Chanel design nails!


My first attempt at a set of Chanel design nails! Quilted french black tips with the famous double C logo painstakingly hand painted by me using gel. Hehe.

This is a set of sculptured acrylic extension, nail colour painted with gelish (gel nail polish).

Some floral lovin'

Can't get enough of these hand painted floral designs... Love it love it love it! It's a pity my left hand cannot paint flowers. SOB.



Nail design from Nail Max! I'm loving the colour combination here. Soft pink shades with pink and purple roses. Awww. Oh and this is Miyake Wong's nails. And yes her skin is flawless and she is still pretty without makeup. JEALOUS MAX.





Nude peach color french tips! YAY! Finally I have some decent nude gel colours. :D

Painted scallop lace on the french line.

2011 Las Vegas Weekly Awards!


This past Wednesday I was invited to attend an event held by the Las Vegas Weekly, a weekly magazine here in Las Vegas. I was selected as the recipient of the 2011 'Best Blogger' award in the 2011 Weekly awards!! SO exciting!! :) Of course, since I was going to the event, I had to do Las Vegas Weekly nails, so I used one of the copies of when the story about me was in the Weekly last May to work into the manicure. (I was a tad overzealous in getting spare copies to keep, so I had a few issues to spare :-P) Check out the blurb about the award here!

Forgive me for not including my thumb in the picture- I swatched another color over it without thinking before I got around to photographing it. Stupid me. For the texture in the background, I transferred bits of the original article using alcohol onto the white background, then painted the Las Vegas WEEKLY logo over it. :)



My name on the big screen! :)

I used American Apparel Cotton as a base, with Claire's Stiletto for the red, and American Apparel Hassid for the black. Topped it all off with two coats of Seche Vite top coat.
