I wanted to try the 3D acrylic nail art when I was having my medicure and pedicure session last week, but my pedicurist said it’s not suitable for me since I practice yoga and I handle my kids a lot. I need to have nail extension since my nails are not long enough, so I will have to learn how to type with nail extension as well. LOL!
After some consideration, I dropped the idea. I should have done this for my wedding. I love nail art, especially those that I found from Japanese magazines. If I’m one of those sui lai lai (a rich man’s wife) who doesn’t have to type a single word, or turn on the faucet of the vessel sinks, or take care of her kids, than I will go ahead and try it. But how about yoga? I will definitely break my nail extension and that is very painful! Just imagine your nails being pulled out or broken abruptly, how will you feel?
So, I admire Jolin who can dance so well with nail extension and 3D acrylic nail art. Her nails are always pretty.
I heard about this TV series, The CW’s Gossip Girl, but it was only minutes ago that I got some sneak preview of how good the show is. Frankly, I hope that the DVD will be here soon so that I can grab a few and watch the whole season. I don’t think we will get the series being aired here soon, but maybe I will check out the books when I go to the book store again.
If you are a fan of the Gossip Girl, you can check out the MySpace Fan Page and be be part of the fan’s club. But if you have no idea what am I talking about, you better check out those You Tube Videos and get to know more about Gossip Girls, if not you are outdated!
This post is bought to you by Gossip Girl Series on the CW network.
I take 2 cups of coffee a day because I don’t sleep much. Without coffee, I will be walking like a zombie and I can’t drive at all. I will be too sleepy to concentrate on anything, so besides my morning cup of coffee, I will take another one in the mid afternoon to boost myself up.
Coffee is great for skin since it’s rich in antioxidant, but only when you are taking it moderately. Too much of coffee will dehydrate your skin since it is diuretic. On top of that, you will lose your quality sleep too if you take too much of coffee, and everyone knows how important sleep is to promote beautiful skin.
Another thing to take note is what type of coffee you are taking. I don’t like plain coffee and I always take mine with sugar and cream. Excessive sugar may not be good for our health too. Too much of it may promote diabetes, so I will have to watch out my sugar intake as well. If you are interested to know more about diabetes, check out Kosmix.com. Sometimes, we tend to care too much about our appearance and forget that health is more important than our looks.
So, I better stick to 2 cups of coffee per day and not more than that.
I have been reading lots of magazines about makeup and skincare, but I seldom get makeup book because I’m not sure which to get. Besides, I hardly wear makeup, so I will most probably be reading the book and keeping it away later. But if you are looking for some makeup books, check out the Top 10th list (but there are only 9) of makeup books from About.com.
But if I would to get one, I will choose those books from Taiwan or Japan. After all, Asian women have different features from Caucasians. So, it will be easier for me to imitate if I would to try my makeup skill on my face.
I’m so tired. I know that I will look dreadful tomorrow morning but I cannot go to sleep yet. There is so much work to do and I cannot possibly get them done in 2 days. I feel so stressful now.
If only I can go for a nice trip to the Palaceté de Cázulas, which is a Spanish mansion for rent. I fell in love with its beauty the moment I set my eyes on the photo gallery. You would like to go to this place too, if you have a look at how pretty the place is. It is not only a nice villa for holiday, there is a chapel where you can use it to hold your wedding as well. If I’m not mistaken, I think this is the chapel being featured in one of the famous Taiwanese series which were starred by F4. It looks so familiar!
If only hubby has more free time for traveling, there are so many places that I wish to go. It’s really boring to be traveling without him. No point admiring the beauty of this place by myself. It’s one of the romantic place to be visited by couples. Who knows? We may repeat our wedding vows there.
I went to get my nails painted with some nail art a few days ago. I love the design since it’s really sweet and and simple. But I have been wearing my silver pumps lately and guess what, the nail art is smearing! I thought it will not happen since it is dried, but maybe due to the friction between my toes and the shoes, the nail polisher is coming off.
I put on my slippers every time I go for pedicure and be very care not to smear the artwork. I have got used to painting my toes and I will feel weird if they are bare. But since some of the toe nails are smeared, I will have to remove the nail art soon. I can’t just go out with some ugly toes, can I?
So, if you are wearing pumps like me, just make sure that you don’t have nail arts on your toe nails too. But if you have a tip to share with me on how to prevent the smearing from happening, let me know. But one thing for sure, if I always on a pair of Reef Sandals, I don’t have to worry about getting my toe nails smeared! So, I will get one once I get bored with my old slipper. I thought of getting a pair of Reef before I went to Bali, but I guess I must have forgotten about it when the date was approaching.
But never mind, I can always get a pair for my pedicure session next time.
I have been reading a lot of reviews and saw some recommendation from the makeup artist on how good the lip balm from Kiehl is. I’m very interested to get one since everyone complains that the lip balm from Clarins is sting, I have to look for other alternative. When I went for my foot spa just now, the lady had also recommend this lip balm. Wow! All of them made it sound like it’s so good, I have to get one and try it out.
But there is not outlet selling Kiehl’s products here, unless I shop online. However, I’m a bit reluctant as I would like to try the oiliness and see how it smells like. So anyone had tried the lip balm before? What’s your rating?
Do you know why I love to collect skin care samples from the cosmetic counters? I have always curious about how effective those new products are but if you ask me to buy the full size of the skin care, it might be wasting my money it the product doesn’t suit my skin. On top of that, I travel quite frequently and I prefer to bring along those sample bottles or packets of samples which are not space consuming. After all, I can just throw them away once they are finished or my luggage is too full of the things I shopped.
Let’s just say that I love Freebies! Not only beauty products, but makeups, baby stuffs, clothes and etc. Anything free is great! If you love freebies too, you better check out That Freebie Site which is a place to get legit free stuffs and you don’t have to refer to anyone or sign up any deals to get the freebies. It sounded too good to be true? You won’t know how good it is until you check out the site.
So what do you think about getting a beauty box? I desperately need one to store all my beauty stuffs. They are messing up my dressing tables!
I have been managing multiple blogs for so many months and sometimes, I wonder why I am going so far to have so many blogs. It’s not about the money, even if I have to admit that the $$$ factor is very attractive. But I will be happier if I see something like this:
I’m one of those lucky people on earth who is born with a higher metabolism as comparing to women at my age. I can eat a lot, but hardly gain those extra pounds. In fact, I had just taken a big bowl of noodles at 3am before writing this post. But that doesn’t mean I won’t gain weight, it’s just that I don’t get fat easily.
But if you are looking for a better way of shedding off your weight without running the treadmill for hours every day, you may try the Diet Water from XPLC. It is formulated to increase the metabolisms with thermogenic response of zero carbohydrate, zero sugar and zero calories. If you are taking this drink with a well balance diet and some exercise, you will be losing weight faster. Beside, it comes in various flavors like pomegranate, mango guava , kiwi lime and strawberry banana. At the same time, there are various products that you can consider as well, if you are only interested in gaining more muscles.
However, please bear in mind that not everyone can take the products. I’m a breastfeeding mother, so I have always been extra careful not to take any supplement without the permission of my doctor. Any pregnant or nursing mother is not advisable to take any dieting or muscle gain products. Besides, if you have some medical condition, don’t take these products as well. To be on the safer side, consult your physician and get his permission first. If the answer is no, then just eat and exercise healthily.
