NOTD

So I originally gave myself a simple deep mauve color manicure because i got super bored at home. But let's just say one thing lead to another (ha ha!)

The color i used was Sephora by OPI On Stage. The Sephora website said this was a grey plum color but honestly in my opinion, the bottle was a deep mauve color, even when applied to nail.. smh..

..then i thought the color looked kind of lonely so i decide to add a pop of glitter using Milani's 3D Holographic nail laquer which turned out looking pretty nice vvvvv
night time with room light on

during the day with no room light
-This is with 2 coats of On Stage and 1 coat of Hi-Res

Products used so far:
Seche Matte as a base coat
Sephora by Opi On Stage
Milani 3D Holographic in 514 Hi-Res
Revlon Extra Life No Chip Top Coat


Then added some black, using Sephora by OPI What's A Tire Jack and scotch tape to tone down the mani


toning down ended up like this.. with me constantly staring at my nails haha i dont even know if its considered a win or fail

MORE OF HELLO KITTY FOR SEPHORA! yay :)
I've purchased two more items from that line in early January to put with the rest of my collection so far. (refer back to post)
I personally have a big thing for mirrors. From big mirrors to compact mirrors, i lovem' all! My sister bought me the Hello Kitty Handheld Mirror for Christmas, so I decided to buy the rest of the mirrors that came with the Hello Kitty line at Sephora. I know it was sort of a waste of money to get so many mirrors meanwhile i have ones that are still usable, but what the heck, leave me be.. :)

**I'm actually going to repost pictures of the handheld mirror that way the HK collection of mirrors are in one place and not scattered in different posts.**

Hello Kitty Compact Mirror

Review:
-This mirror was very cute at first sight.
-You dont quite have to open it up to view yourself on there.
-Very smooth surface, but can be dirtied on first touch.
-This mirror only opens up to a 90 degree angle.
-It's also very quite hard to open. Maybe it's just me but i had to dig my nails in there to get it to open. :(
-Retail for $18.00
Overall:
I would give this product a 4/5 because of how hard i had to try to get it to open

Hello Kitty Bling Mirror
HK face imprint on the inner lid

came with a little black baggy for you to put the mirror in, in between uses
(also with HK face imprint) 

BAM! bling it up baby! :)))

the other side of the mirror with a HK scripted name on the corner
(sorry my camera couldn't pick the name up)


 Review:
-Pretty heavy duty packaging
-rhinestones are tightly glued on all around the HK face (thank God)
-i didn't know it wasn't a compact mirror when i first bought it and yes i was a bit disappointed when i got home.
-This mirror retail for $49.00, which i thought was pretty pricy for a mirror that's not even a compact.
Overall:
Pricey, but heavy duty enough to break someone's head when tossed at them (ha ha!)

Last but not least- Hello Kitty Handheld Mirror (yes again)

Review:
-This mirror can also be easily dirtied on first touch.
-Just like the HK compact mirror, very smooth surface and don't necessarily have to flip to the mirror side to view self, considering that its chrome all over, including the handle lol
-has a jewel print bow which i find so cute
-Retail for $35.00
Overall:
Very sturdy and worth the price. (thanks sis!)

I decided to throw in my TOTD (T-shirt of the Day)!

Audi R8

I've been looking all over the internet for some inspirational drawings drawn by people from all over the world.
I've came across this AMAZING artist named, David Kao, from California, who draws very interesting and realistic vehicles. For those who are artistic, please check out his website. I promise you'll be as impressed as i am. **(The website is linked with his name.)**
 -I decided to give it a try and chose one of his creations to experiment with.

Audi R8
When i first saw this, i thought it was just a black and white photograph of the Audi R8, but i noticed the pencil strokes on the trees in the background and came to realize that this was hand drawn! I was VERY impressed! 

eh, it's pretty off, but i tried (hehehe!)

That's all folks! :)
