#120: SKIN FOOD Pedicure Sparkle #09 + Nail Art

Ok, this Hello Kitty wasn't my idea. Someone posted a tutorial in youtube (cutepolish) and I couldn't resist to attempt this on my own. Hello Kitty on my thumb was a little not-so-perfect but who cares... I really had fun doing this~ Fun mani for a blue Monday. =)

Nail Color:
Skin Food Pedicure Sparkle #09

Decorated/Painted with:
Konad White Nail Art Pen (for Hello Kitty's face and the random dots on the rest of my fingers)
China Glaze Happy for Lucky (for Hello Kitty's nose)
OPI Lincoln Park After Dark (for Hello Kitty's face outline and eyes)
Konad Special Polish in Red (for Hello Kitty's ribbon)

#117: ESSENCE In The Jungle & ESSENCE Iced Mint Frappe + Nail Art

Dark green paired with a pastel mint green filled with loads of polka dots. Simplicity always turn out pleasing to the eyes. Essence In the Jungle looks very very close to OPI Jade Is The New Black. If you love greens, you'll need to have both. Otherwise, you'll only need to have either one of these. I have both, so maybe I'll do a comparison in my coming post. And as for the pastel mint green, I couldn't compare as I do not own many pastel polish.

#116: ORLY Gogo + Nail Art

Orly Gogo is a soft white with subtle shimmer and silver glitter. It was really streaky to apply though and I needed 3 coats for opacity. It looks a little plain on it's own so I added 2 stripes with a silver nail art pen and then 1 stripe of pink in between them to make it pop.

Simple and easy birthday manicure~ I've grown a year wiser today and the hubby is taking me out for German Cuisine today. Excited tucking into pork knuckles, pork ribs & spaetzli~ Happy birthday to all Librans. =)

#115: SASATINNIE FCGL002 + Nail Art

A gorgeous dark purple polish with copper flakies and blue + silverish micro glitters. Sasatinnie FCGL002 was rumoured to be a cheaper dupe to Orly Fowl Play and OPI Merry Midnight, the latter was said to be HTF polish now. I don't know how true because I don't have the other two to compare, so you'll have to google yourself for that. I'm sure there are plenty available.

This unnamed polish (only identified with code FCGL002) was bought at a local Sasa store for only RM8.90. Surprisingly this gem was dumped in a large bin and I didn't realise it was there until I dug into it. Shown here was 3 thick coats of FCGL002 alone and not layered. Pretty isn't it?

*edited* Fickleminded~ I'm contemplating whether or not to get Orly Fowl Play which was released recently in their Birds Of a Feather Collection just so I could do a comparison. But.... but.... there are already so many swatches available on the blogosphere. >.< And so it killed my lemming~ On the good side, I can save for Color Club Beyond The Mistletoe.

Self restriction: I'm on no buy at the moment.

#109: CHINA GLAZE GR8 + Nail Art

China Glaze GR8 is a very stunning gold holo. The outline of the stickers looks visible in bright sunlight but not so much indoors. But I guess I should just omit the nail art next time I paint this amazing polish on. They definitely deserve a post on its own.

#94: PRORANCE Black S12 & PRORANCE Magic Green + Nail Art

As mentioned in my earlier post this is how the Prorance Magic Green polish looks like after layering it with Prorance black base. The polish was clear in the bottle but turns emerald once layered. Made a half moon and decorated it with 3D nail stickers from Nature Republic.

#90: RIMMEL Pink Punch + KONAD M79, M56 & Nail Art

Okay I know I'm a little obsessed but I really adore this barbie pink. Which explains why I'm revisiting it again but it's for my mani today. So to amp up the look I added lace stickers, rhinestone, hello kitty sticker plus some konad-ing and it turns out like so. A little random cause there's no prior planning. It's my first time using water nail decal so please excuse the visible sticker as I wasn't aware it'll show up so clearly in pictures.

#89: COLOR CLUB I Always Get My Man-darin + Star Fruit Fimo & Nail Art

Fruity nails for today. The mandarin and star fruit combination actually gives me the urge to grab a bottle of fruit juice. =) Pardon the slight nick on my middle finger - the results of hasty clean ups.

#86: PRORANCE Black S12 + BUNDLE MONSTER BM-224 & Nail Art

This Prorance polish is from my little haul from Sasa today. There are micro glitters in it which is super pretty and it's a one coater. Prorance Black S12 is suppose to be the base for layering with the other magic polishes from the Prorance range. I'm not showing the layering in today's post, but I will soon. =)

So I started off with no idea what I was going to do. I had a really long look at my nail art supplies and finally decided to add the 3D heart-shaped nail stickers but it still look kind of plain which explains why I added the dots. The accent nail was stamped with a Chinese character "愛" which literally means love and definitely matches the heart-shaped stickers on the other nails. I don't know but the end results seems a little goth to me. What do you think?

#77: ESSENCE Very Berry + Heart Shaped Fimo

No konad this time but I decorated my nails with heart shaped fimo that I bought from a local nail supplies store. I really have to shout out that this mani is super cute! Even my husband says it's different from what I usually do and he likes it. Happy happy... =)

#65: ESSENCE Lime Up! & OPI Jade Is The New Black + Nail Art

Sorry you had to see Essence polishes coming up in the next few posts as I'm really excited about trying this brand. =) Tried to french it with a darker green and it looks quite dull. So I added dots along the french to come up with this really simple mani.
