Comparison: Nubar Vino vs. Jumpy 140

Heya people! How are you on this cold day? We have a little bit of snow in Ljubljana. Nothing major, but it stuck to the ground for a day. Souther Balkan has some serious snow troubles though, as much as I saw, I'm worried that it will get to us too, brrr. 

So, when I wore Jumpy 140, it looked a bit familiar. I knew I didn't have anything like it for sure, but still, it bugged me. Then I remembered why. I think I wore Nubar Vino just days before and the base colour looked very close. So I compared them. 

 Aren't they cute? ^.^

 On these upper pictures, made outside, you can see the base colour is quite close. They're not the same, Jumpy is brighter, but close enough that when you're not wearing them at the same time, they remind you of each other. But here's the thing that Vino doesn't have and that makes Jumpy own his ass:

The mighty DUOCHROME!! Yes!! Jumpy is a duochrome, Vino is not. Here's a seriously bad blurry picture with a bad position of nails, just to show you the difference better:

See it see it see it?

Although I think both colours are fantastic, Jumpy 140 is cleary the winner for me. It's also enough for me to remove Nubar Vino off my WL. The base colours get close enough for my taste, and well, could you say no to the duochrome on top of everything? :) My thanks go to Tevta for letting me play with her Nubars.:)

Thank you for reading!

Vipera Jumpy 140 and 155

Hello darlings! How are you doing? I went jogging again today, yay! I miss going out and run at least for a couple of minutes. Although it was so so cold. I guess winter has finally visited our little country. No snow still though. But let me tell you something! I'll be seriously pissed off if there will be snow in March! I want flowers for my bday, it's not my fault if Winter was late on her own time! :P 

Anyway. Nail polish, right? I have two Polish beauties today for you from my swap with Spooky nails. These two are stunning. Especially 140. Oh. My. God. Look!

 The duochrome, people!

Jumpy 140. Are you insane? Seriously?? This is what I find in a 5 ml bottle of strikingly cheap unknown Polish brand!? This polish has to have a significant take in your decision about visiting Poland! Just looooook at eeeettt!!! Also keep in mind this looks about 1526874321 times better on the nails than on pictures. Just FYI. And to keep matters even more perfect - application is without faults. No troubles at all, perfect brush, I had NO FREAKING clean up and i did it while watching something on the computer. Amazing. Three coats. Gorgeous little thing.

Jumpy 155. Such a cute, juicy colour. And look at the golden specks that look like glass-flecked finish! Aaaagh! Love it! Golden specks swimming in rich, warm bright red/berry colour. A happy colour! Application was again a bliss, no troubles whatsoever. Great brush. Two coats only too! It reminds me a bit of China Glaze Ahoy, but this is redder. An amazing one too, really.

So yeah. Vipera Jumpy. What do I have to do to get them in Ljubljana? Why do we have Joy when we could have Jumpy with their SO adorable chubby bottles? Tell me, what have we done wrong? I want them! N.O.W.

Do you have any experiences with Jumpys, do you like them?

Paket Petek

Oh yes, another Package Friday! You know I'm loving those! This time more make up, less about nails. I've decided I'll clear my secret WL a bit and since I went crazy with eye make up since I got the brushes, I of course wanted to clear my WL of EL. This is what I got in my mailbox on Tuesday:

Licila.si had a cool offer, when you bought for a certain amount of money, you got a present and you could choose which one too! Awesome! I picked the Konad plate and I can't wait to use it. :)) 

4 Beauty UK eyeliners, two pearl, two metallic sparks. I blame the gorgeous Nihrida for those. I think her review on Beauty UK Pearl eyeliners was a bit revolutionary for me. When I watched that smudge test the room got full of strange light and you could hear a distant heavenly 'AaaAAaaAAaahh'. I wanted them. Right in that moment, in my hands. Imagine my happiness when I discovered licila.si holds the Beauty UK brand. Yes!! I've ordered three right away and they are in all meanings of the word pure Perfection. No faults. So I knew it's only a matter of time before I order more. This time Oceania and Purple Haze, Oceania being my wild card. That's also why I was drawn to it the most and tried it out right away. I just might created my favourite look of all times with it. It's SO gorgeous!! 

Anyway. When I also saw another fantastic review made by Nihrida (not to mention the eye looks!) on Metallic Sparks my list got a bit long. And even now they had the Bronze one out of stock. *sad sigh* Oh well, I have an excuse for another order, hehe. Right now I got Green and Purple. Yum! Wearing mostly black really pays off. You can have every colour on your eyes and nails and still it's not too much. :D 

Colour wheel I picked for my green shimmer comparison. I don't have the time to do another big comparison on my nails, so I decided I'll try the famous nail wheel, to spot the dupes. 

Are you a fan of EL? Do you prefer gel, liquid or pencil? :) And what was in your latest package? 

Thank you for reading!

Kiko 255 and 296

Hey people! How are you doing on this beautiful sunny day? Hope you're having a good one! As already mentioned, I have tons of stuff to show you, so I'm combining colours of the same brands in one post. It's more interesting that way too, I think. 

Today I have another two Kikos. I've shown you couple of colours before and I must say, their quality still impresses me. The formula and the brush and the colours. All of them awesome. So if you get the chance to grab a few bottles, do not hesitate! 

First the number 255. I dare say this is the star of Kiko line. Everybody seems to love this colour. And so did I on the swatches. On my hands, alas, not so much.

Don't ask me why I didn't like it, I don't know. It's not like I hated it ... just didn't like it as much as I thought I would. Great formula though! I needed three coats. Oh yes, I did a video of all the sparkling for ya too:

And now the second one, called, very originally, 296. A wonderful bright spring green. That was a bit of a diva to photograph. 

Take the first almost-neon photo and then calm it down a bit, but not as much as it is on the other two photos. Then you get the vibrancy that is 296! It's a really bright green, but not neon. My kind of green! Formula, of course, superb. Two coats. I freakishly loved this one. Must wear it again asap.

So yeah ... Kiko is really great. I wish they'd bring them to Slovenia too. What's your experience with Kiko?
