Jade Is Not My Name vs. I Sea You!

As you might know already Catrice came out with new nail polishes and of course I had to have those. Old polishes had to make room for the new ones and got discontinued, including I Sea You. But lucky enough I had that one already.

At work I was changing the whole Catrice display (I love to be around it ;p) my eye caught this new color that didn't look that much like I Sea You, but came close enough to be a fresher version of the color.

On the left: I Sea You!
On the right: Jade Is Not My Name
 Next to each other they look pretty different. I Sea You is more green and Jade Is Not My Name is more blue. Since I kinda swatched I Sea You! once already (even though that was just one 1 one nail, but who cares? xD) I'll just swatch Jade Is Not My Name.


Ain't it pretty?! :D Now check out this last picture. Do you see a big difference? I don't. You won't even see the difference in real life at all! So bottom line: I didn't need to buy Jade Is Not My Name. However, I love the name so much it's just worth it to be in it! :P

Pointer: Jade Is Not My Name
Middle: I Sea You!
Ring: Jade Is Not My Name
Pinky: I Sea You!

Thanks for reading!

China Glaze - For Audrey + Comparison

Hello! I was planning to show this pretty color on day 5 of the challenge, but since I'm planning on buying a lot of new polishes tomorrow I figured I could just show you now! :)


I think almost everybody has this nail polish. When I ordered this one instead of the next day this came about 2/2,5 weeks later. But I knew it would come later anyway :P I wanted to have this one, because I wanted something close to Tiffany's blue. I still don't really know if this is close to it, but I do know it's a gorgeous color!
Since I own a few blue polishes that I though came close to For Audrey I decided to compare them. The result:


Nothing close to each other at all! Mint Cream is from ELF and actually the first blue/green I actually wore. I got lots of compliments on it and that made me decide I can wear blue nails :)
Am I Blue Or Green is from Catrice. It looks almost white on the picture, but compared to these two it's a very pale blue. Am I Blue Or Green is actually hard to get on your nails. I've heard more complaints about that, so it's not just me.

Since I said at the beginning of this post; I'm planning on actually get out of the house to buy new nail polishes and I know there are some gorgeous ones from Catrice and Essence, so look out for that!

For now,

xoxo Ingie

My First Franken! Mwhuahahah

[cheesy greating]

Yesterday I came across Laura's blog. She has a really fun contest going on; Create a franken inspired by a movie or TV show. I immediately had something in mind and tried to do something. I liked creating something, but I didn't really like the way it turned out. It's a nice color, but nothing special. I'd like to share the name of it with you, but then you would know from what movie I'm trying to create something :P

Gisteren kwam ik langs Laura's blog. Ze heeft een leuke contest; Maak een franken geïnspireerd door een film of TV show. Ik had meteen een idee in m'n hoofd en probeerde iets te maken. Ik vond het leuk om iets te creëren, maar ik vond het resultaat niet zo geweldig. Het is een mooie kleur, maar niks bijzonders. Ik zou graag de naam delen, maar dan weet je gelijk van welke film ik iets probeer te creëren :P



SPARKLES! :P
 I used Catrice - I Sea You, Catrice - Sold Out Forever, Catrice - Blue Cara Ciao, Catrice - I Wear My Sunglasses At Night, Etos sparkle polish and Hema sparkle polish.

 Ik gebruikte Catrice - I Sea YouCatrice - Sold Out Forever, Catrice - Blue Cara Ciao, Catrice - I Wear My Sunglasses At Night, Etos glitter nagellak en Hema glitter nagellak.
