"Ready for the wedding"

Hello readers!

I am guessing all students are back to school by now. It has been only 2 weeks that I am back to school but I am already overwhelmed by the readings and assignments.. So today's manicure is a simple one that does not require too much time to accomplish but the result can still be very nice.
.

As the name suggests, "Ready for the wedding" is a perfect design for brides or simply when you attend a wedding party. The base colour is a pink shimmer from PA nail polish and the tip is a ribbon sticker I bought at Pacific Mall, in Toronto. These ribbon stickers which I need to cut myself require some special attention.

1) the length of sticker you cut must be a little shorter then the width of your nail tip

2) when you put the ribbon sticker, do not stick exactly on the corner of the nails; leave a tiny space

3) before you put the top coat, encure that the sticker really stickes on the nail; it should look "flat"

If you follow all my tips, you should not see the sticker starting to get off.

Enjoy!

MAC Jade Dragon

Hi guys!!

Hope everybody had a good holiday break!

I just wanted to make a quick update before going out for lunch with Miss K :) It's been a while, I've missed blogging about my nails. They do not look their best right now, (I blame work) but it'll have to do for now.

My cousin gave me 4 MAC polishes for Christmas, including this one, Jade Dragon. I've already tried Imperial Power, but didn't have time snap a picture before it got all chipped. Worry not, I'll probably wear it again in a few days ;)

Getting to the goodies...

This is Jade Dragon, a beautiful green shimmer. It's a tad dark, but visibly green. The shimmer is subtle, but is oh-so nice!! I was also surprised with application. I've had some difficult MAC polishes before, but this one was great. 2 coats.



Edited to add: I will probably update this post with better pictures next time!

Cute little gift =)

Hello!

I just wanted to show you all a gift I received this Christmas from a very nice friend! She went to Disney World and was sweet enough to think of me heheheh a lovely necklace with the letter K =)

To match the cute necklace, I wore "Minnie on hand" again and used China Glaze Sexy Lady this time and added a silver glitter top coat. (The picture focuses on the necklace and not so much on the nails because the day I took the picture, the manicure was not as perfect anymore..) I still hope you like it!

"Princess nails"

Hello readers!

Happy new year! May 2011 bring everyone success and happiness! I hope you all =)
.

Sorry for the lack of posts these past weeks.. I took a break from school, from everything.. even my nails a little.. I kept my "Merry Christmas!" design for a long time and got a lot of compliments! heheheh

Today, I have something different for all of you! I don't remember since when, I started to like some 3D on my nails. I looked at what I have that is "3D" and found some jewelries like rhinestones and pearls that I got from Toronto and Hong Kong. The nail polish I wore is a Sally Hansen one, with some glitter. I put 2 coats on half (mainly on tip) of my nails and topped off with those rhinestones and pearls.

So this is how I got to this design that I love!! I hope you like this style too!

Winter collection: "Merry Christmas!"

Hello everyone!

School is finally done for me!! Today, I spent some great time with a friend, right after my last exam, to do what? ................... NAILS of course =) The above pictures are my newest designs on my friend's hands.

My winter collection is getting a little bigger with this konadicure which I decided to name "Merry Christmas!" Red colour, bells, snowman, snowflakes are all elements related to Christmas. Therefore, I had to use many different images from my plates. I used OPI Red My Fortune Cookie, plates m12 (it's a Christmas plate!), m 59 and m45 to do this manucure. And of course I did not forget to top every nail off with a silver glitter top coat! I just want to say that I find the designs on the thumbs look like Christmas cards..heheheh what do you think?
.

It took a little longer than expected to accomplish this work but I believe it was worth it because I just love it! I hope you all like it as much as my friend and I do!

Good luck everyone for the giveaway!
