August's Lemming

Hello girls!

How's everyone coping lately? Hope everything is going smoothly and well for everyone! Well, school just started for us, hmm we wished the holidays were longer so that we can have more personal time! Oh, Cheeying's room is 90% done, where the balance 10% are bits and pieces!  Anyway, enough of chatting, here is our this month's lemming, another quick post, has school has started!


We believed that most of you have already since the hologram released from the US girls who went for the Cosmoproof event at LA! Both of us are hoping that we would be able to enter too, if we happened to be at LA next year around the time when Cosmoproof is held! For those of you who hasnt, hurry visit Polish Galore's site, she has alot of wonderful photos taken at the event! We are so gonna make sure we have a back up set for these holo babies, too holo to own only one of them!

Another brand that has released their new hologram collection at Cosmoproof! Wow, are you holo fans glad that there are so many pretty holos coming out this season? For those of you who are unable to grab your hands on previous holo collections, this is your chance to own them all! For students like us, we know how much we have to go on a saving mode just to fulfill all these lemmings, danng!

The both of us arent really a fan of high end boutique brand nail polish lover, mainly due to the cost of each bottle. But this cute little Chanel polish has not only caught our attention, even Charmy has also said that this is such a beauty! Now we are contemplating on getting this beauty, after scoring our first Dior Polish Saint Tropez! Any comments girls?:)

New Illamasqua's rubber neon polishes! The last time we saw it was a Sephora Exclusive in the US but we heard from other sources that they might be available on the Illamasqua's online store in the near future! Hmm, but it is still so much cheaper to grab them from US!

More Greens

As you know, one of us love green, aqua blue and teal polishes. Cheeying bought our first boutique brand polish, Dior's Saint Tropez at the airport's duty free shop. Since it was cheaper than the local departmental stores. For this post's manicure, I've decided to pair Saint Tropez together with Illamasqua's Nomad, the outcome was really a surprise for us. Wanna know why? READ Below!



Application was smooth with Illamasqua brush, love the formula!




It was my first time using Dior's brush, had some difficulty with the application for my first try. But after painting a few fingers, I kinda got the hang of manipulating with Dior's brush:D




This was the surprise I was talking about, the manicure was a similar match to my blackberry's housing!
what a sweet and pleasant surprise!

Mysterious Glitter reveals

Hello Polisholics!

Its Singapore's 47th Birthday today, its been almost 50 years since the separation with Malaysia in 1965! Wow, look at how time flies! The both of us were born when Singapore was only 27th, the young nation is finally becoming older, wiser and more prosperous! 

Happy Birthday Singapore!

Sad to say we arent skilled in doing any nail art and since we love glitters. The both of us decided to get a customised polish for this year's national day. We were lucky enough to contact Dolly from Dollish Polish (Facebook Page) to create a franken for us!
As most of you have already read from Polish Days 3: Olympic Games, this Mysterious Glitter is a clear base with a mixture of silver holographic stars, red tiny circle glitters, white tiny square glitters, red medium hexagonal glitter, white large hexagonal glitters 

Ta daa~ Mysterious Glitter is revealed!
Given the color of the glitters in this bottle, needless to say, its definitely inspired by our flag's color!
Therefore its called Singapore

This is Singapore layered over pink, blue and black. 
While on the pinkey finger its worn on its own!







Hope you enjoy this short and sweet post of our's(:
Happy Birthday Singapore!(:
One nation, One People, One Singapore:D
You'll always be our home!

Polish Days #3: Olympic Games




Its the third event for Polish Days, but it is our second since we missed out the first one! According to Hannah from Polly Polish, the third Polish Day's theme would be the Olympic Games, as August Polish Day falls right in middle of the 2012 London Olympic Games!

About the Singapore's Flag
Red is the symbol of universal brotherhood and equality of man, while white signifies everlasting purity and virtue. The crescent symbolises the young nation on the ascendant and the 5 stars represent the 5 ideals of democracy, peace, progress, justice and equality. 

(Details taken from MOE)

Since we are celebrating Singapore's 47th National Day on the 9 of August, in collaboration with the current theme, we have decided to create our Olympic Games nails according to our flag's colors! Yeah~

Both of us were never good with nail art, therefore we decided to top our nails with some glitters!
We chose (from Left)OPI Alphine Snow, 'Mysterious Glitter' and OPI It's So Hot, It Berns 

'Mysterious Glitter' is a customised polish(more details will be revealed in another post) contains silver holographic stars, red tiny circle glitters, white tiny square glitters, red medium hexagonal glitter, white large hexagonal glitters.
Wow, this bottle of glitter is so patriotic!

As Singapore has recently won a bronze medal in the Olympic for the Female Singles Table Tennis match, we are even more determined to paint our nails like the flag with Red on our index and middle finger, white on the index and pinkey followed by the Mysterious Glitter

Index & Middle Finger: Mysterious Glitter layered over OPI It's So Hot, It Berns(Base) 
Ring & Pinkey: Mysterious Glitter over OPI Alphine Snow

What is with the glitter?
Neither of us are good with free hand drawing, thus we decided to just use Mysterious glitters to layer them over our nails! Our friends who have seen our nails, teased us wondering when were we so patriotic, so we answered, since now! LOL







While we were thinking of how should our nails be painted for this Polish Days, over at the London Olympics Patriotic Country Nails are in the trend now!
