Zoya Harley

Three posts in a period of one week?? That must be a record for me! :P Here's Zoya Harley as my base color. Even though Harley has a bit of shimmer to it, I decided to add a layer of China Glaze Fairy Dust for extra sparkle.  Next, I used Zoya Kelly to stamp the zebra pattern from Konad image plate m57.  I couldn't resist and added a large silver rhinestone to my ring fingers.  Although I love zebra print, black and white zebra print can sometimes be a little too bold for me.  These colors give it a softer look.

China Glaze Liquid Leather

The other week I joined Thriszha and Mae's black and white challenge.  This was my entry for the challenge.  I used China Glaze Liquid Leather, konad image plate m57, and white stamping polish.  I wanted each nail to look different so I stamped the flowers one at a time and randomly placed them on my nails.  

As usual, this is just a quick post to say hello and update since my last post was about two weeks ago :)

china glaze make an entrance

This is one of my favorite colors to wear ... it's china glaze make an entrance. I didn't want to cover up the color too much so I kept it pretty simple. I used the largest flower from image plate m57.

It's summer again!

I'm finally on summer break! I have had such a stressful semester and I'm glad it's over! Since my last post, I've only taken a few pictures but since I'm on break, I'll have more time to do my nails and post more pictures. Here's the very few that I have. They're not much, just simple designs that didn't require too much time.

I love this color! It was sold out in most MAC stores that I

checked and online but I found it at Nordstrom.

I guess I had a blue/purple phase going on...

This is how I did my nails for my friend's wedding.

The design was inspired by the dress I wore.

That's it for now :)

blue leopard print

This past weekend was pretty busy. I helped my mom run errands Friday and Saturday. Then Saturday night, we had people over to watch the Pacquiao vs. Cotto fight. Yay Pacquiao! Anyway, after everyone left I finally had a chance to do my nails. I wanted my nails to match a top I have. I couldn't decide whether to do leopard or zebra print. I would've tried to do both so that the pattern would be the same as my top but I was too tried to try (it was 1 in the morning). I ended up doing leopard print. I still want to try doing both prints to see how it turns out. Anyway, here are the pictures ...

Here's the pattern on my top.

halloween nails

I was so busy with school last week and didn't have a chance to post up a picture of my halloween nails. I actually did them about a week before halloween and took a picture right after. Anyway, here's what I did ...

Orly Crush On You, Konad black, and m36.

On the day of halloween, I changed my nail polish and did a leopard print design to match my leopard costume (well, not really costume .. just ears and a tail.) I was busy that day and didn't have a chance to take a picture thinking I could take a picture the next day. Unfortunately, they already chipped the next day so I decided not to. Since I had a day off from school yesterday, I had time to do my nails. I used Zoya Demi as my base color. Then I mixed a small amount of Demi and a few drops of white konad polish to make it a bit lighter than the base color. I used the color I mixed for the net looking design (m57). Next, I used konad white for the flowers m35. For the butterfly (m36), I mixed konad white with a few drops of Demi, making it lighter than the net design. It wasn't hard doing this, just a bit more time consuming than the other manicures because of the mixing and all the different designs.

fun with konad

This was my first time using konad. I used China Glaze Channelesque, Konad white, and m57.
