There are three shades in Essie‘s winter collection 2009.
mint candy apple – creme de menthe mint
lollipop – candy cane red
rock candy – sweet treat pink
Mint Candy Apple is a favourite of mine from this collection. There are a lot of mint shades coming up lately, but I don’t mind. I love them all! Although some of them (or maybe most of them) make my hands look red. I really don’t mind, because I love the color so much!
Lollipop is a pretty classic creme red, with a hint of orange to it. The application was great. No problems with it at all. Although it’s well pigmented, it’s one of those reds, which doesn’t cover the VNL completely even after two coats. Two coats shown in the pictures.
And now for the fun part or as I mentioned in the heading … a BONUS part!
First, I’d like to ask you for help. Namely, I wanted to do a manicure, which would contain all three polishes reviewed above, but my mind went blank and the creativity has left the building. I know, you can make a great manicure with the combination of mint, red and pinky shade, but … I couldn’t come up with a decent idea. :unsure: Here is what I ask from you …
Please, send your suggestions for a manicure made with all the three polishes shown above on my e-mail maestra
parokeets.com. Use your imagination and find your creativity!
I’ll choose from all the suggestions one manicure, that would speak to me the most. I’ll try to recreate (with a hint of my interpretation) the suggested manicure and I’ll show it to you. :wink:
You have time until Sunday, 31.1.2010 until 23:59 (GMT+1).
And of course the creative mastermind won’t leave empty handed. The owner of the chosen suggestion will receive …
Thank you, Čarodejka for your contribution!

Mint Candy Apple je moj favorit iz te kolekcije. Zadnje čase je prava poplava mint odtenkov, kar me ne moti, ker jih obožujem. Sicer mi marsikateri mint odtenek ne pristoji najbolje, a se s tem ne obremenjujem. :blush:
Lollipop je dokaj klasična krem rdeča, ki potegne rahlo na oranžno. Nanaša se zelo lepo. Gre pa za eno tistih rdečih, pri kateri se po dveh plasti konice še zmeraj rahlo vidijo.
Za konec pa še BONUS!!!
Najprej bi vas prosila za pomoč. Namreč, želela sem narediti manikuro, v kateri bi uporabila vse tri odtenek, a se nisem spomnila nič zanimivega ali uporabnega. Kreativnost me je kar naenkrat zapustila, čeprav vem, da se iz teh odtenkov da narediti precej zanimivega … Moja prošnja za vas:
Na mail maestra
parokeets.com mi pošljite predloge za manikuro, ki naj bo sestavljena iz vseh treh zgoraj opisanih odtenkov. Pustite domišljiji prosto pot!
Izmed vseh prejetih predlogov, bom izbrala enega, ki me bo najbolj prepričal. Izbrano manikuro bom poskušala realizirati s kančkom svoje interpretacije. :nails:
Časa imate do nedelje, 31.1.2010 do 23:59.
Vaš trud bo seveda nagrajen! Izbrani predlog, ki ga bom tudi predstavila v prispevku, bo nagrajen s setom minijev, ki ga je prijazno prispevala Čarodejka! :w00t:
Sodeluje lahko kdorkoli. Edini pogoj je, da ste “Follower”. V mail mi prosim dopišite še, s katerim nickom in e-mail-om ste “follower”.
Želela bi vas pa še spomniti, da še vedno poteka igrica Praznujmo skupaj, v kateri imate priložnost dobiti Zoya lake za nohte! Več o tem si lahko preberete TUKAJ.
This was a riveting read, it enlightened me to many aspects which i have previously overlooked.
Se opravičujem, ker tako dolgo traja. :blush: Prejšnji teden nisem imela doma “pravega” fotoaparata, za vikend pa me ni bilo doma. Jutri pa res bo. ;)
sedaj pa že res komaj čakam kakšna manikura bo nastala s teh treh lepotcev :nails:
vsi trije so lepi :wub: sploh mint :w00t:
komaj čakam, da vidim kakšno kombinacijo boš ustvarila :wink:
Love Mint Candy apple. But the oddest things happens when I apply it: It gets two-three shades darker and very neon. Not at all as the swatches I see. It looks great on you!
Po tem prispevku pa res moram naročiti tegale mintija :wub:
Lollipop :wub:
Kakšna super igrica, škoda da ne smem sodelovati :cry: :whistle: :wink:
Jaz imam iz te kolekcije le mintyja … zdaj pa me še rock candy mika =))
