Hey guys! I’m blogging at Hongkong so isn’t this awesome??? :D

I went to H&M and the ladies market last night and I practically went crazy. I bought quite a number of things for cheap! Because the Singapore H&M just opened on 3 Sept and it was crazy! The queue is insane because we have to queue to get in, argh. Lots of security guards to and only a few people are allowed to go in at a time. Kinda retarded because the store is going to be there for at least a few years so stop queuing people! Lol.

Haha excessive rant, lol. Anyway I removed my gelish mani because it chipped on me last week so I peeled them off even though I know it isn’t nice haha!

Good morning!!! I’m still in bed, hahahaha! I hope you know I’m that awesome because I could still do a blog post when I’m half-awake!

American Apparel Hunter is a luscious deep dark army green. This is such a perfect deep green and it’s great that it doesn’t look close to black. It’s so perfect for Fall!

And, I must applaud American Apparel for creating gorgeous colours for their nail line! I’ve no idea how fantastic their colours were until I decided to try them by ordering from the site. (Yes.. It took me close to 8 months to swatch this colour haha!) No issues with formula and look how shiny they are even without a top coat! I also like the names on their polishes, very simple but yet have a punch of their quirky taste for names.

I got the nail sets that they have on offer and I ordered the ‘Earth Tones’ pack. I believe it is still instock! I’m definitely re-purchasing the other sets as soon I have the extra cash! ;)

Cookie Nail Art Design

So this is my second challenge that is requested by my scuba diving senior, Eleanor for a cookie design! I searched online for inspirations and I saw this photo which is so cute! I re-created this design so here it is!

I’m going to do a step-by-step tutorial :)

1. Paint a chocolate light brown base colour on all your nails except your ring finger which will be blue.

2. Add chocolate chip cookies by using a darker brown polish! Don’t do all dots, try random shapes and sizes!

3. Draw in Cookie Monster’s eyes and mouth!

4. Add wacky eyebrows and eyeballs

5. Lastly, add a topcoat and you’re done!

I did a variation on my left hand and added Elmo! I know Elmo doesn’t fit in the cookie theme design but I just thought it would be cute to add him in :)

It looks very thick but after adding on a topcoat it’ll smoothen everything out!

And voila, it’s done!
