Nails: Flower Nailart using OPI and Silkygirl

OPI Just Groovy with OPI Blue Moon Lagoon & Flower prints on top

Close Up (Look at the beautiful shimmer from Blue Moon Lagoon)

OPI Blue Moon Lagoon in bottle

Yes I know I am fickle but I can't help it. I found ANOTHER love. LOL. I got this old OPI called Just Groovy from some time back and I used to adore this colour. I still likes it alot but I sorta got bored of it because it's a cream finish. But well OPI Blue Moon Lagoon entered the picture and BAM was I hook! Blue Moon Lagoon is pretty sheer when it comes to colour intensity but it's such an inteesting colour!!! It has this silvery blue tint and very very fine gold shimmers! When I applied this on top of Just Groovy, it didn't take away the original colour of the Just Grovvy but instead made it more interesting. Can you imagine how excited I was when I discovered that?! Hahaha!

I truly HIGHLY recommend OPI Blue Moon Lagoon polishes to everyone! Honestly, you will not regret getting it. It's very pretty on its own and it can be used as a top coat to add shimmers to your other creme polishes. It's pretty hard to find but you ladies can buy it from http://nailsloveopi.com/ like I did. ^^ For blue nail polish lovers, do check out Just Groovy too ^^ it's from the Psychedelic Summer Collection. :P It should be available on http://nailsloveopi.com/ too.

Anyway, I wanted to take some swatches to show you ladies what I meant but I love my current nail designs too much to take i off and swatch so I will give you ladies the detailed swatches later using fake nails. ^^

Here's what I did on my nails in order:

• Orly Ridgefiller Base Coat
• OPI Just Groovy Nail Polish
• OPI Blue Moon Lagoon Polish
• Dab a couple of drops of Silkygirl while nail polish on a piece of paper
• Using an fine eyeliner brush, swirl brush in while nail polish for a couple of seconds
• Dab 5 dots of nail polish onto nails forming the 5 petals of a flower (refer to no. 1 on diagram below)
• Using a toothpick, scrap off some nail polish from the centre of the dots outwards as demonstrated by the lines in no. 2 on the diagram below.
• Using the other end of the tooth pick swirl it in any green/yelloy polish (I used OPI Sit Under the Apple Tree) and apply a single dot in the centre of the 5 dots.
• Apply Seche Vite Fast Drying Top Coat (*Grin* we are done!)

Nails: China Glaze For Audrey (Tiffany Inspired Colour) <3

I am in love! IN LOVE! Lol.

Look at how pretty For Audrey is!! It's really very very close to the tiffany colour isn't it? I love it. I actually only need ONE coat to get the colour very opaque. It's great stuff! I really highly recommend everyone out there to get at least one bottle of this if not a backup at least as China Glaze has the habit of discontinuing nail colours!

You ladies can order this from a lovely lady on her website http://nailsloveopi.com/ Do support her! I have tried out her service and it's great. A very honest and sincere seller so you don't have to worry about the authencity of the goods. :)

Nails: Hot Pink Nails with Zebra Print Tips

Without Top Coat


With Top Coat



I was browsing through Youtube and I came across this makeup guru Julieg713. She's a nail genius honestly. This was a replica of her idea so credits belong to her. I basically just recreate it. It's my first time I did everything free hand so I know it's pretty messy but I had a good practise~ :)
I used OPI That's Hot! Pink with Revlon new shade Black Lingerie and Silky Girl every Glossy White nail polish to achieve this look. Do search for Julieg713 on youtube to check out her tutorial, it's superb but here's the basic steps.

1. Put on base coat. (I use Orly Ridgefiller Primer Basecoat)
2. Put on hot pink nail polish (Or any color you desire)
3. Wait for pink lacquer to dry alittle (approx 5 min)
4. Paint on black nail polish along the tips like French Manicure (Make the black tip broad :))
5. Wait for black polish to dry (approx 3-5 min)
6. Using a striper brush or eyeliner brush randomly paint on the white stripes on the black polish to make the tip resemble zebra prints :)
7. Wait for the lacquer to dry then apply top coat. :)

Nails: OPI Kreme de la Kremlin

OPI Kreme de la Kremlin on Nails


Very pretty neutral colour that can be worn every day. It's a brownish-mauvish red? LOL. It's very muted I must say and it came with the famous OPI prowide brush which makes it very easy on application.

The Prowide brush is really very dense so it picks up the enamel very very well. But I don't really love it but that's because I have a problem. LOL. I have very narrow nails so the prowide brush usually end up brushing against the flesh at the sides of my nails. :( I had a had tie trying to clean 'em up. But being OPI, it's great stuff. It dries up very evenly. Colour is very pigmented and I got really opaque nails with just one coat. It's really hard to go wrong with OPI.

Anyway, enough of my rambling. Ladies, please do check out this awesome ebay seller store http://stores.ebay.com.sg/All-NailsLoveOPI-Beauty-Shoppe I got a couple of China Glaze and OPI nail polishes from her and I tell you her service is great. She's very reliable and she has such a wide variety to choose from!~ I am not related to her so I am recommending her store because I am genuinely happy with her service so go check her store out. ^^ I will post up some pictures of my nail polish haul soon :)

Nails: MAC Peppermint Patti from Sugarsweet Collection

MAC Peppermint Patti on Nails

MAC Peppermint Patti as base and China Glaze Tinsel as tip

I LOVE PEEPERMINT PATTI!~

The sugarsweet collection is launched at DFS already and I can't help but get this colour!~ It's absolutely gorgeous!~ I used 2 coats. It doesn't go on as smoothly as the nail lacquer from the Hello Kitty Collection during the 1st coat but the 2nd coat managed to even eveything out. My nail colour looked really opaque and even by them. LOVE~

Nail: My First Nail Design~

My First Nail Art Design


Close up Picture

My first nail design!~ Lol. It's nothing fantastic of course but I am happy I tried. I used MAC on the Prowl to draw diagonal stripe across OPI Heart Throb. Then I pasted some nail art stickers which I bought years ago over the diagonal stripe!~ :P

Nails: MAC on the Prowl with Sephora Curacoa as tip

MAC On the Prowl as base & Sephora Curacoa as tip

I haven't been blogging for quite a while as I was caught up with plenty of work but I am finally back! LOL. I finally tried the Sephora Curacoa after so long.. well.. it isn't very appropriate for me to wear this "loud" colour on a weekday so I decided to use it as a tip colour ^^ and it turned out fabulous!

Anyway, my friend was asking me how do I do my tips because she said she just can't make her hands stop shaking enough to do a proper line and I told her so do I! My hands aren't that steady!! Here's how I cheat. All I have to do is cover the base of my fingernails with strips of adhesive tape, leaving only the tip uncovered then go over with a coat or two of nail polish. Haha! Tata I get a set of pretty nice french nails!

Here's a slight tip though. Before pasting the strip of adhesive tape over your fingernails, please remember to "decrease its adhesive power". Just repeatedly paste the strip on the back of your hand and tear it off for a few times.

Before I go off, I must make a lover declaration to the world! I love MAC nail polish!!! LOL! I really love them to bits! I know many ladies out there don't like their formulas and very much prefer OPI but I just simply adore them! No matter how badly I apply these MAC babies they just dry off to this really nice and smooth finish. Of course, I am not saying that OPI aren't great. They are but I just love MAC polishes. :X If they were cheaper, I swear I will get them all! :X

Swatches: MAC Something about Pink

It's gorgeous isn't it? I love this! Very pigmented and vibrant! I used 2 coats because I want the colour to pop. ^^ This nail colour actually dries up a little glossy, it didn't dry up fully matte and this surprise me. *Love* This pink has some blue undertone to it and this makes it very special. I am loving it so far. :P
