New Blog Layout

Hello lovelies
For a while now I was thinking of changing my blog layout and I finally did it.I'm almost 100% happy with the way my blog looks,if only I could find somewhere instuctions on how to change the page menu I would be super happy.( If you know where can i find instructions please tell me :) )
For my previous layout I used shades of purple now I opted for pink.
So here's a before and after

I think it looks prettier than before.What do you think?
I also created a logo,2 nail polishes and 1 lipstick.I painted it from scratch using Photoshop with reference :)
I'm really happy with the look of logo and I love it :P
Overall I do enjoy this look for my blog more that before and I hope so do you.
I would love to hear you opinion about the new look :)

NYX Round lipsticks swatches

NYX round lipstick

Quite a while ago I bought those gorgeous 3 NYX round lipsticks in Apollo,Circe and Ceto.Those were my first lipsticks from NYX and I must say I'm really impressed with the lipsticks quality...All are pretty creamy,don't dry out my lips and have a decent lasting power.Here are the swatches:
~Apollo~
NYX round lipstick in Apollo
This is a really pretty orangy red lipstick and very pigmented.It has a beautiful shimmer with hint of light gold in it...It's a great shade if you want reddish lipstick but don't want to wear vivid red.

~Circe~
NYX round lipstick in Circe
Nude-ish beige color.I think this suits best for people with pale lips if you don't want your lips to look kinda dead..This one isn't very long lasting compared to the other 2 lipsticks.

~Ceto~
NYX round lipstick in Ceto
Oh my god this shade is by far my favorite lipstick I've owned so far...This is a beautiful,shimmery rosy color that will suit pretty much everyone I think :).I recieve a lot of compliments while wearing this lipstick.You should check it out!
Do you own any NYX lipsticks?Which shade is your favorite?  Let me know in the comments below!

OPI Step Right Up Photos,Swatches

The OPI Step Right Up is from Femme De Cirque Collection 2011.This polish is the most opaque out of the polishes in that collection.

For these swatches I used 3 coats of the polish with no base or top coat.

As you can see this is a really beautiful milky color with hit of pink in it.
The formula is smooth but it can be tricky to get an even finish with only 2 coats.
This the color I wanted for my french manicure ( in the next days I will have a video tutorial for professional looking french manicure).
What do you think of this polish? Do you own it?
