PRESS SAMPLE

As you know, for a while now, I've been testing the Mollon Pro Monophase UV polishes.
So far, I loved them all!Some of  you know how much I babble about how much I love red polish and I always admit that I do not use it as often as I'd like!  I've been saving this one for last ehehheeh and I loved wearing it! Lets see more pictures.

Como sabem, há já algumas semanas que estou a testar a nova linha Monophase da Mollon Pro. Esta linha é composta por 12 vernizes de gel que curam em UV e LED e cuja particularidade é não necessitarem de base ou top, sendo todas estas funções feitas apenas por um líquido, com cor. 
Hoje mostro-vos o #4, o Adrianna, um vermelho clássico e lindissimo. Como sabem eu sou louca por verniz vermelho mas acabo por não o usar tantas vezes como gostaria. Vamos ver mais fotos?

Adrianna
 
I applied this one in 2 coats. The formula is very easy to apply, the usual *no base no top* deal. I'll place the complete details bellow.
Apliquei o Adrianna em 2 camadas finas. A fórmula é bastante fácil de aplicar, com fluidez média. Mais uma vez, verniz gel monofásico, sem base nem top coat. *detalhes abaixo*








Nailart

I felt in love with O.P.I. I snow you love me the moment I saw the picture in the press release. When I received it I almost went hysterical. I've used it twice ever since. Stamping with MASH Black Stamping polish and Cheeky Plate CH33.
Apaixonei-me por este O.P.I. assim que vi o press release. I I Snow You Love Me é um top coat glitter único com glitters prateados holográficos, hexagonais grandes, estes glitters são planos mas na unha fazem um efeito tridimensional. São lindíssimos.
O carimbo foi feito com a placa CH33 da Cheeky e o verniz preto da MASH para carimbar.

Mollon Pro MonoPhase UV Nail Polish  Adrianna #4


 The new line by Mollon Pro keeps amazing me! I thought they would last a bit least because they lack the base and top coats but they last as the regular line.
 Base coat, color and top coat  are on one single solution therefore there is only the need of 2 coats total!   

    • Adrianna is another one of the 12 total shades from this line and is a classic bright red  shade.
  • It took just 2 coats for full opacity. 
  • 1.5min on LED for 1st coat
  •  and 3mins for 2nd coat, on LED.

Os novos vernizes gel Mollon Pro Monophase  são diferentes dos outros vernizes gel porque dispensam o uso de base e top coat. Estes vernizes têm a base e o brilho incorporados na fórmula de cor e por isso necessitam apenas das camadas de cor.
    • O Adrianna é mais um dos  12 tons que a marca lançou na linha MonoPhase e tem um tom vermelho clássico.
  • 2 camadas para opacidade total 
  • 1.5mins tempo de secagem LED na primeira camada 
  •  3 mins LED na 2ª camada. 
  • No final não é necessario retirar goma.

PRESS RELEASE

essence trend edition “gel nails at home”




Do it yourself at home: with the essence gel nails at home, you can easily conjure-up
stylish and trendy gel nails in the comfort of your own home.
  • A perfect high shine gel manicure with a quick and easy application
  • Endless choice of colour
  •  a colour look with any essence nail polish 
  • or natural french 
  • Up to 10 days
Easy off – simply peel off the gel
All those well-known nail polish problems are finally over: no more chipping or scratches.
Instead, you can now look forward to long-lasting, shiny gel nails that can be removed by
simply peeling them off! The technology is based on an innovative “peel-off gel base”
formula specially developed for essence, which hardens within 10 seconds underneath
 
the essence mini LED lamp.
 
Fabulous: this unique concept works with any essence colour & go nail polish, so there’s
absolutely no limit to your choice of colour for the gel nails! And as always with essence,
the gel nails at home products are available at an unbeatable, low price.
Professional tools, care products and unique gel effects will be joining the popular range
in February 2014. The absolute highlight is a cool mini LED lamp with a practical USB
connection. From now on, all beauties can apply their gel manicures wherever they go at
any time!

essence gel nails at home cuticle pusher
Push it! This premium cuticle pusher with a soft sandstone tip is ideal for
preparing your nails for a long-lasting gel manicure. The professional
tool is gentle on your nails and cuticles and produces perfect results.
 


essence gel nails at home gel corrector

Corrections are a must! For a perfect gel manicure, it’s really important
that the gel is applied correctly and that any residues are removed from
your cuticles before curing the nails underneath the mini LED lamp. You
can do this gently and easily with the gel corrector, which has a
washable silicone tip.

essence gel nails at home mini LED lamp
 
Mini to go! Absolutely unique and super practical: here comes the mini LED lamp with a USB connection. From now on, all gel nails fans can apply their gel manicure wherever and whenever they like. Thanks to the integrated USB cable, a plug is no longer needed. Simply connect to a PC or the power adapter of your smartphone and you’re ready to go. On top, the lamp cures the gel in just ten seconds per nail as the lamp only has to concentrate on one nail at a time. Ideal when you’re on-the-go or on vacation, extremely time-saving and with the USB plug, it’s ready for action at all times! 

 



essence gel nails at home effect gel top coat
 
Effects, effects, effects… now also available in the gel nails at home range! You can now lovingly decorate your nails and turn them into true eye-catchers. The gel effect manicure is totally easy: first, apply the peel off gel base and cure underneath the mini LED lamp as usual. Then paint your nails in your favorite essence nail polish and leave to dry. Next, apply one of the five unique effect gel top coats and cure underneath the LED lamp again. If you like, you can leave out the nail polish step and let the effects be the star of the show on their own without any colour. A vailable in a total of five different shades and effects. 





 
essence gel nails at home 3in1 nail oil
After gel treatment! Pampering care shouldn’t fall short with your gel manicure. The 3in1 nail oil with a practical ball applicator is a must! The 3-phase oil combines three benefits: it has a pampering formula that moisturizes your nails, strengthens them and promotes growth. It also softens your cuticles and can be applied after your gel manicure for an additional boost of care. 


And here’s how it works:
 
Preparation:
Use the nail file to get your nails into the desired shape and then carefully push back your cuticles with a rosewood stick. Next, put some cleanser on a lint-free cotton pad to remove any dust, oil or grease from your nails. Now it’s time to apply primer over your entire nail so that it is completely covered from the half-moon to the tip. 
  • Nail file 
  •  cleanser
  •  primer 



 
Application:
Apply a thick, even layer of the peel off gel base over the entire nail and cure for 10 seconds under the mini LED lamp (press the essence logo on the lamp). Peel off gel base around €* and mini LED lamp with 10-second power-off mechanism.
Choose your look:
 
For a natural french look:
Apply a thick, even layer of the french gel top coat over the entire nail and cure for another 10 seconds under the mini LED lamp (press the essence logo on the lamp). Use a cotton pad soaked in cleanser to remove any residue from your nails – and your gorgeous nude gel nails are done! French gel top coat. 

 

For a colour look:
First, remove any residues of the cured peel off gel base from your nails with the cleanser. Next, paint your nails with your favorite essence colour & go nail polish and leave to dry completely (not under the lamp) before continuing with the next step. Apply an even layer of the clear gel top coat on top of the colour & go nail polish and hold under the mini LED lamp (press the essence logo on the lamp) for another 10 seconds. Remove any new residues with a cotton pad soaked in cleanser again – and your colour look is done! Clear gel top coat..
Important: The tip of your nail should be completely covered with the gel. Please note that there may be some gel residues on your skin or cuticles after application. Make sure that you remove these with a rosewood stick or the gel corrector before curing your nails under the mini LED lamp.


 
Easy off:
To remove, simply lift a corner of the gel nails and peel off!

 
Extra tip: You can apply any essence colour&go nail polish on top of your natural French or colour look gel nails and then remove it again with acetone-free nail polish remover to suit your mood. Your shiny gel nails will stay put underneath!
And to make sure that your hands get all the care they deserve, you may like to pamper them with the fast-absorbing super rich hand & nail cream afterwards.
The gel nails at home products are perfectly aligned with the essence mini LED lamp.
 
The essence mini LED lamp with an automatic 10-second power-off mechanism.
 
The essence “gel nails at home” innovations will be available in stores in February 2014 and will then be joining the essence standard range.

O.P.I. Visions of Love

Visions of Love belongs to the Mariah Carey Holiday 2013 Collection. The polish has a formula with a medium pigmentation and covers the nail in 2 or 3 thin coats. If you don't let it dry in between coats it might happen the same as it happened in my middle finger (can you see  a mild washed out space? ) . Visions of Love has a gorgeous dark red/burgundy shade and dries in around 6 mins.
No top coat in single shots, top coat on the nailart pictures. 

O verniz Visions of Love pertence à colecção Holiday 2013 - Mariah Carey by O.P.I. O verniz tem uma cor vermelha escura e uma fórmula com uma pigmentação média. 2 a 3 finas camadas para opacidade total, no entanto, cada camada deverá ser aplicada apenas quando a anterior estiver seca, senão pode ocorrr algum arrastamento como podem ver nas fotos, no meu dedo médio. Fora isso, tudo impecável. O verniz tem um tempo de secagem médio de cerca de 6 mins.

The Nailart was done with the MASH65 stamping plate and Make Up Factory, golden polish, 133 Golden Shimmer. 
A nailart foi feita usando a placa MASH65 e o verniz dourado Make Up Factory 133-Golden Shimmer.

Yes Love - Color Speckled Collection - II [Complete swatches]

Hello ladies, remember the Yes Love Speckled post I made a while ago here? This is the Color Speckled collection, the 2nd speckled collection by Yes Love. This one was released a couple months ago but I've been delaying the swatches. Shame on me. Here they are.
Cucu!! Lembram-se de um post que fiz há algum tempo com a 1ª colecção speckled da Yes Love (aqui).. Esta é a 2ª colecção speckled da marca mas desta vez com glitters de várias cores e tamanhos. Esta colecção foi lançada há já alguns meses mas tenho andado a molengar e só agora é que fiz os swatches. 



About the collection

All shades have mix colored and sized glitters in tons of red, blue, purple, black, orange and pink. The previous collection had only black glitters in the formula as you can see here
The base formulas are all very well pigmented and all take 2 generous or 3 thin coats. The finish is slightly bumpy but that issue is settled with a generous coat of top coat. The overall drying time is fast, less than 10 mins. 

Todas as cores desta colecção têm glitters de várias cores e tamanhos incorporados na fórmula. Os tons de glitters variam entre o azul, roxo, preto, vermelho, laranja e rosa. A primeira colecção era composta apenas por glitters pretos como podem ver aqui. Todos os vernizes têm uma fórmula bem pigmentada e cobrem a unha em 2 camadas generosas ou 3 finans ( fica um acabamento mais homogeneo). O acabamento é um pouco rugoso em alguns pontos por causa dos glitters mas isto é facilmente resolvido com uma generoa camada de top coat. O tempo geral de secagem não excede os 10 mins.

RESS SAMPLE

Hello lovelies. Today I have the GL Nails Gel Polish system to show you. Lets see how it works, shall we?
Hello meninas. Hoje trago-vos o sistema de verniz gel da GL Nails e como funciona.

*brand info by the end of the post*



GL Nails - Soak Off Gel Polish 
Madrid

Primer

Lets see how to apply this one!

  1. First remove all traces of nail polish from your nails. File and buff them to remove shine. Apply primer for a more accurate bound to the gel polish. Let the primer dry for 1 min.


  • Primeiro remove-se o verniz que possa estar nas unhas. Lima-se para acertar a forma e o comprimento e depois usa-se um buffer para suavemente remover o brilho da unha. Aplica-se uma fina camada de primer para remover a gordura e aumentar o poder de ligação do verniz gel à unha. Deixa-se secar o primer, ao ar, por cerca de 1 min.



Base

2. Apply one thin coat of base coat ONE and cure it for 60s on LED or 2 mins on UV.
  • Aplicar uma fina camada da base ONE e curar no forno LED por 60s ou no forno UV por 2 mins.


Color

3. Apply one thin coat of color and cure it for 60s on LED or 2 mins on UV.

  • Aplicar uma fina camada de cor e curar no forno LED por 60s ou no forno UV por 2 mins.




4.  Apply a 2nd thin coat of color and cure it for 60s on LED or 2 mins on UV.

  • Aplicar uma 2ª fina camada de cor e e curar no forno LED por 60s ou no forno UV por 2 mins.


Top

5. Apply one thin coat of top coat ONE and cure it for 60s on LED or 2 mins on UV.


  • Aplicar uma fina camada do top ONE e curar no forno LED por 60s ou no forno UV por 2 mins.


 Oil

6. Apply oil and clean the sticky coat.

  • Aplicar uma camada de óleo e limpar a goma final.



It took 2 coats for full opacity and the color is bright and shinny. This polish stayed intact for around 7 days. When I removed it was still intact. The brand states it will last around 1 monts. 



Removing

7. To remove the gel polish, buff slightly the top coat and using the foil method and the GL Nails Gel Polish Remover, wait for 10-15 mins. Scrap the polish of the nails.


  • Para remover o verniz gel da GL Nails basta usar o método do papel de alumínio e o removedor GL Nails. AGuardar por 10-15 minutos e retirar o resto do verniz gel com uma espatula removedora de cutículas ou pau de laranjeira.


Pros:
- Very resistant

- High Shine
- Lasts intact and the shine does not fade

Cons:
-Around 20-30 mins total removal time.
- I don't like the scent of the remover and I think it works best with pure acetone.

O She Shines! é um top coat para promover o brilho do verniz e tem um cheirinho delicioso. Vamos ver tudo?

Terra Cotta Planter

This polish has an orange brick / earth shade and a very pigmented formula. 2 thin coats for full opacity and around 5 mins drying time. The polish dries to a suede finish.

Este verniz tem um tom laranja meio tijolo meio terra. A fórmula é bastante bem pimentada e são apenas ncessárias 2 finas camadas para opacidade total e acabamento homogeneo. O tempo de secagem é de cerca de 5 mins. O acabamento final é suede/matte.


She Shines ! 


Thumb, indicator and ring finger with She Shines! for you to see the differences in brightness and suede finish. She shines dries relatively fast an has an amazing fruity scent.

O She Shines é um top com a finalidade de aumentar o brilho do verniz. Neste caso o she shines confere o brilho ao acabamento suede do Terra Cotta Planter. O She Shines! tem um aroma frutado delicioso. Podem ver a diferença com e sem top coat nas fotos abaixo. Polegar, indicador e anelar com top coat.




Armed Forces Vet


1 Coat - Indicator vs 2 coats in middle finger. Armed Forces Vet  is a highly pigmented glitter top coat filled with blue and red glitters. Layers quite easily and the outcome is very homogeneous. Drying time is around 6 mins without top coat. 
1 camada no dedo indicador e duas na unha do dedo médio. O Armed Forces Vet é um top coat glitter altamente concentrado em glitter vermelho, azul e prateado. Os glitters dispersam-se na unha com facilidade e o acabamento fica homogeneo. O tempo de secagem é de cerca de 6 mins sem top coat.

PRESS SAMPLE

GL Nails is a Portuguese brand that retails Gel Polish, Gels and Nail Polishes. Recently the brand released a collection of 6 shades of monophase gel polish. I was sent this one, Charismatic, to review and show you. 

A GL Nails lançou há pouco tempo uma linha de gel monofásico e hoje tenho uma das 6 novas cores para os mostrar, a Carismática. 

*brand info by the end of the post*


A Monophasic Gel polish is a Gel Polish (Soak Off Gel Polish) that is applied directly on the nail ( some brands have primer, some don't). This is a polish that does not need a base coat or top coat.

GL Nails Monophase Charismatic needs only 2 coats and a 2min UV or 1min LED Cure to each coat.
The polish lasts over a week at least ( 1 had it for 7 days and took it off without a scratch). The removal is done with the foil method and took around 20mins total to remove it.
I really liked using it, I believe it is a good brand and the product does what it promises.

Um veniz gel monofásico é um verniz gel que é aplicado directamente na unha ( algumas marcas usam primer, a GL Nails usa). Este tipo de verniz gel não necessita de base nem top coat e vai a curar 2 mins em UV OU 1 em LED em cada camada. 
O verniz tem um acabamento brilhante muito bonito e no final não fica com residuos(goma), ou seja, quando terminar o tempo de cura, está pronto. A fórmula é bastante bem pigmentada e com uma viscosidade média. 
Usei-o durante 7 dias e removi-o intacto, creio que durava bem mais. A remoção não foi muito difícil, usei o método do papel de aluminio. O tempo total de remoção, nas duas mãos, foi de cerca de 20mins.
Gostei bastante do produto, acho que cumpre o prometido e tem um brilho bonito.

This is an amazing hand exfoliant. The scent is amazing and the hands get so so so soft! Loved it! Once a week and its perfect. Just apply a pump full and rub your nails until the product is invisible. Finish off by washing away the exfoliating particles. 


Este produto é bastante bom e tem um cheirinho delicioso. O aroma a limão é muito agradável e as mãos ficam muito macias. Basta aplicar uma pequena quantidade e massajar as mãos até que o produto seja absorvido. Para finalizar basta lavar as mãos para remover as pequenas particulas granulares. As mãos ficam muito macias.

This cuticle oil has a very sweet blueberry scent. I have tons of scented and unscented oils but this scent is a first! I really liked it.
The packaging is very cute and the product easy to apply. It is also easily absorbed by the skin. 

Este óleo de cutículas tem um aroma doce e frutado. O óleo tem um cheirinho muito bom a amoras e a embalagem é muito gira. Tenho toneladas de óleos de cuticulas, com e sem cheiros mas este aroma é novo para mim. Gostei.
O óleo é muito facil de aplicar e é rapidamente absorvido.
