Weekend Nails: Furuba nails

As i was trying to paint my nails early last Saturday for the valentines nail look that i was supposed to do, i saw my fimo clays & decided to play with it. I decided to try & i like it that i sported this look last Sunday instead of THIS.

I won't try to explain what is a Fimo Clay anymore since i really feel that i will murder Sis Nikki's fab explanation of it. You can click HERE to read her amazing post. She is the reason why i bought fimo for my nails. Idol ko kasi si Sis Nikki! (She's my idol!) ..hehe

I bought it over at Ebay, click HERE to see it.

This is what i came up with:


Shoot!
Everything looks so crowded (-__-")

My thumbs looks better because it has a bigger space.


I think i overkill-ed it when i put the glitter polish...
Add the fact that i tried to put all 5 fruits on it...no wonder it does!hehe

But it's ok.

Since this is really pretty eye-catching. I was just wearing a black top, my butterfly earrings & my red lips & i don't need any other accessories anymore because my nails, lips & earrings did it for me last Valentines! & yes, i spent it with bf, & he allowed me to wear bold red lips.
w00t w00t!

A couple of girls commented on how nice my nails are & asked what salon i had them done. I told them that i did it & they were surprised.

Now let's get on with the tut:

• Start with a base color. I choose a yellow one. you can also go for a light blue or even white.

• Again, you don't need to use a glitter polish but i did. I used Elena glitter polish then apply it at the top half of your nails.

• Since i am done with my thumb, i will not be needing a 'full-sized' clays for my nails. This is when all those 'imperfect-cut' fimo's come in handy.

• I painted my nails with a clear polish/top coat first so that the clays would adhere to it then i start sticking them to my nails like so

• One by one...

• By one....

• Until everything is set according to my preference. When you work with Fimo clays make sure that you really press them to your nails so that it won't stick out. Often times you have to wait for the polish to become tacky to do so.
  

• Then top it with a top coat. This is must since it has a tendency to curl up.I suggest you continue to press the clays on the polish just to be sure that everything is set.
  

If you don't like the feel of hard edges of the clays, then make the top coat thicker. make sure that it's dry before you start doing any chores at all or else your nails will just be ruined.

I have to say that this is a very fun look, but since i'm not really into 3d nails I don't know if i'll be donning this again. But i guess i will once in a while.

"Furuba" is actually an anime/manga title which is 'Fruits Basket' (フルーツバスケット) ,. I'm an anime-lover & i remembered this one when i was thinking of what to name this nail post. Since this one has a lot of fruits on it so i decided to go for "Fruits Basket" with an abbreviated name for "Furuba" (フルバ) .

Hope you had a great start for your week!

Jaa ne~!
^_^

ps:
Bf gave me a bracelet & a set of lingerie as a Valentines gift...waahhh!
so sweet!


Of course i won't show you the lingerie, but i have to say that it matches my bracelet..hehe
how fun!

Another update, I hit pan on several items on my project pan.
Yay for me!

I haven't finished everything, but the important is I've hit pan on it..another w00t w00t moment for me! That is why i'm trying my best to be able to get myself a Viva Glam Gaga & Cyndi. When bf & i went to MOA last sunday, i passed by Marionnaud & asked them when will they most likely have it. The SA said that maybe April or May...OMG! i can't wait that long!

That's why i'm doing the best i can to be able to get the Viva Glams. I'm not a fan of Lustres, but i don't mind that this Viva Glam is in Lustre finish. I have to have it! hehe

Anyone living in the US sweet enough to help me?
I've been a real good girl
@_@

What a day~!

Today, i woke up with the sound of our dogs barking.

THE END...

Haha..lol!! XD
Just kidding of course...

I have not posted this because i seem to have a couple of post that i need to put yet so this is going to be lengthy.

But i did woke up with the dogs barking, it's because mum was talking to the mailman. I have a package delivered straight to our house. OMG! This is the 2nd time that it was delivered..How awesome!

Mum gave me the box together with another slip indicating that i have a parcel to pick. Yipee!
I immediately tore it open & out came goodies from Miss Yaya. I won a couple of her contest & these are the prizes..w00t! w00t!


Yep, a lot of stuff there. She even sent me the Revlon Fantasy Length in Intensifying. I actually used it today & i freaking love it!!!! I just wish it's available here in the Philippines though.. I sure would love to be able to get some more.


Wow!
My first Korres stuff... it's the Soft Eyeliner pencil in Black. It's really soft..like khol..i guess this is khol since its great. Just like Lancome Le Crayon Khol!


The Pixi palette is awesome. This palette is No.13-Lavender. Packaging is really sleek!See how thin it is. It doesn't take up a lot of space, but it still has a nice selection of colors. I used it today & it's great!

Oh, that's the swatch of the Korres Eye Pencil. Looks good,right?

I love everything! Thanks,Miss Yaya!

My mum asked me to run an errand today (that's why i get to try some of the stuff that I received). I was about to go out the house when Kuya Xend arrived for another parcel. This is turning out to be a good day, i said to myself!

These are what's inside...


More aquazorb towels! I went to Shangri la the other day & went to the Aquazorb stall & asked if they have these (3 in 1 face towels). They said that they don't carry this anymore, so when i saw a multiply seller selling this, i immediately bought some myself. I also included the Cyleina Black Pearl...the one that i keep on hearing good feedbacks.

Let's see if this is equipped to handle my blemishes...
*Acne Update*
Im able to keep my acne from flaring up...I guess my new skin care routine is working! Will post it some day when im sure about it.

Going back, I ran an errand, went to some malls looking for some random things. I passed by 1 store saw a lipstick stand & i bought it so that my babies would have a new home...

& here they are!


It's pink & it matches my case!
& the best thing is that it's sooooooooo cheap...


See that?! it's only Php 66 (approx $1.25)...oh the one on the right is the pack of fimo clay to be used for my nail arts... Yipee!

These are my Fimo clays

I read it from Nikki's post. I have Fimo clays before, but its so big because i use it for scrapbooking so i bought a smaller one at Ebay.

Will do a nail post sometime using these.

Last but not the least, I bought the Neutrogena Wave at Nikki's blog sale. I said i also wanted the Avon Magix Perfector but it was already reserved. She is so kind to let me buy 1 of her back-ups. She included a lot of freebies..Thanks,sissy! i love everything!


& speaking of Neutrogena Wave, did you know that they have an ongoing promo?

Neutrogena is giving a fifty-percent discount for its Deep Clean Foaming Pad refill pack upon purchase of the Neutrogena Wave starter kit from January 28 to February 24, 2010.

This is a good way to experience Neutrogena Wave. I actually like it, I've been meaning to do a review of it.

*sigh*
Today is a bit tiring because i spent half of my day walking..but then with everything that i got, i won't complain!

Well, that's it for today!
Hope y'all have a great day,hunnies!

Jaa ne~!
