Sally Hansen and Face Shop

Hiiiiii. I'm really bored right now and i shall blog about sth really close to my heart -
nail polish. I really love painting my nails! When i first started nail painting, my nails always turned out atrocious and lumpy. I didn't know what was the base coat, top coat, nail buffer etc. But now i'm a wiser person! hahaha
So here's my first blog post featuring nail polish!
I'm here to introduce you my fav
top and base coat. SALLY HANSEN DOUBLE DUTY STRENGTHENING BASE AND TOP COAT. I've tried several other brands before but this is the best so far. Application is really smooth and doesn't form any bubbles, drag, or anything. It's also really easy to remove compared to other top coats. Oh and as it name suggests, it
strengthens your nails and i really feel like my nails are sturdier now. Doesn't break as often as before (hope i'm not jinx-ing it).
So tada. Highly recommend this! It may be a bit pricy for some ($11+ at watsons), but i think it's really worth it since you'd be using this everytime you paint your nails.
Oh and here's one of my favourite nail polish from The Face Shop! It's a really pretty nude colour. It's creamish and reminds me of ice-cream/candy. The picture below took three coats.
This colour also serves as a good base for a french manicure. It's a really sweet colour and the colour is light enough to go over the white french tips. I don't recommend this colour on toes though. It would be barely visible (unless you put your head really close to your feet haha).
One thing i don't like about this is that it takes 3 coats to cover up all the visible lines. And The Face Shop doesn't exactly have the best quality nail polishes so it dries up pretty fast. But i still really like this colour and it doesn't really matter how good the quality is since i'm constantly buying new colours and i seldom revisit my old nail polishes.
So yeap. Hope you enjoyed this silly blog post on nail polishes. Byeeeeeee.

I wanted to go out today but everyone's busy. it's good that i didnt go out though. Am not feeling too well right now.. and it's raining outside. I really love the monsoon season. Feels like fall (for s'pore). Don't you think it makes everything look so romantic?
I'm really lazy to start on hw. AHHH my life is so boring. I don't even know why i'm blogging. I'm just so bored... oh ABCD was ytd! It was pretty fun. Good job and thanks to those who put in so much effort in planning this.
i want my hair to be like that everyday!!!!!
P.S. sorry for the abrupt ending but i feel really sick/awful now

I MISS YOU LIKE CRAZY AND IT'S ONLY DAY ONE So i've been staring at a pretty much
dead handphone today. You're just gone for less than a day and i'm missing you already...
6 more days...
anyway, i'm trying to keep myself distracted. and stop myself from worrying. i'm the kind of girl who worries a lot... maybe so much until you can call me
paranoid or
pessismistic. i don't know. i was never like that when i was young. i would worry about certain things but it's the normal level of worrying. but in recent years i started to worry a lot... most of the time it was unecessary. yea but i really can't help it. it's not like i can stop worrying whenever i want to. the only way to stop me from worrying is to think about other things. so yea
i'm here to blog to distract myself...
oh and i noticed that i've become reallly reaaaaaaaaaaally grumpy recently. especially this year. germ noticed it too and now most of the time she's trying to cheer me up! (when she used to be the grumpy one last time hahahah
) i really have to do something about my grumpiness. i think i'm getting better??
dance today was... refreshing. i felt really stiff but at least im stretched out a bit.. anyway i really like the "i love you more than a nerd loves math class" shirt. anyone selling it?????
oh i shall post up some old pics of germ and i!
byeeeeeeeee. i needa find something else to distract myself.

Don't mind me if I get weak in the knees
'Cause you have that effect on me
The rain is so heavy... it was really hot in the afternoon. A pond is replacing the field outside my house. But i must admit, it feels really cosy when you're home and it's pouring outside. Not that nice when you're caught in the rain though. I do like the fact that there is no sun when it rains, but it also means i cant wear my nice shoes out and must wear my ugly slippers.
take care
would be thinking of you
