It's actually more pink, almost fuchsia. I have no idea why I haven't worn it before (!), it's such a beautiful color and it has a great shimmer and nice bluish reflection. Actually I have many Anytime's nail polishes which I haven't worn yet so you are going to see many polishes from this brand...<br /><br />And as you can see, polishes do not get old.

I think it's the most beautiful pink I've ever seen and I just have to order it one day.

In these pictures it's a bit too blue, it's actually more emerald.<br /><br />Finally I added a layer of Anytime's Sparkling Fizz on top and that actually made me almost to like this manicure.

A huge part of them are so old that they aren't even available anymore. And the fact is that nail polishes don't get too old, you can almost always revive them and use every bit of them. So I got an idea to start a new serie:<br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">The Old-Timer of the Week</span>.<br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">And here's this weeks Old-Timer:<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_-r15V-E1S3Q/SZ3HKpWh64I/AAAAAAAAAfE/zGTYcsMMzls/s1600-h/SI851812.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_-r15V-E1S3Q/SZ3HKpWh64I/AAAAAAAAAfE/zGTYcsMMzls/s320/SI851812.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5304614921825282946" border="0" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />Anytime Celebration.<br /><br />Everyone in Finland knows Anytime. It's a brand that doesn't exist anymore (discontinued in summer 2008) but almost every make up using Finnish girl has started with Anytime. If you know the Finnish cosmetic brand "Lumene" this is it's "little sister", something similar that Maybelline is to Loreal.<br /><br />This was the same nail polish that I was using four years ago with my matching "prom dress". It's really girly with beautiful shimmer. I still love this color! Don't have any idea why I haven't used this since.<br />And as you can see it really is an old-timer, here's the best before -day:<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_-r15V-E1S3Q/SZ3HK6ipzCI/AAAAAAAAAfM/MapQ8yenfLI/s1600-h/SI851814.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_-r15V-E1S3Q/SZ3HK6ipzCI/AAAAAAAAAfM/MapQ8yenfLI/s320/SI851814.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5304614926439533602" border="0" /></a><br /><br />06/2007!

The metallic purple color is to die for and it applies well with no visible brush strokes.<br /><br />After awhile I wanted to get decorative and try out my NYX Girls polish (CN227) with hearts:<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_-r15V-E1S3Q/SZq8C_7tNsI/AAAAAAAAAd8/A9tkfmU4lLQ/s1600-h/SI851783.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_-r15V-E1S3Q/SZq8C_7tNsI/AAAAAAAAAd8/A9tkfmU4lLQ/s320/SI851783.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5303758270889801410" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_-r15V-E1S3Q/SZq8DPma2gI/AAAAAAAAAeE/cESfpLhSMFA/s1600-h/SI851786.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_-r15V-E1S3Q/SZq8DPma2gI/AAAAAAAAAeE/cESfpLhSMFA/s320/SI851786.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5303758275095484930" border="0" /></a><br /><br />Not sure if I like those hearts or not. At least there should be more hearts in the clear polish itself. It took me two layers to set all these hearts and I just don't even know how to place them without making it look messy. Ideas, advices...? Because now they just look badly placed nailstickers...<br /><br />Finally I did the final adjustment and added a layer of Nyx Girls CN229. Not sure if it made my manicure better or worse. Maybe a little better?<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_-r15V-E1S3Q/SZrBdTKWsuI/AAAAAAAAAeM/pk02aVO5_vg/s1600-h/SI851789.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_-r15V-E1S3Q/SZrBdTKWsuI/AAAAAAAAAeM/pk02aVO5_vg/s320/SI851789.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5303764220286251746" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_-r15V-E1S3Q/SZrBdVqhnoI/AAAAAAAAAeU/-AIUE9LD7vE/s1600-h/SI851790.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_-r15V-E1S3Q/SZrBdVqhnoI/AAAAAAAAAeU/-AIUE9LD7vE/s320/SI851790.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5303764220958056066" border="0" /></a><br /><br />But like I said yesterday, at the moment I'm more into simple, plain manicures.

The bottle of Maybelline's Gold Delight was almost empty so I had to do something with it. I haven't done any tips with Konad so this was my first attempt. It didn't turn out as cool as I thought it would be, because those leopard tips became too wide. But it was wild enough to wear for one day!<br /></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1834441023754885421.post-39946215902110382242009-02-15T20:28:00.000+02:002009-02-15T20:52:09.025+02:00China Glaze Down Under Dusk<div style="text-align: center;">At the moment I'm also really into nude, chocolate toned polishes. Here's one edible manicure:<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_-r15V-E1S3Q/SZhheJ35a3I/AAAAAAAAAdM/rVEMHz_Xqj4/s1600-h/SI851747.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_-r15V-E1S3Q/SZhheJ35a3I/AAAAAAAAAdM/rVEMHz_Xqj4/s320/SI851747.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5303095731903097714" border="0" /></a><br /><br />The polish is China Glaze's Down Under Dusk. I'ts so soft and light and it actually looks like creamy fudge! I don't know why I'm so into these boring tones at the moment, but for some reason they appeal to me and I just <span style="font-style: italic;">have</span> to polish my nails with them evetough I have a whole lot of much more interesting polishes!<br /><br />I'm also really into plain and simple manicures at the moment. I don't need many details and decorations, just a simple and chic nail polish.<br /><br />Is anyone else living a boring era right now?<br /></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1834441023754885421.post-5078598994746079772009-02-12T18:38:00.000+02:002009-02-12T19:36:25.330+02:00China Glaze Cherish (Romantique)<div style="text-align: center;">Today I'm wearing China Glaze's Cherish from Romantique Collection:<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_-r15V-E1S3Q/SZRRiEeFWoI/AAAAAAAAAc0/BEgieNgA154/s1600-h/SI851737.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_-r15V-E1S3Q/SZRRiEeFWoI/AAAAAAAAAc0/BEgieNgA154/s320/SI851737.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5301952307079240322" border="0" /></a><br /><br />It's a cute, pale and soft green polish with metallic shimmer. You'd only need one coat but I used two coats to make it more even. The polish itself is great. I hardly ever wear green polishes and I really don't like them that much, but for some reason I like this one very much. Maybe it's because this ain't so bright?<br /><br />And like I said the polish itself is great, but look at my ring finger. LOL! I was supposed to do red Konad flowers but then I got lazy and just added some stickers and they turned out really, really horrible. I struggled with them one day but I just have to take them off now, they look so tacky.<br /><br />Are you into green polishes?<br /></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1834441023754885421.post-57192809567264055752009-02-11T22:06:00.000+02:002009-02-11T22:49:41.071+02:00China Glaze Red Stallion and Sexy<div style="text-align: center;">I'm sorry I haven't been able to write that often lately. I've been pretty busy with all the other things and didn't have that much time to play with my nails and polishes. I'll try to find more time and write more often, I promise!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_-r15V-E1S3Q/SZMzJDoFoyI/AAAAAAAAAcs/EVGuAqMVb2k/s1600-h/SI851733.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_-r15V-E1S3Q/SZMzJDoFoyI/AAAAAAAAAcs/EVGuAqMVb2k/s320/SI851733.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5301637417030492962" border="0" /></a><br /><br />Today I'm wearing China Glaze's Red Stallion (one coat) and Sexy on top of that (one coat also). Red stallion covers well, but Sexy is more see-through so they are a great couple together. Red Stallion is a warm, deep red polish and one coat of Sexy on top of it makes it look more orange-toned red. Sexy also leaves lovely, shimmery surface.<br />Cute Valentine's day nails!<br /><br />China Glaze's polishes are definitely my favourite polishes. I do like OPI also but these I like even more. They almost never fail me, I've had only one China Glaze's polish which I didn't like enough to keep it and sold it forwards (Sex on the Beach). Is anyone else in love with China Glaze's polishes? Usually everybody prefers OPI more.<br /><br />And as you can see my nails are quite short at the moment. For some reason they just keep tearing, splitting and breaking. Last friday I started to eat biotin (5 mg/day) and now I'm just keeping my fingers crossed that my nails would grow fast and be stronger. It just feels that it will take forever to find out if the biotin really works for me. I believe it will take about three months before the whole nail has grown out and before it's stronger. Shame that I'm one of those persons who wants everything to happen right now...<br /></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1834441023754885421.post-40593933224133103452009-02-09T21:15:00.000+02:002009-02-09T21:50:11.109+02:00Lumene Cinderella Story<div style="text-align: center;">Look at this beauty!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_-r15V-E1S3Q/SZCCFhrMZHI/AAAAAAAAAcU/WMo05XGyrYE/s1600-h/SI851726.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_-r15V-E1S3Q/SZCCFhrMZHI/AAAAAAAAAcU/WMo05XGyrYE/s320/SI851726.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5300879792865567858" border="0" /></a><span style="display: block;" id="formatbar_Buttons"><span class="on down" style="display: block;" id="formatbar_JustifyCenter" title="Align Center" onmouseover="ButtonHoverOn(this);" onmouseout="ButtonHoverOff(this);" onmouseup="" onmousedown="CheckFormatting(event);FormatbarButton('richeditorframe', this, 11);ButtonMouseDown(this);"><img src="http://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gif" alt="Align Center" class="gl_align_center" border="0" /></span></span><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_-r15V-E1S3Q/SZCCF3OzQVI/AAAAAAAAAcc/3V5Tkp_TrTE/s1600-h/SI851730.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_-r15V-E1S3Q/SZCCF3OzQVI/AAAAAAAAAcc/3V5Tkp_TrTE/s320/SI851730.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5300879798652059986" border="0" /></a><br /><br />Lumene Cinderella Story.<br /><br />I just found this lovely polish from my collection and I'm totally in love with it! I'm not sure if I even have worn it before, I've probably just tossed it with my other polishes after I've got it from work last autumn. Well, yesterday I decided to give it a try and now I'm totally hooked!<br /><br />It covers well, it's easy to apply and it has adorable golden shimmer (which I couldn't capture perfectly in these pictures). Plus it's pink! It also stays well: I've worn this polish for two days before I took these pictures and in those two days I've been cleaning, scrubing and dealing with water <span style="font-style: italic;">a lot</span>! And the polish still looks almost like I've just polished my nails! What else can you ask from a perfect nail polish!<br /><3></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1834441023754885421.post-11644411528027870162009-02-06T23:12:00.000+02:002009-02-06T23:37:10.095+02:00OPI Play 'Til Midnight<div style="text-align: center;">Here's a great, midnight blue polish: OPI Play 'Til Midnight.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-r15V-E1S3Q/SYyp9pp9evI/AAAAAAAAAcE/1CtVstfXllo/s1600-h/SI851706.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-r15V-E1S3Q/SYyp9pp9evI/AAAAAAAAAcE/1CtVstfXllo/s320/SI851706.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5299797738127194866" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-r15V-E1S3Q/SYyp-OAP9PI/AAAAAAAAAcM/CAARKPDilBo/s1600-h/SI851708.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-r15V-E1S3Q/SYyp-OAP9PI/AAAAAAAAAcM/CAARKPDilBo/s320/SI851708.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5299797747884356850" border="0" /></a><br /><br />This one is from Holiday in Toyland Collection.<br />It's really dark and deep blue and in less lighting it looks almost balck.

I must try that combo sometime.<br /><br />At the moment I'm really into these light polishes.

Yippee, this was the second polish this year!</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1834441023754885421.post-53172598508303186662009-02-01T22:58:00.000+02:002009-02-01T23:24:17.132+02:00OPI Charmed By A Snake<div align="center"> Today's polish is OPI's Charmed By A Snake:</div><div align="center"> </div><div align="center"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_-r15V-E1S3Q/SYYOsU0zyjI/AAAAAAAAAZk/HfuzJgiI2mY/s1600-h/SI851681.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5297938166315207218" style="WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_-r15V-E1S3Q/SYYOsU0zyjI/AAAAAAAAAZk/HfuzJgiI2mY/s320/SI851681.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_-r15V-E1S3Q/SYYOr69lR9I/AAAAAAAAAZU/OXXpnmEAUSQ/s1600-h/SI851668.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5297938159372683218" style="WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_-r15V-E1S3Q/SYYOr69lR9I/AAAAAAAAAZU/OXXpnmEAUSQ/s320/SI851668.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-r15V-E1S3Q/SYYOsNX9DAI/AAAAAAAAAZc/9h589HW6jjI/s1600-h/SI851676.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5297938164315130882" style="WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-r15V-E1S3Q/SYYOsNX9DAI/AAAAAAAAAZc/9h589HW6jjI/s320/SI851676.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br />This is a really pretty chocolate colored polish with a light, golden shimmer. It covers quite well, but I'm still using three coats in these pictures (first one indoors, second and third outdoors). I don't think these pictures are showing the true color of this polish. Actually it's darker than in those outdoor pictures but not as yellow as in indoor picture.<br /><br />For some reason I just wanted a really simple manicure today. No Konad, glitters, stickers or anything. Just a nice and simple polish. And because the manicure is so simple I don't think I have anything else to say about it. Nice polish and I'll keep using it in the future.<br /></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1834441023754885421.post-12787529986224755062009-01-29T23:02:00.000+02:002009-01-30T10:36:44.085+02:00Water marbling, first attempt<div align="center">Today I finally got the water marbling technique right and I was able to do all my nails using it.<br /></div><br /><div align="center">Here's my masterpiece: </div><div align="center"><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5296828069309213058" style="WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_-r15V-E1S3Q/SYIdELN-aYI/AAAAAAAAAX4/IzMvkvST0Ew/s320/SI851624.JPG" border="0" /></div><br /><div align="center"><br />Sadly all of the nails weren't that excellent.

The polishes that I used were Maybelline's French White and China Glaze's Rich and famous. After I had finished with my marbling and cleaned my fingers (there was plenty of polish to wipe off!) I used one coat of Anytime's Sparkling fizz to add a little sparkle.</div><br /><div align="center">If you want to learn about water marbling just type it to the Youtube and you will find many informative videos.</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1834441023754885421.post-3899520515454138012009-01-28T21:37:00.000+02:002009-01-28T22:26:52.999+02:00IsaDora Diamond Blue<div align="center"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_-r15V-E1S3Q/SYC7u1k3jWI/AAAAAAAAAXo/lnL6ge7EI9w/s1600-h/SI851582.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5296439575117794658" style="WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_-r15V-E1S3Q/SYC7u1k3jWI/AAAAAAAAAXo/lnL6ge7EI9w/s320/SI851582.JPG" border="0" /></a> </div><div align="center"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_-r15V-E1S3Q/SYC4G10-rXI/AAAAAAAAAXY/_wkKBiqG1YM/s1600-h/IsaDora+2.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5296435589455719794" style="WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: pointer; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_-r15V-E1S3Q/SYC4G10-rXI/AAAAAAAAAXY/_wkKBiqG1YM/s320/IsaDora+2.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /></div><div align="center">Don't you just love the cool, shimmery and light blue tone?<br />Isn't it pretty?

You just can not polish precisely with it.<br />- It's too short. The short brush just makes it really hard to work with. When you are adding a layer, suddenly a massive<br />flow of polish comes down from the part where the bristles are attached to the short and width brush and it makes a real mess. </div><br /><div align="center"></div><div align="center">Other negative things:<br />-The bottle so small, only 6 ml of nail polish inside.<br />-It really costs a lot, almost 8 euros.

The polish isn't mine, it's my mom's. Every time I go and see my mom I just have to try a polish from her collection and hope that I won't fall in love with that certain polish so I don'thave to order new polishes...</div><br /><div align="center"><br />Cross Iron 360 is really nice copper/orange polish. It's not too dark or deep copper but not too bright orange either. It has a subtle shimmer which makes it nice and vibrant. I almost feel like buying it but I know I can't. Not at the moment. I've got too many bottles to empty before I'm even allowed to think about buying. </div><br /><div align="center">And oh, didn't I mention this yet: I've bought some new nail polishes last week... I'm a bit ashamed because I could only manage three weeks without buying polishes. That's not good at all! So now I just have to pull my self together! No more new nail polishes for me (not at least in the next month...)! </div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1834441023754885421.post-19779518206659033112009-01-22T21:37:00.001+02:002009-01-22T22:02:49.405+02:00OPI Skinny Dip'n in Lake Michig'n + OPI Princesses Rule!<div align="center"><br /> </div><div align="center">Today I'm finally wearing different polishes at the same time.</div><div align="center"><br /></div><div align="center"></div><div align="center"><br /></div><div align="center"></div><div align="center"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_-r15V-E1S3Q/SXjO4nOOYRI/AAAAAAAAAXA/8al5CIn3Yvk/s1600-h/SI851558.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5294208833970659602" style="WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_-r15V-E1S3Q/SXjO4nOOYRI/AAAAAAAAAXA/8al5CIn3Yvk/s320/SI851558.JPG" border="0" /></a></div><div align="center"><br />I started with <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">OPI</span> Skinny <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">Dip'n</span> in Lake <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">Michig'n</span>...</div><div align="center"><br /></div><div align="center"></div><div align="center"><br /></div><div align="center"></div><div align="center"><br /></div><div align="center"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_-r15V-E1S3Q/SXjL5z-biWI/AAAAAAAAAWo/ekrK2_kphqc/s1600-h/SI851563.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5294205556039059810" style="WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_-r15V-E1S3Q/SXjL5z-biWI/AAAAAAAAAWo/ekrK2_kphqc/s320/SI851563.JPG" border="0" /></a></div><div align="center"><br /></div><div align="center">...and added one coat of Princesses rule! on top of that.</div><div align="center"><br /></div><div align="center"><br /></div><div align="center"></div><div align="center"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_-r15V-E1S3Q/SXjL6bygB8I/AAAAAAAAAWw/3KTU-fNv8m4/s1600-h/SI851567.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5294205566726440898" style="WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_-r15V-E1S3Q/SXjL6bygB8I/AAAAAAAAAWw/3KTU-fNv8m4/s320/SI851567.JPG" border="0" /></a></div><div align="center"><br />After that I made white stripes with white decoration lacquer.
