Random nail art with nail stickers~

Hey everyone~^^ I was feeling really random the other day and so tried out some of the nail stickers I received from Born Pretty Store awhile ago. I applied two coats of Misa Office polish-tics on to my fourth finger and OPI Siberian nights on to my other nails. The flower nail stickers were randomly stuck on and I added a rhinestone to my middle finger. I used the bullion...

All hands on deck!

Hello~ One of my major lemmings from China Glaze's Anchors Away collection was Below deck. Dubbed as the dupe to Channelesque, I knew I just had to have it. While nail bloggers have compared the two and declared them as very-similar-but-not-quite-dupes, I think I'm satisfied with Below deck anyway :). This is two coats of Below deck and no top coat. What a gorgeous and shiny polish <3....

Beautiful, squishy jelly

Hello everyone~ I'm back and pumped from camp now woohoo :). I wore what I'm now going to call the most beautiful layering of all time to camp. This is two coats of China Glaze First mate layered with one coat of OPI Last friday night. The combo reminds me of Deborah Lippmann's Across the Universe but they're not dupes. They're similar-ish but no go at the duping. Comparing with swatches...

Sailing off into the sunset~

Hello~ Lol, cheesy title, I know :P. When I first saw swatches of China Glaze's Anchors Away collection, Sunset sail was not one of those polishes which drew me in. However, after seeing more and more swatches of it, I decided to purchase it and try it out since I don't have many polishes in this shade. Shown is two coats of Sunset sail. While this may not be a polish I will normally pick up,...

Review: Office Polish-tics

I wore Misa Office polish-tics a couple of weeks ago whilst on my prac and since it lasted for the week, I thought I'd write up another quick review. This is two coats of Office polish-tics and I think the photo was taken on the third day of wear. As you can see, no chips or tip wear :D. This lasted...

Glitter Gal Fuchsia

Hello~ :) I recently had the opportunity to sample one of Glitter Gal's holographic polishes kindly sent by Kerry. Fuchsia is exactly what the name states - it's a pretty fuchsia shade which looks amazing under the sun. I used two coats in my swatch and while there was still visible nail line (vnl), it was minimal and I was actually ok with it. The polish was swatched with a base coat,...
