Butter London Jasper Swatch

Elo Elo!

A friend just asked my why I do not update my blog regularly...

My answer: Lazy ahhhhh

Which is so true! 

So this post is for you! 

=P

First I have to tell you guys a story.

Once upon a time on a nice sunny day. I had Sunday brunch with my girl friends at this cozy french cafe called Roule Galette. This cafe sold yummy crepes and I like them. When we reached the cafe, there were no tables open. As we waited outside the cafe for a table, across the road was a cute little boutique called 'Lady Petrova'. This shop sold cute dress, shoes, and accessories. One of my friends was instantly entranced by it and suddenly found herself walking into it with me following her. As I went deeper into the boutique, I found a small stand with nail polish on it and the closer I got to it, the more excited I got! 

IT WAS A RACK OF BUTTER LONDON POLISHES!!

I have seen so many Butter London nail polish swatches and I they all looked so pretty. When I finally got one I was really excited. Trying not to get a polish similar to the others I already own. I got a bottle of Butter London Jasper.

Jasper is a light pastel yellow and it is absolutely beautiful.

I had to paint 3 layers to get an even and opaque shade though. 

I actually saw a similar colour from Sinful Colours and I plan to get it for comparison but not this month.

Why not this month?

Stay tuned!

Cheers!

Halloween 2012

Elo everyone! XD 

So I'm currently in Sydney for a week for a short holiday before flying back to Malaysia for the summer! XD And before the holiday I had to stop painting me nails cause I ran out of Mavala nail polish remover!! D8 I can see the shock in your eyes! I tried getting a temporary substitute a.k.a Cutex and it was the WORST decision of my LIFE!! I felt like I lost a day of my life each time I used it >< 

In the end, couldn't paint my nails for 3 weeks! D8 The shock!! and it's been doing bad things to my nails and cuticles!! BAD THINGS I TELL YOU!! Hell why am I telling you when I can show you?!

Horrible isn't it >< Nail broke and cuticles are dry like mad TT

Since I won't be able to paint the nail design I planned for Halloween in time for it so I thought I might as well post up some of the mini Halloween designs that I've already done XD If you want to get instant updates on nail designs and the deteriorating condition of my nails then follow my instagram at @chronosz but I have to warn you that there's more than nails in my instagram XD

 Without further a do!!!

Presenting!!!!

Hello Kitty Comeback!

Waaaaaaaa!!

MIA-ed like mad!!! ><"

So here's my big nail art comeback!!!! XD

HELLO KITTY!!!

Weeee Hello Kitty!! My nails finally grew enough to do the french mani! ^^

The Hello Kitty mani has been on my 'To-do list' for quite some time now so I'm quite happy that I finally got to do it XD

Oh! I also got to use the 3D ribbons that I bought specifically for this mani! =P

Super proud of this!! 

Here's a close up on the kitty on my thumb nail! XD

I actually wanted to use this hello kitty on my right hand but alas the this was wayyyy too big for my tiny nails >< so instead I used it on my iphone cover! It matches pretty well don't you think! ^^

I have a couple more mani's that I haven't posted up and...

Oh! My nail polish spree finally arrived so I can finally do TWO mani's that I've been wanting to do for some time now! XD 

SO EXCITED!!

Expect more swatches as well!! 

Cheers!

MIA gal!

Teenage Dream Overload!!

Elo elo!! XD

So my friend Alison came over that day and I painted her nails!!! XD 

I let her choose the colours and she chose 

OPI Bubble Bath and Teenage Dream!! XD

I took this with Instagram!! XD 

Sooooo addicted to it and a lot of other photo apps on my Iphone! =P

A simple mani goes a long way!! 

^^

Look at the happy girl with her nails done!! XD

After I did her nails, I really wanted to use teenage dream too and 

THIS HAPPENED!! XD

I forgot to take photo with my camera before I removed it ><

I took this with my Iphone too LOL

Half pastel pink and half teenage dream! ^^

There's this girl that take awesome photos on instagram 

and I was trying to imitate her photo!

Didn't really turn out that nice tho ><

Oh well!!

So I really went all out on the teenage dream!! XD

See you at the next mani!

Cheers!

Taped Retro Twist

Hey guys!! XD

In my last post I told you guys that I was gonna post up my current mani rite!!

So here they are!!!! XD

Remember the Topshop polishes I got from my Singapore trip in January?

I used those 3 polishes for this mani!! ^^

I've seen this mani quite a few times online so I thought I would try it! 

Instead of using cellotape I used the blue stripping tape that I got a while back!

It works so much better than the cellotape XD 

After I added the rhinestones I thought, "Hmmm this so reminds me of a jesters hat! XD"

Bwahahahhaha 

Yeah! Yeah! That jester!! XD

The rhinestones became the bells for the hat =P

I'm quite happy with this mani! ^^

I learnt a new way to do tape manis and I got to use polishes I rarely use too! 

That's all for now!
Look forward to 'The Simple Little Things 03' soon!! 

Cheers!

Mini Spree

Hey Nail Art Lovers!!

I know I have yet to review and post up the polishes 
from my other nail polish sprees but I just can't help it!! >< 

So I found this small nail art booth in Pavilion the other day 
and I just couldn't stay away from the nail art goodness XD

Chain, rhinestones, blue nail art strip tape, 2 nail wheels

I finally found some nail wheels and I'm so excited!! I also got a chain to use during dinner occasions since there are rhinestones stuck to it...and of course I got some rhinestones too!! XD The main thing in this spree is the blue nail strip tape! I've been wanting to get a silver tape for quite a while now but when I bought this one the blue and silver tape were really similar and didn't know that I bought the wrong colour till I used it ><


I did a quick mani just to use it! 

Forgive the sloppiness since I did them when I was half asleep ><
I couldn't really get the tape to stick so the ends always stuck out =S
I did some "aztec" writing on the white parts with a silver dotting pen but you can't really c them in the photo cause of the sunlight =S


There'll be more opportunities to do aztec manis to don't fret! 
That's all for today!
Cheers!

To Nude: ILY

From: Black

HeHe^^

I was trying to be creative with the title and intro....you didn't get it did you! =P

Translation = I really think nude colours and black polish should just get married cause they compliment each other so well!! XD

So...I decided to try out a tape mani as well as needle dragging with these 2 colours! =)

It looks really messy eh! >< but that's how I started off =S

I used the giant rhinestones my bro gave me but I don't think they are suited for nails >< I had to do some patch work after I took the tape off since I had to paint a couple of layers of the nude polish to make it opaque but it came pretty well don't you think so! ^^ I wished I had made the lines evener tho =P

So this is my right hand and as you can see I decided to try needle dragging out! I think the only kinda successful one that came out is the pointer finger... Probably because I used 2 different brands of black polish and I used an orange stick instead of a needle to do it! XP

I'm quite happy with the final results!! 

I tend to paint both my hands nowadays! ^^

Feeling super proud of myself at the moment! =P

That's it for this post and I'll have good news to share with you guys soon!! 

Cheers!

GLEE Inspired

Hey GLEE lovers!!
So...I recently watched GLEE!! 

It was the BEST episode so far!!

It was all about not giving in to bullying and peer pressure and suicide is never the answer to ones problem! The song!! Super inspirational!! 

So this mani is inspired by their regional outfits! =)

THE RESULT!!

Red, Gold, Black and Silver...

GREAT COMBO!!

^^

I am proud to say that I am a really big 

GLEEK!!

GLEE to me is a very inspirational show that combines the happenings of high school, society and music! =) I have cried, laughed and shown so many different kinds of expressions while watching GLEE and I can say that I DO relate to the characters in GLEE! =)

Now...I can say that...

I HAVE CHANGED!

in a very good way! 

=)

Sorry to bomb you guys with this emotional stuff but I just had to share it since it is sort of a turning point in my life and I'm glad that it finally came! =)

Here's a song to commemorate this joyous mani!

Glad You Came by The Warblers!!

Cheers!

Purple Madness

HARLOOOOOO

So it's 2.40AM in KL so I'm kinda hyper a little...

Anywayzzz...I painted my friend Melanie's nails for her earlier and it was a super purple mani since she couldn't decide on a design and colour!! XD

This is the result of that! 

I'm actually quite satisfied with it! It was based from a design I did before! XD

It's supposed to be leopard and zebra print just in case you didn't know...=P

I was also trying out the silver art pen I bought from faceshop and I LOVE IT!!

I shall do a review on it in another post oh! and it gave me a reason to use my purple rhinestones too! The rhinestones on her fourth nail is kinda senget crooked since I was painting her nails from an awkward direction =P and I was using seche vite to stick them on so they stuck on really fast so I couldn't really adjust them...hmmph!

Ya know what...I was transferring the pics of the polish swatches and designs I did while my photoshop was on the fritz from my camera to my lappie and... THERE'S A LOT!! ><

Gonna be posting a lot so....YEAH!! ^^

Nail Biters Corner #03 is coming soon too so sit tight!! 

Cheers!

Wedding not wedding inspired

HiHi^^

Sorry for the long non-posts session but my photoshop was on the fritz ><

I couldn't watermark my photos =( 

It's fixed now! XD So back to blogging!!

I guess you're probably waiting for a wedding inspired nail design because of the title but did you read it carefully? It says NOT wedding inspired =P

OK! Enough with the shenanigans!!

ON TO THE PICS!!

So...what I meant by 'wedding not wedding inspired' was...

 THIS!!

This was the door gift at my cousin's wedding =)

I put off doing this design for a month+ LOL 

I mixed a shimmer and glitter polish get that colour 

but I think it would have been nicer with gold khrome polish =S 

now you know why I want China Glaze 2030

I really love rhinestones right now!! ><

Anyone know where to buy or order studs from in Malaysia??

That's it for this post!!

Since my photoshop is up and running again the swatches

 from Nail Polish Spree 03 will be up soon!! ^^

Cheers!
