T-Mart | Nail Art Fimo Canes with Holiday Nail Art!

I was recently introduced to Tmart.com which is a website that sells pretty much EVERYTHING from electronics and small gadgets to tattoo kits and of course Tmart nail art decorations! At first I wasn’t sure how large the nail art selection would be since it is not Tmart’s primary focus, but I was pleasantly surprised by the selection, pricing and easy site navigation. I got the chance to review some very fun fimo nail art canes that I enjoyed using A LOT as demonstrated by the nail art shown here!

Coming Soon–China Glaze Crinkled Chromes!

On the heels of the ever popular textured polishes comes a brand new 6 polish collection from China Glaze! We all love pastels in the spring, but who says we can’t wear them in Winter as well? The Crinkled Chrome collection combines the iciness and shimmer of winter with the femininity of a spring pastel and the edginess of a textured polish.

Winter is a time of shimmer and shine.  Frost glistens on windows, lights twinkle in the night and decorations adorn doorways. This January, give your nails a shine all their own with Crinkled Chrome from China Glaze®.  High-shine chrome meets wintery pastels in this crinkled metal look. Chrome takes on a feminine flair with China Glaze® Crinkled Chrome.  Six gorgeous colours retain the sophisticated, polished appeal of the season, but add a contemporary edge and sense of novelty to winter nails.

Ipsy | October 2013 “Art of Beauty”

Ermmm, for some reason the October edition of my Ipsy bag was forgotten in first the wedding hullabaloo of October and then November disappeared followed by “holy crap” it’s Christmas! I have a growing pile of subscription boxes that I just have not shared with you all so I hope I’ll be able to get them in before 2013 is out!

Merry Christmas Lights!

I’m sure everyone is enjoying a leisurely day at home as I am! The holidays have really taken it out of me! I wanted to squeeze in one last Christmas nail art before it didn’t make sense anymore! I followed the Christmas nail lights tutorial from One Nail to Rule Them All which was incredibly easy to follow. I started with two coats of OPI – My Boyfriend Scales Walls followed by one coat of China Glaze – Fairy Dust. I used a black striper for the “cord” and acrylic paint for the light bulbs.

Merry Christmas to you all!

Grinchy Snowflakes

Nobody ever said snowflakes had to be white, right? I had this odd compulsion to paint black snowflakes overtop China Glaze-This is Tree-mendous resulting in a snowflake tutorial over at The Prom Show! I basically wanted to replicate what I had done with my earlier snowflakes because I actually really enjoyed painting them! And at what other time of the year would I be allowed to draw snowflakes TWICE in one month?!

Oh, and if you haven’t picked up this polish, you HAVE to! It’s so glittery and green!

KKCenterHK | Soft Stamping Review

You guys know of my mad stamping skills that have yet to amount to anything more than a childlike attempt at what is supposed to be “art”, so when KKCenterHK offered me the opportunity to try soft stamping, I figured I didn’t have anything to lose because I am already pretty awful at it! I chose a super cute stamping plate with designs that I thought might come in handy in the future.
