M&Buffalo green suede nail polish

You might have noticed that Manhattan made a collaboration with Buffalo. I noticed a great nail polish that differs from every other nail polish I own, so I bought it.

And I discovered that it doesn’t really have a name on it’s bottle. So I call it suede green.

Becomes opaque with 2 layers. Completely chip-free for 2 days, well for me at leastKurb naerunägu. I also used my Essie fastest drying top coat.

 

 

I really wanted to see how it looked with my Attitude X nail polish in 2217 Tropical Waters, which is a great colour but doesn’t become opaque even with 4 layers. Can be worn on it’s own only with really short nails as the nail white will not show then.

So this is the outcome, a bit more summery than the suede green, not quite sure I’m feelin’ it.

I’m kind of craving dark/murky nail polishes at the moment.

 

 

I have to say, I’ve been really enjoying the weather right now… There have been ferocious thunder storms on and off for 3 days. Maybe ferocious is a bit exaggerated, but still.. thunderstorms, heavy rainfalls. Now I just wish I lived in a penthouse to be able to watch the amazingness.

Nails and excuses

So I’m going to start with excuses. I’m really sorry for not posting any meaningful and fun posts lately. Believe me, I have a LOT of ideas but I lack of time currently, so just to show you that I am alive and still want to show you something beauty-related, I’m going to show you my current manicure.

I got my hair done today and while I was in the salon, I spotted some pretty neat sail polishes.

I saw some Mereneid (an Estonian company) nail polishes there and was quite surprised how affordable they were and I have never used them, but I was very tempted to buy them. But I sadly they didn’t have any really special nail polishes, just the most classic red, pink, white and a darker glittery polish I wasn’t interested in. So I purchased Attitude X nail polish in Lemon Sherbet this was 3,2 Euros in Ki Stuudio.

The Mereneid top and base coats were around 2 Euros and nail varnishes were 2,6 Euros and they were huge, I mean 15 ml bottles.

This pic isn’t the greatest but I think it shows the colour more truly. I was actually expecting it to be a bit more golden as I don’t really like yellow.. And this truly is a yellow, yellow as lemon sherbet or midday sun so I don’t know what I was thinking. It became completely opaque with 3 layers, though with 2 layers it is quite wearable as well.

And here’s what I used:

Attitude X in Lemon Sherbet

Artdeco Nail Wonder- I recommend this product, it can be used as a base and top coat, I used it just as the base this time

Essie good to go! the fastest drying top coat- I just bought this and don’t have a complete verdict yet, but it does provide a great high shine finish.

Hope you are well!

Love,
