Pikachu nail art~~~

Hello everyone~~~

I'm here with another beginner Level Nail art tutorial~~

*Warning: The level of this tutorial is beginner level only because I'm a beginner and 

I am not so good at nail art, but if you're better you can do a better version than mine~~*

So Let's start with the tools~

1- An unwanted angled make up brush

2- Another make up brush *use the back of it* + a ball point pen

 3- Lots of Q-tips

4- Nail polish remover *for booboos...*

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Nail polishes needed:

1- Yellow nail polish *I used Pippa by Zoya*

2- Black Nail polish *I used some random polish I picked up*

3-White Nail polish *I used Snow White by Zoya*

4- Red Nail polish *Claire's red polish was used~*

5- A top coat whichever you like

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Left hand:

I'm going to link the youtube video I followed the instructions from, it's much easier to understand~~

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G7bc46b4twg

I love this Youtube guru sooo much~

she's awesome and does some lovely nail art tutorial~~

But instead of using a dotter for the checkes I used the brush itself

and I used the ballpoint pen for drawing the mouth and nose~

Final picture:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Right Hand:

As all of you know I'm a right-handed person who have no control whatsoever on her left hand

so I suck at using my left hand...

That's why for my right hand I chose a simpler design and it turned out quite good~~

It's not perfect, but there is so much I can do with my left hand....

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

So that's it for the blog post, I hope you enjoyed it and I hope you create fun and cute designs of your own~~

^w^

P.S. I don't own the designs I found them online, and just recreated them~~

Thanx for reading the post and stay tuned for the next post~~

Love & Kisses to all ~~ <3

Self Esteem

Hello everyone~~

Today's post is going to be about 

Self Esteem

It's a very touchy topic

Have you ever felt that's you're not good enough?

That if you disappear off of the face of the Planet?

And that whatever you do is pointless??

I'd been there...

It's a very dark place to be in, I hated it, I still do

I remember my whole middle school life I avoided looking in the mirror as much as I can

because I hated what stared back at me....

But as I said I 'had' been there 

Not any more

Although I still go into the dark place every once in a while

 It's completely normal

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

First you need to start accepting yourself 

I'm not going to say love yourself and stuff, cause it's pretty hard to do when you feel that way...

Once you accept yourself as it is you're already half way through

Ignore what society want you to be, it's that thing that drove you down in the first place.

Then find something that makes you feel good about yourself,

to me it was my art, if you can find that safe place that you feel useful and important in

cherish it.

Trying looking at what makes your esteem low?

is it because of

Your Acne scars?

Your body?

What is that makes you hate yourself???

All of us can point out our flaws....

But do you know what makes you feel so much better and makes you forget your flaws??

Is it your

Eyes?

Your Smile?

Your sense of humour?

Your sense of style?

Your awesome music sense?

Find your qualities, not your flaws

That way you can finally start loving yourself and start building yourself esteem 

^w^

Just remember if you smile you're 100x pretties~ <3

Hope this helped you and made you smile~~

Thanx for reading and stay tuned for the next post~~ <3

Well it's something that interests me personally

Video Games~~~

In Kuwait unless you order from outside of the country 

Your video games shops are limited,

There is the all famous mall called Al-Re7ab *I was going to write it without the number but it then spells like Rehab, which that's not what it means, it's an Arabic name so whateves.*

Baroue, or I don't know, these are the options I know about...

How I deal with acne

Hello everyone~~ <3

Today's post is going to be about something most of us struggle with

Acne

Acne's a royal pain in the a$$, it's annoying it's depressing and ultimately it's hard to get rid of...

I suffered from acne for as long as I remember,

and it was quite a depressing subject to me,

In fact I spent most of my secondary school avoiding mirrors cause I hated my face...

It didn't get any better in high school

But luckily we don't have bullying in our school, I guess it's cause girls just don't care

I tried all kind of treatments for my face but

Nothing worked....

Well I went to collage *my acne problems had became less compared to how it was in high school*

But I decided to visit a dermatologist

She gave me all kind of creams, treatments whatever you call it

the result was the same it barely did anything....

Then I visited another dermatologist, this guy instead of giving my creams and what not gave me

this *Drumroll please*

He gave me these pills called Decutan *obviously*

They target the main reason why you break out, oily skin and secretion

Ever since I used them I noticed less breakouts my skin is clearing up

but because I have very old scars so it might take a while

But all and all, it has done wonders for my skin and I love it~~~ <3

For someone who suffered from serious acne a couple of pimples every two weeks is awesome

But I'm still at my second course so it's still too early to tell ^w^

However it has several cons that I need to discuss:

#It dries the face sooo badly, but that can be dealt with with a special moisturiser your dermatologist

can recommend. 

#It kills the lips!!! I can't get my lips to be fully moisturised just using my regular lip balm

I have to use intensive lip therapy to fix them :(

#It drains water out of your body, so you need to drink twice the amount you usually do.

Well I guess that's it for this post, don't wanna make it too long,

I hope you enjoyed this post ^w^

and just so you know, you're not the only one

and it only gets better from here

Thanx for reading and stay tuned for my next post~~

Love & Kisses to all <3

   

My Life so far

Hello Everyone~~~

Long time no blog...

Sorry about that, I was just totally stumped by the amount of work needed when you have 4 labs a week...

But there is a lot of interesting things that happened lately~

So first the Annual Kuwait Book Fair #36

It was a total fail....

There was barely any English novels nor any helpful scientific
I only bought two novels... :(

The only reason the Book Fair was fun is because I went with my awesome friend~~~
@MJassim92

Anyways It was then that I fell in love with Stephen King
He's probably one of my favourite Thriller authors right no ^w^


And my search for the Son of Neptune by Rick Riordan continues,
I went on Friday to Virgin Megastore to only be stumped by the fact that book isn't arriving
there before two months...

The reasons I've been so lazy lately are these babies~~

I got another Stephen King Book and a book by C.J.Sansom~~ <3

And my very very addictive PS3 game Dynasty Warriors 7
When I come home I'm either reading or playing DW7 ooooor~ Re-watching Supernatural~~ <3

I spend most of my time with @MJassim92 ~~ she's awesome ^w^

Just her and me chilling with some Krispy Kreme
I got my favourite Banana/Mango/Strawberry smoothie~~ <3
And she got her favourite Oreo smoothie ^w^

And my poor little cat Lilo landed on her left paw in a bad way which led to a small fracture and she was limping :(
So we took her to the vet and he gave her some injections to help her, I took her again today for
the follow up ^w^

She was really tired when she got the injections...

Poor kitty :(

On Friday I went out with sis and @NOOMZzii <3~~

It was fun, we did a little shopping and had fun and we had dinner at Johnny Rockets~~ ^w^

*This burger really drained all the stress of the week, and plus I love my burgers <3*
I'm in love with Rocket burger <3 they're special sauce is really amazing ^w^

Well that's preetty much it for this post
I'll try to post soon

Thank you for reading Hope you enjoyed

Stay tuned for my next post~ <3

Love & Kisses to all <3

Nail Tutorial with limited tools~

Hiya Everyone~~~

So I was wondering what should I do for my next post...

So I was doing my nails 

and I was listening to All American Nightmare- Hinder~~~ <3

A part of the lyrics is "Red, White, Blue*

Funny thing is....

I already did my nails the day before with base of Blue and White~~~

XD

I though I might as well do something fun with my nails~

So ended up with the USA flag on my nail ^w^

*Warning: This is my first Nail art attempt ever!! So of course it's 

Not awesome or the best nail art Tutorial in the world...*

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

So what you need:

1- Many many Q-tips

2- A box of tissues *or whatever you use for removing nail polish*

3- Nail Polish remover *Any brand as long as it's good is fine*

4- A normal paint brush *I only used it on my right hand, because I can't manipulate the regular nail polish brush with my left hand....*

5- An old and unwanted mechanical pencil

*It's very useful for drawing tiny details*

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

So here are the base colours:

1- Zoya's Snow White nail polish

*I forgot to shake it before taking the pic... but I love this shade, it's pure white and has a matte-ish finish*

2- Caris Gold in Blue No. 40

*It's just a random nail polish that is peel-off-able? is that even a word.... Anyway it's very opac

and amazingly rich, I mean one coat is enough and you don't have to use nail polish remover for it~ <3*

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You just need one more color and a top coat now~ ^w^

1- Claire's Nail polish extra strong in Red 42

*You can see it's a bit faded.... This is a heavy duty nail polish... It's beautiful red not to bloody and not too orange, it's just perfect I love it~ I'm glad I got this as a gift from Claire's*

2- Rimmel London 60 seconds clear top coat

 *Probably not the best top coat.... it doesn't dry up in 60 seconds.....

But it's not bad either so meh, use any top coat you want.*

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~```

Point: Pictures of the process don't exist because I'm very messy when I do my nails,

and if I took pics it will look like a horror show and I will get polish on my camera....

Step one: Start by doing your base coats, and build it up so the color is strong and not see through.

-You can choose which fingers to put on the white and the blue colours on your on, but I had 7 white base fingers and three Blue.

-And the reason for that is white looks okay on it own, but dark blue is a bit harsh and it doesn't work well with this nail look.

*This is the only pic of the process I have :(*

Step two: Get your red nail polish~ and start drawing some strips on the white base~

-Point: Don't draw red strips on all your white base nails, it will look too much...

-For my left hand I drew the strips using the brush of the nail polish itself, cause 

I'm used to using thick paint brushes anyways *Yaay artist advantage*

but for my right hand *I'm right-handed people* I needed to use the painting brush because it's easier to use

when you're drawing with your opposite hand~

Step three: Take the white nail polish brush and drop a few drops of the white nail polish on a board *I used a card I had* and from there, start dipping the mechanical pencil *make sure the graphite is not pointing out... we're working with white here, maybe some other dark colors it'll be fine...* 

and start making dots on the blue nail base *dots are easier to deal with as you will notice the white polish will run out fast, plus make sure the dots are close to each other.*

-Start making a shape for the stars, do as many as you like, but I only did two on each of the two blue bases *I left one base empty*

Wait for all of it to dry and then add your top coat~

This is the finished look~

 Left hand *a bit messy...*

 Right hand~~ * a bit messy too*

~~~~~~~~~~~~

And that is it~ 

Sorry it was a bit boring and looooooooooooooong

I wanted to cover everything ~

I guess this goes for all my lovely friends from USA~~~ <3

Thanx and that's it for this post

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Peace out my lovelies~~~~~

Love & Kisses to all <3
