15 - Culture

thought i'd do some sketches for the turtle swamp people on two moons. they mostly just wear a tube of fabric and then accessorise with jewellery and headwraps, so there's not much i could do tbh

German Staasi = ZiTis

Die „Zentrale Stelle für Informationstechnik im Sicherheitsbereich“ (Zitis) soll unter anderen Zugriff auf die Internet-Kommunikation durch Hacking erhalten. Die Behörde soll ihre Erkenntnisse an Geheimdienste, Polizei und Verfassungsschutz weiterleiten. Die Bundesregierung will dem Bericht zufolge mit dem Aufbau von Zitis einen anderen Weg gehen.

Swatching Zoya Staasi

I recently received my bottle of Zoya Staasi and it is indeed the most beautiful nail polish in the history of ever. Because it is sheer (it's a jelly), I wanted to try it over different colours. I chose greens, obviously, but also blues and a yellow because a lot of the glitter is (a gorgeous) blue and some of it is amber. I was hoping to be able to use Staasi as a green glitter topper, but at one coat it was disappointingly streaky, so I ended up using two. What I didn't know about Staasi before I bought it is that it is a holo, which ended up giving it a duochrome effect over the blues. I found it a little blinding in the sun, but it's gorgeous in the shade.

Top photos: 2 coats Zoya Staasi over undies (see below) in the shade.

Undies, thumb to pinky:

2 coats Rimmel mintilicious

2 coats Avon Lime Splatter

2 coats Color Club Take Me to Your Chateau

4 coats (!) Avon Honeydew Dazzle (nail line still visible!)

2 coats Sally Hansen Mellow Yellow

3 coats Sally Hansen Ivy League

1 coat Sally Hansen Pacific Blue (original formula)

2 coats L'Oréal Jet Set to Paris

2 coats Zoya Shawn

1 coat Nail Art blue

Below the undies I am showing what they looked like with one coat Staasi. They looked very streaky over the pale colours, but the dark colours looked great.
