Ela Ama Esmaltes – Participação Especial da Lextard!

She Loves Nail Polishes – special guest Lextard!

If I´m a polish (totally) addicted today, crazy about different colors, about famous brands (or not), completely insane about brand new colors and all the new collections, I owe a lot of this for an especial person, and this person it´s Lextard, from Flickr! Alexa it´s responsable for a LOT of my foreigner colors and brands that I own! I´ve bought all of them just after saw them on her gallery!

So many people has the Lextard´s gallery like a virtual catalog of the best and coolest colors ever, including me: so many times I visited her gallery, picked the color I wanted to see it and have to hold myself to not buy that color! LOL

Lextard it´s my polish Diva! – it´s real! And I couldn´t lose the oportunity to invite her to tell us a little bit about a thing that all we love: polishes!

Therefore, if someone loves polish, this someone it´s Alexa!

Besides that, (she has more than 1000 polishes bottles!) she works on ” a boring job” – she´s a makeup artist from MAC. And I, such a curious person who I´m, question her about this job and she said to me: ” I only get to test the new products once they’re launched at the counter but I do makeup applications and makeovers all day on people 🙂”
WOW – I want a job like that too! 😀

Make this photo collage with Alexa´s pictures was fun to me, I felt like when I was a kid, in a big toy store! I wanted all, but I coudn´t! lol

The storage picture she sent to me, I`m wondering myself opening up all these!

1) Stop! What this green? Where I was that I don´t have this one?? And why OPI has discontinued this color? It´s the Creme de Menthe.
2) Guess who? lol  Jade, da Chanel
3) I´m not a glitter fan, but this have my attention: it´s Nfu – Oh, 45 over of a black polish!
4) Beauty Treats – Groovy: c´on! This lilac it´s sooo cute! *-*
5) Chanel forever, pink with golden shimmer – so fancy and gorgeous! It´s Sirene.
6) This orange it´s so cute, I´d like it for me! 🙂 Orange Fizz, Chanel too. (fancy!)
7)  This pic has a little history: when someone show me that photo, I was so enchanted with the nail art with the Peppermint Patti there – just because this picture I decided to buy my first Konad plate, the M71! It´s the nail art kind that I like, that´s not ugly and over.
8) It´s the Peppermint Patti, da MAC. Beautiful, huh?
9) If Ms. Essie it´s reading that, please pay attention! (LOL) – come back with this color please?!! Guys, I´m not a big fan of yellow polishes, but look that! The Barbuda Banana it´s the cutest yellow I´ve ever seen! And it´s discontinued. Please Essie, put it on stores again!! It´s like a candy, or something, huh, it´s gorgeous!
10) This is Rose Topping, from MAC. So different!

Well, welcome Alexa! It´s all your time! 🙂

What is your relantionship with polishes and what´s the importance of beautiful and done nails for you?
Since it’s a requirement at my job to have beautifully manicured nails, gorgeous polish is a must! I find that nail polish can really help express the mood you’re in on any given day. It also helps to cheer me up when I’m feeling down about something. Doing a bright neon colored mani will cheer anyone up!

How many nails polishes bottles do you have? And since when did you got this collection (and passion)?
I’d say I have well over 1000 bottles by now. I lost count after 500 lol, ah! I would say I started collecting regularly about a year and a half ago. It spiraled out of control after that.

At your color nails, you follow the trends and fashion, follow your sense of humor ou just take the first you find out in front of you?
I generally try to paint my nails with whatever collection is out at my job at the time (I’m a makeup artist for MAC). On my days off though, I like to use whatever is calling me that day.

Tell us about your manicure: how many times you get your own manicure on the week? And how is the process?
I probably do my nails around 2 or 3 times a week.  Once a week I clean up with Sally Hansen Instant Cuticle Remover. Otherwise, I start by removing my remaining polish. The base coat I use is Qtica Natural Nail Growth Stimulator. Followed by two or three coats of whatever color I use and I top it with my ultimate favorite top coat, Nubar Diamont. Best top coat ever!!

1) Instant Cuticle Remover, Sally Hansen - 2) Natural Nail Growth Stimulator, Qtica - 3) Nubar Diamont, Nubar - 4) Nail Envy Matte, OPI - 5) Lemony Flutter Cuticle Butter, Lush - 6) Nail Design Cuticle Eraser, Creative

How is your favorte product to moisturize your cuticles? And the one to have strong nails?
My favorite cuticle product is probably Creative Nail Design Cuticle Eraser or Lemony Flutter Cuticle Butter from
Lush. My favorite nail treatments are Qtica Natural Nail Growth Stimulator and OPI Nail Envy Matte.

What is the ugliest thing that you´ve ever seen on nails? (Like a huge nail art, piercing and all theses weird
things that have)
Probably the ugliest thing I’ve seen on nails are really long, overgrown false french tips that have turned yellow. Ew!!!

Tell me a polish (color polish) that is:

1) gorgeous: China Glaze – Ruby Pumps
2) basic: Essie – Jackie Oh My
3) essential: OPI – Lincoln Park After Dark

Fashion and nail polishes, for you, are just a:
Absolute necessity! What would life be without beautiful nails? Boring!

I really have to sayl that I completely loved her interview? Thanks so much, Alexa! For your attention and caress!
I was so happy that Alexa can bem appear here and show for you all more about her and her collection!

I hope you liked too!

xoxo
