It’s Chinese New Year (CNY) and the Floral Nails that I did last week were starting to chip so, to keep in the CNY mood, I did a variation of plum/cherry blossoms on my nails using gold and white. Also, I went with a slight nude colour just to make it look less gaudy. I...
Nails of the week – Floral
Went shopping last night because I was itching to do so and I bought too many things! LOL. Anyway, 3 new buys are the above nail polishes from this new Korean cosmetics brand Innisfree, located at the B2 of Ngee Ann City. They market themselves as a eco-friendly brand that tries to make every cosmetic...
Nails for the week – 12 Aug (Arizona bottle-ish?)
I’m getting lazier with my nail designs. I need inspiration!! Anyway, I quite like this combi as it reminds me of the Arizona tea bottle as well as the sakura. It’s bling enough without making me seem like some sort of ‘ah lian’. I spent a little more effort in painting the base colour so...
Nails of the week – 4 Aug (Hearts Ablaze)
I don’t know why the hearts turned out looking orange in the photo above but they’re really red in real life. Decided to do something really HOT red because I seldom do so. What do you think? This nail art is very easy to mimic and all I can say is that remember to put...
Nails of the week – 22 Jul 2013, Graffiti Sparkles
Since I have an event this weekend, I decided to go with something that’s simple and will not cause the men to stare at my nails incredulously. LOL. Strangely enough, the dark blue (China Glaze) caused more reactions from my female colleagues. Hmm…anyway, I bought the sparkle glitter on sale and I named this Graffiti...
Nails for the week – 2 July 2013, Side French with Stars and Stripes
Tired but needed to remove my previous nail polish and art because the ‘feathers’ were feathering. Haha…ok, I know, lame. So, I decided to do something simple and a twist on the classic French. It’s a side French with a gold stripe accentuating it and then I stuck on gold stars on each nail too! ...
Nails for the week – 22 Jun 2013 (Nude Leopard Prints & Bling Feathers)
I have no idea why but I just couldn’t take a nice photo of my nails yesterday. SO strange. Anyway, I wanted something a bit funky but yet neutral…if you get my flow. So…I came up with the above! The leopard print is quite simple and I have explained how to do it previously. The...
Nails for the week – 10 June 2013 (Gothic Lace Hearts)
Saw a similar design in NailUp magazine so I decided to replicate it. All I can say is that…this design only looks good on my left hand since I’m right handed. 😛 You’ll need: base coat french or pastel pink nail polish pink glitter (preferably a darker shade of pink) polish black polish black nail...
Sweetheart Nails for the week – 25 May 2013
Although I really liked the bling effect of last week’s Bling It On Feathers, it was snagging on my clothes, hair and cotton pad!! This really irritated me so for this week, I decided to do something simple. I just love this lilac Canmake nail polish so I decided to use it as my base. ...
Nails for the week – 20 May 2013 (Bling it on Feathers with lilac)
It has been some time since I’ve last painted my nails and and it’s all because of all the chipping and peeling thanks to me not really paying attention to them. I couldn’t take it anymore and went ahead with this design! I love the Bling It On Feathers by Nails Inc and I bought...
