I painted my thumb and Pinky finger a black colour which has these tiny gold shimmer:)

My Index Finger and the ring finger blood red colour :)
Then paint my Middle finger with a shimmery silver colour.

Step 2:



Starting from the pinky finger get a tape or you can get these french tip nail stencil and put that right in the middle of your nails:)

This step goes for all of your nail except the middle finger...leave that alone.


Note: You can skip this step and just eyeball the next step-this is just to make things easier.

Nail Art : Inspired by Holidays

Hey everyone

Hope you all are having a fabulous day where ever you are….

 As a girl who loves doing nails but is not that great at nail art - when I see other people do their nailart with intricate design I feel so jealous of them wishing to have their talent or to have a budget to go to a professional.

But looking on the brighter side this made me inspired to create a pretty but simple and easy to do festive design.

I love it and thought some of you beginners who find nail art a pain but want to do something different with your nails will enjoy this as much as I did.

Now without further of me blabbering please go ahead and check the nail art out…..AND hey tell me if you like them ?

Nail of the Week & Review -Golden Rose PARIS NAIL LACQUER/ POLISH



First of all guys I am so sorry for being gone -well almost 10 more day to go and 1 month complete….i am so sad …:( I was occupied with my dad work that I couldn’t take time out for my blog…but hopefully now I am back and will be posting more frequently….:)

So let’s begin with the :

Nail of the Week:


        I have seen so many people do these and I adore nail polish so why not pop these in here.

This week I was wanting something chic looking on my nails…and I saw 
“Golden Rose PARIS NAIL LACQUER”  in beige #12 
sitting on my desk…. and it was staring right at me SO why not…...... I got this nail polish from my home country for PKR 125-130 and was not aware of this brand so I was very much nervous but interested to try out.

This is a very beigy nude pinky color close like the one used for the French manicure ,but in two coat you get this opaque beige polished nail look.

Golden Rose PARIS NAIL LACQUER packaging

At the first coat you won’t see a major difference …it come out as a very natural coat of beige but very pretty

First Coat:)

I wanted much more opacity so I applied a second coat and 
was
 impressed.

Second Coat



A very true to its color and most of the time I don’t see that with light colors.

Golden Rose PARIS NAIL LACQUER-quality of the polish

I was a Happy Bird for this week :)

 I don’t know how I didn’t use this nail polish before: 0

Sometimes you can see the nail line but that is not always… its not obvious or irritating. 


Secondly I will say that it can become a bit streaky if you are not careful but that what’s almost all the light color tend to do (or what I have experienced with most of my light colored nail polishes), but when applied correctly its applies beautifully,as you can see there is no crazy streak party on the nail.


Lasting day…..It lasted for almost 3 days…..you could stretch it out till 5 days.

Drying time….1rst coat took 5 mins
2nd coat -10 mins
Total Drying time  20min……and then its smudge proof…:)


And opps I almost forget…..

This is what the brush looks like 

Golden Rose PARIS NAIL LACQUER brush head

nothing to special as I like my brushes to be on the thicker side …
but as this get the job done I have no issues.

Would I Recommend it…….YES.

So have you ever tried this brand out or even heard of before?

 How was you experience?

And did you like this post???

Let me know….and please leave in your suggestion or idea in the comments below

Talk to You all very soon…

Take care you guys:)

DIY-Arm Candy Holder


Today post is DIY idea that was in my head for so long but because of my lazy attitude it took me a while to get along with it.

 Being a jewelry lover that I am; my love for arm candy is even built up more than it used to be, they are just effortless. Simple ways to add a little flavor to your appearance, put on a simple bracelet/arm candy, stacks them all together or just embrace one bold statement piece.
In one word they are very versatile.

This love that I have manage to prolong has made me gather load of bracelet, bangles or arm candy whatever you may want to call it, but it made me make my own bangle/arm candy  holder which I am I proud of and want to flaunt it; so if you even want to know how to make this arm candy holder then keep on reading.




For this D.I.Y you’ll need:

1.   A thread holder i.e. that is cover with thread ( I don’t know the proper name for it but here you can see in the pic below by what I mean)

thread middle section-after the thread is finished
WITHOUT THE THREAD:)

2.      Asoft cardboard paper…i.e. easily foldable and hard enough to be stable like you can use a cornflakes box, tissue paper box whatever you may find in your home or get the cheap cardboard paper whatever suits you the best.

3.      Acrylic paints-color of your choice 

Acrylic Paint


4.     and a Paint brush(of your choice -whatever you can find...but on the thicker side would be better -you can see the difference in the below picture)

That’s about it now let get to the 



Process shall we?!?!


1.      Get your thread holder and soft cardboard paper ready and paint them on with your  chosen color…..the first coat doesn't have to be perfect just cover the whole thing up,let it dry and then apply the second coat to give a flawless application .I promise no matter how wacked it look with the first coat , the second coat will do the trick .....see for yourself.

2.       After the paint dries completely, place 1 or 2 bangle on the soft cardboard to get the perfect fit so that you can easily secure it with a tape.

   Like so...

3.      Now place the soft cardboard on the painted thread holder piece thingy…..

Place the bracelet on the cardboard and the thread middle section

4.      Stack your bracelet/arm candies in your preferred order.

And there you have it, you are finish with your own handmade simple easy to do yet beautiful Arm candy holder.

Niki de Saint Phalle - “Nanas” Inspired Plastic Bag


When I was in studying fashion designing we had an exhibition -in which we had to be inspired by our own chosen artist and design and outfit using any kind of material as we wished.

I chose Niki de Saint Phalle - “Nana's Sculpture.
The bright bold colour just made me attracted toward the “Nanas” and I ran with the idea of using Plastic and Acrylic paint.

Now when I was designing this outfit that you can see below
…..I thought in my head on how this design would look on a bag/pouch/ make-up bag/ “anything you want and can put in it bag"-and as I had plenty of plastic left from my exhibit class I thought why not…let try this ….and I am so glad that I did….because I am in love.

As much as I loved my outfit we all know and can see its not a wearable look (its more or a creative work)….but you can surly use this baby up with anything
 I am really happy with the turn out and hopefully you also found it cute and carry-able.

It goes to show that when you have some creative idea in your mind and you’re not so sure that would it work out….it’s no harm in trying it out and experiment with your imagination it might turn out better than you imagined it and if it doesn't…..Don’t be hard on yourself and keep trying without quitting.

“You can’t always get what you want, but if you try sometimes, you might find, you get what you need”                        
                                           By The Rolling Stones.

Hope you all like this post and found it creative, enjoyable and pushed you to try out whatever the creative idea that is in your head and experiment with it. :) you might be surprised with it too,just like me…..
Take care guys….

Mauh.

See ya very soon.

Vaseline Petroleum Jelly Benefits for Eyelashes and Eyebrows


Are you looking to find a product that is cheap that would benefit your pretty eyelashes and eyebrows then you are at a right place buddy !!

Vaseline Petroleum Jelly is the bomb just for healthy eyelashes and eyebrows -trust me, its a well tried one. 
With applying Vaseline Petroleum Jelly on your lashes and on your brows you are not far from getting  fuller, longer, healthier looking eyelashes and eyebrows  

Vaseline Petroleum Jelly

 Since I have grown up my eyelashes seemed to be not at their best and as I use waterproof mascara it just makes things a lot harder  ,as its difficult to remove than a non waterproof mascara *I use -"Nivea beaute Extreme Resist Volume & 24h hold"- *

Plus as we grow up our body changes and while we care about other physical beauty inside and out .But unintentionally we somehow ignore our lashes which opens our eyes up  and brows which frames our  face so why ignore them and not give them the attention they need :)


Let's begin with the Benefits of Vaseline Petroleum Jelly For our eye area then without me just rambling on and on....


 Vaseline Petroleum Jelly Benefit number 1: 

                           A great eye makeup remover , many people suggest olive oil to remove your eye makeup but I do not know why olive oil just burns my eye like hell and it just doesn’t do the work for removing my eye makeup that well for me.

 So one day out of a whim  I tried out Vaseline Petroleum Jelly as my mother uses it too to remove her eye makeup so I thought why not try it out and I am glad that I did.
 No eye tugging or pulling simply apply small amount of  Vaseline Petroleum Jelly on your eye lashes and brows ,massage on few minutes and then with a tissue paper swipe that bad boy off gently and that is about it .
You will find that you any waterproof hard to remove makeup will get off with what so ever no efforts at all. 


 Vaseline Petroleum Jelly Benefit number 2 :

                              Longer, healthy, thicker looking lashes,within a week of applying Vaseline Petroleum Jelly I should say I started seeing difference which was surprising to me as I didn't expect my lashes and brows to start looking longer by any means.
 Actually my lower lashes *informed* me of them being longer and a tinny winy bit thicker, and that was enough for me to be sure that the Vaseline Petroleum Jelly was actually growing my lashes out!……
and since then I have started with a routine to sleep with Vaseline Petroleum Jelly on and my eyelashes just keep getting softer, healthier, longer, thicker and the same goes for my eyebrows even they are getting  thicker 
 (but hey just an FYI -my brows were never bad to begin with- thanks to my mom she never let me over pluck them even though I wanted to- but she never allowed me) . 


 Vaseline Petroleum Jelly Benefit number 3 : 

                               Make the mascara seem to go on a lot better too, as the lashes are in a good flexible condition which make the application smoother.
                                                                                   +
 Another trick that learnt and that I want to share is  first to curl your lashes, then put Vaseline Petroleum Jelly with a cotton swab or a clean mascara wand.
The reason to curl them and then put on Petroleum Jelly is because it will make the eyelashes a bit flexible and it kind of train the lashes to to go up and hopefully in some period of time the lashes won’t be stick straight. 
. finger crossed.

 Vaseline Petroleum Jelly Benefit number 4 :

                               Don't feel like putting any makeup on what so ever? just curl your lashes and apply Vaseline with a cotton swab or a mascara wand and get thicker looking lashes and this also will prevent you little flirty lashes from getting dry and brittle :)


That is about it you all. Hope you all fall in love with these tricks like I did and benefit from them too.

 Let me know your opinion, give me your input and any of your tips -I would love to hear your opinion. 

 Till then take care everyone. 

 I’ll see you all very soon.
