Hello :)


Prije malo manje od godinu dana sam dobila predivnu Sleek Berry kolekciju za kojom sam patila, a koju su mi za rođendan (uz ostale divne stvarčice) poklonile moje krasne babe sa Četa koji ne Šteka (interna) :D
Sad je napokon došlo vrijeme da je i vama pokažem :)
Usput, obojila sam kosu u crno (koja se ispire na smeđe sa svakim pranjem) tako da i to možete primjetiti na slikama :D

A bit less than a year ago my awesome friends got me for my birthday the amazing Sleek Berry Collection that I wished for a long time, and now it's finally time for me to show it to you :D
Also, my hair is black now (and is turning brown with every washing) so that is something you may notice on the photos :D

:morticia:



Sleek set se sastoji od olovke za oči u nijansi Mossberry, rumenila u nijansi Fenberry te mat ruža u nijansi Cranberry. Katie ima krasne swatcheve, koje možete pogledati ovdje :)

Sleek collection contains a eye pencil in Mossberry, blusher in Fenberry and matte lipstick in Cranberry. Katie has some great swatches which you can check out here :)

  • Kanebo Sensai Smoothening water make-up base

Hello :)


Pripremam post o Illamasqua Zygomaticu i Apocalipsu, ali ne mogu čekat da ih postam pa evo jedan brzi look, čisto da vidite kako dobro idu zajedno :)
Usput, danas sam bila kod frizera (idem u Royal, koje apsolutno preporučam ;) ), a to znači da je isušenoj, ispucaloj kosi odzvonilo :)

I'm preparing a post about Illamasqua Zygomatic and Apocalips, but I couldn't wait so here is a sneak peek of how they look amazing together :)
Also, I just got a new haircut, which means no more dried out, split ends :)






Puno pozdrava i laku noć :*

Hello :)

Instead of editing the last post, I wanted to put all of the "my hair color" pics in one place :)






Remember this post here?
The end result was this:



It was a bit too dark for my liking so I did another soap-cap and got this:


Pretty cool color, but it was dull, considering it was essentially just a bleached hair it had no natural shine.

After dying my hair with Country colors no.45 Toscana Herbsrot, I got this:




I love how shiny my hair looks, and in the sun I look like orange on fire :D

Sadly, to keep this color, I would have to bleach my roots quite often, so I will dye my hair next week with the same hair-dye and that's it.
Bye-bye redhead clan...hello boring brunettes :(

On the brighter side, I will have more time to obsess over make-up and nail polish, and that means no more hair posts :D

Thank you for reading,
Nic
Hello, guys :)

Thank you for entering my giveaway, and here's a hug for all of the new GFC and Twitter followers 

Sorry for radio silence, but I've been away for a few days, and I didn't take any new photos.
Yesterday, my postman brought me my INM fast dry top coat so finally I can do proper manicures.
In the meantime, I have a random stuff post for you today.

I promised my boyfriend that I will stop dying my hair, because I love Karen Gillan's hair color, but I thought that could never happen. And then I browsed forum.hr I saw that one girl got the exactly the same shade as Amy Pond, by soap-capping and than dying her hair with Country colors no.45.

Guess what...I'm gingerish now 

 I don't have the after-dying-with-Country-colors photos, but I have those I snapped after soap-cap. Somehow I got really cool orange hair :D

Check it out:

Wet hair



It was a tad lighter than it is in the photos, though.

Now, this is what I wanted:

I will add the "after" pics tomorrow, since I haven't had enough daylight for proper shooting.


In the other news, for the second time in my life, I baked muffins.
First ones were supposed to be sour cherry muffins, but somehow they were mushy and ended up in the trash.

But the other ones....WOW...
Go to the Just cake the Cupcake blog and among all the other amazing recipes you will find the one for these EPIC Choco muffins.

Yummy!
They are so delicious, especially after some time in the fridge, when the chocolate hardens a bit :)



This nail polish right here is a perfect creme red. I'm in love with this one, seriously. I will make a proper swatch, but for now, check this one out :)

It's e.l.f. Light red nail polish.
It dries fast, has great coverage, and lasts up to 4 days without top coat, at least on my nails.


This is it for now, I can't wait to start playing with my Inglot flakies :)
And now I have my INM, I plan to swatch all the nail polishes I got while without fast drying top coat, and that means a ton of new shades :)

I also plan to do a giveaway with some of the Inglot flakies in the future, would you like that? :)

Thank you for reading,
Nic


Hello :)

As many of you know, a month ago I experimented with my hair.
I went from black to red, because I wanted to experience the red hair once more before I stop messing with my hair for good.

I started dying my hair red when I was 13 ( my mom helped me), and my hair was red or black most of my high school days. At the first year of university, my hair was elbow-length, and I dyed the front of my hair (bangs) blood red, and the rest of it black, which was awesome :)

The problem was that the black washed off very soon, and the red persisted so at the end of my first year uni I had terribly dry long hair with red stains ( I really hated having my hair cut, so I didn't for 10 months).
At that moment I finally decided enough is enough, got a great haircut and a dye job at the hair salon and I was finally back to my natural hair color.

That lasted for about 5 years, and the last summer I started to mess with my hair, again.
I wanted to dye my hair purple without having to use bleach, but after months of experimenting with different hair colors I accepted defeat and dyed my hair black.

Now, this is where the "before" picture was taken :)
Sorry for the messy hair, I took this pic right before I went to bleach my hair.

Before
I was a real noob when it comes to bleaching my hair so I followed FaithFry's guide to soap-capping  :)


I used 6% peroxyde because I didn't want to damage my hair more than necessary. I made the mixture, applied it, and waited for about 30 minutes, washed it off, let it dry and this was the result:

With flash, more realistic color

I didn't go blonde, but this was a huge success :)
Next day I dyed my hair red, but took the picture 2 weeks after that because I forgot :D






The only hairdresser I trust with my hair lives in my hometown, so I got a new haircut :)



When I came back from the vacation, the color was completely washed off, and my hair had grown some more, so I had dark roots showing. I dyed my hair again with the same color but now it's much more red than before.





Well, that's it :)
My boyfriend loves my natural hair color and I promised him that I will stop experimenting with my hair but I love how the red hair goes with my tanned complexion :)

Thank you for reading,
Nic
