NOTD: Super Mario!!

I absolutely LOVE old school Super Mario, so when I saw this video by cutepolish on Youtube, I knew that I had to give it a go.
Now I'm not gonna lie, my hands were shaking like crazy - but I'm still really happy with how it turned out!

Heres what I used:

• Kleancolor Pink Sleepers as a base
  
• Santee White on the tips and as the 'dots' on the shroom
• LA Colors Art Deco in Limon on the tips and as the shroom
  
• Beauty Treats in Black for the eyes
• Kleancolor in Clear as a top coat
  

Ugh, I'm dying from the cuteness. I've been staring at my nails all day - and so has everyone else! I've had SO many comments on them, some positive, some not so positive. Buy hey, haters gon' hate! Hahaha.

Some NOTD goodness!

Hey all!
I'm getting so bad at posting my NOTDs every week, so here's a few of them to catch up on!

First up is pink/black checkers:

I used:

• Santee Rainbow Pink as the base coat
• Konad Special polish in Black
• Konad m56 plate
• Hello Kitty bow stickers (only on ring fingers)

Next is my ultimate FAIL, the nail polish I used was this old 90 second set Revlon one... I can't even tell you just how OLD this nail polish is. The only reason I'm letting you guys see this, is because I'm dying to find a good dupe for it, the name is Revlon Tidal Wave. Can you help me, know of any good dupes??

I used:

• Revlon Tidal Wave (failfailfailFAIL)
• Konad Special polish in Dark Purple
• Konad m64 plate

Lastly, we have what my sister named my 'Picasso nails':

I used

• Santee Blue Flash nail polish
• Konad Special polish in Black
• Konad m64 plate

Hope you enjoy! I'm going to try and post a few times this week, I've got lots of reviews coming up, one in particular that I'm extremely excited about, so stay tuned!!

NOTD: French Manicure with Dots!

I bought these awesome dotting tools off ebay - they were only like $3 NZD for a pack of 5! Bargain!! So of course I had to give them a go:

I used:

• Pinnacle French Twist - as a base colour. I honestly hate these nail polishes, they're streaky and horrible. But it worked ok for this.
• Santee White - on the tips. These are my favourite cheap nail polishes. They go on so nicely.
• Chinaglaze Bad Landing - for the polka dots. This is the only Chinaglaze nail polish I own, I seriously want them all now!
• KleanColor Clear - as a top coat. Pretty decent for only $3 NZD!

Pretty cute and simple, and it has stayed on really well! Usually my nail polish chips off within a couple of hours - but this has stayed on for 2 days now without chipping at all - yay!!

Bargain Beauty Buy!

So each week I am going to post a Bargain Beauty Buy - an item so cheap (yet worth every cent) that you simply MUST have!

This weeks Bargain Beauty Buy is:

Santee Plus Nail Lacquer $3.00 NZD

These are honestly, without a doubt, the best value nail polishes money can buy. They come in a HUGE range of gorgeous colours, are non-streaky and go on smoothly and effortlessly. I'm one of those people who is usually quite terrible at applying nail polish (I don't know what it is, but I usually manage to muck it up) but with these, making a mistake is practically impossible.

The three colours I have, from left to right are: M68 Beach Blue (Beautiful turquoise colour), M2 Rainbow Pink (My favourite, a stunning light pink with a tinge of gold in it) and M64 Beach Pink (Bright Fuschia)

You can purchase them at dollar stores around New Zealand, not every store stocks them, it pays to hunt around. You can also purchase them on ebay.
