Hey Guys, I just uploaded a tutorial on how to get this look on Miranda Kerr. I loooove her makeup all the time but I wanted to recreate a look that she wore recently at the Emirates x Qantas event in Sydney. I really love the gold/bronze eyes. These colours are very flattering on blue eyes, but brown, not so much :(. However, I did my best to recreate the look the best I can with what I got! (haha)</div>

Hey guys!! I have an exciting post today (well, for me!). I have been wanting to try a foil manicure for ages, as in the actual decal ones. I haven't found any I really want, however. I saw that Layla Cosmetics does the mirror effect nail polish, however it is really hard to access in Australia, not to mention the large price tag. Ok onto the pictures and how I did it!</div>

It turned out really crinkled, but hey, it's inevitable with alfoil, right?</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And this is what I used! So you put clear nail polish on your clean nail (I just used a top coat), then you cut a square size piece of alfoil to fit over your nail. Then you get the scissors and score the edges (once the base coat of nail polish is dry otherwise the foil moves around). Then you liberally apply the top coat over the foil to seal it in. Next time I am going to try and get less wrinkles.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Easy! I will post a tutorial on YouTube next time I do it, I just didn't know how it will turn out this time.</div>

Hi everyone!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For all you Aussies out there, I wonder if you have noticed the new Ulta3 stands at various chemists. They have a full range of beauty products now! New lines of nail polish, eye shadow and other eye and face products. To my shock, they have such a great range of lipsticks!! They have a matte and a cream collection, in which all shades are very wearable and colourful.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here's a picture of the packaging. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYEn3ncfNkM6LIPA5w_8F0gxnJt9AqGNOeCXnYS1jGdqu0apvOlboTMt0xJ7VeIIMuDX3thvQiu2EY_K4gMl_MpJj9OPT3mBityPCGJ4bWIYWaS-rsaqDLr0S6MKjeWlMyei_g7vKG3EU/s1600/ulta3+review.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="265" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYEn3ncfNkM6LIPA5w_8F0gxnJt9AqGNOeCXnYS1jGdqu0apvOlboTMt0xJ7VeIIMuDX3thvQiu2EY_K4gMl_MpJj9OPT3mBityPCGJ4bWIYWaS-rsaqDLr0S6MKjeWlMyei_g7vKG3EU/s400/ulta3+review.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So, the matte shades are in the matte packets. They are Orange Crush and Harem Pink. The shiny packet has the cream shade, which is Forever Fawn. These lipsticks remind me of the NYX ones!! I picked them up hoping that Ulta3 would be the new NYX for us Aussies...haha. It could potentially happen because their range is getting bigger and bigger! Now onto the swatches and review.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQPSUo-i6MMIxFj7OVGpY55BxUmo4fJfWgtsS-aJ3in1jlpzqHwW0X9V-A0LhyulB2BDqzYvTjCNl88i6inm7UkIluZLmOsgdr4es0mJz7p-7C7v0KztB5jf4BPrUnx4uwdoCP1ac2kzs/s1600/ulta3+swatch.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="265" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQPSUo-i6MMIxFj7OVGpY55BxUmo4fJfWgtsS-aJ3in1jlpzqHwW0X9V-A0LhyulB2BDqzYvTjCNl88i6inm7UkIluZLmOsgdr4es0mJz7p-7C7v0KztB5jf4BPrUnx4uwdoCP1ac2kzs/s400/ulta3+swatch.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
These are the colours: harem pink, orange crush and forever fawn. Now these lipsticks are $2.99 each (I think, or there abouts...I don't have a receipt) ANYWAYS SUPER affordable. You can see that Harem pink and Orange crush are the matte shades, while forever fawn has a gloss to it. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
These lipsticks apply well. They are very pigmented for the price. The matte shades, however, go on a little sheer but then they can be built up by applying more lipstick. All in all the pigmentation is ok once you have enough product on your lip. For the cream one, you do not need to apply much at all and the pigmentation is very good. It feels very light and moisturising, which is unlike the matte shades. ANDD they smell nice! Yay!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
In my opinion, the C<b>ons</b> are:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
- not very good colour pay off in first application with the matte ones</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
- the colours aren't true to the little tub at the bottom of the lipstick</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
- the matte colours are a little dull</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>Pros:</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
- excellent price</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
- they don't smell cheap like the NYX ones, they have a sweet smell</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
- they have a good range of colours and finishes</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
- they last a long time (After these swatches and showering once that night and once the next morning I could still see the colours on my arm!)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
All in all I am quite impressed with this product. I wish I swatched the testers a bit better in the store though, because I don' think I could have picked up Harem Pink and Orange Crush because they turn out to be a little dull. I think I will most certainly get some more!</div>

Hi Everyone! So I went to my nearest Priceline this week looking for some makeup and nail deals and I came across this stand of Savvy by DB polishes. They were $2.99 each. At first I thought they would be bad quality, but I bought them anyhow because I saw some Aussie bloggers post some good reviews about them. I bought the yellow which is called Pina Colada and the gold glitter which is called Ginger Ale. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
These polishes are fantastic! Such a good formula, very pigmented and has such a fast dry time. The yellow in the pictures is 3 coats, which I think this polish would need generally as the formula is a bit on the thin side, but still works great. I can't wait to get some more - any Aussies reading this should go to their nearest Priceline and stock up because these stands are getting a little empty!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Also, for you Australians, Priceline is now stocking Essence. Unlike Target, their stands are always stocked. Yay!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Here we have a geometric print made by the colours from the Nicki Minaj OPI Collection. I used Fly for the tips, Pink Friday for the middle triangle and Did it on 'em for the bottom. I decided to do an accent nail on the ring finger with Metallic 4 Life.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This design was done with tape. It was my first tape mani and it turned out ok!</div>

Hiya Guys! </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I was surfing youtube today to see what nail art designs I could do and I came across this one. The youtube video that I was inspired from is here: <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D5mCpkb9J2g&feature=g-hist">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D5mCpkb9J2g&feature=g-hist</a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I used Wet n Wild Bite the Bullet for the base, with a matte topcoat on top. For the yellow I used Chi Chi Walkin on Sunshine. For the orange I used Misstaken by Missguided. For the blue/green colour I used Essence Viva La Green. Lastly for the red I used Essence Fame Fatal.</div>

Hi!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I recently purchased the lot of 21 Bundle Monster plates because I wanted to do more stamping. I think that they have very different and unique patterns on each plate and so far they have worked well!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is some stamping I did the other day. The green/blue colour is a polish by The Face Shop and the gold polished used to stamp is by Nails Inc. I will get the colour names and post them shortly. </div>

I bought the Nicki Minaj collection minus the shatter on eBay as OPIs are really expensive over here in Australia - $20 per bottle- so I buy them online. I wanted to do a mani using one or more of my new polishes because I was so excited, I don't even think the collection is out here in stores in Perth yet.<br />
<br />
Here is a half moon mani using Opis Pink Friday and Did it on Em. It was my first time doing a half moon mani, and I looked up how to do them properly and people on youtube were using the file reinforces as guides for the bottom. I didn't have any of these so I used french tip guides which were really fiddly. I gave up and did the rest free hand.<br />
<br />

Mostly because I haven't done a mani worth posting...Anyways, Essence has come to Australia, and is available in Target stores. Yay! I was so happy when I saw the stand but it looks like other people had got to it first as there was hardly any polishes left.<br />
<br />
Along with Viva la Green, I also bought 'Where the Party At?' and some nail tip guiders, hence why I did a french mani. Considering it was my first time using any sort of guide I think I did an okay job but it is a bit fiddly and will take a while to get used to.<br />

A few weeks ago I did a tiger print mani in an effort to start doing more nail art again. I used OPI Austin-tatious Turquoise and a black nail art polish by BYS. I only have one photo but I hope you like it! :)<br />

One thing, sorry people for not posting for aaages, I've been really busy with work and uni :( but lets get to the interesting stuff.<br />
<br />
Nothing else I can say about this polish, except that it's like liquid gold, but silver. In Aus, Chanel polishes are $38 so a purchase like this doesn't happen very often, but my boyfriend surprised me with this because he heard it was limited edition. haha yay.<br />
<br />
All of these were taken under artificial light...and sorry about the messy edges, I was rushing, I couldn't wait to get it on my nails!<br />

The application was a breeze, but it's always the drying time that gets me down with Chanel polishes. When I painted them, I was doing other things so some nails got a bit dinged but when it dries they seem to go away.<br />
<br />
I think I have found my favourite polish...I LOVE IT! It's not chrome, its not metal, it's still shiny and it has glitter particles in it. Ahhhhhhhh blinded by its beauty and the pics definately do not do this justice.<br />
<br />
What do you think?! I think I'm going to have to get Peridot that came out in the same collection before it leaves the stores!Polished and Dustedhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04262810676904553828noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3479375178630580890.post-3616306799105279732011-07-19T06:04:00.000-07:002011-07-19T06:05:09.255-07:00Help!Sorry I haven't posted in a while, I was in Melbourne for a week and when I got back I was working full time. I have lots and lots of polishes to show you! I got some in Melbourne and also some from a swap I did with Dolly (<a href="http://adayinthelifeofdollface.blogspot.com/">http://adayinthelifeofdollface.blogspot.com</a>). She sent me some amazing polishes I was so happy when I was opening them it was like Christmas morning unwrapping all 20 of them. I shall post them shortly.<br />

Another post for tonight, as before the last post I hadn't posted in 10 days! Lazy me!<br />
<br />
Anyways, I've always tried to do french tips with sticky tape. I gave up with the tape after a while, it got too annoying and kept sticking to my other fingers I had just done and it came off. So I used a nail art polish with a skinny brush. It's not perfect, but it's my first time!<br />

My top coat made the accent finger run :( My left hand accent of some kind of animal stripes looks so much better (minus the smudging thanks to the top coat) because when I was doing my right hand, I hadn't figured out the pattern I wanted to do yet before I put a random stripe.......idiot!<br />

It is really too pink...or maybe I just don't like pink!<br />

Here are some swatches.<br />

I painted my nails this colour in the afternoon and the lighting was dull. Then my bf and I went to the shops, where there's bright lights everywhere, and BAM they were so bright...I felt kinda odd. My bf hated it! haha!. I have work tomorrow...I wonder how this mani will go down on my 4th shift haha...<br />
