Update & Manicure of the Week! (finally :p)

Hey everybody~ It has been a while yet again… time is flying by too fast already and the year just started!

Well, I just wanted to make an update on here, before FINALLY posting another manicure of the week – which I haven’t done in like forever since I’ve been neglecting my nails J lol.

For the past year I’ve been making my monthly favorite posts, which no lie have been a lot of fun but a lot of work as well, and to be honest ~ aside from a few nail polishes and lip sticks I’ve excluded, I’ve pretty much posted about everything I’ve owned/ever used. 

Aside from the media category, there isn’t much for me to venture into or write about since I tend to stick to using what I like best, and I’ve already shown all of that, so there isn’t much for me to keep posting about every month. 

So from now on, if I try something new, then i’ll review it in it’s own mini-post and tell you guys about it. Aside from that, there isn’t much for me to share XD Thanks for checking them all out~ If you haven’t seen all my posts they are in the ‘Favorites’ tab at the top of the blog J

In other news, this weekend I decided to take care of my nails for once since I had some downtime. I tried to be creative and do a simple design. I was was pleased with the results as it came out pretty sharp and clean.

I used a combination of base and top coat by O.P.I as well as ‘Black Out’ by Sally Hansen.





I just applied the base, used scotch tape to make a division and painted the top half of my nails ~ when they dried I applied the top coat and voila~!



Hope you enjoyed~ If you try it out lemme know J

Take care,

xoxo SiSi

Manicure of the Week!

Hey guys, sorry I haven't been posting much lately, I don't exactly have anything to say as of now and I don't have time either, but I'll get back to writing more soon~ promise ^^

I actually tried this out last month as well (but this time it's a different design) from the Salon Effects nail polish strips by Sally Hansen.

This particular set is called 'Laced Up'


I don't have much else additional commentary to add since I've already reviewed this twice. You can check out my most recent one here: 

Like I said before, they are great quality and easy to use - which is why I keep using them. Plus, they have the cutest designs that you don't have to spend time getting done at a salon :p. 

Here is how my finished product came out:



If any of you try them out let me know what you think!
Take Care,

Manicure of the Week!

I don't think my manicure of the week classifies as a weekly thing anymore since it's been months since I've posted one :P Regardless, I'll label any nail art / manicures I get done in the future the same just for the sake of consistency :)

I actually tried this out a while ago but didn't get a chance to post about it sooner, it's a part of the Salon Effects nail polish strips  by Sally Hansen.

This particular set is called 'Love Letter'


They are honestly great quality! I managed to keep mine on for two weeks and only removed them because my nails grew out too much, and they were simple to remove: just use regular nail polish remover! They didn't chip or peel off, and were beyond easy to apply. The beauty of them is that you don't have to be ambidextrous to get nice results on both hands XD

Here is how my finished product came out and I was obsessed:



I'm currently wearing another set of nail stickers now with a different pattern that I will write about next week ~ hopefully. 

NOTE: this is not my first time trying them, I made another post about the first time I used them back in February~ http://alittlebitofeverything-alboe.blogspot.com/2014/02/manicure-of-week.html

If any of you try them out let me know what you think!
Take Care,
xoxo SiSi
