I'm Batty For Halloween!

Hi guys ! Hope everyone had an amazing weekend... Mine was nice and relaxing, just so sad it went by so quickly. Alex is also getting the flu ... So hoping I caught it in time so he doesn't get too sick.  Today I'm sharing another Halloween mani with you before Halloween on Thursday ... This time it's a moon and bat inspired mani . I'm trying to keep most fun and not too creepy... I prefer fun cartoonish versions on my nails.  Here's the fun batty Halloween mani - For this mani I used : Pinky and Index finger - China Glaze Get Carried A way Ring and Middle Finger - China Glaze Haunting mixed with a little white polish to achieve a lighter grey . Then I used a fan brush and brushed a little white over it to give it a misty spooky effect. I then used Tip Top Orange You Lovely and Tip Top Black Forest for the bat. Thumb - Again a mixture of China glaze Haunting with a little white , topped with China Glaze Whirled Away glitter. Ho...

Booo... To You !

Hi guys ! Hope everyone is having a fun week so far. Mine has been super busy as usual, and Alex has a mini photo shoot tomorrow morning too ... Really looking forward to seeing the photos this year.  Today I'm sharing my first Halloween mani with you. I really enjoy fun Halloween themed nail art, and will be showing some fun designs again with you this year (and different themed ones than those I did last year ) When Alaina from TheLittleCanvas posted this mani last week on her blog, I knew I had to re-create the look  . Here's the link to her original post - ghost-nail-art-my-first-stud-manicure   Mine does look different but the idea is the same as a wanted a fun idea for ghosts . And whats cooler that little white ghosts on your nails ? Except little white glow in the dark ghosts .  Here's my version of the mani -  For this mani I used - Pinky -  OPI  Stay The Night Liquid Sand Index and Ring - China Glaze Haun...

Some Fun with Stamping ♥

Hi guys ! Hope your weekend was a blast ! I really enjoyed the cold rainy weather we had this weekend, was such a nice change from the hot weather we had lately.  Today I'm sharing a fun stamping plate review. I was instantly drawn to this plate since it has fun ribbons, skulls and nautical themed image, and I can see myself using ALL of these images in the future . My favourites without a doubt are the cute ribbons. I got this one from the KKCenterHK store -  Nail-Art-Stamping -Rock-Lovely-Skull-Bow-Rudder-Anchor-Stamp-Template-Plate What impressed me most was how clear the images stamped. I didn't have any issues with any of the images on the plate, which is a huge bonus. The also picked up on my stamper smoothly and without any troubles. I created two fun looks with this stamping plates to share with you today. The first one I used a skull and a girly ribbon . The next one was a red and blue nautical look. Here's the first mani using a skull images as well as ...

Zoya Pixie Dust - Godiva

Hi guys ! Hope everyone had a fun week . I'm so glad it's weekend. Was a busy week and I have another busy week ahead next week . Good news though... Next week I'll start with a few Halloween themed posts.  Today I'm showing you one of the Pixie Dust polishes from Zoya. This is their texture polish line. I loved the beige/nude one so much I knew I had to have it the moment it came out. I'm a sucker for gorgeous nude polishes. Godiva is a beige/nude with fine silver glitter. I love how fine the glitters are in these textured polishes, almost like you sprinkled coloured sugar on your nails. I love that this is another texture that you can dress up or down, it's perfect for adding a little fun element to work. It's the second week I was rocking this gorgeous colour at work.  The formula of this polish was amazing too. A little sheer so needed three coats for full opacity. I love how well these texture polishes wears... Not only gorgeous but ama...

China Glaze - Kiss My Glass

Hi guys ! Hope everyone is having a great week so far. Mine is busy as usual.. But I guess it's always busy this time of year . Still can't believe we are in October already !  Today I'm sharing another of the China Glaze Autumn Nights collection with you. This is another one I got purely for the name , but that turned out to be a gorgeous colour .  China Glaze Kiss My Glass is a gorgeous blue-based gun metal colour . This colour is sooo gorgeous ! I love dark grey-ish colours . This is another super opaque colour, I used two coats but could have easily gotten away with just one.  Here's the photos of this gorgeous colour - This is another beauty in the collection . Again this is perfect for work or play as well as for summer , sometimes I prefer some dark neutral colours over super neon summer colours. How has your week been ? Hope the polish name gave you a little giggle .

Hi guys ! Hope everyone had a fun weekend ! Mine was nice and relaxing , just wish the weekend could be a little longer . As you know, October is also Breast Cancer Awareness month. T his should be an issue very close to our hearts . This is something that can happen to any woman (or man, you'd be surprised to know more men than woman die of breast cancer each year ) So remember, if you ever should feel a change in the shape of your breast, or any change you feel isn't normal, rather have it checked out, to be safe. If it's detected early, your chances are so much better ♥   Let me share my Breast Cancer Awareness mani with you - The colours I used - Pinky - China Glaze Unrefined Ring - OPI Alpine Snow with a breast cancer ribbon using OPI If You Moust You Moust and a pink 2mm round stud from the Born Pretty store ( Born Pretty 2mm Studs  ) Middle, Ring and Thumb - OPI If You Moust You  Moust If you are doing any posts to support Breast Canc...
