11: NOTD

Hi Everyone!

I just wanted to share my nail of the day with you all and hopefully this super simple design will inspire some really great nail art :)

So I got another job working for a big company as a sales assistant here in Chatswood (the suburb I live in) and they require you to wear all black as a standard uniform. All black and no colour really bums me out so I decided to make my nails look a bit nicer to make myself happier. Now I actually don't know if this is allowed at work so I'll have to ask at my orientation on Wednesday. Hope you guys like it..




Taken with flash - Taken without flash. This was really easy to do! I put a layer of base coat (I'm using OPI's Nail Envy because I'm trying to make them grow stronger and faster) and then attach 2 heart flakies and a crystal rhinestone in the middle. After that I just sealed it together wtih my Seche Vite. When I use rhinestones I usually like to use a generous amount of top coat so it's fully protected.

Also..

I acually wasn't going to post this because I wanted to surprise the girls but I couldn't help it! After my exam today I went to a Japanese $2.50 store and bought a whole bunch of stuff which included 5 Charmmy Kitty paper bags. These bags are soo cute so I decided to use them to pack the nail polishes from the Giveaway. Millie, Mia, Missy, and Hannah you should be recieving yours in the mail soon.. hopefully :D



Hope you really enjoy them!


Anyways guys my last exam is tomorrow afternoon so I'm gonna take this time now to cram all that I can into my under-average sized brain. Hope I pass!

xx

    Hi Tuli!

    Thanks for such a sweet compliment :D
    I really hope they're ok with nail art or else I'm going to have to start wearing multicoloured headbands or socks. Those bags are super cute! I was so surprised they were only $2.50 for 5 :)

    HIIII SKYEEEE!

    Honestly I have no idea why but you make me laugh the most with your comments! They're just so cute :) I hope you're being patient with waiting for your nails to grow back. The waiting can be a huge pain. Remember to moisturize your hands and fingers daily cause sometimes cracking or splitting can be due to dry nails xx

    Hi Hana!

    Aww thanks for such a nice comment :)
    I really do hope you enjoy your Missha polishes! The bag was still in OK condition when I sent it I wonder what it'll look like when it reaches you? Anyways you can definitely use a quick nail art to make any tips I think it's the easiest form of a non fussy manicure xx

    Cute idea for a manicure. I would go nuts having to wear all black. I love color so much. Oh well you just have to find another way to add it. Hope you can wear colorful nails at least.

    Hi Skye!

    I'm finally back! I feel so relieved to have finished with my exams and new work training too! I've been playing around with my 3D art a lot haha learning new things and copying some cute designs. I'll try to update often and I'll message you sooner :)

    PS. Your nails are at a nice length.. short and sweet!

    Hi Lucy!

    Thanks but I wish that my nails would grow just a little bit more :) I actually have to ask my sales supervisor about the colourful nails but it should be all ok. Black is super boring isn't it? But the place where I work we get 30% staff discount off anything black! So at least there's a positive side to it :p
