KKCenter Nail Art Brush Set

Poslednji proizvod koji sam dobila od KKCenterHK na recenziju je upravo ovaj set cetkica za nail art. Set se sastoji od 15 cetkica i futrole koja dolazi uz njih. Cetkice su izradjene od sintetickih vlakana i drveta. Cena seta je 19.80 USD.

The last product I got for review from KKCenterHK is this nail art brush set. This set contains 15 brushes and case that comes with it. Brushes are made out of synthetic fibers and wood. The price of the set is 19.80 USD. 



Ova futrola stiti cetkice od ostecenja, drzi ih na rastojanju kako se oblik cetki ne bi promenio. Zatvara se na dva magneta. 

This case protects the brushes from damage, keeps them apart so they won't lose their shape. It closes with two magnets. 



Cetkice  se mogu koristiti sa gelom, akrilnim bojama i lakovima. Od toga posedujem samo lakove, akrilne boje nisam probala ali posto su gusce i pigmentovanije smatram da je cetkice najbolje funkcionisati sa njima, za najbolje rezultate. Na sajtu pise da se za ciscenje cetkica koristi iskljucivo voda i sampon a ne aceton, sto je za gel i lakove nemoguce. Svoje cetkice sam cistila acetonom, posle svake upotrebe i nije bilo problema, sem da ce se boja sa drske cetkica svakako skinuti ako aceton dospe na nju, medjutim to i nije neki problem. Takodje posto su cetkice bele boje, dlacice ce se svakako blago obojiti posle upotrebe i ciscenja, ali to takodje ne smeta.

Brushes can be used for gel, acrylic paints or nail polish. I own only nail polishes but acrylics are more pigmented and thicker so It guess It would be the best to use it with acrylics. On site It says to clean the brushes only with water and shampoo but If you use nail polish you know you have to use acetone too. It won't damage the brushes, It can only remove the white color from the handles. Also, because fibers are white, using color will stain a brush, but I don't mind at all.



Set se sastoji iz dve lepeza cetke, tri cetke za linije razlicite duzine i gustine, tri cetvrtaste ravno secene cetke, dve manje cetvrtaste ravno secene cetkice za detalje, jedne manje koso secene cetkice za detalje, jedne tackalice koja se takodje moze koristiti za iscrtavanje detalja, jednu kosu cetkicu za detalje, jednu obicnu takodje za detalje i jedne manje cetkice koja moze posluziti za iscrtavanje latica, lisca i uopsteno detalja. 

This set contains two fan brushes, three liner brushes different length, three big square brushes, two smaller square brushes for details, one small side cut brush for details, one small dotting tool, one big detail brush, one for details such as leaves or petals, and one regular detailing brush.  


Takozvane lepeza cetkice mogu se koristiti za stvaranje pozadine za neki dizajn. Za nanosenje ili uklanjanje viska sljokica sa noktiju ili za stapanje dve boje.

These fan brushes can be used to make a background for some design. To apply or remove excess glitter from nails or to blend two colors together. 


Lineri ili cetkice za linije, dolaze u tri razlicite duzine i gustine u setu pa ce u zavisnosti od toga praviti tanje ili deblje linije. 

Liner brushes are made to create lines, of course. They come in three different size so you can create thicker or thinner lines.


Ove tri cetvrtaste ravno rezane cetke, razlicitih velicina mogu se koristiti za one stroke tehniku ukrasavanja noktiju ili nanosenje gela na nokat. Takodje se mogu koristiti i za neke manje linije i detalje. Mogu da posluze i za pravljenje linije za french manikir.

These three flat brushes in different sizes can be used for one stroke technique or to apply gel on nails. Also you can use them for some smaller lines or details and french manicure.


Nesto manje cetkice od prethodnih su odlicne za popunjavanje nekih manjih povrsina na noktu, odlicne za detalje neke srednje velicine, french manikir, razne latice i lisce...

A little smaller brushes than previous ones are great to fill in some smaller space, for details, french manicure, leaves or petals...



Ovo su najmanje setkice u setu, savrsene za najsitnije detalje. Kao i mala metalna tackalica kojom se takodje moze crtati i popunjavati.

These are the smallest in set, perfect for really precise details. Also there is this small dotting tool which you can use to draw beside making dots.

Uglavnom set mi se svidja. Cetkice su solidnog kvaliteta, nije mi otpala ni jedna dlacica. Sve su vrlo mekane. Svidja mi se sto imaju svoju futrolu, mozete ih prenositi i putovati s njima a da ne brinete da ce izgubiti svoj oblik. Dobra stvar je sto su ove cetkice vise manje univerzalne. Mogu se koristiti za crtanje po raznim povrsinama, u slikanju, neke i za sminkanje, sta god zamislite i sa raznim vrstama boja. 

Anyway I like this set. Brushes are good quality, It didn't lost any fibers. All of them are very soft. I like that It comes with it's own case so you can transfer it and travel with it too without worrying will the brushes lose their shape. Good thing is that these brushes are universal. You can use them for what ever crosses your mind. Painting on different surfaces and using different types of colors. Even some can be used for make up.

Velvet Nail Design

I sa ovim "trendom" kasnim, pratim ali ne konzumiram kad i svi. ;D Enivej, ove "dlacice" kako ih ja zovem, kupljene su kod, dragih nam, Kineza za samo 50 dinara. :D <3 Bilo ih je raznih boja, odlucila sam se za ovu plavu, nekako mi je bola oci. Ovu teglicu imam odavno, probala sam par puta i konacno da jedan manikir stavim i na blog. Pored dlacica koristila sam i Don Juan beli lak za french i plavi kao podlogu za dlacice koji nosi oznaku LK 103. Takodje ove tracice koje dolaze uz DJ french lak, koje se ooodlicno lepe za nokat! Essence tackalicu, cetkicu koja se dobija uz rumenilo i lepeza cetkicu da otklonim visak. Nadam se da vam se dopada. :]

I'm kind of late with this "trend" too, I do follow them but I don't like to do what most people do in the same time. I got this flocking powder at the Chinese store for very cheap. I used It a few times, and finally decided to post one manicure on the blog. The stuff I used with flocking powder are Don Juan white nail polish for french manicure and strips that come with it, Don Juan LK 103, Essence dotting tool, little blush brush and fan brush to remove excess powder. I hope you like this manicure. :]

Golden Rose Holiday Nail Polishes

Znam da mnogo kasnim, da je ova Golden Rose kolekcija dostupna odavno, ali jednostavno i dalje zelim da podelim moje odusevljenje ovim lakovima, iako sam sigurna da ih vecina vas poseduje i voli. Retko koji lakovi me oduseve, ali ovi jesu, na prvo mazanje. Jos letos sam kupila dva laka, iako su mi se svidele skoro sve dostupne nijanse, za pocetak sam uzela plavi i rozi i cim budem u mogucnosti nabavicu ih jos!

Kolekcija ovih teksturisanih lakova dobila je naziv Holiday. Ja sam moje kupila u Golden Shopu u Pancevu po ceni od 249 dinara. Za tu cenu dobije se 11,3 ml laka, sto je sasvim solidna kolicina. Oba laka je potrebno namazati u dva sloja. Prvi sloj se potpuno osusi za oko 5 minuta, dok se drugi susi nesto sporije, ali svakako se suse mnooogo brze od obicnih lakova i to je nesto sto mi se jako dopalo! Druga stvar koja mi se svidja je to sto takodje i traju duze od obicnih lakova, iako se posle ovih lakova ne nanosi nikakav nadlak da ne bi unistio efekat koji daju. Meni izdrze i do pet dana. Bazu mozete naneti bez problema i bojazni da se tekstura nece napraviti.

I know I'm pretty late, this Golden Rose textured nail polish collection is available for a long time, but I still want to share them with you because I like them so much, although probably all of you have tried them and love them already. I liked them since first application. I got them this summer, and even I got only two shades, I liked them all, and as soon as possible, I will get more! 

This nail polish collection is named Holiday. You get 11,3 ml of nail polish for 249RSD. Both shades I got had to be applied in two coats. First coat is completely dry in about 5 minutes, while the second one needs a little more time, but anyway these polishes dry waaaay faster than any regular nail polishes, which is awesome! Another thing I like very much is lasting on nails, they can last me for 5 days, maybe even more. Only thing is you can't use top coat because It will ruin the texture, but you can use base without any problems. 


Ovo su nijanse koje su bile dostupne kada sam ja kupila moje, od tad su izbacili jos zanimljivih nijansi. Moje su 61 i 63. 

These are the shades that were available when I got mine. Since then they made some more fun shades. Mine are 61 and 63.

Nove nijanse. Izvor. New shades. Source.

Uglavnom, na oficijalnom Golden Rose sajtu mozete pogledati sve nijanse izbliza.

Anyway, you can see all the shades up close on Golden Rose official site. 

Nijansa pod brojem 63 je bebi roza, vrlo nezna i zenstvena. Sadrzi sitni plavi shimmer koji na suncu jace dolazi do izrazaja, prelep je! Na slikama imam dva sloja laka.

Shade under number 63 is a baby pink, very soft and girly. It has blue shimmer which looks amazing in the sun! In pictures I have two coats.





Tamno plava nijansa pod brojem 61 je takodje lepa. Prava plava, sa plavim shimmerom takodje. Shimmer je u ovom laku manje vidljiv jer se ovi lakovi osuse poprilicno mat, a shimmer je iste boje kao i lak pa pretpostavljam da je zbog toga. Takodje na slikama imam dva sloja.

Dark blue shade under number 61 is beautiful too. This one also contains blue shimmer but It's less visible because nail polish is also blue and dries pretty matte. I have two coats in these pictures too.
