Shopping the Stash: S for Skinfood

Hello there. For the letter S, I decided to pull out an Asian brand which I haven't worn a lot - Skinfood! Too bad this pretty purple shimmer doesn't have a proper name, it simply goes by the name of VI408. Creative, I know :P

I layered over it one thick coat of OPI In true Stefani fashion. The glitter really comes to life under direct sunlight!

Thanks for dropping by.

Skinfood VI408

Hey everyone! Skinfood VI408 is a Korean nail polish I purchased two years ago and I believe this is only the third time I've worn it. I don't know why, since it is such a beauty. This was two coats of the gorgeous purple shimmer.

Do you own any polishes which deserve way more love?

Thanks for reading as always!

My Hong Kong haul

Hi ladies! I was able to pick up some nail polishes during my trip to Hong Kong. While this isn't a huge haul (I was good and only picked up polishes I really wanted!), it has fulfilled my goal to pick up some Asian (read Korean :P) brands as well as welcome into my stash some OPIs I have been lemming but was unable to get my hands on.

Firstly, some OPIs I have had my eyes on for awhile :P I was good and only bought four although I was sorely tempted in the shop to buy more!

Road house blues, I juggle...men, I lilly love you, Russian navy suede

And some Korean nail polishes! :D The annoying thing about them though, is the lack of proper name! They all have numbers only and it's so hard to remember which one is which.

Etude HouseWH702, The Face Shop BL801, PP404, PK102, Skinfood VI408

On my second last day, I spied some Flormar nail polish which were only 10HKD - that's only 1.25AUD!! Sadly, what I thought was white nail polish turned out to be extremely sheer. Hopefully it has some hidden element which will surprise me when I bring it out for layering! And frustratingly, these polishes don't have names either! :(

I also picked up some Steam cream while I was in Hong Kong since my skin was sooooooooo dry from the winter air. And it is what a lifesaver it was! After two uses, my skin was back to its moisturised self and oh-so-smooth. It was almost like touching baby skin - yes it was that smooth! I'm currently using the cream sparingly haha, but once I run out, I'll definitely be buying more :D

Thanks for looking!
