läbi kõik brändid, kes sel korral esindatud ja tegin enda jaoks nimekirja, kelle boksi kindlasti külastan :)

Homme, laupäeval, lähen jahtima järgmiseid tooteid:

Living Proof juuksehooldustooteid, sest mul on šampoon täiesti otsas :) Neid tooteid leiab Salonshop Baltic boksist :)

Blendercleanser Solid meigivahendite puhastusseep on parim, mida ma proovinud olen! Selle leiab PRO Kosmeetika boksist.

Seche Vite kiirkuivatav pealislakk on minu absoluutne lemmik, milleta ma lihtsalt ei saa hakkama. Mul on hetkel 4 alternatiivset toodet ja ükski neist ei tee oma tööd nii hästi kui Seche Vite! Selle leiab Beauty Pro boksist :)

Dermosil ja Milani Cosmetics tooteid tahaks lihtsalt näha ja katsuda :)

Empties #19

Just before I left for my vacation in mid July, I cleaned out some of my makeup, so I got ton of stuff to throw away.

Here's the bunch with my mini reviews :)

Hair, body, face makeup, skincare & perfume
Girlz Only Dry Shampoo XXL Volume-Plus - it's quite good and very affordable dry shampoo that does it's job pretty well regarding making your hair look fresh and clean but I didn't see the XXL volumizing effect. Also it smelled sweet and floral. I would buy it again if I needed one quickly and there were no alternatives in the store ;)
Logona Lemon Balm Balance Shampoo - this is a natural product that's supposed to harmonise unbalanced scalp functions. I got it to tame my greasy roots but for some reason I didn't fall in love with it and didn't see great results. I know that switching to natural haircare takes time but I just didn't have the patience :)
Avon Senses Mood Therapy Revitalising shower gel with acai beer extract - typical body wash that smelled really, really good. Might repurchase when it's on sale again :)
Granny Agafia Body Scrub with buckwheat and milk - I bought this body scrub from my friends' mother who goes to Russia to get them. It smelled like fresh yoghurt and was nice on the skin but nothing that special to travel the world for it :)
Hydraluron - this is a facial moisture boosting serum that has hyaluronic acid in it. My skin loved it and it sank into it within seconds. Also great under makeup. Will definitely repurchase :)
Smashbox Photo Finish and Photo Finish UVA/UVB SPF 15 primer samples - I didn't see any results with these primers. They didn't reduce the appearance of my large pores and didn't keep my skin matte. Don't get what the hype is about :)
Comfort Zone Lip Blooming Scrub - it was so expensive when I bought it but it was literally the only lip scrub at that time in one of the largest department stores we have. And it was totally useless. I was so mad! Do not recommend it at all...
Oriflame The One Everlasting Foundation in Fair Nude - I was a nice foundation with light to medium coverage and if you set it with powder your face will stay matte for like half a day. Might repurchase :)
Giorgio Armani High Precision Retouch concealer in shade #3 - this concealer is more suitable for blemishes and not for under-eye area. I constantly struggle with finding a great under-eye concealer for my dark circles and unfortunately this one didn't do the job.
Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion sample in Sin - I love UD primer potions but this sample that I got with my Naked3 palette is just tooooooo metallic. It's more like a liquid eyeshadow than a primer.
Ralph by Ralph Lauren - I just love this perfume and would repurchase if I didn't have like 30 opened perfume bottles already. Very fresh and beautiful scent :)

Eyes, lips & nails
Essence Lash&Brow Gel Mascara - to be honest, I didn't like this product because it didn't keep my brow hairs in place. Still in search for a good clear brow gel...
MaxFactor Masterpiece Glamour Extensions 3-in-1 Volumising mascara - MaxFactor is fast becoming my favourite brand for mascara. It gives length and volume, curls my lashes and doesn't smudge. Also, I can wash most of it off with just warm water! Definitely a keeper :)
Bourjois Intuitive Liner - this is a 3-end felt-tip liner that is great to fill in the gaps between eyelashes and also for creating a nice thin line. Unfortunately they discontinued it... I just don't understand why Bourjois did that? I'm very upset that I can't get my hands on it anymore.
Revlon Colorburst Lip Butter in shade 95 Creme Brûlée - I didn't like the shade and formula of this lip butter and I don't feel comfortable passing lip products on to my girlfriends so it finally went to the bin :)
Rimmel Lasting Finish 1000 Kisses Transferproof Lip Tint in shade 120 Timeless Tango - this lip products comes in a marker form and has a clear lip balm on the other end. It really stays on for hours but it made my lips sting so I wasn't comfortable using it. Bin material again :)
Oriflame Eternal Gloss in shade ??? - this lip gloss is very sticky but at the same time it stayed on for a very long time. The stickiness was a bit too much for me, so I know I won't be wearing it.
Manhattan Long Lasting Gloss Glide in shade 56G - didn't like the formula of this one also so it was just sitting in my drawer for ages. Now it was time to get rid of it.
Carlo di Roma PURE (black) and L'Oreal Color Riche gel nail polish in 508 Amazon Flower (lighter shade) and 607 Ruf Montmartre (darker shade) - they got old and thick so it was time to throw them away.
Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat - the fastest drying top coat I've ever used which is my holy grail nail product. Unfortunately, once I use up about half a bottle, it becomes too thick to use anymore. Still my favourite and will definitely repurchase :)

Küsimus minu Eesti lugejatele:
kui paljud teist loevad blogi eesti keeles? Kas eesti-keelne tõlge on vajalik?
Kui enamik loeb blogi nagunii inglise keeles, siis kas piisab kui lisan postituse lõppu linke, mille kaudu tooteid Eestis osta või Eestisse tellida saab?
Loomulikult, kui eesti keeles lugejaid on enamus, lisan ka edaspidi igale postitusele eestikeelse teksti.

NOTD: Mesmerize & Mojito Madness

Being sick really sucks! So, to boost my mood, I'll share my weekend manicure with you!

This time I paired two nail polishes from Essie yet again  - one of my favourite blue shades Mesmerize with green Mojito Madness on my ring finger which I wore for the first time.

I have two coats of both of them topped with Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat as usual.

I quite like how it worked out though my nail polish started to chip the next day. 

What do you think? :)

I did a similar manicure last summer with lighter shades - you can see the result HERE .

Haige olemine on ikka päris kole :( Tuju parandamiseks jagan hoopis oma nädalavahetuse maniküüri :)

Sel korral kasutasin jällegi kahte Essie küünelakki - üht oma lemmikutest sinistest toonidest Mesmerize koos rohelise Mojito Madness tooniga, mida kasutasin esmakordselt.

Minu küüntel on kaks kihti kumbagi lakki ja pealislakina kasutasin oma lemmikut Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat nagu alati :) Paraku hakkas lakk mu küüntelt kuluma juba järgmisel päeval.

Siiski mulle täitsa meeldib, kuidas see kombo välja näeb :) Kuidas sulle?

Eelmisel suvel tegin sarnase maniküüri heledamate toonidega, mida võid vaadata SIIT :)

Empties #9

Time for yet another huge empties post :)

Hair and hands

Batiste Cool & Crisp Fresh dry shampoo - honestly, I'm becoming tired of Batiste dry shampoos. My hair is so sticky after using it and the freshness lasts quite shortly. It did smell fresh but even the scent became annoying after a while.  What I do love about Batiste dry shampoos is that you get the appearance of fresh hair immediately and they give quite a lot of volume. Nevertheless, I guess I will explore some new brands for a while now :)

Oriflame Coctails & the City Party Queen hand cream - light and gel-like hand cream that smells just divine! It absorbs quickly, moisturises quite well and doesn't leave my hands greasy or sticky. More suitable for warmer weather :)

Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat - my absolute favourite! Though there is a bit of it left in the pot, it became more like jelly in the end. So, time for the bin :D

Face

Vichy Purete Thermale 3in1 micellar solution - it's just awesome!!!! It removes traces of makeup, is refreshing and doesn't leave my skin sticky at all. It's suitable for sensitive skin and doesn't irritate my eyes even if I scrub my eyeballs with it (believe me, I did it :D ). Will definitely repurchase!

Dado Sens PurDerm normalising face cream  - I was quite happy with it until I found a cream that helped better with my problematic and acne-prone skin. But it also kept my face from getting worse.

JOIK facial toner with sea buckthorn oil and aloe - I really liked this product! It was nourishing and at the same time refreshing. My skin felt clean and fresh. I would not use it in the eye area though. It's more suitable for autumn/winter season and that's why I never used it after last summer. Now it's gone bad and it's time to send it to the bin :) Would definitely repurchase next winter. 

JOIK Gentle eye make-up remover - you honestly need 2 drops to remove heavy makeup! It works wonders! When I accidentally dropped more than 2 drops on a cotton round it kinda irritated my eyes a bit. So I suggest you only use the tiniest amount. Very good product! 

Makeup

Yves Saint Laurent Teint Radiance foundation - it gives such a lovely glow! It has SPF 20 in it, is amazingly easy to blend and has light to medium coverage. Suitable for dry to normal skin. Ladies with combination to oily skin may have to use powder to set it or definitely blotting paper and/or powder to touch-up after lunch! Loved it but it wasn't as perfect as my beloved Lancome foundation ;)  

MaxPactor Masterpiece Max mascara - seems that I found a very strong competitor to my beloved L'Oreal mascaras. It doesn't give much volume but it curls my lashes so that I don't even have to use a curler! Also it doesn't smudge during the day and most of it comes off with just warm water.

Wet'n'Wild E335 Silent Treatment eyeshadow trio - I bought it mostly because of the bottom taupe shade. Honestly, it's one of the prettiest shades of taupe I've tried. Since it's so soft, you definitely need to tap off the excess from your brush. Also because of the softness, if you press your brush too heavily into the shadow a large pieces will break off. It is really easy to blend and will stay put for at least 15h with a primer. I also liked to top browbone colour but since I have way too many eyeshadows there's no point in keeping it.

Avon Glimmerstick eyeliner in Blackest Black - very good, soft and indeed deep black liner that stayed on my waterline for quite some time. I was actually quite sad that it's gone now :)

Oriflame Eye Liner Stylo felt-tip eyeliner - for those who are practicing to create a perfect liner, this is a very handy tool! It's the third in a row for me and that says a lot about it. I definitely suggest you check it out :)

Thank you for reading and have a lovely spring :)

Aeg jälle viimastel kuudel tühjaks saanud potsikud viimsele teekonnale saata :)

Juuksed ja käed

Batiste Cool & Crisp Fresh kuivšampoon - ma hakkan ausaltöeldes Batiste' toodetest väsima. Juuksed jäävad kuidagi jube kleepuvad ja värskuse efekt kestab vaid lühiajaliselt. Lõhn oli sel tõesti värske ja mõnus aga jäi pikaks ajaks juustele ning mind hakkas see lõpuks väsitama. Mis on aga Batiste kuivšampoonide puhul pluss, siis kohene puhaste juuste efekt ning kohevus on silmaga nähtav. Siiski arvan, et uurin nüüd veidi ka mõne teise brändi kuivšampoone.

Oriflame Coctails & the City Party Queen kätekreem - kerge ja geelja koostisega kreem, millel on lihtsalt nii-nii mõnus lõhn! See on justkui magus ja tummine aga samas ka värske. Niisutas ka piisavalt ja ei jätnud käsi kleepuvaks. Sobib siiski pigem muul ajal kui talvise pakasega kasutamiseks. :)

Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat kiirkuivatav pealislakk - minu lemmik! Kuigi pudelis on veel üksjagu toodet, muutus see juba liiga kisselli-taoliseks ning kuna mul on sahtlis veel 3 kiirkuivatavat toodet, pole kahju seda põhja ka prügikasti suunata :)

Nägu

Vichy Purete Thermale 3in1 mitsellaarvesi - see on lihtsalt niiiiiiiiii hea!!!! Eemaldab meigijäägid, värskendab ega jäta näole kleepuvat kihti. Lisaks sobib ka tundlikule nahale ning isegi silmamune sellega hõõrudes ei teki ärritust (proovisin…ausõna). Sel tootel on ainult üks miinus - Eestis maksab 200ml pudel ligi 20 eurot.

Dado Sens PurDerm normaliseeriv näokreem - ka seda toodet on veel veidi tuubi põhja jäänud, sest leidsin lõpupoole enda probleemsele ja aknelisele nahale parema hooldusvahendi. Sinnamaani aga rahuldas see mind päris hästi kuigi mingit kiireloomulist efekti probleemse nahaga võitlemisel ma ei näinud, samas hoidis see siiski naha olukorda hullemaks minemise eest.

JOIK toniseeriv näovesi astelpajuõli ja aaloega - mulle väga meeldis see toode! See oli toitev ja samas värskendav. Nahk oli puhas ja värske. Siiski soovitan sellega silmade ümbrusesse mitte läheneda ;) Minu arvates sobib see pigem sügis-talvisel ajal kasutamiseks, mistõttu väike osa mul seisma jäigi. Nüüd aga on see juba veidi riknenud, mida on ka pudelile vaadates näha. Sellegipoolest on tegemist hea tootega, nii et järgmisel külmahooajal ostan seda ehk veelgi :)

JOIK Õrn silmameigi eemaldaja - see on nii tõhus, et piisab sõna otses mõttes 2 tilgast, et lihtsalt eemaldada tugev õhtumeik. Kui ma vatitupsule rohkem kui kaks tilka doseerisin, tekitas see mu tundlikele silmadele väikest ärritust. Seega, kui seda kasutada imevähe, on see lihtsalt super toode!

Makeup

Yves Saint Laurent Teint Radiance jumestuskreem - mõnus kumava efektiga jumestuskreem, mis sisaldab SPF 20. Seda on väga kerge hajutada ning selle katvus on kerge kuni keskmine. Kindlasti sobib nii kuivale kui normaalsele nahale. Kombineeritud ja rasuse nahaga daamid peaksid seda puudriga kinnitama või siis päeva teises pooles kindlasti puudriga üle käima. Kasutasin seda jumestuskreemi rõõmuga ja kumasin kelmikalt ;) Siiski ei teinud see silmi ette minu kõige lemmikumale Lancome jumestuskreemile.

MaxPactor Masterpiece Max ripsmetušš - tundub, et minu lemmikutele brändilt L'Oreal on tekkinud täiesti arvestatav konkurent. See ei anna küll ülemäära palju lopsakust kuid selle suur pluss on see, et ma ei vaja ripsmekoolutajat. Selle töö teeb tušš ülimalt efektiivselt ise ära. Väga hea toode, mis ei lähe tükki, ei kleebi ripsmeid kokku, ei määri ja millest suurema osa saab sooja veega maha pesta!

Wet'n'Wild E335 Silent Treatment lauvärvi trio - ostsin selle just alumise taupe tooni tõttu! See on tõepoolest üks ilusamaid seda tooni lauvärve. Seda on imelihtne hajutada ja aluskreemiga püsib see peal 15h vähemalt! Kuna see on oma koostiselt väga pehme, siis pudiseb seda üksjagu ka silmade alla (kindlasti soovitan üleliigse värvi pintslilt koputades eemaldada) ja kui lauvärvile liiga tugevalt pintsliga vajutada, tulevad päris suured tükid lahti. Mulle meeldis ka paleti ülemine nahatooni lauvärv kuid kuna mul on lauvärve nüüdseks vist juba üle 100, siis pole mõtet ühesuguseid toone alles hoida. Lisaks ei meeldi mulle pakendid, mis on juba määrdunud ;)

Avon Glimmerstick silmapliiats toonis Blackest Black - väga hea, pehme ja ülimust pliiats! See püsis ka veejoonel päris pikka aega. Mul oli isegi täitsa kurb, et see otsa sai :)

Oriflame Eye Liner Stylo silmalainer - väga mugav vildikaotsaga lainer, mis sobib kindlasti esimeseks laineriks neiule, kes alles õpib perfektset lainerijoont joonistama. Mul oli see järjekorras juba kolmas ning olen ka sõbrannadelt kuulnud, et millegi muuga nad hakkama ei saa kui sellega. Kindlasti soovitan!

Aitäh, et sa selle pika jutu lõpuni jõudsid lugeda! Ilusat kevadet sulle :)

NOTD: Essie Merino Cool

See pole juba ammu uudis, et kõiksugused mudased, tumedad ja eriti kohvi või taupe toonis küünelakid on minu lemmikud. Ka võin käsi südamel öelda, et just Essie lakid on minu lemmikud - seda nii toonivaliku, kasutusmugavuse kui püsivuse osas.

Sünnipäevaks sain Essie 2010. aasta sügiskollektsiooniks loodud laki toonis Merino Cool, mis on vaieldamatult minu kõige-kõige lemmikum toon kogu minu kollektsioonist.

Küüntel kaks kihti lakki ning üks kiht Seche Vite kiirkuivatavat pealislakki.

On my nails - two coats of Essie Merino Cool nail polish that was launched for Essie Fall 2010 collection.

This shade is undoubtedly my most favourite of all of my nail varnishes. Also, Essie is my most favourite brand - huge variety of shades, easy to use and stays on quite well :)

Ilu Sõnum 2013 ostud / haul

Võitsin imearmsa Stella kingiloosist pääsme messile Ilu Sõnum 2013 ning ühtlasi kaasnes sellega ka kingitus Annemarie Börlindilt.
Plaanisin küll messi külastada homme kuid kuna selline tore võimalus avanes, tegin kiire tunnise külaskäigu hoopis täna :)
Võrreldes eelmise aastaga on minu arvates sel aastal huvitavamad müüjad ning kui mul oleks olnud rohkem aega, oleksin kindlasti oma rahakotti veelgi rohkem kergendanud :)
Biotrendi messiboksist sain kätte oma kingituse, mis oli pakendatud imeilusasse valgesse karpi ning sisaldas endal Börlindi aprikoosi velvet kreemi, mis on ka kergelt tooniv; Tautropfeni Bretagne'i kehageeli ja Börlindi armsat vanaroosat huuleläiget. Olen väga rahul! Aitäh teile, Stella ja armas Biotrendi tiim :)
Samast boksist ostsin endale ka nahahoolduskomplekti, sest näonahk on mul hirmus kehvas olukorras.
Börlindi esindajaga konsulteerides valisime välja Dado Sens sarja PurDerm puhastuskreemi, sügavpuhastava tooniku ning efekt kreemi. Kõik need kokku maksid vaid 30 eurot. Minu ootused on igatahes kõrgel ning loodan, et mu nahk saab taas klaariks.
Veel soetasin 5 euroga White Glo valgendava hambapasta kohvi- ja teejoojatele, mille pakis sisaldub lisaks hambaharjale ja -pastale ka veel hambaniit ning -tikud.
Beautypro boksist sain viimase Seche Vite kiirkuivatava pealislaki uskumatute 3,50 euro eest!
Olen oma külastuse ja ostudega väga rahul ning soovitan sel korral kindlasti messi külastada!

I visited the annual beauty and fashion fair Ilu Sõnum 2013 today.

I won the free ticket to the fair from lovely Stella's blog which also included a gift from Annemarie Börlind.

The goodie bag I received had Börlind's Apricot Velvet Cream, Tautropfen Bretagne body gel and Börlind's lip gloss in it. Awesome!

Since my skin is in a very bad shape, I got myself some stuff from Annemarie Börlind Dado Sens range - I got creamy cleanser, deep cleansing tonic and normalizing cream all for only 30 euros.

I also bought White Glo whitening toothpaste for coffee & tea drinkers for 5 euros and my holy grail top coat from Seche Vite for only 3,50 euros.

In my opinion this year's fair is much better than last year and if you haven't already visited it, I strongly suggest you do because you'll get amazing offers there!

Mul on hetkel suur sinise vaimustus peal, seega uut lakki valides jäi mulle ikkagi pihku see mõnus sügavsinine Lancome küünelakk toonis 573B.

Küüntel kaks kihti lakki ja üks kiht Seche Vite kiirkuivatavat pealislakki.

I'm so into blues right now so on my nails is yet another blue polish - Lancome in shade 573B.

Isn't it deep? :D

On my nails: two coats of Lancome nail polish and one coat of Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat.

NOTD: nameless nailpolish

Paar päeva tagasi tegin Seppäläst kaks iluostu, millest üks on siin (hinnaks vaid 3,95 €).

Ilmselt siis Seppälä enda brändi küünelakk, millel pole nime ega tooni numbrit.

Tegemist on superägeda, jaheda, laguunisinisega, mis sobib just täpselt suvel kandmiseks :)

Mida ma selle küünelaki juures aga ei salli on harjake. Osad karvakesed on pikemad kui ülejäänud ja pintselt on ebamugavalt suur ja lai. See viimane välistab minu jaoks seda lakki pediküüris kasutamast.

Minu küüntel kaks kihti sinist lakki ja üks kiht Seche Vite kiirkuivatavat pealislakki.

On my nails: two coats of nameless nailpolish I got from Seppälä which also doesn't have a shade name or number  :D

NOTD: O.P.I Pink Friday

Mul pole olnud juba mitu kuud mahti küüsi lakkida kuid täna mõtlesin, et tõmbaks kiiruga ühe kihi midagi sädelevat peale ja jookseks välja. Aga võta näpust, minu kollektsioonis ei ole ühtegi heledat sillerdavat lakki :)

Niisiis osutus valituks O.P.I Pink Friday imeilus pastelne külm roosa.

Kandsin kiiruga peale kaks kihti lakki ja ühe kihi Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat pealislakki.

Kuidas meeldib?

After what seems like ages, I had finally a few minutes to paint my nails today.

On my nails: two coats of O.P.I Pink Friday nail polish and one coat of my holy grail Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat.

NOTD: Essie Lady Godiva

Õhtul seisin jälle oma küünelakikollektsiooni ees ja mõtlesin, mida küll valida.

Valituks osutus Essie küünelakk toonis Lady Godiva, mis on justkui tume šokolaad küüntel.

Alguses pelgasin veidi kuid maniküüri tegemise lõppedes tõdesin, et tegemist on väga ilusa ja isuäratava lakiga :)

Küüntel kaks kihti Essie lakki ja üks kiht Seche Vite Dry Fast pealislakki.

Today I have two coats of Essie Lady Godiva nailpolish and one coat of Seche Vite Dry Fast top coat on my nails.
To me it looks like I have dipped my nails in dark chocolate. Yum! :)

NOTD: Essie Over the top

Minu armastus mudakarva küünelakkide vastu on lõputu :)

Küüntel kaks kihti Essie Over the top küünelakki ja 1 kiht Seche Vite Dry Fast pealislakki.

I just love muddy colour on nails :)

On my nails: 2 coats of Essie Over the top and 1 coat of Seche Vite Dry Fast top coat.

NOTD: Oriflame Deep Plum

Küüntel on kaks kihti Oriflame Pure Colour küünelakki toonis Deep Plum ja üks kiht Seche Vite Dry Fast pealislakki.

Toon on täpselt minu teetass :)

On my nails: two coats of Oriflame Pure Colour nailpolish in Deep Plum and one coat of Seche Vite Dry Fast topcoat.

These type of nailpolishes are exactly my cup of tea :)

NOTD: Oriflame Berry Intense

Küüntel on kolm kihti Oriflame'i küünelakki toonis Berry Intense ja üks kiht Seche Vite pealislakki :)

Three coats of Oriflame nail polish in Berry Intense with one coat of Seche Vite Dry Fast top coat :)

Essie - Over the top

I am a big fan of dark nailpolishes, so one night I decided to try out this shimmering mud colour from Essie called Over The Top. I have two coats of nailpolish on my nails covered with one coat of Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat, which is my holy grail nail product :) I've had this polish on for 4 days now, so I highly recommend it :)

Olen suur mudakarva küünelakkide armastaja, seega valisin ühel ööl oma kollektsioonist sillerdava porivärvi (kas pori saab üldse sillerdada? :D ) Essie küünelaki toonis Over The Top. Kandsin küünele kaks kihti küünelakki ja ühe kihi Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat pealislakki. Tulemust näed pildilt ning suureks boonuseks see, et lakk on peal püsinud juba 4 päeva. Soovitan soojalt! :)
