Some Saturday Spam

Happy weekend! I hope you get to enjoy it more than I! .... unless anyone wants to write my paper for me? :)

HARE Archipelago. Tricky to apply but IMO, worth it.

Essence A Lovely Secret. The shimmer... it is amazing.

Rainbow Honey A Little Kindness over Sportsgirl Nude.

Jordana Mint Candy. = Milani Dressmaker = Chanel Jade.

Candeo Joker sandwiched between sheer white.

HARE Supernova Springs over Sally Hansen Purple Pizzazz.

Nails Inc. Baker Street. If you're Aussie, it's very similar to Ulta3 Blue Marlin.

KBShimmer Ring Master over Pretty Serious Nightmaren.

Zoya Crystal.

BYS Glamazon. This thing... holy moly. Possibly the zingiest green I own.

Ozotic 505 over black.

Candeo Mallard over L'oréal High Tide.


Here are some links for purchasing. I get lots of questions asking where to buy things so hopefully these will help. List of links:
HARE, Rainbow Honey, Candeo, Pretty Serious, KBShimmer, BYS, Ozotic.

Metallic gold leopard konad

I've been doing a bit of konadery lately. Something I haven't done in a little while. Here is today's KOTD.

Most of the time, I swing between hating animal prints to really enjoying them. Clearly, it is right up my alley today and I am quite fond of this mani. Here's what I used:

I started with a base of China Glaze Passion, konaded the print with plate BM221 and then filled in most of the spots with Essence BBC Golden Sands which I mixed with a varying amounts of Passion to create different shades.

Super Klassy!!

Silver glitter gradient

My current manicure. It's very sparkly but somehow seems kind of subdued and feminine. Lots of fun!

For this mani, I used the Essence Gel-look topcoat (recommended and gifted to me by my bud Kristy) under Poshe to smooth things out and it seems to be a better alternative to Gelous. Everything is glassy smooth.

Here's the rest of what I used.

Left to right: Essence Wear Your Little Tutu, Etude House Glam Pearl, Sally Hansen Celeb City, Etude House Sparkling Silver, The Face Shop SL211

For those interested in a breakdown, it's one coat each of Essence Wear Your Little Tutu and Etude House Glam Pearl as a base. Then SH Celeb City on the tips for opacity and finally the gradient, created with Etude Sparkling Silver and The Face Shop SL211. Easy!

Thanks for visiting!

Dollish Polish The Legend of Zelda Duo

It was decided I need this duo as soon as I read the names. The Legend of Zelda!! Oh man so cool. Do you guys have a favourite game? Mine is the Phantom Hourglass on DS. So much fun and endless hours wasted :D

Anyway, onto the polish...

The Hero of Time. One coat over Zoya Shawn. Greens, gold and brown glitter - like Link's costume. Awesome! This would look great over lots of different bases but I chose Shawn because is one of my absolute favourite green cremes.

Hylian Princess. One coat over Essence Wear Your Little Tutu. White, purple and a touch of gold - like Princess Zelda's costume. Pretty! I love Princess Zelda. If I ever cosplay, she would be one of my top picks. Of course, my first choice will always be Kitty-N, but I really don't think that bodysuit would be very flattering on me.... lol

NOTDs - CrowsToes, Lynnderella, NerdLacquer and Nfu-Oh

I'm really behind in posting. Here are a few NOTDs. Sorry, not much chat since I'm in a rush to go out to dinner and then get back to do more study *sigh* Such is life.... lol

One coat of CrowsToes Absolum over CND Urban Oasis. Absolum is packed with glitter! I will probably try to wear it alone next time.

Two coats of Lynnderella Love Potion No. 99 over China Glaze Virtual Violet. A little more red than my pictures show. Supremely gorgeous.

NerdLacquer All of Time and Space. Two coats over Essence You Belong To Me. I didn't really need the base but I was already wearing it beforehand. I hope everything is ok with the creator of NerdLacquer...

One coat of Nfu-Oh 56 over Revlon Royal. So so pretty. I love how glowy the flakies are in the sun.

Lynnderella Heart Strings

This is one of the special Valentine Lynnderellas that was gifted to me. I wore this a while ago but being the slacker I am, I'm just getting round to posting the pics.

Heart Strings has a strawberry pink tinted base with silver and red bars as well as tiny silver hexes. It also has a gorgeous blue-ish shimmer that runs through it.

I think this was one coat over Essence Ultimate Pink which is the perfect Barbie pink. So freaking pretty. I know bar glitter seems to skeeve some people out but I love it.

Also, is Heart Strings not the cutest name?! It reminds me of this....

Heartstrings. The Korean drama. Now, I'm not the biggest fan of Korean dramas. They tend to be frighteningly over-acted and I can't help but cringe through every scene. But I must say, the theme song to this one is so catchy. It's uplifting and makes me think happy thoughts. Especially the guitar at the start.

Okay... enough rambling for today. Hope everyone has a nice weekend!
