Yellow + Military Green
Pelo que vi, a cor de esmalte sensacao do momento eh o amarelinho, como visto nas unhas de Lady Gaga no Grammy Awards (cor Yellow Brick Road, da Deborah Lippmann), na passarela de Chanel (cor Mimosa) ou de Yves Saint Laurent (cor Electric Yellow). Eu ja tinha feito as unhas com um amarelo ovo, lembram? Mas resolvi testar um amarelinho pastel, bem clarinho, e o escolhido foi o Lemon, da NYC Color.
It seems that the new 'in colour' is yellow, as seen on Lady Gaga during the Grammy Awards (Yellow Brick Road, by Deborah Lippmann), on the Chanel runway (Mimosa) and now with the release of Yves Saint Laurent Electric Yellow. I already used yellow in one of my manis, remember? But this time I decided to try out a lighter shade of yellow, this NYC Color Lemon polish.
Olha, devo dizer que eu detestei esse esmalte. Nao necessariamente a cor, mas sim a consistencia dele. Ele eh super ruim de passar, fica super grosso e nao cobre muito bem. Eu passei 2 demaos e de tao grosso, ficou impossivel passar uma terceira camada. Sem contar que pra limpar as beiradinhas foi um sacrificio! Quanto mais eu limpava, mais sujo ficava! Um show de horror!
I have to tell you that I hated this polish. Not the colour but its consistency. It doesn't spread easily, it streaks and the result is super thick, so thick that I couldn't even paint a third coat. To clean the sides was another hassle, the more I cleaned it the dirtier it got. Terrible!
Mas, como nada eh desperdicado aqui, eu resolvi fazer uma misturinha. Tentei fazer um verde militar metalizado. Para tal, misturei as seguintes cores, respectivamente: American Apparel Hassid, NYC Color Slate, Lemon e Aqua.
But nothing here is wasted, so I decided to make a mixture of colours. I tried to make a metallic military green mixing the following colours, respectively: American Apparel Hassid, NYC Color Slate, Lemon and Aqua.
E cheguei nisso aqui:
And I achieved this:
Na foto ta parecendo um grafite metalizado, mas juro pra voces que, ao vivo, o tom tava muito mais verde.
It seems like a metallic graphite in the picture, but I swear it was much greener in natural light.
Ontem teve show da Lady Gaga, no GM Place, aqui em Van, e foi tudo muito bom!!! Alias, ela fez 2 dias de shows aqui por causa da grande demanda. Sorte nossa! Ela, apesar de meio robotica, eh muito engracada, canta bem e interage bastante com o publico. A maioria dos discursos era sobre a igualdade racial/sexual, que levava a plateia aos gritos! Nem vou comentar do figurino, que todos nos ja sabemos ser um tanto excentrico, bem aquilo mesmo que a gente sempre ve nas fotos, internet e revistas. Acho que ela cantou praticamente todas as musicas do CD, nao me lembro de nenhuma que tenha ficado de fora. A unica coisa que nao me agradou muito foi a troca de figurino, que eh claro, ocorria frequentemente, mas nao era uma coisa assim continua. O show quase que literalmente parava, dai entravam uns videos dela nos teloes, com looks incriveis, ou uma musica meio que eletronica continuava a tocar enquanto ela se trocava, ou dela fazendos uns discursos e tals. Meio que fazia a gente sentar e esperar pelo resto do show. Mas, apesar disso, o show valeu muito a pena! Me fez dancar e gritar bastante! Simplesmente a-d-o-r-e-i!!!
Yesterday we went to Lady Gaga show, at GM Place, here in Van, and everything was awesome!!! By the way, she had 2 shows here because of the high demand! Lucky us! She, despite being a bit like a robot, is very funny, sings well and interacts a lot with the audience. Most of her speeches were about sexual/racial equality, which made the crowd cheer a lot! I won't even mention the clothes that we already know are a tad eccentric, exactly what we see on the pics, internet and magazines. I believe she sang pretty much all the songs from the CD, I don't remember any that wasn't in her set list. The only thing that kinda bothered me was the costume changing, that of course, happened a lot, but it wasn't something, let's say, continuous. Everytime she had to change costumes, the show literally almost stopped, as if it was an intermission. Then, some videos would play on the big screens, showing her amazing looks, or her speeching, or some sort of electronic music would play along. Kinda made us sit down and wait for the rest of the show. But, besides it all, it was really worth it! It made me dance and scream a lot! I simply l-o-v-e-d it!!!
Olha so as minhas unhas do post Blue Gaga no show da propria!!!! Ckeck out my nails from the post Gaga Blue at the show!!!!
Gaga BlueHa tempos eu queria testar a cor azul What's with the Catittude, da colecao Shrek da OPI, pois eu sempre via nas unhas das meninas, e achava lindo! Ate o dia que eu finalmente comprei o bendito! Devo dizer que, de cara, eu fiquei um pouco desapontada com a consistencia, que eh muito fina pro meu gosto. Precisei passar 3 demaos para cobrir tudo, e ainda assim ha pedacinhos da unha aparecendo. Maaas, depois de um tempo com esse esmalte, eu comecei a gostar - e muito - dessa cor! A cor eh um azul bebe, que me lembra muito aqueles antigos eletrodomesticos, sabe? Tipo geladeira de avo? rsrsBom, mas o que isso tem a ver com o nome do post? Eh que eu precisava de um esmalte-escandalo pra usar no show da Lady Gaga ontem!!! Pois eh, minha gente! Gaga em Van!!! Muito bom!!! Logo mais, post sobre o show!
I've been wanting to test the blue What's with the Catittude, from the Shrek Collection by OPI, because I would see it on other girls' nails and it seemed to be very cute! Then, I finally bought it and must tell you I was kind of disappointed with the consistency, which is too thin for my liking. I had to apply 3 coats of it and still I can see parts of my nail. Buuut, after a while wearing this nail polish, I started liking it - a lot! The colour is a baby/pastel blue, that reminds me those old kitchen appliances, do you remember? Like granny's fridge? lol
Well, what does it have to do with the name of my post? It's because I needed a faboosh nail polish to wear at the Lady Gaga concert yesterday!!! Yep, Gaga in Van!!! Suuuper duper!!! A post is coming!
