[ABC Nails] K, L, M id for Kinetics, L'oreal and Max Factor

Brace yourselves, a shit ton of photos is incoming!

Now that the warning is done, lets move on to another [ABC Nails] challenge that I'm doing with Maggie and Rosana, as you all know by now.

For this first manicure, I chose 2 of my favourite Kinetics, Sugar Blue, that I used on my middle finger, index and thumb, and Smoky Pearl on my ring finger. Both of them have great formulas and cover perfectly with 2 easy coats. On my pinky I used 2 coats of O.P.I My Private Jet and to spice it up a little, I did a stamping decal to apply on my ring finger. For that I used a GA36 plate, Essence Black is Back and filled in the bows with Sugar Blue and My Private Jet.

As for L, I went with L'oreal Hidden Gems, that I applied 2 coats of, on my thumb, index and pinky.On my middle and ring fingers I have 2 coats of Colorama Mar Sem Fim, stamped with Essence Black is Back, using a Fauxnad m78 plate. (Excuse the tiny nubs, but I've done these about a month ago and was saving them for this post.)

And lastly, I finally picked up my Max Factor Fantasy Fire. I've had this polish on my drawer for about 2 years now and never used it...SHAME ON ME! It is a must have (and must use!!) and I'm so glad that I'm doing this challenge or I'd never go for it. Here, I layered one coat of Fantasy Fire over Leticia Well Professional 143 (gorgeous and cheap purple!).
Oh, this was a pain in the ass to photograph, so I just chose the photos where it's beauty shows the most, the rest of the photos were kind of meh...

Now, that I'm fully up to date and can post at the same time as the other girls, I realized that the next post should be up tomorrow and I have no nails ready for that, so oops! D: So I guess you can expect that one by wednesday at most...goddam, I'm always running late, gotta get my shit together. -.-''

Well, hope you enjoyed this post, don't forget to tell me which manicure is your favourite and to check the other girls posts.

Expocosmética 2013

WARNING: This is going to be a long, long post, with lots of photos!!
Aviso: Este post vai ser muito, muito longo e recheadinho de fotos!!

This weekend, we had here in Porto, a cosmetics fair with all you can imagine about hair, make up, skin care and, obviously, nails! I'm not going to lie...of course I went for the nail polish! :P

I took lots of photos to share, but unfortunely, I still failed to photograph lots of brands that were there, as I was too excited about their polishes. But without further ado, here they are:

Este fim de semana, tivemos aqui no Porto, uma feira de cosméticos, com tudo o que se possa imaginar sobre cabelos, maquilhagem, produtos de pele e, obviamente, unhas! Eu não vos vou mentir, o meu interesse na feira era, puramente, pelos os vernizes! :P

Tirei montes de fotos para partilhar, mas infelizmente, acabei por falhar e esquecer de tirar foto a muitas marcas que lá se encontravam. Mas sem mais demoras, aqui estão elas:

Andreia, a portuguese brand, very well known here.

Andreia, uma marca portuguesa, já conhecida de todas nós.

PN - Pro Nails - A new brand to me, never heard of it.

I had a wonderful day with these girls, with was soooo much fun! I also got to know lots of other bloggers, but I have to say, the ones I was most excited about meeting were Cristina, Bárbara and Luisa! We've been talking for so long now, that it really felt good to see them in person and talk with them, even if it was just for a brief while (we were about to leave, and really dead and tired, when they finally got there :P).

Passei um dia excelente, na companhia destas meninas, foi incrivelmente divertido! Também conheci várias outras bloggers, mas devo dizer que estava mais excitada por finalmente conhecer a Cristina, a Bárbara e a Luisa! Já falamos há tanto tempo, que foi, realmente bom vê-las em pessoa e conversar com elas, nem que tenha sido, por apenas um breve momento (nós já estavamos de saída, e mais que mortas e cansadas, quando elas finalmente chegaram.
