It's Movember!

Hiya dearies!

It's "No Shave November" or "Mustache November/Movember" and I thought this would be the perfect time to share some cute studs I received from KKCenterHK! (*disclaimer)...

 Colors Used: Rimmel - Black Satin, Daisy Nail Lacquer - White Diamond, Sinful Colors Nail Art - My Day and Bad Chick

I free-handed my designs using stripers and dotting tools.  The suit is a lot easier than it looks (mayhaps it's time for another tutorial?).  After completing my polish designs I topcoated.  I then put a dollop of nail glue in the place I wanted my mustache stud.  With some tweezers and a little fenagling, I applied my stud.  Easy peasy!

This mani makes me feel sophisticated lol.

 For those who don't know about Movember, it is Prostate Cancer/Men's Cancer Awareness Month.  Prosate cancer is a major killer for men in recent years.  Both my grandfather and father were diagnosed with it.  Thankfully my father's was discovered early (via my mother's persistence that he go to the doctor).  Unfortunately my papa wasn't so lucky.  Ladies, please encourage the men in your life to go and get checked.  What will be a momentary uncomfortableness for him could possibly save his life.  Love to you all!

Until next time!

KKCenterHK Halloween Decals

Hello, dearies!

Today I have another Halloween mani to share with you.  I used some water decals that I received from KKCenterHK...

 Colors Used: Sinful Colors - Hazard, Julep - Evie and Trina

I started by sponging on a sunset gradient and then I went to work and the spooky design.

Did you know that there is a difference between water decals and nail tattoos?  I had no clue! Unlike the temporary tattoos that many of us played with as kids, these decals are not sticky on the front, a bit of a surprise for me lol. 

 You wet the back of the paper with water  and rhe decal will slide off.  It's very thin and tears easily, so I recommend using tweezers.  Again, since it's not sticky it is easy to adjust the decals in just the right place.  Once I had the houses and witch in place, I used a black striper polish to free-hand/fill-out the remaining fence and ground area.  I then top coated with Color Club Clear (my current fave).

I really love the way this one turned out!

KKCenterHK Plaid Bow

Good morning, dolls!

I have a couple of product reviews to share with you today :)  First up is a product that I received back in June.  I tried it, took photos, edited them and then never got around to posting them *slaps hand*....

Isn't this bow super cute??  I decided to stick with the "Burberry-esque" design and I really love the way it turned out.

 Now, as adorable as these are, I have to say I had a hard time making them stay on.  Because it's such a large bow, there is a lot of exposed free edge (as you can see above).  I tried nail glue, but after about an hour I snagged it on something and it popped off :(  I think when I re-use them again, I'm going to put them closer to my cuticle so that they are more secured in place.
