Iambabypanda's Blogiversary Giveaway!


HAPPY ANNIVERSARY! Iambabypanda is hosting a massive giveaway to celebrate the blog's anniversary! Hooray! I'll just have to blog about this as the prices are really AWESOME. I want the lip prizes. 10 lipsticks from Etude House, who wouldn't want that? Click here to join the giveaway! What are you waiting for? Join now! :>

Let the blogging begin!

Excited to whatever lies ahead!
 Good evening! I have just finished customizing my blog. I altered it into a more generic one. In the past, I only blog about nail-related stuff but then I realized that I am also interested with fashion and beauty in general so why not blog about these stuff as well?

Plus, my interest with make up is growing and growing each day! I have been spending my spare hours reading blogs, watching makeup tutorials and the like. 

So here is my new blog! I am excited to share with you my ideas and experiences that relates to fashion and beauty. Blogging is indeed a great way of sharing your ideas to people who have the same passion as you are. :)


God bless!

Tried out my fimo!

Hi! I have been trying to upload everything from my to post album so here, another nail of the past! It's the first time I tried out my fimo here. 




I used Caress Blue Marine, a gray color with blue undertones. I really like this color! It's not the usual gray shade. Application was great, 2-3 coats is enough. Caress nail polishes are cheap, only 22.75php per bottle. They have a wide variety of colors. I used a dark blue Sassy Polish to create the stripes. Sassy sells nail polish that comes off with a striper brush. I think they cost 22.75php. Both Caress and Sassy nail polishes are available at Watsons and SM Department Stores.


 My thoughts on fimo? They're cute little things! Adds an instant cuteness and art to your nails. The best part of it is they are easy to work with: topcoat is enough to make it stick. How long does it stay on your nail? Well, depends on the kind of work you're doing. It does not come off easily on me, stays on my nail for a week.


What do you think about fimos?
Have a good day!

Confession...

I must confess that I've been into make-up lately. Is make-up to blame for my loss of interest over nail art? Well, not really. Heeeee. I still can't find the answer to that.I did not really fall out of love with nail art. I just grew...tired? uninspired? I don't know the perfect to describe my feeling. Haha.




Moving on...I have some exciting news to share with you! As an early gift for myself, I bought a make-up brush set from Divisoria!! It's a faux MAC 15pc brush-set for only 400 pesos. It was very cheap. Other stalls from Divisoria sell a 15pc brush set for 800-900php so it was a good find. Aside from the brush set, I also bought a retractable Kabuki brush for 90php (originally 100php, haggle!). It was very, very soft and dense! It was my favorite purchase from my Divisoria trip.


Very professional-looking when it's closed. Hehehe. Too bad I wasn't able to open my Kabuki brush in the picture!







The brushes complete with plastic coverings. I will be making a separate post for the review of these babies.

I already tried them out. The make-up look I created is a product of these brushes.

I used my sister's palette to create the look. I want to have my own set of palettes soon. I am dreaming of owning a 96-color palette from DollFace Cosmetics which costs 900php only! I am out of budget atm because of my recent purchases. Jeeeeeeeeeeez. I am hoping and praying that my sister would get me the palette for my birthday.



Upon buying the make-up brushes, I remembered the first time I had my nail art brushes. I had the same feeling-excited, giddy, kilig feeling (click this for post on nailart brushes). I am just hoping that I wouldn't end up giving away my make-up brushes the way I did with my nailart brushes just because I lost interest. Hmm.

Goodnight!

Come back post

Hello! It's been several months since I last posted here. I don't know why but..I just lost the interest of doing nail art. My nail polishes grew cold and lonely! I paint my nails once in a while but that's it. JUST PAINT IT PLAINLY. I also gave away my nail art brushes and acrylic paint because I don't think I would use it anymore. Hmmmm :|

So why am I still here? Hahaha. I still don't have the answer to that. I just felt like blogging. I am planning to turn this into a personal blog where I can post things other than nail art.

As a come back post, I will show you five nail designs which were done in the past. Here they are!


#1 Copper/Gold Glitter Nails: It's loaded with lots of glitters!




#2 Floral Nail Decals: Are these Cherry Blossoms?



#3 Watermelon Acrylic Design: Epic fail. Now you know why I gave away my acrylic stuff!



#4 White, gray and black gradient: Reminds me of cement



# 5 Peacock! 




That's it! I hope I can blog again soon :>
