I love Mr Men and Little Miss stories! Don't you?? Of course you do! =D
I've been trying to find the whole collection but of course when I finally find one it's super duper extremely over my budget. =( 
I WILL OWN YOU ONE DAY! 

So here's today's mani featuring Little Miss Bad, Little Miss Sunshine, Mr Bump & Mr Happy! 

Seriously want a thinner brush...I'm too scared to trim it myself >< Been trying to source nice detailing brushes. Do let me know if you guys know anywhere with good ones. =)

That's it for this post! 
Cheers! ^^ 

#Nailartsep 26 - Water colour/Water marbling

Me again! 

More of @californails #nailartsep challenge on Instagram!

For the 26th, the theme was water colour and there is a nail art technique to create a beautiful water colour effect on your nails which I tried out of course.

I did a trial run before painting the actual mani which ended in DISASTER.

Didn't get the chance to take a photo of it but you wouldn't want to see it anyway...you would go blind...*just kidding* XD

I followed this Youtube tute for the water colour effect!

Maybe you guys would get a better result than I did!

Getting back onto the challenge!

Since the water colour did not work I decided to do some water marbling =)

Like a lot of others, my first time water marbling was HORRIBLE!

This is probably my fourth or fifth time doing it and I think I've improved a lot.

I still need to find out how to get a nice pattern onto my nail though XD

Here's what I got.

I am obviously still in love with this polish but on the other hand, my choice of colours was seriously BAD! I don't think the colours gelled at all! The middle finger would be the best among the lot. 

That's it for this post!

More to come!
Cheers!

#Nailartsep 22 - Nature

Hey guys...

I feel like *flip table*-ing on myself! 

I wrote on instagram that I would post this the day after challenge but no such thing...

I can't really recall why the mani is so bad, I know there were multiple things going wrong the day before thus the horrible effort nature mani. 

Yeah...so obviously I am still experimenting with the konad plates.

FYI! I received my parcel from Bundle Monster and am in LOVE with the patterns! ^^

I think among all the nails, the little finger looks the most presentable.

I wish that I could finish all my assignments so that I could concentrate on nail art but that's just me dreaming! Another 3 more weeks and another life challenge is waiting for me after that! Nail art will forever be my salvation from the hardships of life. Although, you can tell what kind of mood I'm in from the details of the mani! =P

Anywayz, I am 3 posts late with @californails #nailartsep challenge so I better get to blogging!

Cheers!

Konad noob in the house!

Yo!

Konad noob here!

Ha ha ha ! 

Hey guys!

I got a whole bunch of konad plates from bornprettystore.com and is super into trying to stamp stuff on my nails now!

^^

This is my nail mail from that day! Konad plates, studs, brushes and was surprised to find an extra hello kitty nail decal as a gift!

SCORE!

ANYWAY!

Here's my NOTD!

This is actually NOT my first time using konad plates.

I tried it out when I firstly started doing nail art...which was around 3 years ago...

WOW...how fast do the years past!

I wasn't all that good at it back then and I don't think that I'm any good at it now either.

I do think that this came out pretty nicely! =)

For the base, I used Dotti Light Blue!

I just grabbed this off the store counter because it was so pretty and absolutely NO regrets whatsoever! Light blue is a great polish which is easy to apply, opaque and even in 2 coats, and does not stain!

The pattern is from the konad plate M65.

I couldn't help myself from trying out the plates as soon as I could.

Behind the scenes notes; while I had the football mani on my left hand, I had a different mani on my right!

Kinda hard to see the clouds. Mostly because it wasn't stamped well and there isn't much of a contrast between the colours. I just thought it would match and it would look cute! ^^

I used this plate for this mani.

Sorry for the unrefined edges of the plates.

Been experimenting with Photoshop which obviously did not come out well.

><

Oh well! Live and let learn!

If you guys haven't tried out konad then I suggest you do! 

It's pretty fun and simple to use. 

That's it for this post!
Cheers!

^^

P/S: I've already painted the next mani for @californails #Nailartsep 13!

Look forward to it!
