Sparkled Beauty

Happy Boxing Day, everyone! I love Christmas morning for opening all the presents, and love Boxing Day for all the good deals. Hope everyone had a few relaxing days well spent with family and friends.

Me and the bf braved the mall today after I put through 2 online orders, got some good stuff but wish we had more time to complete the shopping list. As lines were long everywhere, certain deals/ stocks were over by the time we got to the store. But I won't complain, as all in all, it was a good Christmas :)

It's a little late for me to post this, but this is the festive mani I was sporting in the last few days.

Can't take any credit for this, as I had my nails done before I left home, by the same girl that did all my nail art when I was home 2 years ago. You can see what she did with Sally Hansen Emerald City, Revlon Sublime Strawberry, Zoya Elise and Sally Hansen Red Carpet. All free hand, no stamping. Wish I could bring her back here to do my nails all the time :)

I just went in and ask for something Xmas-y and she did the tree, the wreath and the snowmen. The white tips were sponged on to imitate snow. I know she had never seen snow or the wreath IRL before, but she didn't do a bad job at all.

The base for this mani is Milani 3D, the gold colour I always reach for when I wanted something festive. The gold looks a little washed out in this last pic, due to the angle and lighting.

Feels like I repeat myself a lot, but I love all the shades in the 3D Holographic line that Milani did couple years back. Need more of these.

You might or might not notice that my nails here are a little shorter than what I normally sport. 2 of my nails broke deep down to the nail beds for handling the suitcases at the airport at home. It took a while to grow them out.

What has you been wearing on your nails lately? Did you do well with shopping today? Online or in store? Spill the beans so I can envy your scores of the day :)
