HAUL - Orly, China Glaze, Sally Hansen and Nail Dryer





Finally my quest for perfect nail dryer has ended. I was looking for nail dryer that could run on battery as well as electric cord and I found it finally........at sally beauty supply. Works great but little bit pricey. But I am happy as I would not be wasting too many batteries. Saving money and environment :o)

Orly Sweet color collection has vibrant, candy inspired pastels. I wanted to get all the colors, but my bad luck only few were available. So I bought gumdrop, snowcone and cotton candy. The lippies that came along with it, has good texture and quality. Perfect to put it in your purse for touch ups.

I was quite late to buy china glaze up and away nail colors, but finally got one. And lastly, the best nail polish collection ever according to me, the Sally Hansen complete manicure collection, I got my So Much Fawn color. Previously, I did blogged about how much I loved this collection. Read Here

Share your haul girls !!!

Whenever I wear any black and white nail design, people do compliment or ask me where I got it done. So if you want positve and appreciative attention, TRY THIS OUT !!!

Easy Zebra Nail Design

You Need:
Any Black Nail polish
Top clear coat
Konad Image Plate M57-Zebra print
Scrapper and Stamp
White special nail polish of Konad








I am feeling black and white today. So what could be best but trying zebra design on nails. I have seen lot of people doing this design with nail brushes, I choose to do it in easy way. :o). Konad nail kit is one of my favorites among all nail art accessories. It has made nail designing a very simple and easy job for any girl next door, who wants to get those professional nail design at affordable price. I would recommend this product to anyone who has short nails or long nails. Works great on any type of nails. The only downside is it only works with those special nail polish. Although I have heard you can also use chrome nail polishes with it, but I have never gave it a try. Will see, soon I would do nail design using Konad and chrome nail polishes. Till then enjoy this.

Peacock Nail Art

You Need:
Base coat - Orly Green With Envy
For Nail Marbling Effect- China Glaze Make an Entrance/Shower Together
Dots-Savvy Orange Overload & Sephora Cab Fare
Art deco or Stripes in Yellow
White nail polish - Dotting tool or toothpick 














If you ask me which is my favorite bird, I would definitely say Peacock. Look at the mesmerizing colors in his feathers. It is hard to capture those colors by using nail polish, but I tried my best. The tough part was getting the base ready. I did marbling effect as a base or canvas on my nails in order to resemble the colors of peacock feathers. The items used for marbling effect are listed above. If you are unaware of what nail marbling is, go to you-tube and watch related videos. They are interesting and very creative. 

Save these endangered species by not buying products made from feathers or fur. Also try to avoid leather products as much as possible, mostly jackets.

Comment and share your favorite bird or animal. Thank you :O)
