Halloween nails - part 1

Halloween is just around the corner and what's better to match celebrate this day with ghostly nails? 


I really like how the ombré turned out. I used black, dark blue and a baby blue polish. Then i topped it with China Glaze Fairy Dust. The orange on the middle finger is Papaya Punch by China Glaze. The owl and pumpkin are hand drawn using acrylic paints.

Seafoam Green Ombre Nails

I finally did the seafoam green ombre nails that was requested by a follower on instagram ages ago! And I'm in love with it! Makes me wanna go for a beach holiday somehow! 


Anyway, I painted my nails a coat of white before using make up sponge to do the ombre. This way the colours will be more vibrant! I used silver turquoise green & a dark green for this look. Then I topped of with China Glaze Fairy Dust, always work well with ombre nails!

China Glaze Peachy Keen & Houndstooth nails

China Glaze's Peachy Keen is one of my favourite orangey coral creme polish. I use it so often that I think I might need another new one! It's one of those colours that mak eyou happy. =D



I've always been a fan of houndstooth pattern and finally I get to do one! I'm pretty pleased with it!

Catrice Petropolitan

I'm in loved with this gorgeous deep green from Catrice! I love minty greens and I hardly put on dark greens but this!!! I love!!! It has tiny blue-ish sparkles in ot which makes it so pretty! Two coats with no top coat.


Then I added gold chevron tips using Sally Hansen "Golden-I". Total match! :)

Purple glitter gradient

I have been really busy these days! Sorry for not posting much. Here's a very simple purple glitter gradient nails. I used Essence Ballarina's Charm & The Faceshop PP409.

Vertical chevron nails

It's chevron nails again! This time I did vertical chevrons instead of horizontal ones which I think is pretty cool too! I cut little chevron stripes using a patterned art scissor and sticker labels. Labels work better than scotch tape cuz its easier to cut.


I used China Glaze "For Audrey", Essence "L.O.L" and OPI "Designer... De Better" for this mani.

Neon & Glitter

I think it's super cool to pair glitter polish with neons! Here I used Sally Hansen 'Celeb City' with China Glaze 'Flip Flop Fantasy'. I hand painted the black stripes at the french tip and used black striping tape for the chevrons. Striping tapes make everything look neater and polished, and it doesn't require steady hands!

Watercolour nails

I can say this is by far my favourite mani! Its simple, cool and sophisticated! It looks difficult to do but its really simple! First, I paint my nails with Sally Hansen 'Celeb City' (glittery silver) then i start to dab blue, purple and white randomly on the nails. Top it off with sparkly glitter like China Glaze 'Fairy Dust' and top it off with a fast drying top coat (I used Poshe). You can add rhinestones to glam them up! That's it!


I used Sinful Colors 'Skinny Dipping', 'Pragmatic' and a normal white polish.

Army Nails

1st July is Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) Day (also known as Army Day) so I did an army uniform inspired mani! It's easy to do and the only tool I used is dotting tool! 

PS: Sorry for the reflections from my light!
The colours I used are Kiko '347' (dark green), Love & Beauty 'Mint Menthe' (light green), OPI 'Over The Taupe' and The Faceshop 'BK901' (black).

Man of Steel Nails / Superman Nails

Since I did the Despicable Me mani earlier, I thought I can do a Man of Steel inspired mani! I'm loving the dark shimmery blue 'George Blueney' by Catrice. I hand painted the "S" logo using acrylic paint and it took me so long! Not exactly happy with it but it still look like "S" !

Sailor Nails

Love this blue polish from Catrice called "Shopping Day at Bloomingdales"! Decided to go with stripes, dots & studs for this mani and it turned out a little of sailor inspired nails!

When cotton candy meets black & gold......

Black & gold have always been a very nice combo but how about adding them to something more subtle like a light coral/salmon colour? YES!!! 


I used "Cotton Candy" from Orly, a black polish from The Faceshop and "Golden-I" from Sally Hansen. Decided to go with a black accent on the ring finger outlined with gold colour to make the mani more outstanding!

Playing with nail studs

Loving this mani! Studs look so cool on the nails and add some character on them. I used Catrice "Mint Me Up" on my index and pinky and China Glaze "Concrete Catwalk" on my middle & ring fingers. 


"Mint Me Up" is such a gorgeous minty green color (thanks to Stefanie!) with tiny gold shimmers and "Concrete Catwalk is a dark grey creme. The square & round studs are both 3mm and I added tiny gold beads to make them look like a chain/necklace.

Dots & Holo

A very simple mani playing with my dotting tool. I used Color Club "Cosmic Fate" and China Glaze "Below Deck". Love how the holo dots contrast with "Below Deck" !

Studs & Leopard prints

This is what I came up with while trying Kiko nail polishes that was sent to me from Germany! Got to thank Lisa for sending them to me! I used #387 (teal) and #359 (orange). I love Kiko nail polishes! The consistency is great, not too thin nor too thick. Opacity is good too especially the teal colour. I added round 3mm metal studs to my nails and thought it looked kinda weird so I added the leopard prints and  I really like it!

Green & Blue Dots & Stripes

A very simple nail art with contrasting colours. I used GR701 from Etude House ice cream collection, "Shopping Day at Bloomingdales" by Catrice and "Celeb City" by Sally Hansen.

Purple Ombre Tribal

My first attempt on tribal nails! I had fun painting them but I have to admit it's tough! My brush wasn't the best but I try my best to make it work. The design was inspired by @coewless on IG. 


I used 3 shades of purple: Light (Eleanor "ENP078"), Medium (Sinful Colors "Pragmatic") and a dark purple with glitters (China Glaze "C-C-Courage"). I used acrylic paint for the tribal design and top it off with China Glaze Matte Magic top coat.

Sugar Skull Nails

Sugar skull nails are so cute! They made the usual scary and cold skulls into something more fun and colourful! And I used fimo canes as my sugar skull eyes (inspired by @nailedbyjasmine on IG). Such a great idea isn't it? My base colour is "Unicorn" by Sinful Colors, the silver is "Celeb City" by Sally Hansen.
