NOTW: Pink Lemonade

Just a super quick update on what my nails look like this week since I haven't updated in a while!

It was my first time applying fimo decals to my nails so it took me two tries to get it right. It wouldn't stick to  my nails, but i finally figured out that my nails polish had to be slightly tackier to apply it on :P

I franken'd my NYC Fuchsia Glamour (aka Pink Champagne) with a couples drops of Revlon's Cherries in the Snow because the original color was way too much of a pale pink to my liking. The gold polish in China Glaze's Lighthouse from their Anchors Away collection way back in 2011 :) The fimo fruits came in a little bundle and I received it from one my good friends for my birthday back in April, which I'm assuming is from Sally's. ^^

NOTW: Glitter Gradient ft Glamorous from the Fergie Collection

It's been ages since I updated on this, my apologies!

Just a short post on what my nails look like this week using Glamorous from Fergie's wet n wild collection and Light House from China Glaze (: 

It was my first time doing a glitter gradient, and I must say I'm pretty proud :D  

The application was awesome because the brush was so thick that it covered my nails in one go, though I had to go back to build up the glitter haha. There's medium hexagonal glitter along with even smaller hexagonal glitter in a clear base. I picked this up at Walmart for about $3.80.

I might just go back and get a few more from this collection because some of the polishes look super duper pretty!

NOTW + Makeup

Just a quick update on what my nails are looking like this week. I probably won't have enough time to do any fancy stuff once school starts ; u;

Simple floral nails :)

I picked up a few drugstore products too; Marcelle eyeshadow duo in Slate, and L'oreal Infallible Laquer Liner in 171 Blackest Black. 

Retailed for about $8 CDN, but I got it on sale for $2.98. Score!

The jar is made of glass and is fairly heavy. The brush that came with the gel liner is quite lovely, and makes application really easy! Bought for $10.98 CDN

 My mom also gave a bottle of Dior's Vernis Nail Laquer in Calypso. Can't wait to try this baby out because the colour is so pretty *___* Retails $23 CDN at Sephora. 

Aaaaaaaaaaand, that's all I got for now. Hopefully I can still update every once and a while when I'm not busy from academic stuff LOL.

keeping it simple with a pretty cotton candy pink and gold this week! 

Review On BornPretty Store + NOOTW + Coupon Code ~~

Yay, my second blog post ! ^ O ^ /

  I was offered a chance to review a product from  BornPretty Store, and I ended up selecting the dotting tools.

It comes in two different designs; a pinky + white marble design, or a multi-coloured set, and retails for $4.74

The set has a total of 5 dotting tools, and are double ended ^^ The dotting spheres come in 3 different sizes: 3 large sphered ends, 2 medium, and on the other ends, 5 small sphered (which I didn't snap a picture of, whoops!)

The dotting tools are really easy to use, and don't require a lot of time for clean up. It's not as messy as toothpicks and bobby pins either, LOL.


  I received their package about 4 weeks after they initially shipped it out, which isn't too bad, since the store is based in Hong Kong, but I have to admit, I was getting kind of antsy. That being said, when I contacted customer service about my package, I received the next day, and they were very friendly and helpful when I was asking for more details ^^

It came in a bubble-wrapped envelop, and a cute little business card inside ...that I have misplaced *awkward laugh*


Okay, so onto what I managed to conjure up using the dotting tools:

moustache nails!
{ revlon's scented nail polish in cotton candy | sally hansen's black out}

These were incredibly simple to do with the dotting set, since all I had to do was dip the metal sphere ball thing into the nail polish and stick it on my nails x) 

If you guys are interested in purchasing from BornPretty, they were sweet enough to give me a 5% off coupon! Just use the code NANCYW21 (: They ship free worldwide too hehe
