French Manicure

How was your long weekend guys?

I was kind of bored at home and decided to change my nail color. I love coloring my nails. It's actually rare to see me with bare nails. As a college student, it's kind of unaffordable to go manicure at salon often so I prefer to do it myself and save up for school **poor college kids** :(

DIY French Manicure

I love this french manicure. It is very simple and looks really clean. It is perfect for school and work and also for those who don't like to have bright nails. I skipped the base and started off to apply 2 coats of Rimmel french manicure pro in color 140 (french rose). I then cut the clear tape into a round tip shape and taped it to my nails to create the white tip. I put a coat of Pure Ice in shade 'Super star'. I topped it with Sally Hansen strengthening top coat and ta-dahh my french manicure is done! Simple and neat.

And now a little bit of my nails story. I used to have a really bad habit which is biting my nails and it lasted for more than 10 years! I tried to quit but it never worked. I actually quit for 2 years while I had my braces then I started again when I took the braces off. I then tried to quit again and of course it failed. So I decided to apply nail polish on my nails. That's the only way preventing me from biting the nails. It worked pretty well until I got a job at the dining court in my college. I'm not allowed to put on any nail polish because my job scope is dealing with foods. Guess what?? My old habit came back grrrr!!!!

I quit my job couple months ago and I started to grow my nails and put nail polish again. *whew* So my old habit kind of went away. I wish. **finger crossed**. That's why I have very petite nails.

And since then, I love to color my nails. *YAY* I usually change my nail polish every other week now or when it starts chipping.
