Tutorial: A cheeky Hello Kitty nail

14
Hello there…
um with a supper cute hello kitty nail tutorial today… hope you’ll like it.Lets begin…

  • start with a clear nail. make sure there is no oily stuff like cream or moisturizer in your nail. better you wash your hand before you start painting your nails. this will help you to last your nail paint.

  • take your baby pink nailpolish and apply 1st coat except your ring finger. because there we gonna paint our supper cute Kitty… when you applying your polish try not to touch your cuticles. nailpolish makes your cuticles weak and tend to dry up quickly.
  • take your white nail paint and apply on your ring finger.

 

  • Now wait till your 1st coat dried up completely.
  • Apply 2nd coat and have patient, wait until your 2nd coat is totally dry. It might take up to 20 min.
  • depending on your nail polish, you might need another extra coat. if your base isn’t covered enough then do apply another coat.
 
  • If you done drying your nail then its time to draw you kitty. With a darker color start drawing Hello Kitty shape in your white based nail.
  • Again wait a bit to dry it up. or you can go for your other hand to paint.
  • Overlap Kitty shape with your pink nail paint. leave a bit of border as shown.
  • give time to dry… 
 
  • draw bows on your kitty and add dots on other nail.
  • wait to dry…..
 
 
 
 
 
  • Draw details on your kitty… add more colorful dots….
  • i added a stone on the bow.. you can aswell if you want or leave it as it is.
  • wait to dry…….
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
  • When its completely dry finish off with your favorite top coat. i used matte finish top coat here. And again for the last time wait a bit to dry…. meanwhile you waiting, take a cotton bud and clean up with nailpolish remover if there is any mess in your nail…
 
…………So, now we are done with supper cute Hello Kitty nail. 🙂
 
tips:
  • you can always use any color you want
  • if you have Kitty nail sticker you can use that instead of drawing
  • if you have Kitty stamping kit you can use that instead of drawing
  • dont have dotting tool. not to worry.. use tooth pic or ball point pen or boby pin. it works fantastic.
  • do not worry that you don have professional nail art brush. brushes i used here is all normal painting brush. which you can easily get from your local stationary .  
  • do apply top coat to prolong your nail paint. its also gives a good finish
  • have patient while you doing your nail paint 🙂

DIY is always fun and i love to do crafting. Product you make by your own hand is always unique and save money as well. Other hand, there is some stuff which are not available in market but you need one, then you need to make it by your own. Definitely you need a bit of effort, practice and patient for that. but trust me your work will give you a lot of pleasure.

Review: OLAY natural white healthy fairness day cream

10
I always get confused about day cream because of my Combi-skin. When its summer my skin tends to get partly oily and in winter its seriously dry. I cant use same day cream all the season. So i often change my day cream or daily moisturizer.
Starting of this summer(2012) i bought ‘OLAY natural white healthy fairness day cream’ to try on. It comes in a tube form in BD local retails. Also available in bigger jar which are imported from other countries.
A 40g tube cost BDT 200/-

Product claims to have triple nutrient system which ‘ll help to nourish skin and prevent dark spot. also claims to give a non-greasy light texture and protection from sun ray.
[wp_ad_camp_3][/wp_ad_camp_3]

From the packaging… This cream contains some of the healthy whitening and moisturizing agents like water, glycerin, tamarinds extract, grape fruit extract, apple extract,lime juice, orange juice and lemon juice.

My experience:
Just to remind you again, I’ve combine skin. I’ve been using this cream for almost 2 month.

  • Firstly, this product smells really good. leaves a mild fragrance which i love as um a fragrance freak. i don’t like product without fragrance.
  • Cream is very light peachy in color which i also like.
  • Pretty sleek packaging specially for travel purpose or to keep in handbag.
  • It is light weight to wear and moisturize skin properly.
  • Has a creamy texture but absorb quickly.
  • Doesn’t leave any white residue.
  • Good for water based makeup as it contain water.
  • Has UV protection which is really good to have in a day cream. Though its not mentioned anywhere in the packaging about the ratio of UV protector or SPF scale.
  • A small amount is enough to cover whole face and neck.
  • 40g seems to last long
  • Not expensive and available everywhere.[wp_ad_camp_4][/wp_ad_camp_4]











Now, those are the good side of this products. According to my skin type i got some unpleasant word aswell.

  • This cream absorb quickly but i feel greasy after few minute. and time on my skin gets oily. i think its because of glycerin its contains.
  • At the beginning makeup seems flawless but after few hours its start creasing cause of over moisturizing.
  • My skin did break out few times while i was using this product… not sure though, is it for this cream or for other product i use.
  • A big NO for any kind of fairness, even out skin tone, preventing spots or lighting spots. Nothing changes in my skin.

[wp_ad_camp_5][/wp_ad_camp_5]

Recommendation:

  • If you have combi skin like me or oily skin, this is definitely a wrong product to use in summer. But i thik its gonna be a good product to use in winter. As um planning to use it in winter.
  • Who people have dry or normal skin this might be the right summer product for them than winter.
after applying…

FOTD: my favourite daytime look for summer

I was asked to do a post on daytime summer look.
So, here it is…..For pinky lovers(like me) its a perfect day time look i think.
When its a Summer day,weather is extra hot and you gotta go for work you don’t wanna put a load of makeup on you face. You cant go with a naked face either… So then you’ll need to pick you makeup very wisely. Which will be a polished look, also wont be a disaster end of the day.
Normally, i dont use shadows on my working day but sometimes i do, just to get some change in my look.
This makeup looks very natural and clean on day light with a bit of pink freshness.
here’s what i used….

FACE:
*Everyday moisturizer(currently um using OLAY)
*Neutrogena sport face sunblock
*MUA face primer
*Revlon color stay concealer
*Revlon color stay translucent powder
*Keya Seth’s umbrella sun powder
*MUA bronzing powder in shade 2
*Fashionista blush in shade 9
*BeautyUK stripey as highlighter

EYE’s:

*from MUA immaculate palette(shade 8,17n18)

*Lakme khol liner
*Miss Sporty brown liner
*Rimel london day 2 night mascara

*MUA transparent mascara for brows

LIP’s:

*LA Gitl’s endless kisses lipstic
I haven’t applied any foundation or eye primer here to avoid feeling heavy. I cleaned and moisture my face first and put some sunblock. Used primer and no foundation with a bit of concealer (..I do wanna hide redness and unwanted spots) and obviously translucent powder to prevent sweating.
I kept very easy on eyes here but applied some extra coat of mascara. Light touch of blush n bright pinky lip did rest of the job here.
products mostly I’ve used for this look

Review: MUA(Makeup Academy) Face Primer

14

Firstly, what a Face primer actually is?
Primer is a combined agent of silicone and moisturizer manly which helps to make a good base for applying foundation or any makeup . It creates an even and soft layer over skin what helps makeup to stay longer, blend easily, evenly, and prevent sliding off foundation in general.

This Primer is a new product of MUA Pro range. its worth £4 for 27ml tube.
I was pretty excited to try this primer because its hard to get a good face primer in this low price and ofcourse all MUA product i tried before were amazing.

This product claims to give a flawless even complexion. It says,” a velvety smooth formula that feels light on skin and creates a flawless even complexion which you can wear alone or under foundation for long lasting finish and ‘ll last all day”.
(from Back caption of the product and website disclaimer )

It took me long to understand this product. I’ve been wearing different kind of face primers whatever they are cheap or pricey. But this time i was in judging mood, so its natural to take time.

This is an water based primer which is perfect to use with a water based foundation.

I’m a working lady. I’ve to stay out atleast 6-8 hour a day. Precisely, i do a little touch up when i go out. Bangladesh is mainly a hot country. You sweats all the time when you go out unless its an AC place. Its really difficult here to keep you makeup looks right.
For two week’s i was trying this product.and it made me real confuse. Sometime it was okay and sometime it felt like disaster.

First disappointment… when i was trying it for the first time, tube cap just pop out !!! Is it normal to came out like this? I don’t think so. May be it happened only with my one ! But the thing is, this primer is very watery than other primers. Without this tube nozzle when you push it whole lot of primer come out than you need…

As because its a water based primer its really good for hot weather. It does feel smooth and light on skin and doesn’t make you oily or create any allergic reaction (my skin is very sensitive and allergic). Usually than other primer you need a bit more of MUA primer to cover your face because of the runny consistency. You’ll need to wait minimum 2-3 minute after applying this to set it on skin.  Only then you can expect a good finish for your foundation or powders.
You surely cannot use it alone because the coverage its provide just the same as moisturizer even looks glossy. Its not gonna clear out redness of your skin or cover up any spots what you wanna hide. you’ll need atleast translucent powder if you want a no makeup look.

After trying this for two weeks, i’ll say its not the primer to last all day(if its cold weather it might). it works okay max 4-5 hour and then your foundation start creasing and time on ‘ll slide off.

Lastly, um not so happy with this but um not unhappy either. I can say, its not a shockingly impressive product. Its just an okay product to use. It does give good finish when you apply it. And yeh, the price is cheap for a primer but you can also get a better primer than this in the same price(out of Bangladesh). If you are a regular user of makeup and you need to stay out for hours a day, i’ll suggest you to go for cheaper primer(only if u need to think of ur money). Other than, for occasional use you can get a high end primer.

This is totally my opinion for MUA primer, other might say something else…
