A Time for Golden-Black

Sometimes, I really feel that gold brings a certain level of 'class' to the person using or wearing it, but likewise, not everyone can carry the colour gold has.

And so, I attempted to try it on my nails to see if i can bring on gold's classy presence. This time, I did a black french manicure with gold-color base. This design took me less than 30 mins to complete. :D

Not entirely sure if gold really suits me, but I feel this combination of golden-black does look kinda nice on my nails, hehe~

Lubu Heels, Pretty & Stunning~

My original plan for the 'Manicure of the Week' wasn't supposed to be this. My intention was to try to swatch OPI's Not Like the Movies which Angela had T-loan to me when I mentioned to her about buying. I'm glad I did not! OPI's Not Like the Movies is just too streaky for me to like it & thus, I change my color for the week.

China Glaze's Lubu Heels on the other hand, is so smooth to apply on my nails! I believe their brush is one of the main factor for the easy application.Was seriously lacking inspiration for nail art due to me struggling with Not Like the Movie's streaky application, I decided to just put on some rhinestones on my nails instead. The picture isn't doing justice to both the color and the rhinestone perhaps due to the lighting. But! The outcome from Lubu Heels' is absolutely stunning!

I know there can be more done to my nails to just putting some stones on them but please understand the frustration I had to go through to remove the nail lacquer I thought I'd like prior to this...Argh.

Fun with Crackle ~ OPI Katy Perry Collection!

Had heard so much rave about Katy Perry Collection from OPI which caused cracked effect on nails. And so, I decided to give it a go at it too! Bought Teenage Dream & Black Shatter from OPI to see how amazing since this will be for my first attempt ^^.

Teenage Dream from OPI

How it looks on my nails ~ PRETTY!

Saw how glittery Teenage Dream is? It is so damn pretty on my nails, I almost couldn't bear to apply Black Shatter onto them T_T

However, my objective is to find out how the crackle looks on my nails, thus, I have no choice but to go ahead!

Cracked Effect after applying Black Shatter

Tada~! Here's the result of Crackle a.k.a Cracked Effect. How's that looked? Pretty amazing right? I really like the effect of this & I may just use a different base colour other than Teenage Dream to play with it! For a more lasting wear, do apply a top coat on top of it ya? For me, I am using Seche Vite's Fast Dry Top Coat which works like a charm all thanks to my very very very very pro colleague who's VERY into nail polishes!

Am gonna attempt on tape manicure soon. Good Luck to me! Ha ha ha~
