Nail Color for Boys, Yay or Nay? 男人的浪漫(指甲油篇)

Boys with painted nails
SC doesn't only wear my clothes. Now he wants his nails to be painted too!
This is all his idea, not mine :)
I suggested all black, or midnight blue, but he wanted alternate black and white.
He should've really invested in nicer summer sandals. He should've worn his gladiator sandals! But he's just as lazy as me. Heheheh.
What do you think? Yay or nay?
SC唔單止著我D衫, 依家仲要搶埋我D指甲油黎玩!!!
係佢自己要架, 唔係我迫佢..
我叫佢油全黑, 或深藍, 但係佢要簡監犯色(黑白黑白黑白.....)
佢應該買對靚拖鞋, 或者攞返對角鬥士涼鞋出黎著, 但係佢同我都一樣, 咁懶..
大家覺得點?

I used these colors.
黑與白裝備

Nautical Nails 船船指甲

Nautical Nails
I always love everything nautical. Last weekend, I decided to do some nautical themed nail art, using the easiest way possible, nail stickers.
我好鐘意D同船有關係嘅野. 上星期我整左一套船嘅主題指甲, 用膠紙, 非常方便

Ships, coconut tree, anchors, albatross, leaping dolphins, etc...
Nautical Nails
椰子樹,船,錨,跳跳海豚,雲,信天翁...

Nautical Nails
Basically, cute stuff that reminds us of the beach and the sea.
全部都係同海/沙灘有關嘅野

Nautical Nails
On shimmery navy blue and deep red polish.

I did my toes too!
Considering how easy, how cheap and how good they look, I was pretty happy with the result.
Too bad they don't last long though, the stickers peel rather easily because they aren't fully protected by the thin top coat. Oh wells, just for fun, they're good enough.
腳指都整埋, 用貼紙都方便, 快, 靚, 正. 但係可惜好快就甩..

I used Revlon's 791 Midnight Affair, 745 Frankly Scarlet and the top coat, with a set of nail art stickers I bought from Sasa (HK$16 for a sheet)
我用 Revlon's 791 Midnight Affair, 745 Frankly Scarlet, D貼紙我係Sasa買左$16/張

My Revlon Nail Colors 我的露華濃指甲油

I'm not really a nail color addict (in denial). Most of the time, I don't color my finger nails, just my toes, only in summer. I only buy one odd bottle every now and then...
其實我都唔係美甲粉絲, 大部分時間我都唔塗指甲的, 通常都係夏天先塗腳甲. 仲要塗來塗去都係塗一種顏色..(以前)
Revlon Nail Polish
I didn't realize I have so many!
有一日我囉晒D指甲油出黎睇, 嘩乜我有咁多嘅..

I am stingy, I don't buy very nice brands, normally I just buy Revlon...
我好孤寒, 所以淨係買露華濃..
Revlon Nail Polish

...and they are not even the full price HK$49 or HK$35 ones, I buy the HK$19 ones from Bonjour. Heheheh
買最平個隻, $19

The red hot tamale is my favorite.
最鐘意紅色
Revlon Nail Polish
It compliments my Asian skin tone and it makes my toes look good in summer footwear :)
係夏天就最襯我D膚色啦!

3D Nail Stickers - Pretty & Easy!

Nail Stickers
El-cheapo, easy to put on & super cool 3D nail decor stickers. Excellent for last minute nail embellishment. Just stick them on colored nails with the help of a humble ol' tweezer and finish with top coat. Ideal for girls' night out/outings, because SC told me that most boys hate embellished nails. Oppps. Really?

Nail Stickers
They don't last so long, but it's fun to have something dainty and pretty for a couple of days. I take them off immediately after a day, since I have to prepare baby Marcus' food and I don't want him chewing on pieces of jewels with his congee ^_^'

If you like this and you're based in Hong Kong, these stickers can be purchased easily from Sasa etc. This one cost HK$25 per set.
My nail color and top coat are from Revlon.

Red Roses DIY Nail Art Stickers - Nail Decor Idea for Valentine's Day

Valentine's day.
Ahhh...sweet pinks, roses, red-hot romance...look at this pack of 3D nail art stickers I've found in Sasa!

Nail Decor
A couple of gorgeous red roses and sparkly jewels!

I want them on my nails for Valentine's.

Too bad SC hates them T_T and he doesn't understand why girls embellish their nails (with some super cute, elaborate and amazing gel nail art) when guys don't like them.
Maybe SC should realise that he doesn't represent the whole Hong Kong male population.
Heheheh.

Does your guy hate decorated nails?

Where to buy the stickers? Sasa, HK$18 - HK$20something per pack.

3D Nail Stickers


Because it's the holidays....


Because I felt like it...


Because I just colored my hair black....


Because I saw my colleagues had these on and they look so damn pretty...


Because they are inexpensive and easy to do....
I decided to have this red, silver, roses and crystal nails done.
DIY at home.
Did I take "festive" a little too far? :D

I'll show you how it's done and where to get them next time.

Happy Christmas Eve, everyone!

My Recent Loot


Sale, sale, sale everywhere...what a girl to do?

A recent trip to H&M yielded the above blings:
- Chunky ring, gold frame surrounded by "diamond" studs = HK$39 - 70% off = HK$11.7
- Chunky ring, silver frame, black "stone" = HK$39 - 70% off = HK$11.7
- Chunky bangle, gold frame, white jewels = HK$39 - 70% off = HK$11.7
- Chain cream + gold necklace = HK$59
- Gold chain with floral locket = HK$39

and a trip to Bonjour cosmetics yielded the following nail color:

- Solid black nail polish = HK$8
- Transparent black and glitter polish = HK$8
- Revlon top coat = HK$15

Dark nails in Hong Kong are so now. Even I was tempted enough to go through all of the troubles and did my nails.

Too bad pretty nails and cooking don't exactly mix. Now they are all chipped from all the chopping. Sigh. With pretty nails, I should only "cook" this (if you could call that cooking).
