Day 108: THAT IS NOT CORAL......



Another Urban Outfitters polish I picked up called "LOVE LETTER". 

DUFUQ.

The color is supposed to be "coral" (that's how it looks in the bottle) but when I put it on, my fingers look bright neon orange! I actually have a wallet that is more or less the same color (come to think of it, I should've taken a photo with that too....). I HATE WHEN BOTTLES LIE TO ME!
And here I thought I had found the perfect little coral colored nail polish since I don't own any dupes. Sad Loraemon is sad. It's like buying a box of chocolates only to find out it's "sugar free". I'd still eat it anyway, and in the same respect, I'll still use this polish. 

I am horrible at analogies. I hear it's part of my "charm"

GG.

Day 96: Frosted Sprinkle Galaxy



I suck at coming up with names for my manicures =X 
I wanted to experiment with my polishes more since I tend to just use one kind of color and be boring like that. I picked up a couple of glitter polishes from Urban Outfitters the other day and thought it would be fun to try some glitter looks. 

Base color: Lime Crime - Lavendairy 
Top color: Urban Outfitters - Chilly (glitter)
Tips: China Glaze - Lorelei's Tiara 
Top coat: Seche Vite 

Shoutout to Eileen for inspiring me to experiment with my polishes. :)

Day 51: Apothecary jars



I finally found the perfect jar to store my nail polishes! The taller on on the right is where I stashed all my China Glaze polishes. I haven't found a proper use for the small mason jar on the left yet, so for now I just stashed some of my Lime Crime polishes in there. They're so cute and pastel! Some people were asking me if it was a hassle to get colors out of the jar when I wanted it, but when I do my nails, I usually take a bit to decide what I want to do. So I usually end up just putting all the polishes on my bed anyway. The jars just give them an aesthetic to my living space and I really love it because they're so colorful and pretty.

It's the details that make a living space fun and joyful. For me, I love putting pretty much anything on display for me to look at. Even if it's not the most convenient of things, it doesn't matter to me as long as it looks pretty.
