Miss Ashleigh Thermal Polish Kryptonite Swatch

I've got a good one for you guys! 



Yup! This awesome thermal polish chocked full of glitter!
Well! I got another one from her recently!

Kryptonite!
From the name, one can already tell that the polish is green in colour.
Unless you haven't heard of Superman
Like all Miss Ashleigh polishes, you get a beautiful opaque shade with 2 layers. 
It doesn't chip as fast as other nail polish and it's healthier than other store bought polishes. 
Enough talk! Here comes the photos!






Kryptonite is a green based polish with a slight shimmer. It is dark green when cold and bright green when hot. As usual, my body temperature is so hot that I usually get a nice french looking mani as can be seen on the bottom left of the collage above. French mani in bottle! Cool rite! XD 

I was also playing around with studs since I haven't used them much and this is what came out of it!



Seriously amazing how I can have so many different types of manis with one polish!
I absolutely love it! I could stare at my nails all day and I did!

Check out her polishes at

Cheers for now!

#Nailartsep 13 - Glitter

Another day, another mani.
So today's theme is glitter!
I'm not really a big fan of glitter especially since removing it is such a hassle.
I don't really like this mani...I was going for a simple look but I really wanted to play with the studs I just bought thus it came out like this.


Yeah...
I really like the stud gradient but as usual, nothing can stick on my nail.
I might consider using nail glue but I don't like what it does to the nail.
I've been using top coat to stick fimos, studs and rhinestones on.
The glitter is OPI Teenage Dream!
I haven't used this polish in so long...I remember the first time I ordered a set of OPI minis and it was the Katy Perry series!

I really want the Mariah Carey liquid sand series as well as the OPI neon generation set! 
><
Can't wait to get them!!

That's it for this mani!
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!
