Fuss-Free Fabulous Nails

I was at Landmark shopping for unnecessary beauty stuff with one of my closest friends Carla a few days ago. And as we were about to pay, she asked me about nail foils/nail stickers that you frequently see in department stores and polish brands. I told her that a couple of months ago, I bought myself a box of Sally Hansen's Salon Effects Real Nail Polish Strips to try but didn't like it since I didn't do it right (coz it came out all wrinkly). She did however, still bought some (another brand) for herself to try since they were cheap anyway.

I regretted not buying some for myself as soon as I got home because I couldn't stop thinking about them. So, after my meeting in Greenbelt 5 yesterday with a client, I popped by Landmark to buy several designs from several different brands so I can give them another try. And I am so glad I did! (Carla, this is for you! ♥)

(Crediting FashionOxygen for the photo style. They did a B&W version of this, loved it, so I pegged it!♥ -this photo of me was taken by my hubby.)

Have A 'Sparkling' Summer Ahead!

*For my nails in this photo, I used a plain white polish as primary color. Topped with #7 (let it dry), and layered it with #2, both from first set.

This summer, add some glitter to your nails! Summer is not just about wearing pastels or neons on your nails. Adding glitter will make your nails look even more fun on the beach!

I promised myself to post a new blog entry once a day in the morning. But I had to rush this post before this nail polish set gets sold out at Forever 21. After a long day of shooting today, I passed by SM Makati to buy a BB Cream (which I will feature very soon). After an hour of cosmetic kiosk hopping, I finally chose the perfect cream and paid for my stuff (emphasis on the stuff... I ended up not buying only BB Cream).

Good thing I decided to pass by Forever 21's cosmetic area (my favorite part of the whole store), and discovered their newly displayed nail polish sets.

Be Polish Savvy No Matter What Season!

#nailcare

This fall, don't get stuck in a rut wearing just one polish! If you think you can't wear a certain color, you just have to find the best one that suits your skin color and tone. Polishing your nails is a fail-safe way to dress up any outfit!

I am a nail polish nut and have a big collection. I would like to share with you how I shop for nail polish so I have a nail polish for whatever occasion in whatever season. 5 different brands and shades from each color group that I think are nice basic hues to have. You just have to choose the right hue for a particular season!

Polishes last a long time as long as you keep them tightly closed and store them in an airtight container away from direct sun light. When polishes get sticky and too thick, use a dilutor like Bobbie's Nail Polish Solvent.

BLUES


GREENS


ORANGES


PINKS


PURPLES


REDS



What are your favorite nail polish brands, colors and shades? Would love to hear from you!

*All polishes are available in SM or Landmark. Love and Beauty Nail Polish is available in Forever 21.
