Etude House: Christmas Miracle Nails! [Review]

Helloo~!~! so a week or so ago I did the Mint Frappe Nail review from etude house, well I was so happy about the outcome, I wanted to try another set of 3 colors from Etude :) so, in the spirit of christmas, I bought this! it was about 700yen which is pretty prices 



so the silver and pink are for the tips
or well you can use it however you want but I used the silver and pink (the two on the left and middle) for the tips of my nails and the baby pink (the one on the right) for the bottom part 

1 layer of the baby pink - so light!  

after about 4 layers
SO PINK!


with silver :)


silverrr



with pink

the pink is actually very subtle and pretty much blends in with the baby pink for some reason! 

this was super fun! i really love doing my nails :) I have gotten a lot more compliments for the silver tips than the pink tips though haha, I want to buy a sheer-ish white nail polish and have that with the silver tips, that would be nice wouldn't it?

well anyway, this was just like the Mint Frappe Nails, with the 3 steps which is pretty cool :) it was a lot of fun, what I really like is that there are so many possibilities for the kind of design and style you want to do, I don't think it was worth 700yen but I guess since it's christmas that's the only reason the price was so high :) 

so all in all I really liked this ~!~!~!~! I hope to get another set..haha maybe....

Etude House: Juicy Gradation Nails: #4 Mint Frappe

Living in the fashion center of Japan is quite a challenging lifestyle! So many of the girls I see on the street are super dressed up, you would not expect them to be a university student, the look more like they are going on a date or going out to the mall, and because they look and dress so great I feel I have to do the same! SO i bought this lovely item from Etude House in Shinjuku Station :)!

The instructions are pretty straight forward - no matter what language the instructions are in haha! but nontheless this was super fun and can't wait to do it again :3










so nice they labeled everything :) 1,2,3





after about 4 coats of #1 ! 




after about 3 coats of #2 !


after about 3-4 coats of #3!










FIERCEEEE!!!

I guess it was sort of expected that this project would have to be a lot of layers >< ! not very healthy for the nails but this was pretty cheap around $4.00 :) so all in all it was a super fun project and I couldn't be happier with the result :) i've gotten so many compliments and I would love to try the other colors!
