NOTD - Essie "Merino Cool"

During my trip to Brussels I bought my first Essie nail polish and I chose this purple grayish number. It's a great shade for autumn/ winter, very glossy, with a staying power of around five days without chipping. Personally, I love purple nail polishes for all seasons because I think they look great on the nails and "Merino Cool" from Essie makes no exception. I have two coats on my nails in the pictures below and as you can see they are enough to obtain an opaque shade. However, in case you want the colour to be even more intense, you can apply another coat without fearing that it would look too thick. All in all, a lovely nail polish which has quickly become one of my favourite shades for the cold season!

 

What do you think? What's you favourite autumn/ winter nail polishes? x

NOTD - O.P.I. Malaysian Mist

Today I wanted to show you my favourite nail polish at the moment, which is Malaysian Mist by O.P.I. It is a gorgeous pastel peachy colour with a glossy finish. It is a a bit sheer, therefore it requires about three coats in order to become opaque, but the result is gorgeous. 

Even though it is a bit annoying to apply three coats of nail polish, as I said, it's still my current favourite summer nail polish due to its beautiful colour, but things might change after I'll devastate pay a visit to the new Nails Inc counter over at Sephora. I can't wait to buy a few shades since I've been waiting for such a long time for the Nails Inc polishes to be available in our country.

Do you have any summer nail polish recommendation for me?

NOTD - Road House Blues by OPI

Hello guys!

It's time for a new NOTD!  I've been wanting a dark blue nail polish for ages because 1. I love dark nail polishes and 2. one of my favourite colours is dark blue. And I was lucky to find just the perfect shade at OPI!  Therefore, I present to you Road house blues from their latest collection, Touring America .

Two coats is all you need to get this great colour. I simply love it and I'm sure I'm gonna wear it like crazy this winter!

Also, I wanted to show you a few glimpses of my beautiful flowers. I think this is the best thing about anniversaries: all the flowers you get (and presents too, who am I kindding? :))!

Aren't they beautiful? :)

Have a great weekend!

NOTD - Percolated Pink

Today I have a quick NOTD for you, guys. The nail polish which I'm going to show you is from Max Factor, shade  no. 732 "Percolated Pink" from their nailfinity range . This is one of my favourite colours of all time and I have been repurchasing it ever since it appeared one or two years ago. I simply love the colour...it's a dusty pink and you can wear it no matter the season you're in. It love the fact that it looks so elegant on my nails but also the fact that it has a good staying power of almost a week. Moreover it comes with a nice price tag too. It costs around 7 euros and bearing in mind its lasting power, the good quality, the nice shine and the lovely colour it's not much at all.

This is one nail polish I'll definitely keep repurchasing because I absolutely like everything about it!

Lots of kisses

NOTD - Seventeen Supreme No. 18

Hey guys!

I just wanted to show you my new favourite nail polish. I received quite a few compliments when I was wearing it and I decided to make a little post about it in case you are interested in buying it. It is from Seventeen (a Greek company) but I'm not sure which exactly are the countries which sell their products. Luckily I can find Seventeen products where I live, which is great because they have lovely products at relatively low prices. This particular nail polish costs about 4 euros and it's shade number 18 from their Supreme nail polish collection.  Even though I'm an OPI fan (who isn't?) I can honestly say that there is almost no difference between these two brands. The colours are gorgeous and plenty to choose from, they have a good lasting power (almost a week) and they have a nice shine. The only thing I don't like is the strong smell, but at 4 euros what can I ask?

Sooo, the shade in question (no. 18) has a weird (but gorgeous) colour because it's a combination of beige and grey with a hint of purple. It looks great and even though it's a great colour for autumn and winter I think it can be worn in any season.

(in real life it has a bit more beige to it)

What are your favourite nail polish colours for this season?

Lots of kisses
