shoes

Lately, I have the urge to buy a lot of shoes/sandals. I think during this summer I have bought about 8 pairs of shoe wear . The other day I wanted to buy the shoe boots above but ended up not buying it because I needed to save up.

I feel like doing a video on my shoe collection but I really don’t have a lot so it might be useless =S

Oh I dunno. We’ll see. I can just picture it being an absolute nightmare as it’ll probably take a lot of time filming it and tidying it back up haha.

30 day blog challenge

I’ve been wanting to blog for awhile now and when I say blog, I mean I want to write about things besides beauty related posts. I remember I used to love blogging. I would use to blog everyday about my day and other things. But lately it’s become like a chore. Frankly, I don’t want to feel that way about blogging so I’m going to start with baby steps by doing the 30 day blog challenge. This will hopefully get me into blogging again. I’ll probably start the challenge on Friday because I will be doing something interesting that day. It’s a shame I don’t have back-ups of my old entries from my old websites since 2006 up to late 2008 / early 2009. I would love to import all my old posts on this website. Never mind. I’ll start fresh starting this Friday.

Eyeko Nail Polishes

Eyeko was kind enough to send me these nail polishes more than a month or two ago. I think it’s about time I talk about these on my blog since I love nail polishes and nail art and maybe talking about these products would motivate me to do my nails in the next few days.

So the first polish in the picture is Vampira, it’s basically black with fine red glitters which is really nice as it’s not just plain black. I love black nail polishes. Personally, I think it’s a sexy colour to wear on the nails. For me, when it comes to black base nail polishes I like to wear them with short nails just cos they look much nicer. I had to apply two coats of the polish because the first coat was just too sheer and I could still see my nails underneath. It dries fast but not a glossy finish because of the fine glitters but that can be resolved with a top coat.

Next is Saucy, it’s a bright red polish. Perfect for those that likes to wear bold and seductive colours. I personally don’t like wearing red polishes. I had applied it with just one coat and as you can see in the picture one coat is already enough to cover the whole nails and apply evenly.

Coral, is a polish that is perfect for summer especially when you’re going to the beach. It screams “fun”. It looks even more nice if you got a tan.

Rain is one of my two fave polishes from Eyeko. I love this colour. I’ve been finding myself wearing this all the time. I like how it looks on my nails. It’s like a pale blue colour but with grey undertones. Weird description but that’s how I see it. I feel like it’s a great colour to wear all year round.

Posh is a nice pale brown colour that looks sophisticated and this is one of my faves too. I like how I can wear this polish with any outfit that I wear.

  • Overall, the polishes from Eyeko are of nice quality for an inexpensive price.
  • They apply evenly with just one coat except for the Vampira polish which I had to apply two coats but even that wasn’t enough.
  • The smell of the polish isn’t as strong as some of the other brands which is good.
  • The packaging is cute.
  • It dries up really quickly especially since one coat of polish is already enough.
  • It stays on for about 5 days to a week on me until it starts to chip.
  • There isn’t a wide range of colours available. I hope they’d expand their nail polish range and add more colours.

Philippines Haul

skitched-20100515-201934

These are just some of the things I got when I went on holiday in the Philippines. I didn’t get to buy a lot of things because I actually don’t know why. I was tight on money. I only had about 40,000 php which was equivalent to £550 pocket money. I basically spent a lot of my money on food. The stuff shown in the pictures were from my last minute shopping because I thought to myself I cannot go back home (to England) empty handed. So I went crazy shopping in Mall of Asia and Robinsons mall (Malate). I did buy a few things when we first arrived in the Philippines but I didn’t get the chance to take a picture. I aim to record a PI haul video tomorrow if I have the time as I’ll be cramming yet again for my assignment which is due in less than a week. Oops! Anyways, stay tuned for that video.

my tumblr

Hey all! Just wanted to let you guys know that I’ve been blogging and posting pictures/videos on my tumblr account lately. It’s meant to be a private page but I’ve been posting there a lot so I thought I’d share it with everyone. It’s more of a personal page. I’ve decided that I should keep this website mostly about beauty & fashion and I’d post more personal and private entries on my tumblr. If you want to follow me on tumblr then here is my link – http://lovextiffy.tumblr.com.

See you there!
