Nubar ~ Rain, rain...in Purple!

Been wanting to get my hands on a Nubar nail polish but always deferred from clicking the 'buy' button on eBay till one day, I finally put my itchy finger on it and bought myself my first Nubar nail polish!

For a start, I got myself a beautiful colour which I saw from one of the nail polish blogs - Purple Rain. True to its name, it really does looks like rain in purple. For my swatch, I applied 3 coats on each of my nails.

Application: Although the brush is not as soft as China Glaze's, the application onto the nails is still pretty smooth. The formula of this polish is not streaky at all but it's quite sheer. 3 coats should do the magic.

Nubar polishes are definitely worth the investment. :D

Pretty oh, Swarvoski!

I was lingering around at the airport before taking the flight to Seoul for business trip when I chanced upon Swarovski boutique within the airport. Was admiring the accessories from the Pirates of the Caribbean Collection (love the skull ring but too bad it's meant for guys only) when the lady showed me the display where they were holding 50% Sale items.

That was then I spotted this ring & I just knew I gotta have it!

I wonder if my nail colour have something to do with it but the ring looked just so damn nice on my finger! Bought it without any further thought for fret of me regretting my decision, haha! Am loving this ring so much now. :D

Parcel of Joy ~ Milani Hauls

A day before I flew off to Seoul last week, I received a parcel in the office. Without a doubt, I knew what's within that parcel. That's right, my Milani nail polish hauls from Cherry Culture!

Parcel was wrapped in such a secured manner, I really have no concern on being afraid my loot would be damaged. By the way, I did not order directly from Cherry Culture but through a spree-er instead due to a linkage to my Seche Vite refill order.

There, my 2 lovely Milani nail polishes - Purple Gleam and Red Sparkle. Hope to swatch it soon & post the pictures up here!

Manicure for a wedding~

Did this manicure to attend a friend's wedding recently in May and frankly speaking, I really like this set of manicure cos they look pretty much like gel nails to me...hehe ^^.

The glitter polish comes from China Glaze's Teenage Dream, and I put on some pink rhinestones to make it more bling! Some told me why not use a more prominent colour for the rhinestones but I honestly do not want my own manicures to look too overkill...for the wedding. It's not MY wedding to begin with ya? :p

Received quite a fair bit of compliments from this set of 'bridal' manicure for my friend's wedding, felt so contented!

Remedy for my battered soles...

I have no freaking idea why my soles were SOOO dry recently till the point they cracked, leaving me with pain. Not only that, it made me so difficult to walk with cracked soles & I literally got to limp (at some point) when the pain just got too much for me.

Thinking that my feet need some moisture, I decided to invest on a foot moisturizer. After some shopping, I ended up buying a foot moisturizer from The Body Shop - Honey & Beeswax Hand and Foot Butter.
 

 

 The container's really secured, so secured to the point I was pretty afraid to open it cos it can somehow damage my manicure, LOL! However, I bought this for the sake of my battered soles, and so, I gotta use it no matter what!

Just like it's name, it looks like butter alright. It does feel creamy to the touch & smells nice too. Upon applying it onto my soles, I feel moisturized indeed. Till date, I've used it for like 2 weeks & I can see my soles getting better. And no, I'm not gonna post the picture of my batter soles cos they look too damn hideous for me to even post it up here. Hopefully, this little remedy can bring my battered soles to life soon enough~~~~~ *cross fingers*
