Blue-Green



I can't figure out what colour this nail polish is so am just going to refer to it as blue-green. Close enough, right? Anyway, a couple of months ago i learned about skin undertones and how they determine the best shades and colours for us in terms of clothes, makeup, jewelry and of course nail polish :) I found out that i have cool ' deep winter' undertones. Jewel tones, icy pastels and silver jewelry should look great on me. Here's the thing, I tend to gravitate towards silver jewelry so that was no surprise, and i get complements whenever i wear jewel toned outfits, go figure! This topic is quite interesting so i'll put up a post about it with regards to the colours i have in my nail polish collection.

Moving on, i have completely fallen in love with blue nail polish. My last post also features a different shade of blue! Right now, this blue green jewel toned nail polish colour is my favourite. I've actually had for months...probably bought it at the beginning of this year but only used it for the first time a few weeks ago. I completely forgot i had it! I need to find a way to display my nail polishes so that i can see each and every one of them.

Code blue

I used this vibrant blue colour from charm max yesterday. Its not the shade i was going for but i like it.





The thing with Charm Max nail polishes is that they have no name or number describing them. What i really liked is the fact that the brush has enough bristles such that you only need to dip it once in the polish. It picks up enough polish for the entire nail. I also liked that i had to do just one application. Great opacy i'd say! Oh and i don't have a top coat in the pic.

 I've used a different shade of their blue before as seen here.


I clipped my nails again yesterday. Short nails rule! :D

Orchid

The 2014 colour of the year is Radiant orchid which is basically a lilac-inspired hue. Think deep pink-vibrant purple or fuchsia-purple. Since i don't have that particular shade (yet),  here's what i'll be rocking on my nails in its place.




Like the Emerald hue last year, this color is about to be all over the place. Get ready to say hello to pops of pinks and purples everywhere you look!

Tuxedo nails

I came across this tux inspired mani and knew instantly that i wanted it on my nails. I just added black nail polish to my already white nails (see previous post). Very simple and eye-catching.

Mod White

Its been one week since my last post and am happy to be back. I hope to share with you what i'll be rocking on my nails a lot more frequently. So, here i decided to go for a mod, clean-looking, white mani.



I think the length of my nails here goes very well with the white nail polish giving off a crisp look that i doubt i could pull off with long nails.

Happy Valentine's Day!

9 months. Thats how long i have been away from here. Moving along, since today is Valentine's day, am going to share with you whats on my nails right now...



Yep. Red nails. Nothing fancy. Keeping it classic. I've shown this mani before but here it is again. I used Luron nailpolish this time round.
Hope you all have a fantastic day!
