Bea A.K.A. Hamham + Tag

My sister and her friend were bored so they decided to play with makeup.
My sister took some of my E/S palettes and brushes out. >o<" The tackle box as well as the eyeliners and other makeup belong to Abby, our quasi-sister hahaha! x)

This is the look Hamham came up with.
She changed her hair color and she also changed the lighting of this picture. :3 Last year she came up with this wonderful idea that she no longer needs to buy makeup and goes through mine whenever she wants to put makeup on. >o<" She only keeps a limited selection of makeup now. As we have different skin tones she can't use my foundation so she still buys her own. LOL!

As she was not satisfied with her look she asked me to do her makeup.
She said she wanted to look like a doll hence, the barbie-like makeup. We both used the Sleek I-divine palette for her eyes. She piled up different kinds of lipstick on her lips. 

A failed attempt at Strawberry mani. x( LOL!

My worn out nails. :/
Yes, those are metallic decals.


This is how cute my sister is. She also sleeps in my bed. :[
She has filled her bed with clothes and other stuff and has realized that my bed is big enough to accommodate her. She also uses my pillows! WTF! :/

NOTD - my first attempt at fimo nail art + tutorial :3

Before you scroll down I just want everyone to know that I'm a noob  at nail art and have no prior experience. I just bought fimo sticks because I thought they were cute. :p And since I already had fimo sticks I thought I ought to put them into good use.

So here's what I did....


These are the nail polishes I used. 
All of the polishes are from Etude House, the brown one is from their matte line, the sparkly-glittery green one is from their LuciDarling collection and I used the Jelly Pop to bind the fimo slices on my nails as well as to coat my nails.


Random fimo slices. 
I got the fimo sticks from Onestop Kikayshop - the seller ships internationally. :) She's also very helpful & replies to questions within a day. Of course I just to ask her a lot of questions. LOL!


I used a blade to cut the fimo sticks. :) The seller recommended that I use a blade because it will give thinner fimo slices. Next time I think I'll use a scalpel. x)


These are some of the fimo slices I used.


This is what I ended up with.

1. I used matte brown for the lower half of my nails.
2. I painted the upper half with the sparkly green polish.
3. I put clear nail polish (Jelly Pop) on the areas I wanted to stick the fimo slices into.
4. I put the fimo slices one by one. As you may notice from the picture I did not follow any pattern. I just stuck the fimos everywhere. x) 
5. Then used the Jelly Pop as top coat. 

I wonder how long the fimo slices will last? LOL!
