8ty8beauty spree #27 - updates
Thanks for your patience.
yay~ Sometimes it's really a pain communicating with them. As usual, they have lots of orders that's why it takes so long for them to process our orders (even though it's already considered slighty faster than others? ya, i've read elsewhere that they don't even reply!) Of course, i've to keep bugging them to expedite. Yeah, that's why i will tell u that it takes approximately 2 weeks to arrive from the date spree closes. Checking through the quotation and order list plus amendments...etc are time consuming.
OK, enough of my rants. haha! There are a few out of stocks. I will email to those who are affected. If you didn't hear from me mean good news =)
I will update again once the item arrives.
Do join my mailing list if you wish to be notified on my sprees.
Thanks!

Nail Art: Strawberry Nails
I used OPI Big Apple Red and matted it as the base color. Then I used OPI Here Today... Aragon Tomorrow as the leaves. OPI Alpine Snow and a dotting tool helped to make the little seeds. Does it look alright? Would you like to see more fruit inspired looks? Enjoy!

OPI Significant Other Color
As a treat, here is a swatch of it matted with the Essie topcoat. It really doesn't change the color and it doesn't affect the duochrome, it is just not shiny - perfect!

Sinful Colors: Canary Yellow
As with almost all yellows, this polish is really sheer. I actually put this over OPI Alpine Snow (any white base will do) in three thin coats. When you do this it comes out very true to color; it is primary yellow. I really like how flattering it would be on most skintones, as yellows are often not flattering on me. This makes me look tan!
And as a special treat, the picture below is it matted with the Essie Matte About You topcoat! I quite like it mattified! Enjoy!

Nail Art: Roughed Up!
Review - Essie Matte About You
After a long wait, i finally get to try - Essie Matte About You. Before reading on, you might wanna read about the product first from my previous post. Or you probably have read about this product on many websites which is highly raved.
I have decided to apply OPI DS Reserve (DS27) on my nails. Here's the picture
First i apply nailtek foundation II (ridge filling base coat). Followed by 2 coats of OPI DS Reserve. Lastly, one coat of Essie Matte About You. Viola~
You don't have to apply too much, just a thin layer to cover your nails with the matte finisher. It will mattify your nails in seconds. It's really that fast!
If you wish to order, pls feel free to join my spree and get Essie Matte About you at S$14 per bottle! You will not regret. hehe..

China Glaze For Audrey
It took me awhile to get used to the brush as I am now used to the OPI brush, but I applied it okay right? I will be rocking this color often! (sorry about the slash marks, I didn't let the topcoat dry before I hit the hay!)
I will also be on the lookout for more China Glaze, any color suggestions for me? Emerald Sparkle and Ruby Pumps (they are being repromoted later this year) and the Romantiques collection are on my lemming list....anything to add?

Mattified OPI! Post #3
Fuchsia Fling - I love this one matte and glossy. It is such a basic color, I love it both ways!
Big Apple Red - This one is ok matte, I don't love it though. I think I prefer it glossy, although it doesn't look bad matte.
Sea? I Told You! - It doesn't look that much different matte, but all of that glitter still pops through, which I like. It's.....different!
You Don't Know Jacques! - I love this one matte, and I saved myself monies from getting the specifically matte version of this color! This is great both ways!
The picture below contains the same polsihes glossy for comparison. Have a great day everyone!

8ty8beauty spree #26 - updates
after much anticipation, our orders still have not arrive my house yet BUT it has already arrived Singapore as updated on singpost ( 21sep - processing at sorting centre 4.18pm ). I thought that it will arrive today and asked my mum to stayed at home to wait for my package. And she told me my items have arrive. When i looked at my room, how come the box is so small...! then i realized that was my parcel that i've spree with someone else. LOL!
anyway the status on singpost is still the same. I've called singpost to check and she said will call me back to let me know and definitely will not be today. Well, i guessed it's due to the festive holidays that causes the delays (since singpost don't deliver on sunday and PH). So they probably have many backlogs. Oh well, pls be patient.. i GUESS it should arrive tomorrow. hee *fingers crossed*
I will definitely update when the item arrives my house =)
Thanks

50 Followers Giveaway!
Canary Yellow: This is a nice cream primary yellow. I have a bottle of my own of this that I bought a couple of weeks ago, and I love this polish! I will post a full review about it later in the week. It is a sheer polish (like most yellows are), but two coats over a white base and it is true to the color in the bottle! Very flattering for a yellow.

Fixing a Broken Nail
Thankfully it didn't hurt even though it technically went into the quick (the pink part), but only the top layer of the quick peeled off at the edge of the nail. I tried to use super glue and it worked for a few days, but eventually it would break at different layers and it just wasn't staying on. So I cut it. :( Now it looks super stumpy in comparison to the rest of my nails.
I got a little forwarded Christmas money, so I went to go buy the little thing of Qtica because it does hurt when I use the end of my thumb for stuff and I need the nail to grow out over it. Thus in a couple of weeks; you will see a post showing the "Great Qtica Experiment". I am taking pictures of the nail every three days to see if it really helps or not.
Sorry about the rambling story, this is the first time that I have ever even grown my nails out long enough to get a nail break like this. Sigh, such is the life of someone who wants longer nails, right?

Diary Day 1 - Baby Foot Easy Pack (Foot peeling treatment)
I've been eyeing this product for quite sometime especially when it first hit Singapore (Guardian pharmacy) - Baby Foot kit. Well, during that time the packaging is in a form of cube box and priced around $59.90. Saw the brochure and this product is suppose to make your foot peel and renew your skin as smooth like a baby foot. sounds amazing? Find out more info from http://www.babyfoot.co.jp/e/index.html
I didn't buy coz of the price. When i went to Japan, i couldnt find it (it's from japan!!) argh... When i went to Taiwan few months back, i saw a similar product call - BeautyFoot. forgotten how much.. still brand new in my room at a corner and yet to try. haha! I found Baby Foot Easy pack from Hong Kong recently and the price seems very reasonable. around SGD$28... brought 1 box and FINALLY decided to try today.
I thought of blogging this highly raved product and see if it is really that good as it claims to be. Anyway, just by looking at the pictures and description, i'm already 90% convinced that it will work. We shall see.
Day 1:
Here's my foot before the treatment. haha.. as i wear heels quite often, so the middle part got the callus and the end of my feet is very dry and got dead skin.
Here's the socks with the solution inside. just have to wear them and leave it on for 2 hours.
Well, the booklet says my foot my start to peel in 5-7 days time and peel completely in 2-3 weeks. I will update again. please feel free to comment if you've tried. Stay tuned!
Day 5 *Updated 14 Sep 09*
Ok, just to rewind abit... the 2nd and 3day didn't really notice any difference. Yesterday (Day4) i did not check any peelings. Just now, all of a sudden i remember and take a look at my foot. WAH! it's peeling!! woohoo.. it looks a little scary though.. and now my foot is rough. i'm sure there's more to come since it's suppose to peel off everything?
Here's the pictures i just took. **WARNING - Horror Foot ahead! **
More to come! stay tuned =)
