Guest Post - Cupcake Nails For My Sister

What I did for my sister ~ My long-term customer.

Okay, I force her to lend me her nails, tempted her with my own cupcake nails.


Polishes that I used.  (Left to Right)

Seche Clear Base Coat

OPI Sweet Memories (this is for cupcake base or any other nail, colour is up to you. On my sister's nails, I used blue green pink and purple pastel colours)

Etude House White Polish

China Glaze Poinsettia

Etude House Gold Mini French

Seche Vite Top Coat


Yay! Success.

Okay, I haven't clean up the sides yet, but nice right.

I think this is one of the first few times that my sister is satisfied with what I painted on her nails. I always did it awfully.


Last picture.  Blurry.  She was too impatient for me to take many photos of my artwork.

Guest Post - Cupcake Nails

I was bored with my nails, since the big ribbons dropped, so I decided to make them more interesting.

I added cupcake and dripping ice cream design to my pink gel base.

This is my first time doing this, luckily it turned out not bad.


Cute.


I did 2 cupcakes for each hand, and all other nails have the dripping ice cream.

Boots Royal Jelly With Extracts Of Pure Honey Moisturising Creme Bath



Description







My Thoughts

This thick translucent gold cream bath has a heavy perfume scent.  I think it smells like honey, which is not to my liking.

Pour out a sufficient amount of bath onto my palm, add water to lather to bubbles and bathe.

After bath, my skin feels moisturized.  It did not heal my super dry skin, but it did prevent it from further drying out.

It comes with an inconvenient screw cap.

KMS Moist Repair Shampoo



 Description

 



My Thoughts

This thick and creamy white shampoo smells like eucalyptus or menthol candy ... yummy.

Squeeze out shampoo onto palm, add water and it will lather to rich bubbles.  Wash and massage hair for a few minutes and it is easily rinse off with water.

After washing, my straighter hair at the back is feeling soft, smooth, hydrated, and looking shiny, tame and flat.  But not on the front portion, where my natural curly hair is super frizzy.  With my puffy hair, I am looking like 'lion king' from the front.

It is upsetting, I really hate my awful natural curly and frizzy hair.

However, after a very long wait, the O'slee Slim Face Medi Deep Clean Mask 70ml didn't arrive at my house, so I went to their web page to check and found out that it's out of stock.  It would be nice if they could inform me that the product is unavailable through email.


My Scheming Pearl Whitening Mask 我的心机 珍珠粉潤白面膜




 






My Thoughts

I do not know why, but I am a huge fan of facial masks.  I love masks more than anything else in the beauty world.

I am loving this Pearl Whitening Mask too.

It comes with a mild perfume fragrance, and is soaked with lots of non-oily and non-sticky transparent white essence, that will not sting the eyes.

As usual, on a well cleansed face and after applying my regular skin care products, I will gently place this paper mask on my face.  It is pretty fragile, so handling it rough will cause it to tear. 

This soft and smooth translucent paper mask fits and sticks on well to the face.  I will leave it on my face till it is completely tried up. 

In order not to waste the remaining essence left on the foil and plastic sheet, I will apply it to my neck and shoulders. After some rubs, it absorbed into my skin, without leaving it oily and sticky.

The next morning, I see a slight oily shine on my face, especially on my nose. But my face is looking brighter, with a smooth and moisturized skin.  My cheeks feel bouncy and firmer. 

In actual fact, I really dislike the plastic sheet that comes attach to one side of the mask.  It is kind of bothersome to separate them.  However, I find that this plastic sheet is unique, it looks pretty with the small square see through holes.

AHAVA Mineral Botanic Velvet Body Lotion


Description




My Thoughts

This thick white body lotion has a very nice floral scent. 

After a few rubs, it is easily absorbed into the skin, without the oily and sticky feeling.

My skin is immediately feeling smooth and moisturized. 

After days of application, this lotion did not smoothen out my very dry wrinkled skin.  But it did prevent my skin from further drying out.
