Choi's nails

If you’re reading from my nail blog I bet you’re thinking where’s the first attempt? Well, I only posted that on my LUUUX blog because I felt it weren’t good enough for my proper blog. Maybe I should have done so, so people could see the improvement from the first to my second. I really like how this one turned out even though...

Please excuse any mistakes if you find any in this post. I’m half watching and half listening to the live Olympics ceremony as I type this :) The first time I tried a foil polish was China Glaze’s Icicle which just wasn’t my cup of tea. That one was a silver foil, too plain, too classic for me but it did leave me...

I’m not sure if I wanted to post this up. I’m not really pleased with it but I figured whether the outcome was good or bad I should. It’s something I can look back on and learn from my mistakes. It’s part of my journey to learning different types of nail art. Let me tell you I LOVE Japanese nail art. A lot...

I’ve been trying to get myself back into the routine of polishing my nails, so rather than going with the polishes I have lined up in order I just went with something that caught my eye. I wanted to use this earlier for my graduation dinner but in the end I didn’t have enough time. Skylar is a sky blue full of silver...

I had second thoughts about whether I wanted to post this manicure because if you look carefully you’ll see a few mistakes and some parts are not straight. I have a list of manicure ideas I want to try out and the first on the list is a dotted manicure. Simple enough right? I couldn’t decide on a base colour, I was torn...

They’re not the best one stroke flowers and petals you might’ve seen, in fact looking at it closely it doesn’t quite look like them but this was real fun to do. I’ve tried out one stroke before but they were mainly failed attempts which are why I’ve never posted any of them up. I wanted to perfect this technique so I picked up...

It’s been way too long since I’ve worn a red or at least it feels like it. I miss wearing them especially those vampy ones besides I have quite a few waiting to be worn so I picked whichever was closest to me and slapped it on for the next day at work. This one didn’t disappoint in the end, the opacity was...

Here’s the first polish I’ve tried from Misa’s HOT summers collection. I picked the shade I least liked from the bunch, that’s not to say that I don’t like it just not as much as the other ones. Usually green isn’t my thing, I have a few dark greens nothing as bright as this one though. From the promo pictures and the bottle...

Misa isn’t a popular brand as much as others say China glaze or even Color club but I’ve seen a few in a nail salon my friend used to work in. I even own two shades myself but they’re nothing special. One’s a standard black crème which I have yet to use and another is a frosty purple shade which I hardly use....

Here’s the other half of the on safari collection. Not only did I purchase these but I added a few more polishes to my online cart since I wanted to try out other brands. That will be in the post to come because I had to separate my order for it to fit into the flat rate box. Transdesign’s shipping cost does seem...
