Purple Reign + Party of Five Glitters

These few days I've been changing my mani so often thanks to the increase of my untried, which I can't wait to get them tried! Most of my recent NOTDs are from the polishes that Gia sent me. :)
Well a few days ago, I did another purple (I love purple lol) manicure.
I used Pure Ice Purple Reign and WnW Party of Five Glitters.
Purple Reign is a kind of mauve-y dusty purple with gold micro-glitter, so pretty!

I have to apologize for my dry skin, I'm going through this... um 'phase' where my skin is always dry and peel-y no matter what I do. It's getting better now! *cross fingers*

Milani Totally Cool with CND Sapphire Sparkle over. Totally gorgeous. Oh and stamped with some bundle monster plate. I was a total goof and I didn't remove the clear protective plastic and I was trying to 'konad' and was like, why doesn't the image show up whole? Then realized it was cos' of the plastic lol silly me

And today's NOTD
(sorry phone pics, I can't find my camera!)

I used Elianto Novy Blue and Love Your Nails (that was with the big box package I received) in All That.

Nail spam!

Well, so I've been missing for quite some time, so here is some nail spam to make up for it. :D

OPI Pamplona Purple with Nubar Purple Glitter over.

V day mani (excuse um, dry skin and cuticles ): )

OPI Rising Star


OPI Ink

OPI Over the Taupe


Orly Lollipop and Orly Snowcone

I can't remember what I used for this, but if I am not wrong it should be H&M HK Pink Metal (White dots are done using OPI Alpine snow)

OPI Ate berries in the canaries and do you lilac it with Black Shatter over ;



Essie Turquoise and Caicos

Hope you enjoyed this one! :D

NOTD: Glitter Gradient Bomb

So hey, happy Chinese New Year everyone!
My manicure for the festive celebration is a glitter gradient, and I absolutely love it! I was inspired by Japanese nails, how they're always so glittery with rhinestones (at least from what I saw from the Japanese nail magazines!)





I used OPI And this little piggy... for the base, then made french tips with some dark pink foil polish from The Face Shop, followed by China Glaze Fairy Dust somewhere slightly higher than half the nail and China Glaze Nova applied a little thickly on the tips and slowly worked my way up the nail. Most of my rhinestones have fallen off by now (Day 2 only!) because either my nail glue sucks or I can't take care of them good enough hahaha oh well.
I hope you like this mani as much as I do! <3
