Thanks for #Sharethelove & #Sharefest!

I just wanted to take some time off and thank everyone who had participated in the #sharethelove & #sharefest on Facebook to promote nail Facebook pages and blog.

Due to the heart warming actions of this movement, I have gained from having only 1 page like (by my friend, PiggieLuv) on Facebook to 330+ page likes. Also, on my blog, I have also increase slightly on my GFC followers.

I had never intended to promote and set up my page properly till my exam ended, however now, it is considered up however there are still rooms for improvements.

I would like to thank each of you who have liked or followed me. Also, I would like to thank the various nail pages who have shared my page. Last but not least, I would like to thank the initiators of this #sharethelove & #sharefest movement along with everyone who have participated in sharing and liking the pages.

Love,
C.

Tutorial: Nail Stamping

Today, I will be showing you my first ever Pictorial! I will you telling you on the steps to go about doing it, along with some tips and where to buy the products that would make your stamping journey easier! 

I've heard from some people that they are often discouraged from stamping due to various reasons such as the image plate doesn't come out well or the stamped image isn't at an ideal spot. However, I'm here to tell you that all those worries, will be gone with more practice. 

Stamping is extremely fun to do, it allows you almost instantly beautify your plain manicure into one that allows others to go "WOW!". I have done stamping a few times now, and have gotten the hack of how stamping is.

However it does takes patience in order to master this well. So never give up! Just keep trying until you are able to successfully stamp your images well! 

For Instagram friendly, I have a condensed photo, just for you!

Model Own's Aqua Violet Beetle Juice

Finally did up my stash list! After so long, I have finally put them up on the blog. Need to do up my wish list soon too! As for now, lets talk about polishes

Well today, I am going to blog about Model Own's Aqua Violet Beetle Juice I had on me a few days back. 

To start things off, I really like the duo chrome in this polish. I am a blue, purple, pink polish lover. Apart from that, I also love glitter! It can be a pain in the ass to remove, but glitter just brightens up my life. I do complain when it's removal time, but when it's application it's just such a joy to paint them on! 

Getting back, this polish application was really easy to apply. The brush was skinny. Brushes really makes a whole lot of difference to painting my nails especially since my nails are really small. 


I have 3 coats of Models Own 'Aqua Violet Beetle Juice' along with 1 coat of Glisten and Glow's 'HK Girl Topcoat'

Love Me More Swatch

Hi! 

Do you all remember of how a meimeisignatures is selling Love Me More polish to raise funds for her niece's liver transplant surgery? Check that post out here! I have finally swatch them on! :D

As mentioned earlier, Love Me More is a pretty carnation pink with blue and pink micro shimmer! I really loved the pink! I thought it would come out as a hot pink color, turned out I was wrong. It is a bright pink, but it isn't as much as a hot pink like Sinful Colors Dare Devil (1104), as seen as below!

Milky sweet pink glitter gradient

Hi!

Today, I have a really simple glitter gradient mani!

Base coat: OPI, Nail Envy Original

Color: China Glaze, Fairy Dust
Color: Sweet Heart Polish, Attack of the Crunchy Leaves (This is the only chunky glitter I have now, the rest are too small to be known as chunky polishes)
Too Coat: Rica, Glossy Glam

My nails are really short now :( Decided it was time to file them all down! Wonder how long it will take to grow back to the previous length?

My end results:

Sweet Heart Polish: Wheat Penny, Attack of the Crunchy Leave &ScarabShells [Giveaway Nailmail]

Hey there!

A month back, I told you that I manage to win some Sweet Heart Polish from Colorsutraa's 1500 likes! Check that post out here! Well, after a month, I have finally received my prize! There was a bit of hiccups before the package could finally arrive at my house but I am glad that the package finally did! I have been waiting for this package forever! This is considered my first ever Sweet Heart Polish I have ever owned. Technically, this should also be my first ever indie polish I had (now its Rica's Glossy Glam due) if it wasn't the hiccups that happened! Well, it the first indie polish that is colored! Seems like Sweet Heart Polish is still a first, yeah? :)

Well, Cassandra was really sweet to include not only my prize of Wheat Penny & Attack Of The Crunchy Leaves, she also threw into a mini Scarab Shells as part of her latest collection, "Death Is Only The Beginning" along with some sweets! (I never knew there were Plants Vs Zombies sweets! Can't wait to try it!)
