2nd Outing with Rachel

on Thursday, i went on my second outing with Rachel~ we first stopped at a Japanese book store where we picked up cute Pa polishes. i must mention that half the store had Hello Kitty stuff...i was so excited! :) after that, we had sushi for lunch & talked about LOTS of stuff :P & we also went to a bakery. everything was so cute. haha then we spent the rest of the day driving around town, going to a few beauty supply stores + Meijers.

it was another fun day :) here's my mini haul..


at the top, my two Pa polishes; A109 + A50. from l-r: Studio M's De-Luxe-Cious, Gosh's Holographic, Essie's Barbuda Banana + Looking For Love, China Glaze's Recycle, Rainstorm, & Wagon Trail.

i'd like to mention that i got Holographic from Rachel. she's so awesome :)


Essie’s Barbuda Banana + Studio M’s Sex Symbol. Barbuda Banana is definitely not B3F & application was kinda sucky. but i didnt expect too much from a yellow polish. i used 3 coats of BB in this picture.

this is it for now. enjoy your weekend!
have a great Easter!,

Big Bang - Sunset Glow mv inspired

hi! i hope everyone is doing well! the weekend is almost here...yay! :)

i have another kpop inspired mani for you~ i actually did these 2 weeks ago but i never got around to posting until now.



although im not a big fan of Big Bang, i got a few requests to do a Big Bang mani... and so i finally came up with something. aside from Haru Haru, Sunset Glow is one of my favorite Big Bang songs. sorry for such crappy pictures & screen caps from the mv; i had to take pictures on my phone & i couldnt find an hq version of the mv at all! T___T

Manis & Reviews

as promised, i would be back to post about my manis from the packages that i got last month.


here's a random mani i did. i used OPI's What's With The Cattitude? & Ogre-The-Top Blue with a white polish.

i used one of my new brushes that i received from Born Pretty Store. let me just say that these brushes are perfect for nail art! they're so nice, small, & thin ... perfect!!


in this next mani, i used the pink polish that i received from Younique Nails. this polish is called American Sweet Heart; a very sheer pastel pink. you cant tell from the picture, but its supposed to be a gradient. you can tell it was a gradient irl. i loooove the color :) the glitter was Cover Girl's Disco Dazzle.

*just a reminder that Younique Nails dropped the prices of their polishes down from $13.90 to $10.90! :D

wheph! big thanks to Born Pretty Store & Younique Nails for sending me the products to review.

have a great one!,
