Dirty Sexy Money

Maaan, I really suck. I'm sorry I haven't been updating as much lately, the holiday season has really busied me up and on top of that, I have recently been reaching for polishes which I have already shown on my blog so there was no need to blog. But as the festive season draws to an end, I hope to be able to blog more :). Below is two coats of Misa's Dirty Sexy Money. It's a really pretty dusty turquoise;...

Siberian Nights

Woah, has it been almost a week since my last post already? Time flies when you're having fun ^^. I've been pretty busy this past week with Christmas barbeques hehe, hence the lack of posts. But now that things are finally slowing down, I'm back :P. I hope you all had a very Merry Christmas, enjoy your holiday! Today I have OPI's Siberian Nights. This polish is best viewed under direct sunlight...

Glitter tips

This manicure had been planned out differently in my head, but it didn't work out on my nails and so in my frustration, I applied glitter tips instead :P. I used two coats of Ulta3's black satin and added Color Club's Magic attraction to the tips. The mani was then sealed with non chip top coat. I like how Magic attraction adds a little bling to the tips; I think I'll use...

Sally Hansen Nail Prisms - Ruby Diamond

Woo, this is holo madness! I went out to the city yesterday and came across some stalls which sold some of the older Sally Hansen polishes. I was absolutely over the moon to discover some of their Nail Prisms polishes :D. Today I have for you Ruby Diamond which is a gorgeous pink holo. I was hoping for a bright red, something along the lines of Nubar Prize, but this one is still...

November Haul

I've decided to write up posts of my hauls on a monthly basis now instead of showing them sporadically. I've already shown my first half of my November haul here so here's part II. November was definitely my largest hauling month to date; I spent waaaaay over $100 on nail polish which is a bit over my budget, hehe. Anyway, here is part II of my haul. OPI: Yodel me on my cell, Miami...

Caribbean blue

Like I mentioned a couple of posts ago, I'm not a huge fan of blue polishes. However, after applying China Glaze's Caribbean blue, I take it back simply because this polish is beyond amazing. Some right hand photos return since my index finger has broken and subsequently become a nubbin on my left hand :P. Two coats of Caribbean blue was applied followed by a top coat. I adored this...

Supernatural, a Chanel Paradoxal dupe?

Is it possible that we Aussie polish lovers may actually have an easily accessible dupe to Chanel Paradoxal?! While the US bloggers are currently loving Revlon's Perplex and the UK/European girls have the Barry M dupe, Australia just seems to be completely MIA with the dupe-wagon. Revlon polishes are sold at inflated prices here in Australia and the polish I'm about to show you may...

Yodel me on my cell

I bought some polishes from a blogsale in late November and finally received my package a few days ago - I think I'll put off online shopping until Christmas is over, hehe. Anyway, one of the polishes I picked was OPI's Yodel me on my cell from their recent Swiss Collection. I'm not exactly sure why I picked it up, I'm not a huge fan of blue polishes, but it's not bad :P. Application was good...

Some flakey goodness :)

I decided to try out Nubar's Nubar 2010 over a black polish to see what it looked like. Aaaaand I was blown away by the awesomeness it presented :). Shown is two coats of Ulta3's black satin with one coat of Nubar 2010 layered over it and sealed with non chip top coat. All photos are taken indoors under natural lighting. I just love how the flakey polish flashes...

Nail art #20 - Stained glass window

I remember back in primary school we used to cut random holes and shapes out of a black piece of paper and stick all sorts of colourful cellophane to make a stained glass window. With Christmas coming up, I thought this would be a perfect opportunity to try out stained glass window nail art ^^. The first photo is taken indoors under natural light and the second indoors with flash. Sorry for...

Zoya - Tiffany

Woo, another polish from Zoya's latest Flame Collection :). Tiffany is a pretty peachy pink shade filled with gold glitter throughout it. This was two coats with non chip top coat. Photo was taken indoors under natural light. My mum has actually taken my camera overseas for the rest of the month so until she gets back, photos will be lower in quality. Thanks for dropping by~ Sha...

Purple rain

Another notd from the vault today :). I apologise for not posting in the past few days; I was too caught up in post-exams festivities to do much with my nails ^^. Here are two coats of TBN's Purple rain. Formula was pretty runny, but I think I can bear with it 'cos I love the outcome. The sparse silver glitter really does look like rain; awesome polish, awesome name :). Now that I'm on holidays,...
