NOTD : Blue Lapis Inspired



I wanted to try something different with my nails today. I've been sporting solid colors lately and I remembered that I purchased the limited edition OPI - Man With The Golden Gun Top Coat.

This would've been even more perfect if the gold flecks were much tinier and refined to actually look like the Blue Lapis stone. The gold flecks looked like tiny islands instead across the blue ocean. Haha :P However, I still love how it turned out. :)

I used these two to create this look. First, I applied it with one coat of  OPI - Base Coat (not shown above). I always have to put base coat whenever I do my nails because this definitely avoids yellowed nails. Also, this also extends the life of your manicure. :) That's basically it! 
I normally put some drying drops after the top coat for quick drying but I ran out. :( 


Have a good day! :)

ibuybeauti

Hello my lovelies!!!
I'm back and I apologize for being away for three and half months. :(

I've been doing a lot of projects lately and literally do not have the time to blog for the past couple months. However, I do post regularly on Instagram, so if you are following me then you know that I'm a regular Instagrammer. ;) 

I am going to thank ibuybeauti.com for sending me some free products to try. :)

ibuybeauti.com is a newly launched Korean cosmetic online shop. 
What I like about this online store is that I actually found some cosmetics/skincare here that I normally couldn't find at other Korean cosmetics online shops. 

Here are the products that I chose:

Left to Right: Tony Moly Luminous Goddess Aura BB Cream, Etude House Wonder Pore Whipping Foam, Etude House Sweet Recipe Cupcake Eyes in Mint Choco Chip
I haven't tried these products since I've been really busy lately. I will do a separate review on them in the future. 


They have also included some samples. :) 

It took about 2 1/2 weeks for the package to arrive from South Korea. 

Their prices are reasonable and customer service is superb! They were very prompt in answering my questions and they also provide free shipping! ^_^

So please check their website www.ibuybeauti.com and let me know your experience when you buy from them. :)

See you guys later! :D
