Updates Again!

Hi Dolls!

So many things have been happening in school that I barely have enough time to blog anymore. From doing up a portfolio to acting in a video to attending rehearsals for the school musical, the amount of work that I have to do keeps piling up by the minute. Doesn't really help that I have barely started on any of the assignments that I have to hand up in a week's time too...

But this isn't a place for me to talk about these things, it's a fashion and beauty blog! So talking about something in relevance to this blog, I finally got my gelish nails removed today!

And I must say, I am really impressed with them!

They lasted for almost three weeks without chipping and were still as glossy as ever. The removal process was quite simple too - my manicurist filed my nails to roughen then up before placing a cotton pad soaked in gelish polish remover on the nail and wrapped it up in a small square of aluminium foil. After a few minutes she then scraped off the "wet" polish, leaving behind a completely clean nail. And if there was something else that I noticed as well, it was that my nails looked strangely whiter after scrapping - this I assumed was a result of the manicurist crapping off the stained nail layers along with the polish in the removal process (I had slightly stained nails when I did gelish due to me frequently applying polish). She then took a buffer to buff my nails before finishing off with cuticle oil. The total time taken for them to remove the gelish took no more then 20 minutes I believe, around 10 to 15 minutes in fact.

Paying $28 for a nail polish that lasts up to a month max with little to no chipping and constant glossy shine was the best decision that I have ever made. I'm so going to do gelish again, once I have let my nails have a breather of air that is. XD

Something else that I have discovered today was the makeup brand essence, AND THE PRICES WERE DARN CHEEP!! 


Sorry for the caps but that was the best way I could express myself when I saw the prices at a local drug store I was at today. $7.20 for a volumising mascara, roughly $2.30 for a nail polish? I'm all up for paying such prices for makeup products! They are far cheaper then makeup sold by a local makeup brand whose stand was right next to it! As for how good the products are, I'm not too sure but even if I were to not really like them after trying it out - at least my heart would not ache so since the prices were really affordable! I am totally going back to that drugstore to purchase essence the next time I visit it, really regretted walking away empty handed today!

 Well, looking back on the post - I guess I have babbled quite a bit so I shall stop here for now. hopefully the next time I talk to all of you will be soon!

With lotsa love,
