May haul

Hi everyone~ Yes, this is finally another haul post! I really haven't been feeling the nail polish collections since China Glaze's Anchors Away collection which I hauled waaay back in February.

Alluring courage

Hi~ :) I'm lame and decided to combine the two polish names to create my post title. Hopefully my mani sort of redeems this post :P. I was in one of those 'I dunno what to wear but want to polish my nails' mood and so opted to go with a shade which I have the most number of polishes - purple. Actually, I've never counted but I'm assuming I have more purple than any other shade since I'm a purple...

The one that got away

Hi everyone~ Gee, this is late for me! I don't usually post at 12am in the morning but I'm procrastinating and don't want to go to bed. Lol, how bad is that? .__. I have a lovely polish to share in this post though. OPI The one that got away is a part of their recent Katy Perry collection. While I'm not a fan of the singer, I do have to say that I'm loving all the polishes from this collection....

A shattered rainbow

Hi~ :D I'm pretty happy with the way this mani turned out although it did wrinkle on me a bit. I was in the mood for a new mani and couldn't decide on a colour so I decided to combine them :). And of course I had to reach for my Black shatter to spice things up. I tried applying it with various strokes to make it crack differently and I love how it turned out! I freehanded the heart on my middle...

Drag marbling take two!

Helloooo :D I'm extremely happy since my prac is almost over, although at the same time I'm going to miss the kids like crazy :(. Anyway, here's a drag marbling I did around a week ago when the kids went out on an excursion. I was seriously going crazy from only wearing work appropriate polishes :P. This is two coats of Essie Sew psyched, I used Ulta3 black satin to do the marbling. I love how...
