OPI La Paz-itively Hot

oh wow. what a bright color, eh? this is OPI La Paz-itively Hot and no, it's not hot! it's sizzlin'! lol. i love love love this color. it's hot pink with a hint of blue shimmer. the color changes, though. i mean, the color is different on different lightings (did i make sense? :p). application was okaaay. only okaaay because it's a little runny. it pooled on my cuticles. but other than that, nothing bizzare, horrible, and what not. and one more thing, drying time's AMAZING! that's all for today, sister! have a good day! :)

oh before i forget, promise i'll try to take pictures of this color once again! :)

novo swatch

this is a swatch of my not-so-recent purchase of nail polish. i was a bit disappointed with the yellow one. in the bottle, it looks really good. just like a pastel yellow, but once applied on my nails, it becomes a mustard-y yellow. the orange polish on the other hand looks like a pumpkin! lol. it's great for holloween. i didn't have any problems with the application of the two. one thing that annoys me though is the smell! it stinks like hell! >:(

Caress Neon Purple

is this a neon color? i don't think so. i had this bottle before and i really like it. this is good for the toes but i don't think it's pretty with my hands. the application was great, though. applied evenly and opaque in two coats.

collective haul

oh my god. i can't stop buying nail polishes. yesterday, i bought nine! NINE?! no more money, charbee. :( but it's ok. i'm happy. :)

these are the ones that are really cheap! :D
(Pro 10 Nail Lacquer = $0.52 ; small bottles = $0.20)

are you familiar with the Pro 10 Nail Lacquer? these nail polishes were bought from a person who came from United States. she got them from Rite-Aid for $2.99!

but she sold it to me for only $0.52! i'm in luck. ;p

look at this one, this is really pretty! look at the rainbow glitter! like a holo glitter! :)

and this one is pretty, too! just lovely! i'm loving the copper + blue glitter mix! :)

and yesterday, we went to Shangri-La mall to buy our school stuffs. and look what i've found! a buffing block (BEST nail product ever), one nail polish from Orly and one nail polish from OPI! plus a chocolate cupcake lollipop (chocolate + cupcake + lollipop = HEAVEN)! :D


the colors i managed myself to get... :)


lovely lovely colors! :)

as soon as i went home, i checked my stash if i have a dupe of the things i bought. glad i don't! yey me! OPI's and THEFACESHOP's are similar but not dupes. TFS' has a creme finish while OPI's has this blue-ish duochrome! love it! :)

that's all for now. buhbye! :)

skittles

hurray. my NOTD chipped. lol. when my manicure chips, i have the chance to remove it and swatch new nail polishes! and today, i did a skittle swatch. :)

i had fun doing this. ain't the bottles cute?! so small. :)

sorry, there's no thumb in there. :p

this one is very glittery. 3 coats.

opaque in one coat but needs top coat!

i'm loving this color. purple shimmer in the bottle but it's actually silver-y up close and personal. it's like a chrome finish nail polish! very metallic-y. two coats. :)

rose nail polish with golden shimmers. two coats. :)

very sheer pink nail polish with purple undertone. if you wan't to go natural, go for this! three coats but tips are still visible. this is really nice under the sun. :)

although nail polish colors are great, the brushes are weird! but it's ok to me. it's really cheap so everything's expected. and this stuff actually made me laugh. lol. look how gawky the brushes are! :D

i really like their bottles. they are so enticing without their caps! haha. :)

mini nail polish haul

EDIT: please ENLARGE the pictures by clicking on them. they are so much better that way. ;)

i have a haul again. wee. i love nail polishes a lot. teehee. but don't worry, guys. all these things are cheap, and amazing. :)

(mini bottles = $0.20 ; big bottles = $0.41) 
so sad that these polishes don't have names. :( but y'know, we can name them! please please comment some suggestions, and be sure to tell me what color are you naming. :D
they're all shimmery goodness except for the last two cute bottles. i love their handle! so long! :)

and look! my sister's lip gloss collection!
ain't that a lot for a six year old?! lol. :)
but it's ok. most of them are gifts, anyway. :)

Ever Bilena Blueberry

this is such a pretty color. it's a creme pastel blue polish. i love the application of this one! so lovely! the drying time was fast! i didn't expect it to be that fast considering that it is cheap. price is about $0.80. :)

after checking my nail polish every now and then for about 5 hours, i thought it was kind of boring. lol. so i added a konad design. i used pinkpink nail polish in blue and plate m26. i also added some glitters. woah, GLITTERS. :)
i used the flower design. :)
