Chinese New Year

As you read this I am on a plane to China to visit my parents for Chinese New Year. To celebrate I did some red and gold nails. This is the year of the Snake so I did a tiny snake on my thumb. My nail art skills aren’t that great yet as I am just starting so the snake looks a little funny but the more you try the more you get better.

So I started with 1 coat of OPI Matte Nail Envy as my base coat. For the Gold Nails, I used 1 coat of China Glaze Magnetix in Gold Fusion, I know it is a magnetic polish but it was just the right colour for what I wanted. On top of that I used a thick coat of Wet n Wild in Gold and the Beautiful. The Red nails I used 2 coats of Sally Hansen XtremeWear in Red Carpet, it is also the best Christmas red I have ever found. The badly executed snake on my thumb was done using the China Glaze Magnetix in Gold Fusion. The top coat I used was Revlon Extra Life No Chip Top Coat.

As I am going to China and will be unable to reach WordPress from there unfortunately I will have no posts because I have been so crazy preparing for the trip that it took me 3 days just to take a picture of these nails and had to redo some of them because they had chipped already, not a really good sign for a No Chip top coat. Now off to practice drawing snakes, wish me luck!!

Thanks for Reading 🙂 🙂

Nail Polish Haul

So I picked up few nail polishes over the last little while and I thought I would share them with you. Plus my wonderful boyfriend bought me some. 🙂

First we have Essie Blue Rhapsody which is a beautiful chrome blue from their recent Mirror Metallic Collection. Then two Art Deco by L.A. Colors nail art colours in White and Black. The last one in this photo is Wet n’ Wild Fastdry in The Gold and the Beautiful.

These are the ones my boyfriend bought for me; they are from the Magnetix collection and the colours are in order: Postively In Love, Con-fused?,  and Gold Fusion. Of course we also got the magnetic plate that has three different designs.
