Until the Last Petal Falls...

In my previous post I have been ranting about the Nail Stamping Tools that I recently got from Born Pretty Store. I was so excited about my newest tool so I immediately set out and started doing my nails.

First, I still have my latest nails here, which I posted here. This will be my base nail polish for the moment as I am too lazy to remove it and swatch another shade. This will do, as of now :) So after coating your nails with any nail polish of your choice, you are now ready to get stamping.


The stamping plate I will be using now is the Hello Kitty Stamping Plate that I got from Born Pretty Store months ago, when they had a massive giveaway of it on their shop. I was one of the lucky girls who got it. But don't be sad, if you didnt get it, you can still get it for only $2.99, free shipping here. To be specific, I used a simple floral pattern on the plate.


And after a few trial and errors, I finally made my first ever stamping nail art! Its horrible in close up view, but from afar it looks decent enough. LOL. Haha


But here's a close up view of the design. Please excuse my design. I am still a noob at stamping and I am yet trying to figure out how to make the design transfer to my nails better. Its just a matter of trial and error and being patient enough.

Never mind the pinky finger, its a mess :|



Overall, I'd like to say this has been a success ^pats back^. Haha But I am still going to practice more now that I have four metal plates already. Yup, I now have four because a new package came in the mail today which I will be showing in another post later.

Rest assured, I will be playing with my stamping tools more now so that I will be able to achieve better looking nail designs :)

Mwah! Nail Polish in Orlando Blue

Remember this cute nail polish that I got from Watson's at 50% OFF? I have already swatched the first one, and today I'll show the other nail polish. This shade is called Orlando Blue. Lol at the names :P


But in my opinion, it doesn't look anything like blue. It looks ;ike green, or mint green, or any shade of green. Anything but blue. Enough about blue. I have developed a liking for this shade mainly because I love green.


But quality wise, I'd say I got what I deserve for such a cheap polish. Its quite sticky and hard to work with, unless I shake the bottle a million times to mix the content of the bottle.


But still, its green. So I am gonna say I love the shade, but not the quality.


P.S.

I just revamped this boring nails and did a stamping nail art which i'm going to show in the next post :)

Stamping Nail Art Stamper with Scraper and a Lovely Heart Stamp Template-m59 from Born Pretty Store

I am really so focused on my nail art right now. It hasn't been long since I received my 15 pcs. Nail Art Design Brush from Born Pretty Store, and now another nail art stuff came ^_^. This time I'm going to try my luck with stamping because I just bought a Stamping Nail Art Stamper with Scraper and a Lovely Heart Stamp Template-m59 from Born Pretty Store still. Hehe I a so addicted to this site mainly because stuffs there are so cheap, plus its free shipping too. Anyways, this won't be a review as I am only going to let you see what I got, but be on guard as I will be posting next my first stamping nail art.


Stamp, Scraper and Plate

The design might not be that much visible because its covered with a blue protective plastic. Don't forget to remove that before using. Many people have said that the stamp doesn't work because they did not see the protective plastic on the plate :p


And I just realized that the back of the plate can also be used as a mirror ^_^


Anyways, here are ore photos of the stamping tools. Enjoy~

Flower Boy Ramen Shop / 꽃미남 라면가게 / Kkotminam Ramyeongage

After watching Pure Love, I have struggled to find a new Korean drama to watch. And now finally, the wait is over because Flower Boy Ramen Shop has started airing in South Korea. Yaaaay~ Haha I have been waiting for this drama because it stars my newest crush Jung Il Woo, a.k.a. scheduler from the drama series Pure Love. Like I said, it has just started airing and currently there are 4 episodes out. It sucks to wait for a week for two episodes to be available because this drama is shown only every Mondays and Tuesdays. Nah but its okay because its just so worth the wait. I'm loving it already. Although I must admit I dont like the lead girl that much, but as the story unfolds I find the two of them so cute I couldn't wait for a new episode every week. Grrr.

About the drama, I already said that I am already loving Chi Soo and Eun Bi's love team. But then I just so hate the other girl So Yi, she's such a bitch haha. If only I could stab her lol. And oh, another cute thing here is Kim Ba Ool, so cute lah :p

Enough with my rants, I'll just show to you some screen caps I made with Jung Il Woo, along with a few information about this drama ^_^ I hope you watch it because it is really funny and wonderful, trust me :)

Eventually, Chi-Soo goes home to talk with his father. He persuades his father not to send him back to America and in return Chi-Soo promises to go back to school. 

Yang Eun-Bi (Lee Chung-Ah) is 25-years-old and a senior in college studying physical education. She believes that teaching is the best type of job to have. You don't have to worry about getting fired and it's popular with guys. To become a teacher Yang Eun-Bi studies for the teacher certification examination in the Norangjin area. One day, she stops by to see a fortune teller (Kim Hye-Soo). While getting her fortune read she picks out a card with the fate bell ring and kissing. Meanwhile, she goes to the restroom and suddenly Chi-Soo rushes into the restroom. Eun-Bi hears bells ringing, but she already has a boyfriend who is about to be discharged from the army. They met the day before he joined the army and she has waited for him faithfully for 2 years. Yang Eun-Bi tries not to think about the man she met in the restroom. 

On the day of her boyfriend's discharge, Eun-Bi goes to see him, but he has already left. The next day, Eun-Bi goes to school. At the university festival that is occurring that day Eun-Bi sees the guy from the bathroom at the festival. Eun-Bi assumes Chi-Soo is a student at her university. Suddenly, Eun-Bi also sees her boyfriend and one of her schoolmates together. Eun-Bi becomes enraged and throws a water ballon at them. Eun-Bi then walks away and gets into a car which Chi-Soo is in. She pleads with him to drive. After driving away, Chi-Soo parks his car and Eun-Bi begins to cry. Chi-Soo tells her that he doesn't like women crying and lets her get out of his car. 

Eun-Bi decides to focus on becoming a teacher and meeting a good guy. On the way to a teaching session at a high school run by food company Chasung, she meets Chi-Soo again. Eun-Bi assumes Chi-Soo works for the company. She then almost falls down in front of a passing car when Chi-Soo saves her. Eun-Bi, believing he might be the good guy in her future, asks Chi-Soo to date her. Then Eun-Bi sees a bunch of guys wearing the same uniform as Chi-Soo and realizes he is a high school student at the same school where she will intern as a teacher ...
