Valentine’s day nail art tutorial : Hearts and Dots



This was my nail art for Valentine’s Day. All it took was two nail polish shades (red and light pink) and a bobby pin.

First I painted my nails with the light pink shade:

Christmas loot (AKA California haul)

(This isn't really a "beauty" post, but it does contain some beauty related items, so I figured I'd share this on this blog as well.)

I know this is extremely late, seeing as it’s already February, but I promised my friend Tring that I would make an entry about the stuff I got for Christmas, so here it is :D I also decided to include some of my vacation haul in this entry because I’m too lazy to make a separate post about it.

I’ll start off with my Christmas haul, which consists of stuff that I didn’t pay for. These are some of the things I managed to take a picture of. (Some of the items were still in balikbayan boxes when I took most these, and by the time we finished unpacking I wasn’t in the mood to take pictures anymore.)


A new laptop from my parents :D I’ve already talked about this in a previous entry, so I won’t go into much detail about it here.


A Bath and Body Works gift set


A clutch bag and a wallet


Victoria’s Secret gift set (in Sheer Love)

My cousin got my sister and me a $20 Victoria’s Secret gift card each, which I used to buy these:


More Victoria’s secret stuff! (I was in a hurry when I bought this so I accidentally picked up a bottle of Sheer Love by mistake, forgetting that I already got the gift set. There wasn’t time for me to go back to the store and exchange it so it’s a good thing I love the scent.)


The Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf 2012 planner from my boyfriend, which he gave me as soon as I got back home, along with these super adorable candles:
