Color Club - Blossoming - Hydrangnea Kiss

Dear readers

Sometimes I have my doubts about color club, because the first two nailpolishes I bought from this brand were pretty bad. Everytime I try a Color Club I still have the bad experiences in my mind, but I think I had just bad luck with those, because Color Club makes real nice nailpolishes! For example Hydrangnea Kiss (horrible name to write :p). It is a gorgeous blue/lavender color. Sweet color for spring and summer.

Zoya - Feel - Avery

Dear readers

Almost weekend! Tomorrow we go to see Kloenie. Kloenie is our labrador retriever puppy. At this moment she is 6,5 weeks old. Between the 17th and the 22th we can bring her home. I am so excited! Just a little more patience.

While waiting I can write some more reviews :D For example about Avery. I thought this was going to be such a color that should match with the skintone, but it is weird but it matcht mine! Did any of you had problems with this one? I did not and I am very happy about it. It is nude and chic, perfect.
