Summer colors:OPI Rising Star

Rising Star, with it's golden color and foil effect is a great color for summer. It somewhat reminds of Cozu-Melted in the Sun but in a more warm, orangey way. It was rather runny but reached full opacity with 2 coats.

Leopard print nails! ft OPI Charmed by a snake

I finally got them right! yeay, yeay,yeay!





To do this you just need a light base color, a darker one and black polish with a very thin tip. You paint your nails with your base color, then do spots with the darker one. Once dry you take the black and do three lines around big spots or two around smaller ones. Add a few strikes of black where possible.  There you have it!! Leopard nails! Miaw!

Till next time,

OPI:Katherine the Grape

God, I'm supposed to be studying right now. I wasn't gonna post anything today; I had tried taking pics of my nails but the lighting was awful. Then I sat to study Ancient Greek. Uhhh. And the lighting was good. So here I am posting about one of my newest polishes, Katherine.

Katherine is a good color but nothing that wows me. Charmed by a snake had me more enthusiastic than this. Hell,Diva of Geneva had more enthusiastic than this. But well, it isn't bad; just mediocre, a purple color.Have a look.






5 bucks is OK but I wouldn't repurchase. Excuse moi Catherine.

 Until next time,
xoxo Alaeis

OPI: Charmed by a snake

Hello everyone!, I'm Alaeis and this my blog where I'll post fashion and makeup related topics. I also am monster V at the cheekymonsters blog!  Let's cut to the chase.

Charmed by a snake is an amazing choco golden polish. It doesn't strike or is too thin and I aboslutely love it. What do you think?



This was two coats by the way. I think this one is a keeper. And guess what? It was only 5 bucks. What a steal!!

Until next time,
xoxo Alaeis
