Week 3 of the Busy Girl Nails Fall Nail Art Challenge. The theme for this week is OXBLOOD.
Base colours used are Revlon's Raisin Rage and CG's Angels Breath. Pictured here is two coats of each per nail, without topcoat.
[Yeah it was on my Instagram a few days ago...]
Cherries on the pointer and ring finger! And little yellow bling studs on the middle and pinky.
I really like this mani and it looks so much better irl than on camera.
Hashtag your nail pictures with #busygirlnails and check out what the other busy girls have on their nails this fall too! Hosted by @BeautyByArielle, @Drinkcitra, @FierceMakeupAndNails, @MrandasMakeup and @Marijonails, I'm loving this challenge and already halfway through it! Excited to know that this one might just be the first challenge that I'll be completing (:
Oh yes and tomorrow's #PolishTogether Birth Stone Series event again! Hosted by @perpetualfunk,
Opal is the theme for the month of October so let's paint our nails a flakie or glitter polish. Spread the word and have everyone join in the fun! Remember to tag your photos with #PolishTogether on Instagram and have a look at what the other ladies came up with too!
Yeap, flakie or glitter polish...can't wait to try out my new polish (:
2. Magnum Pleasure Store
Having lunch with my daddy is always good. Thursday saw us taking a slow drive to Vivocity and we settled for Marche. The wide variety of yummylicious desserts were really tempting but I knew I had to save my stomach for the Magnum ice creams downstairs at The Plaza, right outside Bakerzin at the first level of Vivocity.
Here's a photo of daddy's and my customized Magnum ice creams. Mine had a dark chocolate coating, sprinkled with pistachio nuts, gold flakes and chocolate hearts and drizzled with white chocolate. Daddy's had a dark chocolate coating too, sprinkled with sea salt, nuts and oats (I think?) and drizzled with milk chocolate.
For $7 each, it was a really fun experience to pick all our "ingredients" on our own and watch the staff prepare our customized ice cream step by step behind the counter.
Second photo here shows the process...
Step 1: Choosing 3 toppings from a wide variety of toppings
Step 2: Coating our ice cream (choose from milk chocolate, dark chocolate or white chocolate)
Step 3: Sprinkling our toppings on our freshly coated ice cream
Step 4: Drizzle on more chocolate (again choosing from milk chocolate, dark chocolate or white chocolate)
And last of all (not pictured here), placing the chocolate Magnum logo on our creations and they are ready for my tummy~!!
A short 13sec video of the staff preparing my Daddy's ice cream...
Very pleasurable indeed ^^
