Layla Emerald Divine


Continuing to go through some of my new polishes, today I have got Layla Holographic #10 Emerald Divine to show you. It is a medium forest green holographic shade, the same formula as the other Laylas I have. I used two coats followed again by Nail Polish Sealer. I think it is not as prismatic as some other, like Flash Black, but I'm still really surprised, when I catch a glimpse of my nails in bright light.

Layla Flash Black


Flash Black is one of the polishes that I picked up recently. It is so unassuming in the bottle, but on the nails it looks gorgeous. I used two coats of polish, which I think is the same for all my Layla holographic polishes. On top I used Laylas's Nail Polish Sealer, a top coat kind of product, which is the only one I have ever tried that gives insane shine and doesn't dull the prismatic effect at all. Although it claims to prolong nail polish wear 'until you decide to remove your polish', it prolonged the wear for me on this polish by one day.

Hi! And Layla Holographic 07 Ocean Rush

Hi there! I has been a while. I've been in France for just over a week, and it certainly takes some getting used to. I do like the studies here, and the fact that they are intense, but they leave me exhausted by the end of the day, hence no posting.
One thing that I find unbelievable here is that pretty much everything is closed on Sundays and during the week only work till around 7 pm during the week. Whaaaat? Shops, supermarkets, cafes and restaurants closes on Sunday. This is just mindbogglingly to me, since back home evenings and the weekends is THE time to go out, shop etc. The town itself is quite pretty if small, it has a lovely old town with cathedral and crooked houses.



As for nail polishes a few of them came with me to France, it was so difficult to choose which ones to take with me. I did take a few Layla's since they are so pretty. Ocean Rush is a gorgeous bright blue with an insane holographic rainbow. The formula on this one is good but weird. It only needs two coats and dries quickly, but my bottle have some lumpy bits in it compared to the other three Layla polishes I own. In the sun it is even more spectacular, so much so that my camera couldn't deal with all the awesomness.

Layla Misty Blush

Hey everyone! Long time, no see! I've finally finished all my studies that were taking up all my time, and also passed all my exams really rather well. So now I have a lot of free time. In the last few days I've put up the Christmas tree, tidied the house up, and went to see The Hobbit.
At the same time my nails have grown quite long. Today I'm wearing one of the loveliest polishes I've tried. Layla Holographic 15 Misty Blush is wonderful, such an unusual color that also has a magnificent rainbow effect. It also dries really quickly on me and needs just 2 coats.

Layla Holographic #11 Shock Pink

A couple of days ago it became cold enough so that the clouds have parted and there finally was some sun. So it was time to bring out some holographic polishes. I've decided to wear some of my untried polishes, so Layla Shock Pink it was.
It is nice, pink and holographic, plus it is fairly easy to apply. I've used 2 coats over Gosh Fix Base Coat. I really don't like that base coat very much, it smells horribly of glue, but it makes the application of these holographic polishes easier.

Layla Holographic Jade Groove


These Layla polishes are probably the coolest polishes I've ever tried. They are so vivid and sparkly that it is hard to stop myself from looking at my hands all the time.
Today I'm wearing #05 Jade Groove. It is supposed to be a very pale green polish, but once it dries you can't really say, all you see is the rainbow. This one wasn't that difficult to apply, I used 2 coats over Gosh Fix Base Coat. It smells horribly like glue, but it works wonders. But when I tried it over my usual base coat, OPI Nail Envy, it just kind of slid off.

Baltic Beauty 2012

This weekend me and a friend went to the Baltic Beauty 2012 exhibition. We spent some 3 hours there, had a really good time. Laughed a lot, especially at creepy displays and products on offer (a photo of your aura, anyone?).
I didn't really take any photos since the displays were pretty much the same as last year. Apparently this season fake tan, curly hair and mad nail design are in. I did find some very cool products. It turned out that one local company stock Layla polishes. Not only that, but during the exhibition the polishes were 30% off. I couldn't resist. This year was the the first time that Oniks Beta, the local OPI distributor, managed to bring new collections in time for the exhibition - I've seen James Bond and Germany collection.

I walked away with Cuccio cuticle oil, Orly Miss Conduct, Layla 05 Jade Groove, 15 Misty Blush, 07 Ocean Rush, 11 Shock Pink, OPI On Her Majesty's Secret Service and Every Month is Oktoberfest.

 Here's a sneak peak of Layla Holographic 15 Misty Blush. Beyond awesome.
