Back & Bark

Hello fellow human beings who love nail art XD

I've been back in Malaysia almost a week now and FINALLY got my hands on some mavala nail polish remover XD

If you follow my instagram @chronosz then you would know that I bought everything bottle in the store and reserved some from the next shipment XD

Stocking up for the future is so crucial I tell you! CRUCIAL!! 

Anyways, I broke a couple of my nails at the airport and was just heart broken </3

HEART BROKEN!!

Oh well, that's what I get when I don't paint my nails or at least use nail envy for more than 2 weeks ><

Getting on with the mani!

Shorts nails always turn me off since I can't draw much on them 

not that I draw much in the first place 

so I usually stick to single colours and in this case RED 

my friend did give me and idea to make it less plain tho

Check it out! ^^

This is obviously from my instagram and with filter XD

And this is without the filter =)

I quite like the effect of it. This kinda makes it look like tree bark to me XD
Hence the title =P

Can't wait for my nails to grow back XD
Cheers!

Mavala Nail Polish Remover Review

A good nail polish remover is a nailpolishaholic's best friend!
My friend recommended this brand to me a couple of years ago 

and I've been using it ever since! XD

Introducing...

MAVALA NAIL POLISH REMOVER!!

There are 2 types of Mavala Nail Polish...

The pink bottle is without acetone while the other is with acetone!

Obviously I like the blue one better since it removes the nail polish more easily!

^^

I would rate this nail polish remover...

9/10!

The minus 1 is because it doesn't really remove glitter that well but

not many removers can...when I find that one that CAN then I'll rate it

10/10!

Actually I ran out of mavala a while ago and when I went to restock...

The horror started! D8

All the stores that I went to were OUT OF STOCK! =(

In the end, I got a couple of bottles during my Singapore trip! XD

It was slightly more expensive but so worth it! 

Phewww! Look out for the next review! ^^

Cheers!

MAVALA Cuticle Cream

As you know, I have been having dry cuticle issues ><"

All the good cuticle creams are really expensive...

I was about to buy Sally Hansen's cuticle oil then I saw 

MAVALA's cuticle cream!

MAVALA's acetone nail polish remover is really good so 

I thought I'd give the cuticle cream a try =)

So this is how it looks like...small...but who'd use so much cuticle cream!

When I saw 'CREAM'...I was expecting something white and creamy like hand cream

but inside is actually a yellowish ointment looking substance...

I guess it's called cream because it's too thick to be considered as oil...

It feels uber oily fyi...=.=...it smells bad too T___T

I can't stand putting my hands near my face now since it smells bad TT____TT

It's had it's desired effects so far...

If you compare it to the photo BEFORE I applied the cuticle cream...

You can still see the dry parts...=(

I'll have a follow up post soon to share the usefulness of the cuticle cream...

but I wouldn't buy it again just because of the awful smell it has...=(

Cheers!
