USING THE SWAROVSKI FLATBACK ROSE CRYSTAL: Since I didn't have a glue, I decided to just use it on my nails. Here as you can see, I painted my nails with a blue base color (you can also use black nail polish) Then drew hearts using OPI "Steady as she Rose" from the Pirates of Caribbean Collection. I sucked at drawing. Haha! I used toothpick to draw. Then after I put the top coat, I applied the swarovski flatback on my ring fingernails then sealed it with another layer of top coat.

It just adds bling-bling to make your nails look more "kawaii"

The only thing is maybe just  buy a glue because with the top coat only, the swarovski falls out so easy.

But I love it because my nails look cute!!!

OVERALL: I'll buy a glue next time and buy more colors and I'll start blinging my stuff! These Swarovski flatbacks is so shiny and it just adds character to any stuff you would bling.

Do you like blinging your stuff? : )

PROMO CODE: Here is a coupon you can use for 10% off From Bornprettystore.com

USING THE STICKER: Start of with clean nails. I also put Nail Defense on my nails to prevent breakage.

I painted my Nails with the OPI MUPPETS "Designer de Better" nail polish

Then I chose which sticker goes to which finger. I chose the big Hello Kitty to go on my ring finger.

Then I used Seche Vite Top Coat to seal the stickers.

YAY So pretty!! Nails look extra kawaii because of the cute stickers :D

OVERALL: It's nice and cute! Just remember to seal it with a top coat, otherwise it peels easily. Also when Removing with acetone, it's kind of hard to peel the whole sticker. So leave the acetone on it for a few seconds more than usual.

Beauty Review: Half Pearl Decoration Set for Nails

Note: Picture Heavy!

Hello again everyone!! I'm back!! I always want to post daily but somehow, somewhere, my brain isn't picking up the motivation to write. It's sad I know, but I also know, soon I'll be back on track. After all, I really do love blogging! ♥

Ok, so I received this Nail Art Colorful Half Pearl Decoration Set for Nails from BornPrettyStore.com.

I had it for a long time, but work and school had me get delayed in reviewing this product. I have actually used it a lot of times already but I wanna show you how I do my nails.

First Of, BornPrettyStore.com offers a lot of cute stuff in their website from make up, eyelashes, nail stuff and more. I had purchased twice from their website and never had problems. The shipping may take a while but that's just because its coming from a different country. 

Here is the price of the Nail Art Half Pearl Decoration Set for Nails. It is much cheaper if you purchase more. I suggest asking your friends if they want one so you can order it in more quantity Also, BornPrettyStore.com offers FREE SHIPPING WORLDWIDE! Yay!

Here's a 10% coupon for you guys :)

Here is my naked nails. I used to have small, brittle nails. But growing my nails has been that easy since I've been cleaning it regularly (i.e. file, removing the cuticle and cutting ingrown) and also been using Nail Defense for months and it's been keeping my nails healthy.

This nail polish set (Gradient set) was given to me by my friend Rina (she used to be a blogger **HI RINA**)

♥ I used purple color on my tips.

♥Then used the darker glitter nail polish on top of the purple and mid half of my nails.

♥ Then I used the white glitter to cover the end part of my nails.

♥...and this is how it looks! :)

♥I used a dotting tool to pick up the little half pearls and started covering my tips with the purple pearl.

It's so easy to do! And so kawaii looking too!! For a cheap nail art, you can have cute nails already. There's no way I'm an expert in doing my nails. Heck, I make lots of mistakes painting my nails alone so I'm pretty sure anybody can do this nail art!

If I can do it, you can do it too!

Hope you enjoy this post!! Until next time!!

Nails of the Week!

I have painted my nails twice this week! =) Yay for using my nail polishes! Hahaha!! Seriously though, some of the nail polish I have in my drawer have not been used once or twice :(

Here is my new Essie "too too hot" from the Brazilliant Collection. It's such a pretty red! I love the formula and how creamy essies' are.

I used Essie Turquoise and Caios on my pinky and dotted a white nail polish dots to make it look like a strawberry. It's so much fun and so easy to do =) This nail polish color is attention grabber! I've been asked so many times what color is it ♥

Next nail color is the OPI "Swimsuit... Nailed it!" Can you believe that this is just ONE COAT? Yes, just one coat! So creamy! So easy to work with!

I added the hello kitty sticker from bornprettystore.com to make it look cute p(*＾-＾*)q

I'm back to work again tomorrow.. my days off go by quick. I love being home though. Some other times, I like being alone. The "ME" time. I like being able to shop around, do my nails, get a pedicure or sometimes just walk around alone. :)

When I'm off, I don't like wearing make up. Lipgloss is enough. Like the picture  below which was taken 07.18.11 (yesterday). I feel light and carefree.
