How to get stronger nails!



Getting manicures is so much fun because there are so many opinions on nail designs! Just a while ago I done an interesting post on 101 Dalmatians Inspired nail art! However, sometimes we forget that we should take care of our nails. They need to be healthy and strong.

My nails have always been weak and they chip easily. I remember that I used to struggle to keep my manicures looking fresh. My nails would break easily and every girl knows that it is really hard to beautify nails that are constantly breaking! 

I was so worried until my eldest sister told me that there are actually capsules that can be used to help strengthen your nails so that they do not break all the time, or at least not as much. She then bought me these capsules and after a few months, my nails started not breaking as much! I have been using them ever since.




There are many ways that you can take care of your nails and then they will not break as easily.

If you have the same problem with nails that tend to chip and break, I have a few tips for you:

©      Consider using capsules such as these hair, skin and nails capsules by Vital.
©      Wear a protective base coat under nail polish at all times!
©      Try to keep your hands out of water, and wear gloves whenever you happen to be doing the dishes!
©      If you bite your nails, or even just suck at them sometimes, stop this as this just makes the problem worse.
©      A lemon juice and water soak is a good way to treat yourself at home, plus it makes your nails stronger!

Avon Face pearls Review



When I first heard of this product, I was paging through the Avon catalogue with one of my older sisters. She then told me that I should try this out because she thought that I would love this product. So, I took her advice and decided to try it out!
When I opened the packaging, the beautiful packaging took my breath away. The box looked so chic and elegant. The little container with the face pearls had metallic, bronze prints on it. I just love it!

In case you are like me, and has never used any illuminating product before, then you should know that this product can be applied to your face using a blush brush, or even a powder brush. You can apply it the same way you would apply blush. You can also apply some to your temples!
When I tried it on, I was so pleased with the gorgeous glow it gave my skin. If you are the type of girl that loves a natural-looking glow, then this is the product for you!

I hope that you enjoyed reading this article and if you have any questions or any requests on what I should write on next, kindly leave a comment here or on my other social media accounts. Lastly, if you have a makeup product that you would like me to try, then let me know!

101 Dalmatians Inspired Nail Art Tutorial





Who wouldn’t want adorable pink nails with cute accents on them? This is an easy way to spice up your manicure by adding a little extra cuteness to your nails!


 These are the products I used.

Step one:
Apply your base coat. I usually use Essence Studio Nails anti split nail studio as a base coat. This sealing nail polish is good for protecting your nails from any stains. This is an important step as sometimes wearing nail polish frequently can stain your nails, and I have very sensitive nails so I always make sure that I use a base coat. Base coat also helps your nail polish look smoother.

Step two:
For this look, you need four fingers on each hand to be light pink, and one fingernail to be a rose colour. So take your light pink colour and apply it to four of your nails. I used Essence “the gel” nail polish in the colour “13 forgive me”. This colour is so gorgeous and it is much pigmented. 

Step three:
Now you should have eight pink fingernails and two plain ones. Apply the rose coloured polish to the two plain nails. I used Essence “the gel” nail polish in the colour “48 my love diary”.

Step four:
Now, it is time for the fun part. In order to get this look you’ll need some nail art topper. I used 101 Dalmatians Essence nail topper. This nail topper has sadly been discontinued, but you will just need one nail topper with white bits, and one nail topper with black bits. The important part is that the nail topper is black and white because those are the colours of the adorable stars of the movie, 101 Dalmatians. 



This is the finished result!
