Chanel Fall 2011: Nail Polish in Peridot

Salve ragazzi, la scorsa settimana ho finalmente messo le mani su uno smalto che desideravo da tanto tanto tempo, lo Chanel Peridot. So che spendere più di 20 euro per uno smalto è da pazzi, ma ho pensato che il colore fosse unico e ho dovuto prenderlo. Il Peridot è uno smalto duochrome, a seconda della luce può sembrare oro o verde. Ha un finish metallico ed è molto luminoso, inoltre dura tantissimo su di me, quasi una settimana; cosa da non credere perché mi mangio le unghie ogni volta che posso.

I pro:

- Il colore stupendo

-La durata (fino a 7 giorni con un top coat)

I contro:

- Il prezzo

Hello guys! Last week I bought a gorgeous nail polish I've been wanting since I saw the ad: Chanel in Peridot. This is the first time I spend 20 euros on a nail polish and I know it's crazy, but I honestly thought this color was so unique and I had to get it.

It is a green based gold, It kinda has a duochrome effect, It can look either gold or green. It's metallic and so shiny, It lasts almost a week, which is a record for me cause I bite my nail everytime I get the chance.

Pros:

- Beautiful color

- Lasting power

Cons:

- Price

Rating: 9/10

Love you guys!

Nails Trend Fall/Winter 2010: Essence n°62 Must Have - Gunmetal Grey Colors

I love Essence nail polishes! they are cheap but for such a small price they are really great quality. A couple of weeks ago I bought this Essence Multi Dimension XXXL Shine in the color n°62 Must-Have. It's a pretty gunmetal dark grey color, perfect for fall and winter. Grey is definitely in this season, and this is one of the prettiest shades I found on the market.
The finish is metallic but there's no shimmer in it. It is pretty pigmented as you can see in the photo and that's only one coat of it.
I used an Essence Top Coat over it and it held pretty well.

What do you think about it?

Price: 1.99€ in EU.

Fall/Winter 2010 Nail Polishes: E.l.f gold nail polish in Blush

Gold nail polishes are very in this fall/winter 2010. I bought this E.L.F Nail polish in Blush last year I think, but I didn't really used it until yesterday. I fell in love with it, it's a beautiful gold color with a bit of pink, almost a ROSE GOLD color.
It took me two coats to have the color you see in the picture, but I like opaque coverage. I adore E.l.f Nail polishes, they're cheap and they last more than my Mac ones.

Price: 1.50£ in UK, 1.70€ in EU, 1$ in US.

Fall/Winter 2010 Nail Polishes: E.l.f Mod Mauve

Mauve is definitely a trendy color this fall/winter 2010. I bought this nail polish this summer, but I used it only recently and I really love it. It's a perfect color that goes with every outfit (black, brown, bright colors). It is a brownish/mauve color, neutral but still fun. I adore E.l.f nail polishes, they're cheap and they last quite a while.

Looks I love #2: Classy Hilary Duff

I love this Hilary look. Maybe my readers have noticed that I like classy looks.

-Shiny, retrò kind of man shoes are really in this fall and I love that they have no strings.

-The mini tweed skirt it's classy vintage but modern at the same time.

-The cardigan it's preppy and it gives a touch of casualty to the look.

I would have paired a shiny black bag with this outfit, but It's pretty cute anyway.

What do you think?

Nails Trend Fall/Winter 2010: Essence Matt Top Coat Nail Polish

The fall nails trend seem to be a matte look, so when I saw the essence matt top coat I decided to try it because I love essence and it was so cheap, only 1,99€. I tried it and it looks so funny, I don't know maybe I'm not used to have opaque nails, I'm not quite sure if I like them or not. The essence top coat it's really nice though. Have you tried other brands matte top coat?

Here's what essence website says about it: "Now it’s easy to get the ultimate matt-trend for all your nail polishes! the top coat contains special mattifying ingredients that remove gloss and shimmer from your nail polish. simply apply over the desired nail polish, leave to dry, and get sensational results!"

Let me know what you think. I'll post some photos later because my camera just broke :(

Mac Cosmetics: Fabulous Felines Collection - SuperSlick Liquid Eyeliner in Smoky Heir

I love love love this eyeliner. Friday I went to Mac and I picked up two eyeliner from the new collection Fabulous Feline. The eyeliner were recommended to me by one of the Mac makeup artist. She told me that this new formula is a lot better than the old one, but I can't compare it because I never tried their liquid eyeliners. I bought Smoky Heir and Signature Blue. In this article I want to talk about Smoky Heir. This eyeliner is really good, I tried to wore it yestarday to test the results and I was really pleased with it.

Upside:
- It lasts all day! It doesn't fade or smudge.
- It's easy to use and very very precise
- The color is beautiful, it is a deep purple with pink and blue micro glitter inside!
- The handle is awesome, it gives you a lot of control.

Downside:

- If you want a rich rich color you have to layer it a couple of time.

In the pictures you can also see the look I created with it. That pic was taken after 6 hours I put it on and as you can see, It lasted pretty well!

The products I used for the look are:
- Mac Paint Pot in Bare Study
- Mac eyeshadow in Electra on the lid
- Mac eyeshadow in Copperplate in the crease
- Mac eyeshadows in Vapour and Mylar on the browbone
- Kiko Volume Attraction Mascara
- Benefit EyeBright on the waterline
