Nail Polish reviews, nail art and more

I already mentioned this nude polish several days ago. That time I wanted to swatch it, but couldn’t open the bottle :( Dennis came home and the problem was solved, but it was too late anyway. So here it is now – Canberra’t Without You from OPI Australia collection of Spring 2007:

Last summer when I was looking for legwarmers to wear with my white shorts and light pink sandals, I stumbled upon a small knitting shop at the local mall. There I saw a yarn of the color I really liked, and I though it would be great to knit a pair of legwarmers with it. I am not an experienced knitter, but I know some basic stiches and I can knit simple things like scarves or hand/leg warmers. So long story short, I bought the yarn.
Today, when I painted my nails with Essence #75 Princess Prunella I noticed how nice they go together :)

The name says at all – this deep blue shimmer is really Hard to Resist :) I had to buy it as soon as I saw it on the Essence display at the local cosmetic store.

Russian Navy – OPI NL R54

February 7th, 2012 | Posted by Mari in Nail Polish Swatches - (2 Comments)

Russian Navy is from the OPI Russian collection for Fall/Winter 2007. As far as I know, now it’s a part of the OPI Classic colors and recently it’s been included in the OPI Best of the Best mini set. I have a soft spot for deep blue nail polishes, that’s why I had to buy a full-sized bottle of this truly magical color :)

Today’s post is all about pink :) I’m wearing Twisted Pink from Sally Hansen’s Xtreme Wear line. They say pink nail polishes are best suited to months when the flowers grow… and look what I have! Gerberas!
Gerbera’s my most favorite flower, I love their vibrant colors and simplistic yet exotic form, but I love them even more when they are from him ♥

Almost black Fabuless is one of the dark shades from the Essence Colour & Go line. I got this one at the local store for just $2.

This post was going to be one of those typical nail polish reviews with a couple of pics and a short description, until somebody messed it all up…
But let’s begin at the beginning :) Take a look at my NOTD – You Rock-apulco Red by OPI (2 coats, daylight):

Today’s post is about a Dance Legend nail polish. It is a Russian professional brand and it’s widely available in Russia. These polishes are quite expensive, about $5-10 per standard bottle depending on the line – there are duochromes, cracks, thermo and magnetic polishes, as well as creams, glitters and shimmers. I read somewhere that all of them are big3free.

I’m not really sure if Dance Legend polishes are sold in any other country besides Russia. Actually I doubt that you guys have seen, heard or tried it… Have a look at its bottle and brush:
