Two favorites <3

Posted Thursday, March 4th, 2010

And I am not talking about any polishes here :P But one of my favorite shows ever has to be The Daily Show with Jon Stewart and one of my new favorites actors has to be Robert Pattinson, so the two of them together cant be other than great ;)

Wohoo I’m not old!

Well at least not old enough to not hear this teenager sound! The test will produce a tone that is generally only heard by people under the age of 25. It has been used as a deterrent device to keep teenagers from loitering in malls and shops, and sounds similar to a buzzing mosquito. The elderly and people with hearing damage often cannot hear the sound. Nice to know I am not that old :P Click on the box and get your youth back haha :D

The Teenager Audio Test - Can you hear this sound?

Hope you are having a nice day out there on the interwebs! :)

Oh noes!

I sinned! I shopped! But only for some necessities! I was out of mascara and at the pharmacy I saw this cuticle creme so had to get it, cause of the extra dry skin right now. And for the polishes… its not even for me! Its for you! Someone out there can win this. I plan on doing a giveaway when I reach 200 followers here on the blog :) So if any of you are reading here, but haven’t signed up through the Google Friend connect thingy in the side, now is a great time for doing just so :)

I made the picture black and white on purpose so the colors of the polishes would be a surprise for when I announce the giveaway :P And of course since I can see most of you like creme polishes I got just the opposite ;D Nah I think you will like these :D

Thank you for reading :)

Mate a movie!

Posted Tuesday, February 16th, 2010

I’m sick so in random boredomness I fell over this site. It’s called Mate a movie and the concept is mate two or more movies, combined to make one much funnier movie. Think there are some great entries :D Maybe a bit overload on the Avatar side :P I still plan to do some polish stuff this week just waiting to feel a bit better and hoping to get some sun also.. This winter is beginning to be very annoying, slse I will have to get some old pictures out :(

Show me your bedside table!

Posted Friday, January 29th, 2010

With inspiration from the lovely Kia on Fierceogfattig.blogspot.com I thought I wanted to show what was on mine and not just write it in a comment ;) So here you go!

I have some anti cold stuff, cause I had a soar throat and running nose recently. Including a cool Kleenex holder thingy I bought real cheap a couple of years ago. Then a lot of books. I am in to the mysteries and chick books. Like shopaholic and such (hated the movie btw!)  Some body lotion, I often go straight from the bath into the bed again and wrapping myself completely in with towels and then under the sheets till I am dry. So I put the body lotion on in here :D And then I have my jewelry box(black thing bottom right) and some magazines. And in the back I can spot some stuffed animals that’s been tucked away.. on purpose :P I usually read when I go to bed, but because my boyfriend cant sleep with the lights on (whats up with that?? :P) I have to put the book away when he comes to bed, but I read to the next chapter before putt the book away. And then he wants to be all serious and read to.. haha and then he takes out a children’s book one of his friends gave him for a fun birthday present a couple of years ago. The title is on English: Story Of The Little Mole Who Knew It Was None Of His Business
But on danish its a totally different title.. roughly translated its called: The mole who wanted to know who pooped on his head… So I couldn’t really take him that serious with a mole with a poop on his head in the background! :P

Anyone who reads this can consider them selves tagged! Could be interesting haha ;D And if you do make it link back so I can read it :)

Most patient cat ever!

I don’t know why.. but I thought of Nihrida and her cats, when I saw this :P Hehe

I was lucky enough to get sent this product for review from the manufacturer* so here is my pictures of them and thoughts :)

I don’t know why but when I see the colors from this collection I think about the circus and fun and summer. And I don’t even like clowns that much :P They are scary :( But the colors still cheer me up and with all this winter and snow and cold, its much needed! That’s for sure.

First up is Happy Go Lucky – its a creme and applies really well, but needed two coats for total coverage. It could be that I apply a fairly thin first coat, but I like to put it on thinner because there is a less chance of bubbles :) But back to the polish. I really like it and even though yellow is not one of my favorite colors so I am pretty sure this is one that will pop up during spring and summer!

Then we have Heli-yum – also a creme. As with most red/pinks I find it very hard to capture. As you can see on the first picture the bottle color is slightly more pinkish than the color on the nails. But its really depending on which light is on and the surroundings. But nevertheless I love pinks and this one is a definite keeper ;) A girl cant have to many pinks!

Four Leaf Clover – or the chameleon as I like to call it. This is also a creme, I actually think the full collection is all cremes, but not entirely sure. It applies really well, I think one coat did the job here and ½ coat for finishing touches. And now look at the 3 pictures below. Of the same polish. Notice any difference? Just click to make them bigger, had to make them tiny so they could fit besides each other. Amazing how a color can be so versatile. Blue, green and minty. And when I look at it in real life it looks more like grass green.. I think these are some great colors and I am sure these and many of the pastels that there are out will be good this upcoming season :) I am gonna put this one on the toes for sure! :P And I would definitely recommend this for Sct. Pattys day ;)

And to finish off I have taken a picture with no flash, the only light is a desk lamp. I honestly think this is the most accurate shot of the colors, except of the Heli-Yum, where the top picture is the best.
Have you found your spring colors yet?
