Sunshine after the rain... OPI Need Sunglasses? NOTD


Hello dear lovelies! Remember me? :D Sorry for that long and unannounced hiatus, as I've said before, March is a busy month for me. But now I'm back and I have another nail post for you in a fun and vibrant color... with all the things that are happening around the world right now, I think it would be nice to spread joy to everyone we can connect with. *Can I get an amen?*

OPI Need Sunglasses? from the OPI Brights collection.
Its a sunshine-y, mustard-y yellow that flatters my warm skin tone. woot! It has tiny specks of shimmer to add a bit of dimension to the nails. Application is very streaky, it took me 4 thin coats to get the opacity shown in the photos.

tip: it will look fabulous worn with neutrals, khaki, army-chic and safari-themed/colored clothes. Try it! :)

I believe its already sold out, but just in case anyone is wondering, I bought mine at Rustan's Shangri-la for Php395.

Thank you for visiting!

China Glaze Tree Hugger + Konad NOTD


When I paint my nails, I usually have no idea what to do and what color to choose, so I just grab the ones I haven't worn yet.
I picked up OPI Green-wich village and painted my nails... then thought it looked kinda dull so I topped it off with CG Tree Hugger and I loved the result! This NOTD makes me feel lucky! ^_~

Here are the nail polish I used:
OPI Natural Nail Base Coat, OPI Green-wich Village, China Glaze Tree Hugger, Konad Special Nail Polish in White and Seche Vite Fast Dry Top Coat

also tried my free fauxnad plate from bornprettystore and my Konad stamper set
I don't know if its just me but its so hard to pick up the image! it took me countless tries before the image stuck to the rubber. KONAD FAIL. I gave up on my right hand after an hour of trying really hard, it drove me crazy! >.<

on another note, I want to thank all of you who left comments on my last tag post, appreciated my handwriting and found it 'cute', OMG. All my life I have been frustrated and envied my friends who have the perfect cursive or block type of handwriting. Hahaha! Thank you lovelies for turning my frustration into joy. BIG bearhugs to all of you!
