TOP 5 NAIL POLISH COLOURS! Collab video!



ENG: Hello loves! It's time to bring back beauty posts here on my blog! I like to have the variety of topics to write about here on my blog, but lately I was more focused on fashion aspect of my blog, than anything else! I neglected the whole beauty aspect of my blog and now I feel like balancing those two big passions of mine again in my blogging adventures :-)

Today's post is related to a recent collab video that I uploaded on my youtube channel and it was about TOP 5 BEAUTY PRODUCTS.
I did this collab with six other youtubbers, and my topic was to show you my top 5 fave nail polish colors! Narrowing it down to only 5 wasn't an easy task, but somehow I managed to do it!
I tried to select some colours that I love for spring/summer, and some that I wear mostly in autumn/winter time. 

I hope you enjoy watching this video & please subscribe to my youtube channel if you haven't yet!



HR; Pozdrav ljepotice! Moji beauty postovi se vracaju! Moram priznati da sam u zadnje vrijeme vise paznje pridavala modnom aspektu mog bloga, a zanemarila sve beauty teme koje sam nastavila obradjivati na mojem youtube kanalu.
Buduci da volim imati raznoliki sadrzaj na blogu, nastojati cu od sada izbalansirati moje dvije strasti: modu i ljepotu, tako da i vama blog bude sto zanimljiviji i sadrzajniji!

Danasnja tema jesu mojih TOP 5 nijansi lakova za nokte! To je video collab kojega sam prosli tjedan objavila na engleskom youtube kanalu! 
Video je napravljen u suradnji sa jos sest youtuberica iz Amerike i Kanade, a tema nama svima bila je izabrati nasih top 5 beauty proizvoda.
Ja sam izabrala temu lakova za nokte; izabrati samo 5 omiljenih nije bio lak zadatak, ali uspjela sam!...nakon duzeg razmisljanja, haha...

Na temu collab videa zeljela sam jos napisati da je to odlican nacin upoznavanja kolegica youtuberica, razmjene savjeta i promicanja vlastitog, ali i tudjih kanala. Ja vec dugo radim collab videe na engleskom kanalu, ali voljela bih napraviti i collab na hrvatskom kanalu! Ukoliko i vi imate youtube kanal i zeljele biste raditi collabe, javite mi se, biti ce mi jako drago!

A sada,  mojih TOP 5...

Grow Stronger Nails With OPI Nail Envy!

Hello dolls!


This post is for all my beauty product addicts! :)

I came across this awesome nail strengthener, by OPI, and as this one actually worked & showed amazing results, after a few weeks of testing it out, I knew I had to share it with you!

In the past, I have tried a lot of nail strengtheners, from low cost brands, to high end ones...(essence, deborah, mavala, alessandro...) nothing seemed to be working!
I even tried taking food supplements for my nails...sometimes this would helped a bit...but NOTHING showed such an amazing results, as the OPI ORIGINAL NAIL ENVY!





Check out why I love this product so much, in my review video!





OPI Original Nail Envy
Natural Nail Strengthener
Maximum Strength Formula (with exclusive ProWide brush, for better application!)

Original Nail Envy
Maximum strength formula with hydrolyzed wheat protein & calcium

I bought this product in Muller beauty store in Croatia, as I couldn't find it at my local Sephora in Italy...

I heard so many good reviews about this product, from other beauty bloggers, so I really, really wanted to try out this product myself, as my nails were going through a bad period, and nothing seemed to be able to help them out in "recovering"...

When I found out the price of this nail strengthener was around 30€ (a bit more than 200kn, in croatian currency...)...my heart skipped a beat!
But as I really wanted to try this product out (I trusted all these positive reviews I've read about it!), I decided to take a chance and buy it anyway!

Luckily, it really paid off, because after just a few weeks of application, I started noticing visible results of improvement in the appearance, strength and length of my nails!

Here is how I tried to justify having spent 30€ on a bottle of a nail strengthener, to myself:
Instead of going to the nail salon to get my nails done, or put a gel coat on them, I "invested" the money in the OPI Nail Envy, and now I have beautiful, natural, long & strong nails! :)
This explanation does make sense, doesn't it? ;)

Now I could really recommend this nail strengthener to anybody who is struggling with weak nails that break easily.

I don't know the price of it in Italy, because I wasn't able to track it down, but, from one of my american subscribers, I found out this product is much cheaper in the USA!
In Ulta it retails at about 17$ (whereas the regular OPI color nail polishes are around 9$ each!).
As OPI is made in the USA, it does make sense that it costs less there...but I wasn't expecting the difference in price to be soo huge!

This summer, I was using OPI nail envy + OPI alpine snow and I really loved this look on my nails! :)

You can use the Nail Envy as a base coat, but also as a top coat, to make the colour of your regular nail polish last longer!

Here is what the instructions for application say:

"For maximum results, apply two coats of Original Nail Envy to each nail. Then, apply one coat every other day. After one week, use any OPI Polish Remover to remove all nail lacquer (if present) and Original Nail Envy. Begin application again. Original Nail Envy works best as a base coat in actual contact with the natural nail. It can also be used as a top coat over nail lacquer."

1.) To apply, begin at the center of the nail, approximately 1/32" from the cuticle. Let the bristles fan out for maximum coverage. With one smooth stroke, brush out to the free edge.

2.) Apply to each side of the initial brush stroke, overlapping slightly.



Ingredients:

ethyl acetate, butyl acetate, nitrocellulose, propyl acetate, tosylamide/formaldehyde resin, isopropyl alcohol, triphenyl phosphate, trimethyl pentanyl diisobutyrate, butyl alcohol, formaldehyde,stearalkonium bentonite, camphor, diacetone alcohol, ethyl tosylamide, benzophenone-1, citric acid, hydrolized wheat protein, dimethicone, calcium pantothenate, CI 60725 (violet 2), CI 77891 (Titanum Dioxide).


I hope this review was helpful to you!
