just popping in...

hi! -cant believe its been a little over a month since my last post. i have today off work & i dont have a list of errands to run, so i decided to drop by. i hope everyone has been well ~

i honestly havent been doing much to my nails lately; for some odd reason, my nails have become brittle & they split easily ... and its really sad :( im trying out a new base coat right now, but if anyone has any suggestions to good, strengthening base coats, please feel free to share :)

anyway, just wanted to post a few pictures of the very few nail art stuff i've done.





so simple, right? haha; oh well.

enjoy your weekend!,

    they are very nice!
    the first one with the diamonds is a manicure i've seen a few times before, but I always thought it was to much for the nail, but you have it in one color and with the black.. well I have to admit that I think it is just gorgeous!

    They are both very lovely :)

    I have to ask you - how do you remove the rhinestones, especially when there's so many of them on one nail? I just always lose my nerves if I need to remove even a few rhinestones, my nails don't seem to like it too much.. (and I still love rhinestones and use them on almost every mani!)

    Hi Katrina,

    I've had to deal with brittle nails in the past too, but I never use strengthening base coat.

    I used "Biotherm Biomains Age Delaying Hand & Nail Treatment", covering each nail with with a generous amount every night and letting it absorb into the nail before I go to bed. Now, I have healthy, rock-hard nails =D

    Anyway, great to see you popping in! ^^

    thanks ladies! & thanks for your inputs on base coats <3

    Lumi, i just use regular non acetone remover to get the rhinestones off; they slowly start coming off themselves, so it doesnt take much effort. haha

    forever '92, thank you for the award~

    I love how perfectly shaped your polka dots are! Sometimes, mine are a bit messy! I guess it is just a matter of taking my time and not rushing through~

    I became a fan of the first picture!
    I would use rhinestones more often, but I am afraid about dropping some while preparing food:S
