A Belated Gong Xi Fa Cai

Elo all nail art lovers!
I know it's a bit late but...

GONG XI FA CAI!
HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR!

Since I have the time, I thought I would post something.
I'm on a roadtrip with my parents on Melbourne's Great Ocean Road.
It's kinda supposed to be their anual honeymoon slash sending me back to Melbourne for second term slash helping me move into my new apartment slash a trip for grandpa since he really wanted to go on one.

Anywayz...back onto nail polish!
I could only do a simple CNY mani since I had to fly off on the 3rd day of CNY.

The chinese writing on my thumb 蛇 means snake since it's the year of the snake.
The word on my ring finger  means double happiness for the upcoming new year ^^

Sorry that my calligraphy is so bad XD 
The other nails are painted with China Glaze Happy Go Lucky and topped with Nubar's Black Polkadot which is my absolute favorite layering polish ever! XD

I didn't get to bring my polish with me on the roadtrip but shall continue doing my nails when I move in properly when I get back to Melbourne! 

For some weird reason, my nails hate Melbourne and they always break when I get here...-.-...waiting for them to grow out now but short nails are still paint-a-ble so no biggie =D

Cheers everyone!
Happy New Year!

Hello from me from the Great Ocean Road!

Simple nail iphotography

Elo there!
I did this many a while ago but didn't have time to post it till now! XD

I layered Nubar 2010 and Nubar Black Polkadot on top of OPI Big Apple Red!
^^
To me it looks like super juicy watermelons slices!
To my friend it looks like fruit scrub from body shop! XD

I love this photo so much! XD
Of course I used Instagram and my Iphone kinda died on me so I'm so deprived now D8
Anywayz...along with the effects and my ring it came out really pretty! XD
Hence, the title of the post =P
I kinda regret not taking a macro shot of the glitter though ><

Oh well!
There's always next time! 
Cheers!

Nubar Black Polka Dot Review

Woo hoo!! 
BLACK GLITTER BABY!!! 
^^

So...usually I would paint the swatches on my natural nail but...
if you've been keeping up with my blog then you would know 
that I broke a nail a week back and then...
this happened 3 days ago ><

Sighhhhh it broke pretty deeply...and I've cut the other nails so they do not follow in this nails footsteps ><

I was actually not planning to paint the swatches till my nails grew back which would be who knows when!! THEN! I realized that I could paint them on my nail wheel!! Weeeeeee XD

HERE ARE THE SWATCHES!!! 

I used Essie Mint Candy Apple as the Base! =)
Nubar Black Polka Dot is as I said a black glitter polish! 
It is a combination of black small tiny round flakies and big hexagonal flakies! =) 
I absolutely LOVE this polish!! XD

Here's the next BEST part about it!!
It look even better matte!!! XD 
I used Essie Matte About You to mattify the glitter!
I just can't get over how pretty it is and 
it is also why I have them on my nails now!! 
I won't be taking my polish off for a while! 

Cheers!

Nail Polish Spree 04

Hey everyone!! 
I seriously have been procrastinating on the posts lately ><
Well...while I was off doing whatever I was doing...my next nail polish spree arrived!! ^^


From left: Nubar Black Polka Dot, Essie Red Nouveau, OPI Alpine Snow

You're all probably wondering why there are only 3 bottles
 when the package is so big aren't you! XD
There reason for that is that there was an OPI mini set in the package too but it's my friends and I've already given to her thus no photos either! =P

The polish I was most excited about in this spree is Nubar Black Polka Dot!! XD 
I've been seeing lots of swatches of black glitter and I JUUUUSSSSTTTT had to have it!! ^^
Shall be uploading the swatches soon!! Yayyyyy!!!

I have a lot of swatches done so shall be updating more...hopefully!! XD

Cheers!
