Vi tager lige en hurtig dagens neglelak fordi i dag skal jeg slappe helt af.. nå ja en enkelt opvask og et møde på job i to timer.. men ellers helt af…. Og så får jeg besøg af en veninde i aften. Så det bliver bare lige et hurtigt pip fra mig. Jeg har kredset om den her mange gange i Matas og den røg da også ned i kurven som en af de første :P Synes den er så smuk den her farve og så er den jo en rar neglelak når den er fra Nilens Jord. Den er både parfume-, parabene-, toulen- og formaldehyd fri. Og det kan vi jo godt li ;)

Den dækker som det kan ses ved 2 lag, men er næsten sikker på et enkelt tykt lag også kan gøre det.

I have been thinking about getting this color so many times, but never got around to buying it before now. And wow I love it! I think its a really gorgeous color and since its without all of that nasty stuff its even better! Nilens Jord is a Danish make-up brand that was the first to remove perfume in Denmark back in 1997! And since then they where also the first to remove parabens and today their entire collections are without any of that. More info on this brand can be found on kosmetik.dk

Så var det tid til lidt Matas shopping af neglelakker. Det blev til 6 lakke fra forskellige mærker og jeg ville nok have købt lidt mere hvis deres Sally Hansen stand ikke var rippet. Men det blev i alt 435,80 kr. så besparelsen har været 133,95 og den største var på Chanel lakken, som jeg altså sparede 35 kr. på. Og da jeg kom hjem så lå der søreme nogen Depend lakke og ventede i postkassen. Så nu har ligger der rigtig mange lakke i min ene kasse som jeg skal have prøvet efterhånden. I øvrigt lå der i Matas ved kassen en Gosh Extreme Mascara man kunne købe for 30 kr. og med den fulgte der også den røde taske hvor der var en fullsize Gosh Mascara og en Gosh Effect Powder. Så det var gode 30 kr. givet ud :D Og så var jeg inde i Zizzi og få en sludder med de søde piger der og den gode shopping karma slog til igen. Det næst-nederste billede er en lille clutch sat ned fra 400 til 75 kr. og den er i ægte læder :D Så nu kan jeg få min telefon med mig når jeg skal ud hurtigt i stedet for at slæbe min store taske med, yay!
Har i været ude og benytte det gode tilbud i Matas i dag? :)

Did some shopping today ;D A local drug store had 20% discount on all polishes in the shop. So I took some from a bunch of different brands. Would have gotten some more but the Sally Hansen display was empty :( And then I bought a clutch and when I came home there were 6 of the new Depends in my mailbox :D

Nå nu må det da være tid for alle de her forskellige jeg har. Der er lidt at kigge på :) Det er stort set alle forskellige lakke jeg har fået i swaps og et par enkelte jeg selv har købt :) Og her spørg i bare om navnet, der gider jeg ik skrive dem alle på :P

All these are polishes I have gotten from swaps. I think there is like 5 of these I have bought my self :)

Kabuki børste – Ringe fra Gina Tricot – Foundation

I saw a similar post on another nail blog some time ago, I’m sorry I cant remember which. And that made me look at some old photos from when I started blogging until today. And I must say i have improved my polishing skills.. quite a bit ;) I can now make a fresh mani that is not all over my cuticles in about 5-10 minutes.. As to before it took me(If it were to be just a bit nice) about half to a full hour(maybe sometimes even more :o).

So lets see one of the first on the blog

This is if I have to say myself.. awful when i look at it now.. To much of my hand on the picture and polish all over the place.
Although I have never been that bad at putting it on I have never been anywhere near what I see on Scrangie, Vampy Varnish and all the other “pro nailers” out there. Have to be honest I couldn’t even figure out how they could make the manis so nice. Buuut somehow as I’m getting better at putting on polish it stays inside the lines.. so to speak ;) I also used that trick of putting nailoil around the edges but it didn’t really work for me. So I just got a steadier hand which is nice now ;)

Barry M – Limited Edition Pink (don’t really have a name I think)

So to conclude.. i guess practice makes perfect or at least better…. :P
I would love to see some of starter pictures of the nailblogs out there.. Would be fun ;D

Other “fun” facts:

This was my nailcollection in march 2009
Not much there ^^

And this is all my polishes today September 2009
I made a little circle with my Barry M’s :D And i guess its not so hard to guess which color is my favorite ;)

And this is where i store them

The small polkadot bag can hold exactly 12 Barry M’s so i usually take that with me if im going somewhere for a longer period.
I know its not the worlds largest collection, but its so hard to find the good brands in Denmark, have to order them home from US and it can be so damn expensive. So i get my more expensive brands through Nailmail.se(this is such a great concept btw, subscription to nailpolish, sent in the mail to you.. whats not to love? :D).

I was a nail biter until very recently. :o ye I know shocking aint it? :P but somehow when I got more in to polish I just stopped.. have no idea how, guess having some pretty nails was more appealing to me then flossy short nails.

I cut my nail when I think they get to long. I don’t like too long nails… not on me at least.. maybe because I have so chubby fingers.. haha ;D

And I think thats enough with the facts :P

Hope you all have a great weekend!
