Hi~~~ Sorry, I seem to be updating at the most random hours of day! It’s just that my body clock still hasn’t gone back to normal. =/ Partly because I stayed in bed and slept all day yesterday because I woke up to a slight fever >< Anyways, updatinggg~~
Last week, a new branch of Etude House opened at Market! Market! I’ve always loved their products since I got to try out some of them back in 2007, during my first trip to Korea^^ And ah, was really happy that there is finally a branch near our place, because their other locations aren’t as accessible to us. I was able to go during the day that it opened, so they still had stocks of the stuff I was looking for : D
I bought new nailies! These aren’t much of a ~haul~ I know, but hehe still happy ^^
I bought:
- Petit Darling Nails Matte Real Nail Top Coat – PHP 198.00
- Petit Darling Nails Matte in #7 Lemon Cheese (okay weird name right lol) – PHP 98.00
- Petit Darling Nails Matte in #8 Mint Cookie – PHP 98.00
- Petit Darling Nails Base Coat – PHP 48.00 (Katie and I really love their base coat^^ ㅋㅋㅋ)
- Petit Darling Nails WH706 Black- PHP 48.00
Matte Real has got to be my favorite right now *_*
I was srsly happy they had it in stock! I’ve been wanting to buy this for a while now, but the other branches I have been to so far don’t have it. I love, love how it dries to quickly and has that really niiiiice velvety finish. I’ve had this ~fetish~ for matte stuff and gah it’s so hard to find matte nail polish around here = / So hehe, this is a really, really good purchase.
Also, as always its brush applies quite well! Bottle and packaging looks nice too ^^ It costs a little less than PHP 200, and totally worth it. Katie and I will most likely be buying a bottle or two more to keep in stock~ ^^
Lemon Cheese & Mint Cookie!
I haven’t really gotten around to trying these out! Haha. It was when I got home that I realized I probably shouldn’t have bought them, because I already bought a matte top coat. Haha ^^” Oh well~ Katie and I might include these in one of our upcoming giveaways, so watch out for updates about that 😀
Matte Black + Aqua Nails
Because I couldn’t sleep, I ended up doing my nails instead! Also, I have strong-ass love for JaeJoong’s Matte Black Audi R8:
(Okay okay, I just really wanted to put this sexy car up there… HAHA)
Seriously now~ I wanted Matte Black nails, but since I want color too, I thought of putting on aqua polish as well ^^
For this I used:
- Matte Real Nail Top Coat
- Etude House Beauty Darling Nails Base Coat
- Etude House Beauty Darling Nails WH706 Black
- Splassh Aqua – RM 8.90 (I bought this at Sasa during our KL trip last year ^^”)
Right hand!
I didn’t really get to take photos step by step OTL But hehe here are photos of both hands. I got to lazy to use nail tape, so the lines aren’t that straight at all ^^’ Used a dotting tool for the polka dots, though~ My right forefinger is so short = ( I had to trim it because it broke the other day. I really don’t like short nails so I didn’t trim the rest for now.. >< Five dots on there! (*cough* Cassiopeia *cough* LOL)
Left Hand~
I really don’t remember what I was trying to make on my middle finger nail /facepalms
One more~
I applied about 3-4 coats of the matte top coat. You don’t really need to put that much, 1-2 coats are enough, and already gives a really smooth and nice finish! I just had too much fun watching it as it dried. LOL =P
I’m not very happy with the squiggly lines so I guess I might re-do this over the weekend when I have more time. I do need to buy a remover though, plus nail tape, because we have already ran out~
I guess I’ll have to see how long its ~matte-ness~ will last : D Will update you on that. Right now I am loving how it looks on my nails! ^^
In few hours, I will be off to Korean Language Class~~ Which reminds me that I have yet to blog about the meeting with the Korean Assistant Minister of Culture, the KCC opening, as well as our classes for the past meetings *_* Haha~ So much to write about ^^’ I hope I can get on to it soon!
For now I’m going to take a loooong bath while coffee-ing and watching 绝世双骄! ^-^
Have a great dayy~
Love,
Mishie
