Catrice: 9 in 1 Nail Elixir

IMG_8249

Odkar pomnim sem vedno imela trde nohte, kar mi je bilo načeloma všeč, saj sem jih tako s pilico vedno brez težav oblikovala v željeno obliko. Malo več težav je bilo pri rezanju s škarjicami ali ščipalcem, ampak ker zdaj že sigurno kakšnih 5 let nohte samo še pilim, nimam niti s tem težav.

Since I can remember I always had hard nails that I in principle like, because I could always file them in any desired shape. I had a bit more trouble with cutting them with scissors or clippers, but for about 5 years now I only file them, so I don’t have that problem anymore.

Največ težav mi je po drugi strani povzročalo lomljenje in pokanje nohtov (tudi na sredini nohta), če sem slučajno kaj narobe potegnila, kam preveč udarila z nohtom ali je pač bil takšen dan. Moji nohti so se lomili tudi čisto kratki, veliko huje pa je bilo če so bili daljši. Dva meseca nazaj sem se pa potožila prijateljici, ki dela v salonu lepote, in ona mi je rekla, da imam izsušene nohte in da se zato lomijo. Nikoli prej nisem pomislila na kaj takega, ker tudi če sem poskušala situacijo popraviti z negovalnimi olji, ponavadi ni pomagalo. Priporočala je podlak za nohte, ki vlaži.

On the other hand I had the most problems with brittle and cracked nails (even in the middle of the nail) if I accidentally pulled something the wrong way, hit the nail too hard on something or if it was just that day. My nails would brake even when they were really short but it was much worse if they were longer. Two months ago I complained to a friend that works in a beauty salon and she said that I have dehydrated nails and that’s why they brake. Never before have I thought of anything like that because even if I tried to fix the situation with nourishing oils it usually didn’t help. She recommended a moisturizing base coat.

Ob naslednjem obisku drogerije sem se takoj podala v lov in hitro zastala pri Catrice stojalu, saj so mi Catrice laki za nohte zelo všeč. Ker nisem našla ničesar samo za vlaženje, sem se odločila poskusiti s tem. Catrice 9 in 1 Nail Elixir ima torej 9 izbranih sestavih, ki noht negujejo. Negovalni lak je pakiran v tipični embalaži kot vsi ostali laki od njih, čopič je dovolj širok, da je nanos enostaven in hiter. Sam lak je mlečno bele prosojne barve, vendar pa nohta ne obarva, tako da tudi barve laka, ki ga nanesete čez, ne spremeni. Nohtu da izredno lep sijaj, prav tako pa sem opazila, da se tudi barvni lak, ki ga nanesem naknadno, lepše sveti. Vonj je spet tipičen za lake, vendar pa ne premočan in tudi hitro se razdiši. Lak se hitro posuši, sijaj pa ostane dokler ga ne odstranimo.

The next time I visited a drugstore I went on a hunt and I stopped by the Catrice stand, because I really do like Catrice nail polish. Because I couldn’t find anything for moisturizing only I decided to try this one out. Catrice 9 in 1Nail Elixir has 9 selected ingredients that nourish the nail. The nourishing nail polish is packaged in a typical packaging as the other nail polishes from them, the brush is wide enough so the application is easy and fast. The polish itself is milky white translucent color but it doesn’t color the nail, so it also doesn’t alter the colored nail polish you apply over it. It gives a gorgeous shine to the nail and I also noticed that the colored polish I apply after also shines much nicer. The scent is typical for polishes but not too strong and it doesn’t linger long. The polish dries fast and the shine stays until it’s removed.

Odkar uporabljam tale negovalni lak lahko mirno rečem, da se mi ni zlomil niti en noht. Prišla sem od tega, da sem imela skoz zlomljene nohte, do tega, da nimam sedaj niti enega, pa če so nohti kratki ali dolgi. Skoraj bi lahko rekla, da mi je tale podlak spremenil življenje, saj več nisem niti tako previdna pri vsakdanjih opravilih kot prej. Nohte je definitivno naredil bolj prožne. Lak uporabljam vedno, tudi kot samostojni lak, za lep lesk in seveda nego. Sama imam tudi brazdaste nohte in lak tudi te malenkost prekrije, zapolni.

I can honestly say that since I’ve been using this nourishing nail polish not one nail broke. I came from broken nails all the time to not having a broken nail if it’s short or long. I could almost say that this base coat changed my life because I’m not that cautious with everyday activity like before. It definitely made my nails more flexible. I use the nail polish all the time, by itself for a nice shine and for nail care. I also have ridges on my nails and it helps with that a little as well.

Jaz še nikoli nisem bila tako navdušena nad negovalnim lakom, kot sem nad tem in mislim, da bo z mano ostal večno. Edini minus v mojem primeru je ta, da mi nohti še hitreje rastejo kot prej, kar pa meni ni všeč, saj imam rada kratke nohte. 🙂 Ampak za marsikoga bo verjetno tudi to plus. Če imate torej kakšne koli težave z nohti vam priporočam Catrice 9 in 1 Nail Elixir in verjamem, da si bodo tudi vaši nohti opomogli. Lak lahko kupite v vsaki drogeriji, ki prodaja Catrice izdelke, zanj pa boste odšteli okrog 3€.

I have never been so impressed by a nourishing nail polish as I am with this one and I think it will stay with me forever. The only minus is that my nails grow even faster then before and I don’t like that because I like my nails short. 🙂 But for many this will probably be a plus as well. If you have any problems with your nails I recommend you Catrice 9 in 1 Nail Elixir and I believe that your nails will also recover. You can buy the polish in every drugstore that sells Catrice products and you will pay around 3€ for it.

Radi se imejte in veliko se smejte! 😉
