1 WEEK NOTDS'

Hi all! I miss blogging, I've been busy this week because my kid started going to school...Anyway, I have lots of Notds that I wanna share with you guys, the first photo is my entry on polishhoarderdisorder weekly challenge, it was fun for me to participate on her weekly challenge, the theme is analogous, e.g yellow, yellow-green, green
In my design I used sponge technique in diagonal pattern, then stamped it with konad m70 on the cuticle portion and konad m81 image plate on the tip..
Analogous Mani



I like this pink shade nail polish,very opaque after 2 coats, some pink shade nail polish make my hand appear a bit dark but this one is perfect for my skin tone. I also like the tiny glits...The bottle is very cute too..The one thing I don't like in this nail polish is rough finish.

konad m78

The difference between the two nail polish. The nail polish in the left side picture has tiny blue rainbow glitters.. But it is not very visible here in the pix.

"Democracy at its Best"

Hi to all! Today June 12,2010 we are celebrating our 112th independence day here in the Philippines! Congrats to our newly elected President Benigno Aquino III! Btw today's mani is very patriotic, I submitted it to weekly challenge of polishhoarderdisorder check her awesome blog, I love reading her blog cause there are lots of interesting things you will also like. I enjoy doing this mani, when you look at my previous post, this is the first mani I did.. But as you can see in the picture. I added some modifications.. In my thumbnail, I drew an image of the Philippine flag, in my index, middle and pinky fingernails I used sponged technique, then I drew the 3 star and a sun emblem,I was inspired by the rapper/singer Francis M. I knew everybody knows him, especially when you're here in the Philippines, and in my ring fingernail I applied white base coat, sponged it and drew a yellow ribbon which is the president-elects' symbol, and "Laban" which means "Fight" in English language.
Hope you like it! God Bless you all!
MABUHAY!

Explanation of the Flag
Each part of the Philippine flag has a specific meaning as follows:

The blue field stands for common unity and the noble desires of the Filipino people.
The white triangle with equal sides of the flag is symbolic of equality among men.
The white field stands for purity.
The sun stands for the gigantic strides that have been made by the Sons of the land on the road to progress and civilization.
The eight rays of the sun in the triangle represent the first eight united provinces that revolted for independence - Batangas, Bulacan, Cavite, Laguna, Manila, Nueva Ecija, Pampanga and Tarlac.
The three stars in the triangle stand for the three major geographical divisions of the country which are Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao.
The red field symbolizes the eagerness of the Filipino people to shed blood in defense for their country

Tie-dye Surprise + bling challenge + another geisha inspired

Hi everyone, I received my prize yesterday which came from UK...This is the prize that I earned on fairy theme nail art contest .. It came from Leanne of donotrefreeze... Actually the contest took place last April, but the prize only arrived just recently. Anyway, I tried using them and here is the outcome. This was the first time I used nail art foils.. and I love it! :)
Pros: I love how shiny it is. And the color is very nice too.. You can wear it by itself without any nail art to go with it. The appearance is amazing. Perfect for special occasions.
Cons: Unavailable here in our country. When you apply it some part is missing .It chips and doesn't last long. Its cohesive property is a poor.
But generally, l like nail foils.
