The good old days

My nail polish painting frenzy started around this time last year... Okay maybe a bit later in April? 

When the OPI New York City Ballet Collection came out  I saw it on a few blogs. I was sick of school so I headed out to the DYON Stall and got myself the mini set and China Glaze Techno. 

And that was the point of no return.

Essence C'rest La Vie! (93)

Bright coral that almost matched my bedsheets. It's very very similar to Etude House Dreams of a Girl :)

Perhaps a tad bit darker.

Then I did scallop nails to match my watermeleon shoes. The green used is Essence Viva La Green (79).

I have no idea why it looks so brownish though.

Tony Moly Milky Way (Peppermint)

This is a dupe of the Deborah Lippmann Glitter in the Air. 

I also have the Innisfree version from the yoghurt collection, #84 Peppermint Yoghurt but I haven't tried that.

 This is 1 coat of the Tony Moly on China Glaze Sea Spray. 

I didn't really quite like the opaque look a lot so next time I'll try over a jelly sky blue, if I have one.

China Glaze I Herd That

Surprise favourite for me of all the China Glaze I got last year!

So sparkly and flattering.

And it's very easy to apply :D

Love, love it.

Need to wear it again when the sun comes out.

Essie She's Picture Perfect

There is supposed to be a hidden pink shimmer, but it's hardly visible even in real life. Wish what was in the bottle translated a bit more onto the nails.

I think the formula was a little hard to work with too.

This was so long ago.

Vintage Rose Nails

Fail.

I don't know, they look like blobs of...?

I used China Glaze Refresh Mint for base, with Etude House Dreams of a Girl and Essence Enchanted Fairy (36) for the flower and Essence Viva La Green (79) for the leaves.

Skin Food Under The Sea

From Skin Food Party Tox Nails, it's serial number is 10. 

I love the cute bottle. It's a dupe for Deborah Lippmann's Mermaid Dream, just like Innisfree #101 Girl's Skirt from the Poem Collection. 

I'm actually wearing the Innisfree one now, I like it a bit more because it's got a bit more gold bits than the Skin Food one.

I also have Skin Food Party Tox Nails #9 Mermaid Teal, it's more jelly-ish and still in the untrieds :(

Innisfree #85 Raspberry Yoghurt

I promise I'll wear this again with better filed nails and take a better picture. This is 1 coat over OPI You Callin' Me a Lyre. Love this so much!!

Random Crayon Manicure Haul. It's a Japanese brand and I got them at $2 each from the $2 shop in Liang Court!

More posts coming up :D

I really should be doing work instead.
