Eau So Fresh Daisy Perfume and Manicure ^_^

Recently I just bought Marc Jacob's Daisy Eau So Fresh perfume..it's so girly and fun.. and then I was inspired by the whimsical bottle and box it came in.

So I decided to do a daisy manicure inspired by this box.

I used my dotting tools to create the daises...

I used OPI's In the Spot-light as the base color ans Sally Hansen's Mellow Yellow and White On for the daises..

Then using Milani's Jewel FX polish I dotted a speck of gold glitter in the middle of each daisy just like how the perfume box does..

So after 2 coats of In the Spot-light, I used my dotting tool to randomly create daisies onto each finger and place the gold glitter... then to give the whole mani a nice sparkle I used Northern Lights Holographic Top coat in silver on top of the whole mani...

First International mani ;)

Ok first I'm in Hong kong right now!! Wow...havent been back here in a while and I totally forgot how hot/humid it can be... anyways I didnt get to take a lot of pictures of this mani but I really liked the overall effect..I was so busy unpacking and getting all my business ready..

I didnt take the step by step of the process... but I used OPI/Pirates of the Caribbean polish for all the base colors.. I alternated with Steady As She Rose and Planks A Lot..

The polishes I used were Milani Gems, OPI- Steady As She Rose, Planks A lot, and I Juggle...Men

I just alternated the 2 colors on all my fingers...

for the glitter I used my orange stick and individually placed the glitter in a diagonal line across my nail...

So since I have so much to do I have a feeling I won't be able to post as regularly as I like... I brought my laptop with me but my charger isnt compatible with the outlets.. so i cant use my laptop and im currently borrowing my aunt's one...that also explains the lack of watermark on my pictures...hopefully I can update soon...till then hope you're all having a great summer ^_^

Take A Sparkly Pill...

This mani is fast and simple..like most of my manis haha... I wanted to work with lighter colors so I used 2 OPI colors and the sparkle comes from a NYX girl polish and a Milani polish..

The pill title comes from the idea that like the Tylenol pills or the old school video games the pills were always 2 colors and the two ends were different colors like that..

First off my base color is from the OPI Pirates collection- Steady As She Rose... I used 2 coats for full opacity..

Then the other colors is from the same collection.. OPI- Stranger Tides...

To make the clean lines I used tape to tape off the section I wanted to use Stranger Tides on before putting on the polish..

Halfway through the mani I changed my pointer finger and did the opposite colors (base-Stranger tides, top- Steady As She Rose)..

I used NYX Girls- Prismatic Gold for the sparkly-ness on the top..and I placed the line of glitter using glitter from Milani-Gems..I specifically picked out the green and silver glitters for all my fingers except the pointer finger..

And then for the line of glitter on my pointer finger I specifically picked out the silver and red glitter...

Voila!

Oh and by the way...this is the first time I'm doing a "scheduled" post...but when this is posted..I'll be on a plane to Hong Kong!! ^_^ so excited~~ should be fun! I already have another mani idea in the works its simple but hopefully I can get it up in a timely fashion...hope everyone is having a great summer so far!

Purple Ombre nails~

It's raining cats and dogs here right now >.< wow... anyway today I decided to tone things down and just do a simple ombre mani. Lately my subconscious has been helping me buy a lot of purple polishes.. I didn't even know until today haha...

At first I thought it would be real quick but then I decided it was a bit plain so I added some glitter topcoat.. in the end it took a while to wait for the colors to dry and the topcoats to dry...but overall this mani was faster/simpler then stamping or other nail art...

Here's what I used... Nubar- Purple Rain Glitter (thumb), Zoya- Mira (index), OPI for Sephora- Iris I was Thinner (middle), Milani 3d Holographic- Hi Res (ring), and Essie- Lilacism (pinky)

Then to add some pizzazz to the mani I added a layer of both Northern Lights gold glitter topcoat and OPI Femme De Cirque- I Juggle...Men to my index and pinky fingers... and also I put a thin thin thin layer of OPI for Sephora- Too Good For him to my middle finger...

Macro shots of index and pinky fingers....can you see the glittery goodness?

Voila~


*after the edit*

finally! let there be sun! hehe...its so glittery ♡ ♡Pin It

Tsunami day= St. Patrick Mani.

After the devastating earthquake in Japan, there was a Tsunami warning here in Hawaii yesterday... so no school and no work... I spent the day at home watching the news and doing an Early St. Patrick's day mani...

First, I started with 2 coats of Milani 3d Holographic Polish in  Hi-Tech

Then I taped off my nails to paint a diagonal section of my nail with Zoya's Ivanka...

Then last week I got these Ah-mazing Fimo Nail art cane thingies from the Born Pretty store: http://www.bornprettystore.com/cane-nail-fimo-fruit-shaped-stick-p-292.html

and I decided to add a pretty little butterfly on my finger too...

and then Voila! ;) I'll try get a picture of this in the sun...the Milani color is sooo holographic and the Zoya is soo sparkly ^_^
