China Glaze - Anchors Away - Below Deck

Dear readers

Sorry sorry, my boyfriend returned from his holiday and I spend whole weekend with him and had no time to blog. So more posts for today!

I want to start with one of my favorite nailpolishes of the moment. This is China Glaze - Below Deck. It is the weird grey-purple color that we all love. Many brands offer this color or one that is very close to it. To be honest I did not compare it to other colors before I bought it. So there is no reason why I choose for China Glaze, but it works great!

Essie - Winter 2011 - Bangle Jangle

Dear reader

My boyfriend is back home from this holiday. I missed him so much! Now I am all happy again, even through there is so much snow + coldness here. It is so fun to be so in love.

Today I want to show you Essie - Bangle Jangle. When I saw this one I knew I had to have it. But the color is a little different in the bottle then on the nails, and you know what? I liked it even more on the nails. It is more a lilac grey than just a lilac. It is great!

Essie - Fall 2010 - Merino Cool

Dear readers

The next nailpolish I will discuss with you has alot of 'almost-dupes'. Almost every brand own a bottle with this color, or at least very close to it. This is the more taupe/brown version of this grey purple. I was surprised how dark it became on the nail, not as a bad thing, but I just expected it to be lighter.

BB Couture - A Touch Of Greece - Gaia

Dear readers

Wow what a great respons already on my giveaway! Thank you so much! This is the reason why I wanted to host a giveaway like this, because you are all so supporting and kind!

Today I want to show you Gaia. This is a green nailpolish from the A Touch Of Greece collection from BB Couture. Do you know what is a little strange? When I look at the pictures I see a green with silver shimmer, but there is not really silver shimmer, it is gold. It is like a light version of Caterpillar, only a little more frosted. It is so gorgeous, but in real life it is even prettier.

Zoya - Sunshine - Rica

Dear readers

It is so terribly cold here! brr.. I want to think of the summer! And when I think of the summer I think of hot glowing nailpolish for example Zoya - Rica. I thought I would like Apple the best of the Sunshine collection. But maybe is Rica even better! It is not a standard color I would choose, but when I tried it I was in love.

China Glaze - Wizard Of Ooh Ahz - Cowardly Lyin'

Dear readers

Today I had to do an presentation in English with a friend and we did a very good job! :)

Now there is one more day of study tomorrow and the day after tomorrow I have my last exam.

My internship starts monday and that is just something I have been waiting for this whole year! So I cannot wait till I can start!

This is another China Glaze Wizard Of Ooh Ahz Returns nailpolish. It is the yellow gold version of C-C-Courage. The shade doesn't match so well with my skintone, but it is a wonderfull nailpolish. If I was a little more tanned it would be great.
