After a lot of snoopin’ around my personal nail polish collection, I've came to a conclusion that a certain color group is almost absent. Pastels! I have no idea how this omittance I allowed to occur because I love pastels. Kinda contradictory but pastels and neons are my favorite color groups and I'm really happy about including more pastels (because I got neons covered to a tee!). China Glaze Light As Air is a nail polish I knew about years ago – it truly is one of the shades I'd compare to Essie Lilacism in the sense how well made they both are, how they depict the soulfulness of each brand and their versatility whilst remaining their originality. CG Light As Air was part of the 2010. Up And Away Collection which, coincidentally, was a mix of neon and pastel shades. And this is definitely one of the prettiest pastels – it's creamy, looks cool due to its purple/pale grey undertone but it also has a certain playfulness. It looks like ice cream! It's really a beautiful shade on its own, texture is medium thick but it can be somewhat patchy if you don't pay attention to the application. It dries fast so you need to act fast. However, this is a price I'm willing to pay because I find this color divine. I've decided to spice things with the latest design of my favorite nail art foils – the Essence Nail Art Hello Foils! in 02 Hello Metals. I adore these foils and they're my favorite way of doing nail art – looks like you've tried so hard, right? It was actually done within seconds. And if blue and pink foils weren't enough, I popped pale blue star shaped nail art jewels from the Revelique Nail Art Set (another gem!). Are you a fan of pastels?
Nakon sto sam detaljno pregledala svoju kolekciju lakova za nokte, dosla sam do zakljucka kako je jedna vrsta kolorita gotovo pa odsutna. Pastelne boje! Nisam uopste sigurna ni kako je do toga doslo posto jako volim pastelne boje – stavise, omiljene su mi uz neonce kada su nokti u pitanju tako da sam jako sretna sto sam napravila ovaj uvid i pocela raditi na dopunjavanju kolekcije ovim ljepotanima. Definitivno mi je potrebno vise pastelnih lakova posto neonaca imam u raznolikim nijansama (ponosna sam na njih!). China Glaze Light As Air (kosta 7,50KM preko Facebook stranice Lilocosmetics) je lak za nokte o cijem sam postojanju bila obavijestena prije par godina. Uistinu je jedna od nijansi koju bih usporedila sa npr. Essie Lilacism u smislu njihove prepoznatljivosti, kvaliteti, nacinu na koji odrazavaju ‘dusu’ svakog od ovih brendova ali i po mogucnosti da pristaju razlicitim osobama dok ne gube na originalnosti. CG Light As Air je bio dio 2010. Up And Away kolekcije koja je upravo radjena po mom ukusu – sastoji se iz pastelnih i neonskih tonova. A ovo je bez sumnje jedna od najljepsih pastelnih nijansi koje mozete pronaci – kremasta je, uvijek izgleda moderno, ima neku ‘hladnu’ primjesu zbog blijedo lila/sivkastog podtona ali je na neki svoj nacin i razigrana. Nekada me, iz cista mira, podsjeca na sladoled! Stvarno je divan lak ako ga nosite samostalno ali i u sklopu nail art-a. Tekstura je srednje gusta no nanosenje nije besprijekorno – stvarno se mora obratiti paznja tokom nanosenja posto se brzo susi. Uprkos ne bas idealnoj formulaciji, ja ostajem vjerna ovom laku – primjetiti cete da su slicnog stava mnoge vlasnice ove nijanse (kao da nas je opcinila). Ovom prilikom sam nokte ukrasila novim dizajnom meni najdrazih nail art folija – Essence Nail Art Hello Foils! pod nazivom 02 Hello Metals. Ovo mi je najdrazi nacin da ucinim bilo koji lak posebno zanimljivim i svima djeluje da sam se strasno namucila oko efekta (a znam da je sve bilo gotovo za par sekundi). I kao da plave i pink folije nisu bile dovoljne, na nokte sam polozila po jedan svijetlo plavi ukrasni kamencic u obliku zvjezdice iz Revelique Nail Art seta (jos jedna odlicna kupovina!). Da li ste vi ljubiteljice pastelnih lakovi?
