DIY Manicure: Precious Princess

Another DIY Manicure, named Precious Princess. If you were thinking that was Swarsoki Crystal then you are wrong. The blingees were actually some "gold powder", big size one which normally come along with transparent polish. That bottle cost me, oh not mine actually, less than RM2. Lols. I know I am CHEAPSKATE but I do not really willingly too spend on getting the infamous Swarsoki crystal beads, not that I know where to purchase that pun. Even nail polish I only have one bottle from Sally Hansen, the rest is cheappy brand too. So, nothing beats a RM2 fake crystal huh~~ And I can tell, it don't felt off even though I washed lots of dishes ya know. Good good good~ Cheap and good! I like. Nail polish appear to be nicer with long nails, but long nails is hard to maintain -_-" But my sis said short nails are IN nowadays :p

DIY Manicure:Dot dot manicure

I got 2 new design (konon) of manicure. Hopefully this will last me for long lols. After so many practices, I am still so so bad in painting my right hand. So a cool solution I got for these designs is to get a GOOD helper aka. my sis xD. Brillant right??? Allright, lets start first tutorial on nail manicure today. First of all, go and buy a lots lots lots lots colourful nail polish first hehehh...
Okla, first of first, get the items before starting

1. Base coat and top coat
2. White color polish

3. Bright pick color polish

4. A toothpick
5. Sufficient amount of polish remover and cotton
(for faulty removal la of course!)



Winter Strawberry and Spring Blooms

Winter Strawberry: Very easy, apply Base Coat and let it dry. Apply a white color polish. Draw the edge with one or two strokes using the pink polish. Start dottting on the white surface using toothpick. Make sure the polish is 100% dry before applying top coat.
Tips:
The only layer of white polish might look uneven, it should be allright after the pink dotting.
To avoid pink dots to become to thick, pour some of the polish out to a piece of paper and take the dot from there instead of dipping the toothpick inside the bottle of polish

Spring blooms: Apply Base Coat. Start with five pink dots, sort of making a circle, on all five nails. Dot the center of the circle with white polish. Let it dry and apply topcoat.
Tips:
This is the one down by the helper aka my sis, hoho.. I am bad in paiting using my left hands la.




For more information, I was using BASE COAT from The Face Shop, White Color Polish from Elianto, Bright Pink from i-dunno-the brand from Watson, the bottle is in star shape and Top Coat from Skin Food. The best polish I tried before is Skin Food, smooth and quick dry and the price is reasonable at RM 8.80. Elianto nail polish is bad, but its cheap at RM5 per bottle, i have a white and black color of it, only for drawing use only, not for painting the whole nails.

DIY Manicure: Baby Blue Spring

Gave my nails some flora-ish paint. Fuhh...first time I came out with output because normally i would rub it off because of so many reasons, calar la, imbalance stroke la, bubble la, a little chips la, color not that nice la :p I am just simply cannot accept imperfection on my painted nails so many times i would end up with only shining transparent coat. And I super hate to paint my right hand's nails >_<>
There was once when my cousin sis who is 10 years older than me applied striking red nail polish for my sis, we were still in primary school back then ;-) It was so feminist to have colored nails, so cute and adorable lo. It was until my dad found out that little paint and he rubbed it off with thinner, mind you, not the normal nail polish remover ok.....He got so angry that he wiped it off using the thinner you use to dilute the nippon paint. It was either he hated the color or he felt that nail polish did gave a bad impression(bad girl or slutty). For which I believe the reason of his act was the latter one. That was story when we were in primary la. During secondary time,I had never hesistated to buy nail polish and applied it at home wheeeeee....And I never get scolded pun, maybe my dad had increase the length of his mind xD


Ok, enough of nail polish story, now I represent you my creation of the year....please bear in mind NOT to view it in near distance. Jeng jeng jeng..............
