New OPI Additionals To My Collections

This is the OPI that I received today, My Private Jet. Decided to get this colour because I saw the display outside Jean Yip nail salon @ Jurong Point the other day. Immediately SMSed Tammy and asked if she had stock for this colour...haha...bad habit again...see nice colour always SMS Tammy check for stock availability...as seen on picture 1, this colour had diamond dust...the reason why I bought it.

New Essie Additionals To My Collections

Got the Essie and the OPI i bought from Tammy today. All 3 colours from Essie are pink...light pink, pearl pink and hot pink...Lol...from Left to Right are: Mademoiselle, Room with a view and Mod Squad. Saw from Essie official website that Mademoiselle was voted for the Readers' Choice Award Winner. A light pink that should be suitable for applying as french. Loved the hot pink, Mod Squad, nice, nice colour. Had been in love in hot pink recently. Previously I had bought 3 other hot pink by OPI. First time buying hot pink from another brand.

Broke my nails on Monday :( I was preparing to have my nails to be drawn when I go Taipei in coming August...had to trim all my nails short...might be something good too cos I had my long nails for more than 6 months! Maybe I should try gel nails one of these days :) although I had short nails I still do design on them...lol...I did very simple gradiation so they won't look plain at all.

Here's how I did:

Colours used: Base & Top coat both from The Faceshop, TINS The Aurora Mist and TINS The Pink Sapphire

1. Apply 1 coat of base coat on nail, let dry.

2. Apply 2 coats of TINS The Aurora Mist (Pic 1), let dry.

3.Apply half of the nails with TINS The Pink Sapphire(Pic 2). Let dry.

4. Lastly apply 2 coats of top coat, and it is done (Pic 3 and 4)!

Essie Island Hopping

Nice colour!

Applying Essie Island Hopping after shaping my nails to round shape. I remembered applying St. Lilac the last time but find their nail colours quite 'watery' state...don't really like...yesterday try applying Essie again, still I find their lacquer 'watery' compared to other brands which I had used before. The first coat was uneven, but when I applied the second coating...I changed my opinion on Essie :) I realised that the 'watery' lacquer actual helps me to apply the colour on my nails easier. No worries about the nail colour would had been dried up abit even I haven't finish applying the whole nail. Look very glossy even before applying any top coat :)

I'm sure to be ordering more Essie from now.

Shaping My Nails

Before


After

Realised that the shape of my nails are like becoming harder to shape into the straight shape...so I decided to shape my nails to round shape instead...sort of not getting use to round shape...took pictures of my nails before and after...which do you prefer more? :)

This is the current design that I'm wearing now on my nails, as mentioned previously on my blog I will try the combination of ENN-101 and END-201. Liked this combination, ENN-101 is the shiny dust type. I used it as my base and END-201 for my french. END-201 gives a silvery and glittery colour. Nice combination. Here's the steps how to do this design, I didn't took the pictures step by step as on previous few tutorials I had demo how to use faceshop french stickers.
