"School of Kawaii"

So I wanted to do something cute with a gingham print. I'm not in love with the yellow/ orange color I picked, actually I do love it, but I should've done a more consistent color scheme. Oh well- still super kawaii ^_^



They are just hand-painted on full cover glue-ons. I realized the trick to make a good gingham pattern is to use more sheer polishes, and pick a polish only slightly darker for the intersections. I learned something, and that's what's up ^_^

"Unique Haul"

So....I grew up on thrift and dollar stores. (poor!) Here's some stuff I found on my trip to Northeast Unique:













So yeah- $18 bucks later, a shoe purse (the light-up Sketchers Twinkle Toes is PERFECT!), some crafting supplies, a plush Tinkerbell, and a bunch of cute toys. GOOD STUFF! Can't wait to go back!

"Hime Valentine 2"

Hey guys. So a couple days ago I was all flustered running around getting errands done before work and broke 2 corners off my nails in a cab door! :(
Not to worry, it just meant I got another excuse to re-do my nails, plus I needed a fill anyways.
Voila!


I wish my camera could show more of the blingy-bling but this is as good as it gets. I <3333 doing nails like this! Super cute, super kawaii, super gyaru, even. After filling my clear tips, I used Sally Hansen Diamond Shine 320 Must Have Iris and L.A. Colors BCC 555 Silver glitter towards the tips, then lots of sparkly blingy junk!The 3-d heart in the middle came out way clearer than I wanted (supposed to be pink acrylic) but it's all good. ^_^ 

AND- I made this necklace:


Because I <333 Ariel. I'm going back to sleep. See ya!

Better lashes!

Hey blogger, I was just writing to express how happy I am that I found good lashes to use!
I had been looking up all these gyaru tutorials and been doing great eye makeup for a while now, but when it comes to falsies, I have a lot of trouble on some days. My left eye tears us tremendously on some days, so it ruins my bottom, WATERPROOF eyeliner and shadow, and I couldn't figure out why until I googled it, and someone said that something must be irritating my eye. My natural lashes are obnoxiously curly so I always have to use a stick to push em down. Some days are better than others, but today I decided to try another kind of lashes, AND to cut them down so I don't have them so far on the corners. Worked like a charm on the first try!


Here's what I used to use:

But I think they were irritating my eyes a bit. They're pretty stiff but super cute and very dolly. 
But that's okay because I switched to these:


And these feel much better. They looked really long and dramatic in the store but wearing them they are way cute. Today was a good day! ^^
