Happy Mid-Autumn Festival!

Happy Mid-Autumn Festival! 

Or in my case, Happy Lantern/Mooncake Festival! =)

In conjunction with the event, here's a lantern mani using Moyou London's Zodiac plate!!!

I actually wanted stamp with a green polish over Miss Ashleigh's Midnight Shadows but it didn't really work out so I went the other way. 

I painted 3 layers of green OPI tint and stamped using Mundodeunas black. The design came out quite nice! 

That's it for this post! 
Cheers!

P/S: Eat more mooncakes!

I'm The Corny Kind!

Hey guys! 

I've got another inspired mani for you guys and I'm pretty sure most of you know the person I got the inspiration from!

Just in case you dont, let me introduce Lindy from BubzBeauty. She is a beauty blogger and also a vlogger. I love watching her vlogs! 

Recently, she is currently hosting an online donation drive by selling a sweater with her original design on it. All sales proceeds will be used to fund fully functional schools in Laos. 

(PC: BubzBeauty)

She previously had a similar drive with her 'I'm A Unicorn' tank top which is back on sale btw! Can you guess the design for this drive yet? 

Introducing the 'I'm The Corny Kind' Sweater!

Yup, poop! That's what I painted! 

It's actually quite cute no? Colours used :

Base coat - Essence Ultra Strong Nail Hardener
Grey - Miss Ashleigh A Clean Slate 
Design - Acrylic Paint
Top Coat - Glisten & Glow HK Girl 

If any of you are interested in purchasing the sweater, click here. 

On the other hand, if you would just like to donate then click here. 

That's it for this post!

RWBY

Hello all!

I'm not really feeling the other Halloween manis so here's another anime inspired mani instead!

I've been meaning to watch this anime for some time now since my bf was talking about it. It's an English animation with awesome battle scenes and although each episode is only 15 minutes long, it's freaking awesome!

So, this design was inspired by the monsters in the anime called grimm. I couldn't really get a clear image of them from the anime so i asked mr. Google. 

I found illustrations of the grimm on deviant art. 

I think this is quite good work considering I'm still a noob at acrylic paint. Check it out!

See you guys next time!
Cheers!

Monsters, Bats & Anime

Hello all!

Halloween is drawing near and here I am behind on my nail art challenge...and also working overtime but enough about that!

So I have  recently completed watching seasons 1 and 2 of the anime, Rosario Vampire. There is still cute and funny bat that narrates the first season and I just thought that I had to paint it and as luck may have it that the challenge needed a monster XD

So here's Kou-chan the bat! 

The base is Australis Peek-a-boo which is a nice creme violet. The design was painted on with acrylic paint.

That's it for this week! Stay tuned for more!
Cheers!

#HalloweenChallenge2013 Day 5 - Zombie

Hello all!

More challenge manis!

So October 5th's theme is zombie...

gwahhhhhhhhhhhh

(did you just think the gwahhhhhh in a zombie voice?)

=P

As you can see, I am terrible at drawing zombies...thus only the hand it visible! XD

I was going for a gory look for the framed nails...I think it looks good =)

This is the pic with the instagram filter.

I think it looks more gory! Which is awesome! XD

That's it for this post!

The next theme is witches which I am quite excited about!

I've got some designs prepared and might be using some konad stamps as well 

Till next time!

Cheers!

#Nailartsep 19 - Feathers

'Even though it hurts, I can't slow down

Walls are closing in and I hit the ground

Whispers of tomorrow echo in my mind

Just one last time~~~'

Sorry for the singing hello but I'm seriously addicted to David Guetta's song Just One Last Time at the moment. Oh yes and I am late once again with posting. Gonna get hectic with the end of my final semester but I'll pull through. I CAN and I WILL!

For the 19th of September, the theme was feathers. 

I did a really nice feather design before coupled with a dream catcher...I think...It was so hard to find the photo in my phone gallery!

Remembering that mani kinda made my head swell and in the end was wayyyyyyy too confident with drawing the feathers and it ended up super crappy. =(

The final result!

 As you can see, I am still super curious about konad. There was a feather design on one of the plates so tried it out. Was going for a 'leaves falling in Autumn' kind of feel. The colour was so light that you can't really see the feathers but it's the better compared to the free hand feathers. The yellow feather is the worst! It looks like a durian now...

I realize that I am getting very lazy in my designs. I have to admit that assignments are piling up but nail art is way for me to relax. Doesn't really help when the design comes out bad but @californails nail art challenge gives me something to paint. If I had to think of my own themes to paint then I think I would be stressed out of my mind by now! 

A lot more posts are coming your way people! 

Get prepared!

Cheers!

September...A Month of Challenges...Day 1

Hello all!
It is the 1st of September,

I am currently on Spring break,

Today is my mother's birthday,

and it is the first day of @californails #nailartsept challenge!

The first deems it is time for camo nails!

Camo is short for camouflage...if you didn't already know! XD

This is actually my first time attempting camo nails. 

I don't think it's the best but looks good to me! 

Look forward to more designs yeah!

I've got a really great swatch for you guys which I will upload tonight.

That's it for this post.

Cheers,

-Jing-

Nyannnnnnnnnnn

Hello nail art lovers! 
I am back in Melbourne and have access to ALL my polishes now! XD 
What is the first nail art that I did? 
If the title didn't give it away then the mani will do the thick! =P

My friend actually challenged me to do this mani! 
Then I went all Barney Stinson and said, "Challenge Accepted!"
LOL

This was a really fun mani to paint although I did get the proportions wrong again ><
That's it for this mani! Technically this isn't the mani I started the semester with. I painted my favorite Green Apple Mint from Essie topped with Nubar's Black Polkadots! 

Happy Back to School/Uni/College! 
Cheers!
^^ 




Here's the video for fun!! 

BANANA!!!!!!!

Could anyone guess what the post is about from the title only? 

Well if you couldn't guess then I'll just have to tell you now won't I!

DESPICABLE ME 2

Can't wait to see this movie! 

I love cartoons A LOT! 

I've been meaning to do this mani since the first movie but you know how lazy I am =P

Well since the second movie is coming out...MIGHT AS WELL!

MINIONS MANI!!!

Pssstttt! Did you notice the evil minion hiding in the crowd?

You did?! Hahahaha I seriously did not know about the evil minion till 2 days ago and thought I should paint it too! XD

It loves bananas as much as the next minion! ^^

That's it for this mani! 

Cheers!

X'Mas Mani 08 - A Christmas Carol

In my previous post, I mentioned that I had already painted 

'Dickens Christmas Carol' themed nails.

HERE THEY ARE! ^^

I got the inspiration from the 2009 Disney's A Christmas Carol starring Jim Carrey!

I think the Ghost of Christmas Future is wrong though..=(

Looks more like Assassin Creed to me ><

I tried my best. Nothing else to be done. =)

Cheers!

& Happy Holidays!
