NOTD: LA Colors Luscious Wine

I want to share my new favorite red nail polish: LA Colors Luscious Wine. It's a deep blood red / wine shade that's vampy but quite alluring at the same time. It toppled China Glaze Ruby Pumps and Wet n Wild Red Red as my favorite red nail polish! Another thing I'm in love with is it's jelly formula and shiny finish. I'm wearing it with Seche Vite on top and CND Stickey as base. Actually, I just added Seche Vite to make my mani last longer, but this nail polish is shiny enough that it doesnt need a topcoat for added gloss! I used four coats to achieve this depth, which isnt a problem for me since the polish is a bit thin and hey it's a jelly! I had this nail polish for about a year now and I couldn't believe that this is the first time I've worn thia beauty! My only gripe is that the brush is so thin, that instead of two to three strokes for an even coverage in a nail you might need four. BTW I bought this at Makeup Masala for just a dollar! What a steal right?! Too bad Toma closed her shop. Hmmmm... Now I think about it, I really miss the Makeup Masala store.

New found love: Keihl's Superbly Restorative Argan Dry Oill

For 2 years now, I haven't got my hair rebonded. I was supposed to get my hair rebonded again, but decided against it in the end. I wanted to embrace the natural form of my locks. My hair is naturally wavy. I love the waviness of my hair but along with it comes frizziness. I have been searching high and low for shampoo, conditioner, and leave on treatments that could really control and manage frizz but nothing I tried has succeeded in doing so. Not until, Keihl's Superbly Restorative Argan Dry Oil. I've been using this for 3 weeks now and up to now, I am still amazed by this product! It really manages frizz and makes my hair shiney and soft! I also love thia product for it's moiaturizing abilities! For the past 2 weeks, I have been using it on my face and body. I use 1 large drop for my hair both morning and night, and 3 small drops for my face! Since it absorbs quickly you wont feel greasy nor your hair will feel weighed down. When I started usibg this, my pores arent that enormous and my face isnt that oily anymore! I love it! This is definitely a 10 / 10 product!

NOTD: Water Marbling - My First Attempt!

After watching so much water marbling tutorials, I finally had the guts to try it out, and here's the finished product! All I can say is not bad for my first time hahaha. I was aiming for more complex pattern but I still haven't nastered the technique. Hopefully, I could show you better water marbling patterns next time!

I used CND Stickey as base coat, then OPI Hot and Saucy and Orly Sparks for the water marbling and I used Seche Vite fast dry top coat to seal in the design. Hope you guys like it!

NOTD: OPI Glitzerland

OPI Glitzerland is a neutral gold nail polish with foil finish. I used to hate foil finish nail polishes but I love it in this particukar nail polish! It looks like I have Minx on from a far. I cant stop looking at my nails! I feel like a millionaire with this polish on! Hahaha....

In this NOTD, I used a coat of CND Stickey then 3 coats of OPI Glitzerland and 1 coat of Seche Vite Clear Top Coat.

BTW I want to apologize for the not so nice photos recently. I've been using my iPhone for blogging. It's much more easier for me, and this way I could blog more. Hope you could bear with me.

NOTD: Essie Pretty Edgy

I used: 1 coat of CND Stickey; 2 coats of Essie Pretty Edgy; 1 coat of Seche Vite Clear Top Coat; then stamped with the cloud pattern using faux konad plate CG49 with China Glaze Bahamian Escape; abd 1 coat if Seche Vite Clear Top Coat.

Please excuse the dry cuticles! It's dry as desert due to frequent nail polish remover use. Sorry for the short tips as well. I accidentally trimmed my nails too short! AGAIN! Well next time going to show you longer nails with much more interesting nail designs!
