Romantic Pink Nails and Tip

Every princess has her own story....

Mine is plain and simple...


I painted my nails pink,


I got a wink ;)

from the man of my dreams!





Products Used ---
  • L'oreal Jet-Set Pink
  • The Face Shop in PK104
I seldom have my nails professionally done, first, I want to save up and second, I do ENJOY doing my own nails! (Surprisingly! lol)

When you plan to use a "Shimmery" nail polish, you always wonder why the polish looks really good on bottle but when used, the color isn't that vibrant? Well read on! Simple answer for you.

"Shimmery" nail polish are just like our shimmery e/s. We need a base for the e/s to show up. Same concept with the nail polish!

1. Choose a similar colored polish that can serve as a base (the color Platinum is the best!)
2. After putting on the base, swipe one coat of the Platinum color.
3. Swipe a coat of the "shimmery" nail polish (you can swipe 2x)
4. You can finish up with a top coat!


Smile and say YAY!!! Nice looking nails that are vibrant and lasts!
Do you like "pink" nail polish? If not? What color do you think looks best on your nails?

Want to see what I go through to have my nails done?
Smile and say Mani/Pedi!

  10. You're right, wherever it's made, it's going to be cheaper :) So MAC must be cheaper in Canada?

    Prettybeautiful, oohhh don't get me wrong, I'm no expert as well, if seen closely, the polish isn't even perfect LOL So you never wanted to use nail polish even clear ones?

    Alyssa, LOL only Korean who doesn't own TFS products? I think I'm the only blogger who never tried Stila Eyeshadow! LOL

  13. I honestly cannot get my nails done outside. I have a phobia with bacteria. I cannot trust whoever will take care of me will really clean their tools the way I'd clean mine.

  15. Jijie, so sorry that you've got phobia wit bacteria. I know what you mean though, they used it to so many people's toenails and finger nails! LOL I'm just lucky the lady who does mine sanitizes her tools before using it on me :)

  23. My favourite color for nails is Rouge noir from Chanel (Le Vernis n°18), actually i love the blue satin too.
    I use pink nail polish usually for french manicure, when strong pigmented nails aren't ok for the occasion, or if i apply some stickers on my nail (usually small flowers in white, so trendy in Italy).
    Hugs.
