French Manicure with Gold Sparkle
I have been very obsessed with my DIY nail this week.
This nail design is very easy to create yet give a chic feminine look.
How to create this nail:
1. Apply base coat. (I am using Elianto base coat)
FYI: I used to always skip base coat. But I just realized base coat is really important! It protects your natural nail color.
2. Create the french manicure (White nail polish by The Face Shop)
There are loads of ways to do french manicure. I tried lots of methods but none of them succeed :(
Here's my trick: move your nail instead of the brush. If your original nail polish brush is too wide, make sure you only use half of them. Yuupp your skin gonna get messy but no worries you can use your remover to clean them.
Fyi: this is my first time doing french manicure by myself. Im not using any special brush or tips or etc.
Fyii: the result might not be as perfect as when you're using special brush or tips.
3. Apply the sparkling gold polish (Gold sparkling polish by Etude House)
Dab a little bit at the end of your nail. Make sure you don't put too much because we want to keep it simple. This gold polish is just to give more elegant look and add color.
4. Apply top coat (Seche Vite)
Seche Vite is a dry fast top coat. I love love love this top coat. It really makes my life a lot easier. I used to always chip my nail before it completely dries. That's why I really love this coat
Oil-free face by Laura Mercier
My face is very oily especially in the T-Zone area. That's why I always carry blotting paper in my make-up bag. Recently, I just bought Mineral Finishing Powder by Laura Mercier. I was surprised on how good it is to control my oil. The lady at the shop did tell me that this mineralize powder is good for oily skin. Anyhow, I just never expected this powder could be really good. After wearing it around 10hours, my face does not produce that much oil anymore. Before, I always blot my face after around 4-5 hours. So, I really recommend this powder if you have oily skin like me. I bought this for RM135 at Sunway Pyramid.
The product I was putting on:
1) Foundation Primer (sample, given to me with the powder)
2) Silk Creme Foundation
3) Mineral Finishing powder
