An Affair with OPIs

May 11, 2010

My affair with nail polishes is getting "wilder" these days. I can even foresee my drawer space getting lesser and lesser with these babies. xD

Anyway, I went for a medi pedi session again two weeks ago for a birthday treat (not sponsored by anyone thou..). And that was really a good reason get pampered since my last visit with Nail Hansen were 2 months ago (during CNY). LOL!

*Queensbay Penang Nail Hansen, doing pedi on my friend. :)

Here's what I got.
*the chopsticks were there because I was camwhoring during dinner time. xD

Product pic of OPI - Italian Love Affair.
It's a classic color from OPI. Very sweet pink with slight peachy undertone. However, only two coats of this on my nails. IMO, you'll need 3 coats to get them fully covered.

As for my pedi color, I got this.
*no flash.

* with flash.

This was from one of their LE collection :OPI's holiday in Toyland.

Too bad I couldn't find this around anymore. The color is such a beauty!

I really envy beauty bloggers that could do their medi and pedi so nicely. My nail polish application is still streaky and patchy. >.< " aah.. practice.. practice!!

Anyway, have a great week my lovely people. =)

Nail Polishes: China Glaze Lubu Heels and Dorothy Who?

March 14, 2010

Okay, going to make this quick since these were my NOTD for last week. Now my nails are "naked" at the moment since I'm doing a lot of crazy house chores. >.<

As you might have seen my Ruby Pumps.. I actually got these colors as well.

NOTD: China Glaze Lubu Heels.


Another up close with my recent SkinMD Shielding Lotion. =)

It looked pretty "black" when painted on the nails. The texture feels like "watery" black paint. I did this for two coats, then only the glitters will show up. These has finer glitters than Ruby Pumps!

The consistency of this is watery, which is not the same texture as Ruby Pumps even though they are both from the same company. BTW, the color on the nail polish bottle shows red but I'm really curious why the nail polish turn out to be "black" when painted. -_-

And this lovely color was on my feet.

NOTD: China Glaze Dorothy Who?

Please excuse the funky application. LOL!

It was a tough one when painting the toe nails. >.< Or maybe I have a stiff backbone. :P
And I love love love this color! =) Maybe I should paint them on my finger nails. Super bling!!

ahhh.. sexy. (please ignore me. :P)

China Glaze Dorothy Who? is such a nice color! Totally recommend this if you are up for challenging colors! =)

The consistency is very similar to Ruby Pumps. Not runny and neither too thick. Just nice. These are applied with two coats. And it covers up the nails well. My Dorothy Who? still stays on nicely on my toes after 5 days of application! No chipping.

As for your question on where do I get China Glaze Polishes.. It's from Transdesign. =)

Another note about Lubu Heels and Dorothy Who? nail polishes, they are such a pain to remove! -_-
The glitters take some time to remove them off. >_<

But they do stay "longer" on the nails than those nail polishes without glitters.

Have you tried these yet? Do share some interesting colors if you have. I'm obsessed with them now. (help!!!)

Nail Polish #1 Ruby Pumps from China Glaze

March 4, 2010

Hello all!

I'm very excited to show you what I did (without the help of Nail Hansen) to my nails!

PIC: 2 coats Ruby Pumps + Seche Vite Dry Fast topcoat

Even though it is still freaking messy, but I don't care! muahaha. Hopefully I have the determination to practice, practice, practice!

This is from China Glaze by the way!



Damn freaking cool color! Ruby pumps!

I actually didn't know what to get at first since I'm torn between OPI's I'm not really a waitress and China Glaze's Ruby Pumps. But I'll go with the cheaper one first. =p

BTW, it's so freaking tough to get the actual color out! RED is my camera's enemy. (LOL!)


Anyway, have you tried China Glaze's nail polish? I'm reading too many good reviews For Audrey but needed more suggestions though!

Do share away if you have any color that you like from them!
