Luck of the Irish

Hello ladies!

OPI Who the Shrek are you?, Jade is the New Black and Skinfood white all on my toes. Luck of the irish I say!




Warning! Toes ahead.

I just really like this colour combination. I applied it a bit haphazardly but I always made a mess of my toes :P Anyway, it all peels off in the shower.

So, don't forget to enter! I will use a random number picker thingie from the internet.

Good luck! :) Maybe you can try my lucky toes!

Leafy Konad

Hi ladies!

A forest green with white leaves? Classic! Forget the state of my hands and handiwork. I haven't konaded in so long. Was super shakey. Plus this plate was meant as a French tip one. So I tried layered 2 stamps to join up!

FAIL!

But now I know and I might try this again. It looks like a camouflage pattern. Speaking of which...

My brother is in the army. In Singapore, all males must go through National Service for 2 years. (Yes, that is the pattern of our Army uniform.) So, my dog, Floppy, had to as well. Being a boy and all.

Yes, SIR!

At ease, Cadet!

YES SIR! Thank you SIR!
*pant*

Also, the garden has been doing well. :) It's the rainy season so the flowers are blooming!

Cookie wanted a picture too :)

Yes, I'm such a poser. But my hair is now red. And I need a picture of that but not today. I'm having a bit of a cold and I look and feel gross.

Can you believe its ALMOST Christmas?

And I'm leaving Singapore for Canada in 15 days!
*squeal*

NOTD: Cheeky Ghosts!

Hi ladies!

I got out me brushes and decided to do an early Halloween manicure.

NEVER paint while drinking choya. Your hands go shaky, your art looks crap, but hell, you don't care. (^^)

Both taken with flash. The top thumb looks like a one toothed vampire, or according to one of my students, it does. Note the child like innocence of the drawings. Really channeling the 5 year old in me!

But I kinda like it cos it's so messy!

Now to do a better one! Offffffffff with their heads!!! MUAH HA HA HA HA HA HA HA

NOTD: Mac and Matt

Hi ladies!

So LA Alpine white (It's my all time fave white now. I need a backup bottle). It's white in 2 coats and you can make it shiny! And my lust item Mac's Blue India. I have had the bottle for ages but I finally did a manicure with it today.

Matt Alpine white: 2 coats. Mac Blue India: 2 coats. although 3 would have been better.

The sun is out! So i rushed out and took pics before my clean up. Opps. Anyway, I love the colour of the Mac Blue India. It's even better in real life. A dusky blue. But I wasn't too happy with application. It was a bit bubbly. And if you do a close up, you can see the bubbles and streaks. It's not my top coat. *sigh* But I love it so much.

My nails are Monets. Far from good, good from far. Geddit? Yeah, geddit? You don't? Oh well.

My workstation today was in the living room, much to my Mom's disgust. I have a day off cos it's a school holiday! Yeah for being a teacher!

Everyone else, have an awesome day! ^.^

Alice-inspired Nails!

 

NOTD: Konad Matte Black with White

Hi all! One coat LA Girl Matte black and I used the konad special sticky polish in white.It was plate m51 for the konad. ^^

And yes, the pinky was made with a different stamp on the same plate.

NOTD: Konad with LA Girl Matte White

I kept my OPI Merry midnight and changed the birthday bash to LA Girl Matte white. I used Konad Plate m40 on my fingers. The white stamp was the Konad white special polish. For the purple flowers on the Matte white, I used Kose in Sugar Plum.

I didnt realise how dry my fingers looked! *gross*

NOTD: OPI Birthday Bash and OPI Merry Midnight

Sadly... I broke a nail. It's on my right hand, index finger. So I rushed to my salon to get it fixed. First time ever, I have a gel nail. It looks pretty good now. It tore pretty close to the nail bed but they fixed it! *kisses*

So, this is how my nails look like now. Not bad huh?

NOTD: Green Bliss

Hi all! I have been super lazy posting new pictures up because, I wore my old nail colour (the cool french :)) to death. I finally changed it!

Isn't it pretty? I used one coat of white and 2 of the green.

Skinfood is one of my favorite nail polish brands. It is from Korea but it is highly pigmentated. The brush is a dream to use and it dries pretty fast. This is my nails after 2 days.

It's my closest dupe to the Chanel Jade. I am still sore about missing this colour and refusing to pay ebay prices. I didn't book it (my fault >,<) but when I went in 2 days after the launch, it was sold out!

Yet, I have seen NO ONE wearing it out.

However, this is close enough. The polishes are cheap too! About S$4. ^^

Gloomy nails!

This is my take on the gloomy bear nails.



I used Sally Hansen Hard As Nails in Sheer Lilac Gloss for the pink base. The white was some cheapie thing from Daiso called Pedicure Nail enamel. The red tips is a polish from Sephora called L10 Groseille (I think).

I just painted my half my nails in pink and the other half in white. Pink 3 coats, white 2 coats. Then I just dribbled the 'blood' on.

I like to think it looks like gloomy. What do you think?
