Halloween nails

Happy halloween. Be safe everyone! I am not doing much for today. I just added spider webs to my nails with orly ingenue as base that I wore before. It is such a great color I could not take it off. Meh I think it is just an okay mani. It looked better in my head.

Senegalese Twists

I decided to twist my hair again. As fun as playing with my hair, it is very time consuming   every night to pin it up and to take it out in the morning. This took about three/ four hours to put these twists in and I do not  have to worry about my hair for about four weeks. I am lazy. In …

Best Hair Ever! ( So far)

Hair of the day. Best twist out hair yet! Ok.  That is all. I'm too excited. I curled the ends under and pinned it, instead of doing a Bantu knot last night. I was too tired to take a pic of it last night. I will show how I did it in another post. I have not forgot about nails. I…

Orly- Ingenue

One of my untrieds for a while! I do not know why I waited so long. This is amazing color. A pinkish goldish microglitter duochrome. The formula is sheer for the first coat but quickly builds up. The formula is pretty smooth.

Hair addict

I am a little obsessed with my hair recently. Sorry for the many hair posts. *warning* another hair post below: well i tried senagalese twists. Time to put in 40 mins! Also, I made two bantu knots to maybe get the ends curled. Well that did not work. Here are my results. I like the twist …

Milani: Pink Rave vs Violet Addict

Pink Rave is on the left and Violet Addict is on the right. They are both pigmented well. You do not need a lot to get color. I love them both. Pink Rave is a redder based pink. Violet Addict is still a little  'pink'  with blue/purple undertones. Of course I like Pink Rave bette…

Twist Out!

Here is another twist out. I did bigger twist this time to save time putting it up at night. I like twist outs the most. I am trying to find the best routine for defined curls. Next time I will try Senegalese twists where you twist each section individually to make a tighter twist.…

Bantu Knots

I tried bantu knots last night. The results just meh. I twisted the hair and pinned in a circular pattern. It didn't take as long to put in or take out as a twist out or braid out. That was a plus. But the hair is not defined and is just kinda messy I think. Oh well.�����������������…

Notd - lace nails

I used color club : charity ball as base and then migi nail art pen to do the lace. This was fun! I think I will try it again.

Nyx- smoldering

Nyx smoldering. Nice formula. This is opaque in two coats. Nice fall brown color with a little bit of silver micro glitter.

Twist Out on Natural Hair

Here is my twist out. I twisted each section of hair last night and sealed it with a spray of coconut oil and water to keep it moisturized.

Curlformers on Natural Hair

I have not done a hair post in a while. That is because I got a Brazilian hair straightener. I didnt like it because my hair never reverted back to natural hair, so I cut it off. That was about a year and a half ago. My hair grew natural again by keeping it in twists. So, I am…

China Glaze Awaken

China Glaze Awaken is a nice gunmetal gray. This is two coats. The formula is great as well.

China Glaze - Trophy Wife

This is a pretty pink. I love it! Three coats.

Gold tips

These are my notds. Here are some gold tips with revlon gold coin as the tips and zoya helen as the base

Zoya Helen

This is zoya helen. It is a nice neutral color. This is three coats but you can get away with two.

Polka Dot Tips

First try at a dots frenchy. I think it looks pretty cute. The color reminds me of minnie mouse for some reason. It waspretty  easy to do. I will try this again with new colors!
