A Collection of NOTD

March 31, 2013

I’ve compiled some of my older posts into a collection of NOTD! Hope you enjoy browsing at a selection of nail polish colors I enjoyed wearing!

OPI in Leaf Him At the Altar

This is a forest green with gold foil duochrome. I quite like the color because it’s so unique and it dries super fast! This is in the mini sephora bottle which I think is actually better. I’ve never been able to finish a bottle of nail polish. August 31st, 2012

OPI in Almost Famous

This formula was a dream to apply. No clumping, and dries fast. However it also chips super fast!
 August 13th, 2012

Rimmel Lasting Finish in Pink Bliss

I love the color of this polish. Such a soft and sweet baby pink. The color is true to the bottle, and drying time is fast. Only complaint is that the formula is slightly streaky. I used 3 coats. Aug 2nd, 2012

Sally Hansen in Stoney Creme

This was a picture taken a while back while I was still living in dorms. I quite like this neutral color as it’s appropriate for many occasions. This is 2 coats of polish and it provides an opaque creamy coverage. I’d definitely recommend trying this out for a nudey nail color. July 6th, 2012

NuRy Pink Polish

This is a nail polish I picked up in China last summer. The color is a bright pink with silver microshimmer. It looks really good in the bottle but was terrible to apply. This took me 3 coats! Also, the dry time is ridiculously long. After about 45 mins of waiting, my nails still smudged. About a day after wear, chipping started to happen. A really cute color, but not such a cute application process. July 6th, 2012

Eyeko in Vintage Polish

This is my absolute favorite color for spring/summer. But the formula dried up and it’s so goopy. It was a disaster to apply today and after doing my nails I threw it away. So sad. But the application is so difficult that I figure I can pick up another mint green. June 4th, 2012.

Sally Hansen in Lacey Lilac


A quick nail of the day during final exams!! Takes about 2 coats, thinner consistency. Applies nicely. Very pretty spring/summer color! April 14th, 2012

Essie’s Meet the Parents

This is with two coats. I picked up this bottle at Winners for $5.99.
Here is a compilation of some of my NOTDs using the Tinsel Town collection by OPI. I split the package with my friend and had 8 to play with. See my original post to see which colors I got.

Here's what I found from Ragtag in Japan!! 🤩🤩
I've definitely had my eye on a Dior piece and it's extra special that this design is a Japan exclusive.
I have to say, second hand designer shopping is a lot harder than I remembered! There are SO many stores now, I probably visited 20+ and the prices are not so cheap anymore 🤧🤧
.
A similar card holder from Dior is probably $600 CAD + tax. I got this one for ~$350 CAD. It's in excellent condition but there was no dust bag nor box.

📍 Ragtag, Shinseibashi, Osaka
We made it on the kyo-train garaku by Hankyu and I We made it on the kyo-train garaku by Hankyu and I'd highly recommend boarding this train if you're transiting between Osaka and Kyoto. ❤️‍🔥🌸
No reservations are required and the fare is just the basic fare (approximately $4!) 🚅
Check online for the most updated timetable but the most current is
9:32, 11:32, 13:32, and 15:32 leaving Osaka for Kyoto!
We showed up 30 minutes before boarding and was the first ones for car 5. Car 3 seems to be the most popular for the cherry blossoms!
Forget your eyeshadow palettes! This little single Forget your eyeshadow palettes! This little single eyeshadow from merit is all I need! 💚
I've been using this a lot on my vacation and it stays on amazingly well all day even with the humidity.
I went for a more unique shade but all the basic browns and neutrals are available too!
.
Would you swap your current eyeshadow for this?
