Polkadot and Matte Stripes


So I was trying out one of Sally Hansen's new nail polish line which is the Triple Shine ones. They are absolutely beautiful! When I first spot them I knew I need to get at least one of these. I like the packaging so much. The polish itself is really nice. Anyways, I won't bother you with the reviews. These polishes came out here like few months after I saw it first came out in the US. Therefore, there will be already a lot of reviews around the web.

This design is actually inspired from a bra. I really want to pose with it but hey, it will be very awkward and well... that bra has seen better days. Anyways I combine teal, black and matte top coat polishes for this design hope you like it.



Anyways, I just made a bloglovin account please take a minute and follow me there. Thanks

Toast Mani

I haven't post something for such a long time! So what I'm going to post some nail art I did about a month ago. I haven't post any because well, my phone is being weird and I keep all of my nail art photos there. I am learning how to use the camera, but no luck until now it looks worse than using my phone.

So the theme is toast mani and anything possible as  a topping. Got the inspiration while I was washing dishes and I was like hey, let's do this.

Anyway, I just bought the white polish from OPI it is called "Alpine Snow". I was like seriously? took me this long to grab this one? It is amazing, super easy to apply and no bald patches and all good stuff. I had serious problem with white polishes before they are just the hardest to work with.

So, what do you think of this mani?

Victoria Secret Fashion Show Inspired Mani

Hey guys! I'm finally back, I could finally paint my nails again. I did this one about a week ago but had no time to post it here. Anyway, this mani is inspired from 2013 Victoria Secret fashion show, this is inspired from the 'Pink Network' part of the show. It basically consists of everything social media related from emoticons, abbreviations and of course COLOURS!

To be honest, this year's VS show is the first ever show I ever watched. I thought fashion show is boring. However, after watching it I feel super inspired. To create this mani I watched it for like 5 times or more.

Anyways, what do you guys think?

NOTD: Alice in Wonderland Mani



Hey everyone! Today's mani is inspired from this cute pen I bought on eBay. I never actually bought a cute looking pen. I find that they are a complete waste of money. Usually they have a crappy quality and is not comfortable to write with. But I am in super in love with this pen and I just knew I have to get it! If you are interested with this pen, just search for 'Alice in Wonderland ballpoint pen' on eBay. I forgot from which seller I got this from and items on eBay just come and go, so...



 The pen is super adorable right? It has two colour black and blue. I am already inspired to recreate this pen on my nails for so long, but since I blended my nails like 2 months ago, I decided to wait until my nails are grown to finally do this.

Anyways, what do you guys think?

Leave me a comment, like this post and don't forget to follow! Thanks

Inspired by Burberry Brit's Scarf



Hi Guys, I did this one quite a while ago but I forgot to put it in the blog. I like this mani, I think it is simple but effective. I really like to use that sentence. The design is inspired from Burberry Brit's scarf. OOH if only I have the budget I'd really like to get that scarf!!! Can't afford it, but can recreate it on my tips :D

What do you guys think?

Lace and Jelly Red

Hi Guys! I'm so excited I finally finished my final exam and that means more time for my nails.

Anyway today I have a simple red mani featuring some lacey details. It is simple and I think it's effective.

The polish I use is Picture Polish's 'Vampire', it is a beautiful red jelly polish and shown is three coats. I got this polish from their giveaway, I'm so excited to win five shades from them! I only manage to swatch one of the five shades but bear with me others are coming.

Despite the name, I find this polish is also perfect for christmas. This nail art is perfect for the festive season.

The lacey accent is from Kit Cosmetic's nail art strips, I featured them right here, give it a click and see what I have to say about nail strips.

Anyway, I hope you guys like this mani, don't forget to like and follow my blog!

Simple Mani

Hi Guys! Been such a long time. I seriously missing nail art, but nothing much I can do. If you remember that I broke my nails. It started to grow but yeah... not good enough for nail art. However, this simple mani is such a lifesaver, it looks so good and I got a lot of compliments with it. I posted a nail art before inspired by Madeline Poole and today's post is also inspired by her.

Personally, I prefer simple but effective nail art rather than intricate nail art with a lot of details. I mean to begin with, they were so difficult to make but I don't know there's this great feeling of satisfaction after I finished that intricate nail art. However, those intricate nail art is kinda boring for me, maybe within 1 or 2 days I will wipe it off, but with simple mani, it goes a long way. I wiped this off on the 4th day of wear. Hehehe still not that long compared to others tho!

I really like this look. It matches every outfit and I think it is great for every season. It is very easy, all you need is just a sheer polish and some nail art striping tape (they were so cheap on ebay!).

So what's your take on this mani? Do you prefer simpler mani or intricate nail art?

Army Nail Art

Okay, So I blended my left index fingernail; ouch. So basically this means I can't paint on it. It tear all the way down to the middle so... yeah. I wish it could grow back quickly. So for the time being... I am not gonna do any nail art, simply because my right hand will be the star in pictures and I cannot do much with my left hand.

Anyway... I had a lots of nail arts I haven't post here. So today is a camo nail art. Always wanted to do this mani, but it's just so hard to get a great green camo nail polish. Finally got one from Revlon Colorstay range, it is called 'Spanish Moss'. Not usually a big fan of Revlon because they have this GREAT BIG bubble issues. Surprisingly, I kinda like this range. Ok I still have bubble issues but not as much; and I love the brush. What can I say?

What do you think? I think it is cute and perfect for fall or maybe it's the type of mani you would wear to an adventurous trip somewhere? And this mani is very easy to do.  After you paint your nails with camo-green nail polish, just wiggle and dab grey, black, yellow and brown. The good thing about this nail art is that you do not have to be neat or anything, it still look great.

Cherry Blossom Nail Art

Hey guys, spring is just a month away and I'm super excited about it. I can't really handle cold. You see my hands and feet are like always cold anytime everyday. I think that is why my hands are swollen. Anyway I did a little spring themed nail art. Who doesn't love cherry blossom?

So what do you guys think? Are you excited about spring just as I do?

Tribal Mani!

If you've been following my blog you know that I don't usually do intricate nail art. I wanted my nail art to be do-able on both hands so I have to keep it simple and easy. But I kinda went out of my comfort zone on this mani and I did this tribal mani. It's not perfect but hey spare me, this is the first time I do detailed nail art.

IMG_2820

I drew the detailed part with black acrylic paint. Have you guys tried using acrylic paint to draw on your nails? I totally recommend that. They are cheaper (I got mine for about 2 dollars) and they are easier to control. Just a quick tip, don't mix acrylic paint with water because it makes them less opaque and you don't want that right?

I used ombre effect for a more dramatic look. Polish used are Lime Crime's Pastelchio and China Glaze's White on. It's impossible to do detailed nail art on my right hand so I left it simple with ombre effect.

Galaxy Nails

OK! I did this nails like weeks ago and uploaded it on Instagram. Can't do nail art at the moment because my hands are swollen for what reasons I don't even know. It looks so ugly when painted so I just leave them bare. Well let my nails breathe for a while. 

I've always love galaxy nails look. It's not the easiest nail art to do. I mean it's just sponging the colours here and there, but the problem is what colour exactly? I've tried numerous times for this look, but unfortunately none of them actually worked out. However, this time I'm pretty pleased with how my galaxy nails turned out to be. YEAY

What do you guys think? Anyway I've been working on a better quality pictures. I got my Sony Camera back but seriously taking pictures from iPhone been so convenient to me that I forgot how to take pictures with actual camera. Do you guys have any idea how to do that? Please leave me a comment. Everytime I'm trying to take a pic of my nails it just blurred out and focused on the walls instead of my nails. Seriously super annoying. Here's a picture I took with my camera and polish I used for this mani.

Polish used: pink and purple from Kit Cosmetics 'Rock and Romance' minis, China Glaze 'White On' and Sally Hansen 'Disco Ball'. You see my problem here with cameras. Why is the picture so blue anyway? hahaha help me please?
