Revlon Nail Art Moon Candy #220 Milky Way Swatch

I love nail art. I really enjoy painting my nails, it make me calm, but lately I barely have time to really do my nail, since my 2 years old son demand more and more attention, never ending houseworks and so on. If you are like me or you're busy with working but still want to have pretty nails with simple effort then..... you'll love this kind of nail polish <3


The design look like a pen 
and they already pair the color 
So if you're in a hurry or on traveling this would be a great alternatives

This one I took indoor with artificial light

This one taken outdoor 
Revlon also put the number 1 and 2 as step 
1 is a dark gray color 
and 2 is hologram chunky glitter with transparent base 
(I'm bit struggling to get the glitter out)

The drying time is perfect 
so from the start to finish  
I think it took me around 15 minutes 

Perfect <3 <3

What do you think?
What's your favorite nail polish when you're in hurry? 

Thanks for reading

Etude House Bunny Nail Swatch and Review #2, #3, #4, & #5

Etude House.... here e go again ... this summer they also come out with cute bunny nail. For nail lovers check this out!!!


Ain't that cute??? 
The cap of the bottle looks like bunny's ears 


BUNNY NAIL #2
They gave you a simple nail art idea at the back of the box 

The black polish isn't regular nail polish 
I mean it's not come with regular brush but
it's nail strip brush
and the other one is nail glitter consist of circle and bunny glitter
and the brush came out to be spatula made from rubber plastic. 


 My nail art result:
Not very happy with the result
The bunny's ear keep sticking out 



BUNNY NAIL  #3

The pink one is regular brush 
and the silver is nail strip brush 

My nail art
I love how girly this pink nail come out <3



BUNNY NAIL #4
Same like #3 
The red color is brush and the gold one is nail strip 

 My nail art
You'll never go wrong with red and gold <3 <3
The red color is the perfect red that suit every color tone 


BUNNY NAIL #5
The minty green is brush 
and the gold glitter came with rubber spatula 


My nail art 
It can be so messy while doing this nail art, but 
it worth it, the glitter so amazingly sparkling. 

This set is my most favorite from the bunch. 


If I put the order of my favorite would be 
#5 (the green set), #4 (red set), #3 (Pink set), and #2 (black set)


My thought about this product...
1. I love the packaging so so cute. It looks good to put it on the table for a display (yeah that's me... I display my nail polish collection on my table :p  )
2. If you're new to nail art, this nail kit so handy, kinda give you a really quick idea to get a great easy nail art
3. The nail formula is perfect and dry very fast. 
4. My only complain is the nail strip, in my opinion it's too short, I prefer longer, and second is the price... I think the price quite high for this kit. I bought mine for 225 NT (Original price 250 NT got membership discount) 



What do you think of this kit?
Would you like to buy it?

Thank you for reading

Etude House Play Melting Summer Nails Swatch #237

Summer Summer.... I love summer 'cause I can wear bright nails color. <3 <3 <3
This summer Etude House also launch 11 new shades, 3 of it are glow in the dark.

So.... right into the swatch... these my nails over the weekend


2 coat no top coat
taken with artificial light 

2 coat plus top coat 
taken outside, natural sunlight 




Day 3- still going strong <3 <3 <3
2 coat plus top coat 
taken outdoor natural sunlight 


This is the photo on their web, which I think 
is misleading, in their website the color more on Pinky side.
In real life it's has more orange in it and brighter than in web's photo. 


#237 is very unique and rare to find 
It's a bright coral color almost neon 
The glow in the dark is not working for me,
I guess you need special lamp for it. (like in da club)
The formula is perfect, I can reach opaqueness with just one coat 
Drying time also very fast. 

In one word... I LOVE this color <3 <3 <3


Happy MONDAY!!!
Thank you for reading 

XOXO

Aritaum World Glam Coating Tint Review and Swatch #LAS VEGAS

I'm adding up my Aritaum's collection :p
ARITAUM 
World Glam Coating Tint 
LAS VEGAS


Swatch on my hand:
Las Vegas is a cherry red tint
the color is brighter than the color of the cap 
It may look intimidating with this bright color but 
it's "user friendly". 


Swatch on my lips
First pic is my bare lips with only lip balm 
second pic is I applied one coat at the center of the lips then dabbed 
Third pic is one full coat, applied with the wand



What I love about this color is you can create 2 looks with this tint
the casual one or the stronger look. 
The formula has a fruity scent and pretty strong 
The tint is glossy, and creamy, but not sticky at all. 

Check out my other review for Seoul and Bali here


Thank you for reading 
XOXO

Innisfree Nail Polish Swatch and Review (#52 & #18)

It's been really a long time since my last post :p
Time really flies...... Anyway... since April 2014 Innisfree opened its first shop in Taiwan (*yeahhhhhh).

Visited the store last week and of course.... 


This part of display are really appealing for me <3 <3 
Really love how they arrange the nail polish rack <3 <3
Love the bottle packaging too, it's simple and chic. 

So I bought 2 colors #52 and #18 

All of the photos are taken outside 
using natural sunlight 

I'm using 2 coats of each, no top coat

#52 is minty green color 

#18 is teal blue color 

The brush is big and flat. 
This kind of brush is my fav

Overall, I really love this nail polish 
The formula is perfect not too runny, drying time also really fast, 
it's pigmented (I can go just by one coat). 

The only complain that I have....... 
I think it might be only or Taiwan's store.... 
They stick the product detail and nail polish number at the back of the bottle 
but the sticker quite big and long so it stick from top to bottom, so when I open the cap, 
I ruined the sticker.... and it make the bottle looks ugly... (Crap!!!!) 
and the sticker is so hard to remove.... 
Really love the bottle design but the STICKER ruin it all!!!! 


Anyway.... I'm so excited with the store, there are also lots of products that 
I want to try

Have you tried this brand before? 
What's your favorite product from this brand?


Thank you for reading

Shu Uemura Tint in Gelato Swatch and Review #AT03


Matte lipsticks seem in trend this year, but matte lipstick only look beautiful on smooth lips, so if you have dry lips you might have to pass this trend..... 
Recently I bumped into Shu Uemura Tint in Gelato lip and cheek color, and fall in love with this product

The packaging is so simple and chic. 
I like the fact they make the tube slim and sleek 
It's easier to organize and carry in make-up pouch 

The brush. 
I don't really like this kind of brush, 
for me it's kinda hard to find right angle to apply 


Swatch on my hand
The orange color seems intimidating 
but it's so pretty 


 Swatch on my lips
I think the brush pick too much product on it, 
so I just put some of tint on center of the lips then 
use my finger to spread it. 

What's make this product so amazing is the creaminess of the formula, yet it dry up as matte.
It's so creamy that's it didn't dry up my lips, not sticky at all 
and has no scent 

Really blown away with this formula 
Love everything about it except the brush.  
The price is quite expensive (I bought it at 800 NT), but it's worth it. 

(this tint also can be used as blush, but I haven't use it since I prefer
powder blush)

Have you tried this product? 

Thank you for reading 
XOXO

Nature Republic Creamy Lipstick Swatch and Review #11



Lately, I'm so into pink coral lip color


Then I came across this product, picked no 11. 
Too bad I don't know what's in 3 Non Added Formulas



When I saw the tube it's remind me of Innisfree product, the difference only 
at the bottom, NR place the color "sign" at the bottom of the tube and have the number or
name of the lipstick inside the tube.

Swatch on my hand

It's Pink Coral color 


Swatch on my lips 
No shimmer or glitter on this formula
the finish more on satin finish.  




I really love this product <3 <3 <3
love the color, it's pigmented, creamy and glide easily and smooth on my lips
didn't dry out my lips 
It has slight scent of mango (nice scent) not too strong 
Staying power standard 
For this line they have quite lots of variance (If I'm not mistaken they have 17 or 20 choices) 
Bought mine at counter for 480 NT (the price also affordable) 

Thank you for reading 

XOXO
