New Year?

Hey all!

So I haven't posted up my new year nails...well here they are!

I asked my bf what should I paint for new years and he said fireworks...

Urghhhh why why why fireworks! I seriously cannot handle fireworks because actual fireworks are so pretty so how are you going to get that onto a nail? I'm sure other nail artists have done it but it just doesn't work for me.

So this is what I ended up with on new years...

Disappointing...I know but there will definitely be a time when I will be happy painting fireworks!

Till then!
Cheers!

#Nailartsep 04 - Gold & Teal

Hey nail art lovers!

Sorry this is a few days late but I swear I did it on the right day! 

^^

So as I've said in my previous post, I am currently attempting @californails Nail Art September Challenge on Instagram!

So for the 4th the month, the theme is Gold & Teal.

Frankly speaking, I had no idea what colour Teal is...and I don't I will be able to differentiate Teal from the green colours ><

Anyway, this is what I ended up with!

With my personality, if you said pink & green only then I would only used those colours which gives me a hell of a headache when coming up with designs. 

Which includes other aspects in life with similar situations.

However, I have learnt that it is not necessary to only use these two colours, as long as the main point of the design is of the two colours. 

So, breaking out of my insecurities little by little I used black and white polishes as well as gold and teal in the mani. 

Although, some people do not consider black and white colours.

I hope those with the same problem as I are able to improve.

Gambatte!

That's it for this post! 

I have another mani for the 7th which was 2 days ago.

Sorry for the untimeliness but I seriously assure you that I painted them on the right day!

X'Mas '12 - Santa Claus is coming to town~

HoHoHo!!

Merry Christ...oops a little too early huh XP

Oh well!

As promised, here comes a Christmas mani! XD

Santa Claus is coming to town~~~tonight~~~ 

Santa nails is what I have on my nails now XD

I kinda made the belt a little too big thus only 2 button on his coat. LOL 

I think the gold sash and the initials on the buckle give it a nice touch no? 

Here's one mani! 

Keep an eye out on the others!

Cheers!

I got this design from a girl on instagram!

I had a lot of fun with this mani! 

Roses are just plain cool to paint on you nails!! XD

Oh! I'm really into yellow now! Totally love using my Chinaglaze Happy-Go-Lucky polish!

On a different note!

I did this mani when I was just too plain lazy to draw nail art =P 

Matte chrome silver french tips! ^^

IU You & I MV inspired mani

I've been putting this mani off till I got my gold chrome polish and it arrived a while ago! XD

I painted this a while ago TOO!! =P

It didn't come out the way I wanted too...probably cause I didn't experiment with the polish long enough...sighhhh...oh well!! 

^^

My favorite nail would be the pointing finger thus the solo photo on instagram! XD

I tried to write 'tick tock' on the ring finger but black didn't match and so....

basically it didn't work out =S

The other design is meant to be cogs from the clockwork!

I really love the video!! 

Especially the lyrics!!!

>/////<

Check it out!!! XD

Cheers!

Expect more!! 

^^

Chrome Clouds

Yo nail art peeps!

 After my recent nail polish spree I am really into chrome polish XD

Then there's this new craze with cloud manis...

So I decided to try it out! 

Sorry about the red in the photos...it's probably from the sun...

It was really REALLY bright and sunny when I took them =P

Anywayzz...the original tutorial came from Nailside. 

You can check the tute out ---> here.

I tried the tute and didn't really work out for me >< 

It's sooooo messy!! =S

Cheers!

Till the next mani!

Nail Polish Spree 05 + Swatches

Yawnnnnnn

Excuse me...super sleepy now...=.=...

Anywayzz...here's nail polish spree 05!! 

China Glaze Passion, OPI Fresh Frog of Bel Air

This time I ordered China Glaze Passion and OPI Fresh Frog of Bel Air!

I shall make this an uber long post since I haven't written a long one in a while ^^

Here we go! 

First off is China Glaze Passion! XD

Passion is a dusty gold chrome polish. I've been hunting for a gold chrome polish for a while now and this is the one I chose after reading countless reviews and seen so many swatches!

As all chrome polishes, this polish also streaks so remember to get it all on with minimal swipes of the brush...2 layers would be best for this polish cause as you can see from my ring finger in the close up photo...there's a bald spot in the middle ><"

This is China Glaze Passion Matte! ^^
I seriously LOVE matte chrome polish! Not sure if you can tell from the photo but there's less shine and it has this real gold feeling to it XD
I wish I had taken a more close up photo of it ><


Enough with the chrome polish!
Let's get on to the glitter!
Presenting...OPI Fresh Frog of Bel Air!! XD

Have I mentioned that I'm quite into glitter now? Well I AM!! XD
OPI Fresh Frog of Bel Air is from the Muppets collection! ^^
I've never had a green glitter polish and this caught my eye!
This polish is a combi of small tiny green glitter bits and hexagonal silver flakies!
I actually went backwards and did the review before the nail polish spree post ><
It was more to a glitter post than a review though..=P
Check it out ---> OPI Fresh Frog of Bel Air Review

Well...that's it for this post!!
I've got a couple of manis done already and I can't wait to show them to you guys! ^^
Look forward to them!
Cheers!
