NAIL MAIL!

my very first Femme Fatale Nail Polish! :D

the boy knew that i had been eyeing these bad boys for weeks now. and when they had a reopening sale he surprised me with them. feel very spoilt and... hysterical about trying them!

This one is Gilded Rose. one of three of the Valentines Day collection. 2 dabbed coats swatched over OPI Barefoot In Barcelona. no fishing required for the glitters.. with the exception of the stars. even with one coat it was a glitter bomb.. but for the sake of being over the top with everything ( :P ) i decided to do two.. plus, this way the glitter shows much more

can't wait to share the remaining 5 that i have in the next couple of weeks (if there's anyone reading this at all ♥)

glitter me your heart?

my lame valentines day inspired nail art :P

i used OPI Kiss Me On My Tulips and SinfulColors Nail Junkie

Happy Australia Day

My futile attempt of being patriotic for Australia Day rocking the green and gold :)

I used BYS RollerCoaster. Butter London WestEndWonderland and China Glaze Golden Enchantment

Now off to BBQ and beer till the fireworks tonight. Hope everyone has a safe and epic long weekend!

this has to be one of my most favorite polishes ever. Butter London Fishwife.

but... being funemployed and all.. i was itching to put some kind of design over it..

for this manicure i used Butter London Fishwife for the base and BYS Orchid Ice and Black Satin for the leopard print

here kitty kitty

for the record... just because you put a pink bow on something that looks like a cat... doesn't make it Hello Kitty... xD

i truly don't know what i was thinking when i did this manicure.. i wanted to have a light color base because it felt a little more summery... but i don't know where to begin if i had to explain how i came up with this inspiration hahahahaha..

i used Ciate Strawberry Milkshake... (mind you was a complete nightmare to apply.. it was thick.. but it left lots of streak marks and in the picture there's about 3 coats of it) OPI Kiss Me On My Tulips for the bow. SinfulColors Snow Me White for the cat. BYS Black Satin for the eyes and whiskers and BYS Lucky Ducky for the nose.

needless to say this manicure didn't stay on for very long hahahaha. i didn't even bother trying my right hand. can only imagine what kind of a shit show that would have been :D

something asian...

these suckers were probably one of the hardest nailarts i've ever done. as simple as it looks i really don't know these nail artists do such perfect dots and all the same size mind you! i've heard of tricks as using a tooth pick or a tiny dotting tool... or the obvious to.. practice makes perfect.. yeah no.. my hand spasms were unforgiving once again...

for this manicure i used BYS Lucky Ducky and Baby Lets Cruise for the base colors. and BYS Black Satin and SinfulColors Snow Me White for the pandas.

if anyone has.. some kind of trick... or... way to make the dots look even and less tragic looking please don't hesitate to teach this noob... because i just can't seem to get the hang of it.

hope everyone had a great weekend!

strawberries!

this has to be one of my most favourite nailarts i've ever done.

i used OPI Red My Fortune cookie. BYS Roller Coaster and Lucky Ducky

this turned out much nicer than the watermelon ones i did... hahaha my hand spasms were a little more forgiving this time round :P
