OPI GelColor - The Trendsetters Kit and OPI INK

2012-01-30T18:18:00.002-06:00

I got these like a month ago... that I was waiting for so long to get them!! All you guys know how much I love OPI and there was like every brand launches their gel polishes for a really long time, I was wondering why OPI launched their Axxium Soak-Off Gel Lacquer years ago then like stop making any gel products... Finally, they release the news about GelColor last year!!! Of course I won't pass them!! All I can say is: it's so worth for the waiting and money!! They are awesome!!!

大月一個月前我收到了OPI新的GelColor，我等他們推出等超久的！大家都知道我有多愛OPI，之前大概每個牌子都出了這種指甲油式的凝膠，我就在想為什麼OPI幾年前推出了Axxium Soak-Off Gel Lacquer之後，好像就不再推出任何凝膠產品了，去年終於有了消息OPI將推出GelColor的消息！當然，我是不可能錯過的！而我只能說：真的是值得等待和這個價錢！超棒的！！

There are 30 most popular shades so far, I got The Trendsetters Kit which includes 6 darker shades, base coat, top coat, and one more extra shade OPI INK. Actually I have every color in polish version except Suzi Says Feng Shui which I always wanna get. Also I have 4 shades: Brisbane Bronze, You Don't Know Jacques!, Russian Navy, and Black Onyx in Axxium Soak-Off Gel Lacquer version.

目前推出30個他們一直以來最暢銷的顏色，我買了一組The Trendsetters Kit 包含了6個深色系列的凝膠、底膠、封膠、和額外的一個色號 OPI INK。事實上美個顏色我都有指甲油的版本，除了一直想要買的Suzi Says Feng Shui外，另外Brisbane Bronze, You Don't Know Jacques!, Russian Navy, and Black Onyx這四色我還有Axxium Soak-Off Gel Lacquer的版本。

The kit also include a blank nail palette, tabletop instructions, and instructional brochure.

組合裡還有一個試色卡版和一些說明。

I don't think there is experttouch removal weaps in the kit, but I got it anyway. It's like sample size which only has 20 sheets, better than nothing, right?

我想在組合理應該是沒有包含卸甲的鋁箔，不過我收到了。只有20片的sample包裝，但有總比沒有好，對吧？

The wraps are really thin, just like the regular kitchen foil.

他非常的薄，就完全像廚房用的鋁箔一樣。

The back has OPI logo... which I really don't like! I know that they need to put this on, but just like ORLY's wraps, it will dissolve in acetone when you are doing the soak off, it's just such a mess!! I haven't had chance to use OPI's one...I'll keep you updated!

而背面印有OPI的logo...我非常討厭這種東西！我知道他們總是得印這種東西在產品上，但就像ORLY的一樣，他們遇到acetone之後就會溶解，然後弄的到處都是！我還沒有機會用OPI的...但我會再更新！

OPI's cotton pad is slightly bigger than ORLY's one and the foil is so thin which ORLY's one is quite thick and strong!

OPI的棉片比ORLY的大一點點，ORLY的鋁箔很厚而且感覺很硬實！

OPI's cotton pad is super thin, I don't know will it affect the results for soaking off, again, I'll update it for you.

OPI的棉片超薄，我不知道會不會影響卸甲的效果，但我依然會在更新結果！

The brush compare with the OPI regular polish brush, GelColor one is short and slightly thinner, I like the change cause the gel is tiny bit thicker and you really don't need much product to finish each layer, it will be easier to use!

刷頭比一般OPI的指甲油刷頭短而且稍微窄一點，我喜歡這個改變，因為凝膠比指甲油稍稍濃綢一點點，而且你只需要一點點凝膠就可以了，這樣的刷頭很好控制！

Swatches as below, only Brisbane Bronze is 2 coats, otherwise, every swatch is only with one coat! How pigmented they are!!

下面是試色，只有Brisbane Bronze是兩層，其他都是一層而已！可見他們有多顯色！

OPI GelColor Brisbane Bronze

OPI GelColor You Don't Know Jacques!

OPI GelColor Here Today...Aragon Tomorrow

OPI GelColor Suzi Says Feng Shui

OPI GelColor Russian Navy

OPI GelColor Black Onyx

Here are comparison of GelColor and Axxium Soak-Off Gel Lacquer, you can see that Gel color is much pigmented than Axxium Soak-Off Gel Lacquer! All swatches of GelColor are one coat, and Axxium Soak-Off Gel Lacquer are two to three coats!

下面是我有同樣顏色的GelColor和Axxium Soak-Off Gel Lacquer做比較，可以發現新的GelColor顯色多了，當它只需要一層的時候，比Axxium Soak-Off Gel Lacquer二或三層還要更顯色！

Juicy Couture x deborah lippmann - Precious Metals

2011-12-31T09:44:00.001-06:00

Juicy Couture x deborah lippmann launched two 2011 holiday nail polish sets, Precious Metals and Shimmer and Shine, awhile ago. Both sets are perfect for holiday, obviously. Precious Metals set is more a cool tone set, and Shimmer and Shine is more girly pink set. They both include one opposite tone color in each set, for example, Here Comes The Queen for this set.

Juicy Couture和deborah lippmann在一陣子前聯名推出了兩組2011 holiday指甲油，分別是Precious Metals和Shimmer and Shine。Precious Metals是比較冷色調，而Shimmer and Shine是比較女孩子的粉色調，兩組都包含了一個反差色，像這組的Here Comes The Queen.

Each cap is the mach color with polish, and has a gem on top, very cute!

每個瓶蓋都有和指甲油相呼應的顏色，頂端也有個大寶石，很可愛！

Here Comes The Queen
semi-sheer yellow tone gold icy sparkles in clear polish.

金黃色亮片

It's very similar to essie "as gold as it gets". Here Comes The Queen has more sparkles and better color payoff, one coat of Here Comes The Queen is just like two coats of "as gold as it gets."

和essie的as gold as it gets很相似，Here Comes The Queen比較顯色和有比多較多的亮片，一層Here Comes The Queen就像是兩層的as gold as it gets。

<L: Here Comes The Queen ; R: as gold as it gets>

Believe

Metallic silver shimmer.

金屬光澤的銀色亮粉

Jewel In The Crown
Metallic gunmetal with very few silver sparkles.

金屬光澤的鐵灰色和稀少的銀色亮片。

OPI Serena Glam Slam - Pros & Bronze (S74) / Love Is A Racket (S73)

2011-12-28T17:02:00.000-06:00

This duo is the most bright, sun kissed colors in Serena Glam Slam series. Both colors are supper shimmery and shinny. Very nice to wear in summer with tan skin color.

這兩色組合是最閃亮、最適合在夏天和古銅色肌膚上使用的Serena Glam Slam系列組合。兩色都很閃亮的佈滿了小亮粉。

Love Is Racket (S73) is reddish hot pink with icy sparkles, the sparkles are not very noticeable when you wear, unless you look up closely. I will recommend apply top coat to make the surface LOOK smoother (it's not uneven or anything, just the sparkles look kind of rough.)

Love Is Racket (S73)是偏紅色的亮粉紅為基底色和璀燦亮片粉，在指甲上除非近看亮片粉並不非常顯眼，我會比較建議擦top coat讓表面看起來比較平滑（並非它並不平或怎樣，只是亮片粉看起來比較粗糙）。

Pros & Bronze (S74) looks like liquid copper, it's a very beautiful color! It has metallic gold and orange shimmers, super high shine on the nails, it has foil effect.

Pros & Bronze (S74)看起來像是液態銅般，非常的漂亮！那金屬般的金色和橘色亮粉讓他在指甲上非常的閃亮，像是金箔般的效果。

I found it's pretty similar to Designer Series' DS Glow(DS036), DS Glow is more in brown side, and Pros & Bronze is more in orange gold side.

我發覺他和設計師系列的DS Glow(DS036)蠻相似的，DS Glow(DS036)比較偏棕色，而Pros & Bronze則比較偏金橘色。

OPI - How's It Snowin'? (C52)

2011-12-14T13:48:00.000-06:00

This is one of the OPI Ulta exclusive polishes. There're tons of 2 size silver glitters in gunmetal transparent polish, the glitters are so so so many, it's really a eye catcher! After I bought it, my husband went to Ulta to meet me, even he picked it up and showed it to me! That's how pretty it is!

這是OPI 2011年專為Ulta推出的指甲油之一。底色是鐵灰色透明指甲油，和滿滿的兩種不同大小的銀色亮片，亮片非常非常的多，很吸睛！當我買完之後，我老公到Ulta找我會合，連他都拿起這瓶推薦給我！這就顯示這瓶有多閃亮了！

I love OPI's glitter polishes! The glitters are fine and settle, very easy to apply, one coat can be done. I put 2 coats on the swatch wheel for better color payoff. One coat happened to be more on gray side, and 2 coats will darker the base color and show more the silver glitters. It's not too thick, for me, it's actually a little bit liquid, so it won't be thick looking on the nails.

我非常喜愛OPI的亮片指甲油！亮片本身很細緻，非常容易擦，擦一層其實就可以了，我擦了兩層在試色盤上為了更加顯色。一層會顯示比較灰色，兩層會讓底色加深而更加顯示出銀色的亮片。他並不會很濃稠，對我來說其實還有些稀，所以再指甲上並不會感到很厚重。

essie - as gold as it gets

2011-12-14T13:21:00.001-06:00

First of all, I'm not a big fan of essie polishes, I prefer bigger, fatter brushes, but when I saw this, I can't help not to get it! haha....

首先，我並不是太喜歡essie的指甲油，我比較喜歡大一些、寬版的刷頭，但當我看到這瓶指甲油，忍不住布買她！哈哈

It's a very nice pale yellow tone gold iced glitter in clear polish. When I saw it, I felt it's so holidays! It's not the color that you will wear on its own, but layer on red, gold, or any dark colors will bring out the gold sparkles and add so much fun!

這是有很美的淺金黃璀璨亮片的透明指甲油。當我看到他時舊想到年終假期！這不是個可以單擦得顏色，但加在紅色、金色或各種深色指甲油上，都可以顯現出那金色的亮片和更加的有趣！

My Thanksgiving nails

2011-11-29T07:47:00.000-06:00

Sorry for not posting any new articles in a while, I just had crazy busy weeks lately! Here is the nails I wore for Thanksgiving, very easy to do and nice for any occasion, enjoy ^^

很抱歉很有沒有更新文章了，這幾星期我非常的忙碌！這是我感恩節時的指甲，非常容易做也很適合各種場合，希望你喜歡^^

OPI - Divine Swine (C13)

2011-11-09T12:48:00.000-06:00

It's purplish hot pink glitters and chunky silver sparkles in clear polish. It's need at least 2 coats for better finish, better for layering on color polishes.

透明指甲油與偏紫色的亮粉紅亮片和銀色大量片組成，要較好的效果至少需要2層，更可以擦在其他指甲油上增加效果。

3 coats in the picture below but 2 coats can be done on it's own. I think OPI does pretty good job on glitter polishes, from Alice in Wonderland collection to present, their glitter polishes are pretty opaque.

下圖試3層的結果，但2層已經足夠閃亮了。我認為OPI在亮片指甲油上有不錯的表現，從愛麗絲夢遊仙境系列到現在，她們的亮片指甲油都蠻顯色的。

OPI - Rainbow Connection (C09)

2011-11-09T12:29:00.002-06:00

Rainbow Connection (C09) is very similar to Deborah Lippmann's Happy Birthday and Milani's Gems, multi-colored glitters and chunky sparkles is clear polish. It's better than Sehpora by OPI Spark-tacular! top coat, Rainbow Connection's glitters and sparkles are more and bigger.

Rainbow Connection (C09)和Deborah Lippmann的Happy Birthday以及Milani的Gems非常相似，是多彩的大小亮片在透明的指甲油中。比Sehpora by OPI Spark-tacular! top coat好，Rainbow Conncetion的亮片比較多而且比較大。

Because the base color is clear, it can be used as top layer to any color polish to add a sparking effect. Wear by its own, need at least 2 coats, in the picture below is 3 coats. I found you don't need 3 coats to show the shinny sparkles, 2 coats can be super shinny. Although the glitters do not cover entire nail bed, it won't effect the shines. You can only find it's not enough for entire nail bed as the picture below when you see it close, it shows very well in an arm length distance or more.

因為他本身底色試透明的，可擦再任何指甲油上增加閃亮的效果。如果只擦他本身，需要至少2層，下面照片中是3層，但我發覺並不需要塗到3層去顯示它的閃亮程度，2層就可以有超閃的效果了，雖然2層並不能把整個指甲表面佈滿，但除非接近去看他，不然從以個手臂距離或更遠看已經足夠閃亮了。

It's not a unique color, but still can be fun to wear!

這不是個獨特的顏色，但依舊是個有趣的指甲油！

OPI - Designer... De Better (C07)

2011-11-06T10:59:00.000-06:00

I love love love this color!! It's may be my favorite purchased lately! It's metallic champagne with orange micro glitters or shimmer. It almost looks like foil on nails, super smooth, super shiny.

It's very easy to apply, don't need any skill, everyone can do a good job with this. It's just like liquid metal when you apply it. The color payoff is great! One coat can be done.

我超超超愛這個顏色的! 他可能是我近期最喜歡的購買！他有細微橘色亮粉的金屬光澤香檳色，在指甲上看起來就像是金箔般非常平滑、閃亮。

I didn't find it's pretty similar to Orly's Rage when I bought it, but after I finished apply on my nails, I did notice they are very similar. I don't have Rage in polish but gel, and I am actually not happy with the finish with gel, 'cause it's not as foil like shiny as I want. Rage in gel version do not have the foil finish, I was thinking to get the polish version instead. Now I am glad I did not! OPI Designer... De Better actually has the foil, metallic finish I want, and I like the color even better. Designer... De Better is more silvery champagne when Rage is more gold. For some reason, gold isn't look great on me.

我買的時候沒有發現他很像Orly的Rage，但當我擦在指甲上後卻發現他們很相似。我沒有指甲油版本的Rage但有凝膠版的，其實我並不喜歡凝膠版的表現，他沒有我想要那種金箔感的光澤，我幾乎想要去買指甲油版的了，但很開心我並沒有這麼做，因為OPI的 Designer... De Better (C07)就有那種我想要的金箔金屬般的表現，而且我更喜歡這個顏色勝於Rage!OPI的 Designer... De Better (C07)比較偏向銀香賓色，Rage比較偏金色，而金色其實並不適合我的膚色。

butter London - Big Smoke

2011-11-06T09:40:00.002-06:00

butter London describes it as "Mildly metallic navy blue that’s as naughty as a night in a smoky pub". It's a beautiful color...so sexy! I feel like it looks like galaxy.

butter London形容這個顏色為「微微金屬光澤的海軍藍就像在充滿煙霧的夜店般俏皮」。這是個很美的顏色...非常的性感！我認為看起來像銀河般。

Dark navy blue with tons silver micro shimmer, nice on every skin tone! I feel like it can brighten your hand.

有無數小小銀色亮粉的深藍色，適合每種膚色！我認為他會讓膚色顯白。

By the way, I found this (<- click!) and I love it! omg... it's so pretty!!

順道一提，我發現這個（<-點他連結）我超愛的！超美的！！

3 of OPI The Muppets collection

<from L to R>
Designer... De Better! (C07)
Rainbow Connection (C09)
Divine Swine (C13)

I got the 3 of OPI The Muppets collection polishes. This collection is so fun! The movie " The Muppets" will be in the theaters on Thanksgiving. Many company release their corporation with this movie. OPI launched 12 colors, 6 glitters colors are all awesome! I wanna get them all, but I'm pretty controlled!! I'm so glad the display from OPI finally get some true color (or much similar color) to the really ones this time! They were always untreatable images before!

As always, I am gonna be working on the reviews of these, but I'll try to finish butter London's Big Smoke first!

我今天買了三瓶OPI The Muppets系列的指甲油，這個系列都很有趣！「The Muppets」這部電影將在今年感恩節上映，很多公司也出了和他們合作的系列產品。OPI這個系列共有12瓶，有六瓶亮片指甲油，都超酷的！我好想全部帶回家，可是我還蠻有自制力的！我很開心這次OPI的形象廣告和擺飾終於有終於原色（或是比較接近原色），以往他們的色差都超大，根本不能參考！

一如往常的我會寫心得，但我會先把欠著的butter London的Big Smoke寫完先！

deborah lippmann - Across The Universe (update)

2011-11-01T21:42:00.003-05:00

deborah lippmann is one of the most expensive brand in the market, I've heard about how amazing it is for a long long time, finally, I got my very first one. I was sooooooo excited about it and did some research online, I did not wanna spend 18 USD get a color that I will think just so so. I was planning to get another color, Naked, but I didn't see it on beauty.com where I placed my order. This color, Across The Universe, caught my eye when I first see it. I had high expectation for this one, but to be honestly, I am a little bit disappointed! Tell you why later.

deborah lippmann是現在市面上最貴的指甲油之一，我聽說他非常的驚人好用已經好久了，終於我買了人生中第一瓶來試試看。我超興奮的再網路上找了些資料，因為不想花了18塊美金結果買到一瓶讓我覺得就只是還好的顏色。我本來還要買另一個顏色「Naked」，但在beauty.com沒看到所以沒買到。這個顏色「Across The Universe」我第一眼看到就想要買他了，對他有超高的期待，但說真的，我有些失望...等等告訴你為什麼。

The bottle is very elegant and neat, and the quality is very nice. From the appearance, it definitely worth the money. It is free of Formaldehyde, Toluene and Dibutyl Phthalate just like butter London, and it also does not test on animals.

瓶身外觀非常的高雅，質感非常好，從外觀看來絕對值得它的價錢。他和butter London一樣沒有甲醛，甲苯和鄰苯二甲酸二丁酯，而且他沒有在動物身上測試。

It has 0.5 fl oz/ 15ml, same as OPI, essie, and China Glaze, compare with butter London which only has 0.4 fl oz/ 11 ml and costs 16 USD, deborah lippmann is actually cheaper!

容量和OPI、essie和China Glaze一樣都是0.5 fl oz/ 15ml，相較於butter London的0.4 fl oz/ 11 m卻需要16塊美金來說反而更便宜！

The brush is quite thin for me, it's pretty similar to essie and butter London, thinner than China Glaze and of course OPI. For this color particularly, the thin brush does not hard to work with.

刷頭對我來說屬於比較細的，和essie和butter London的差不多，比China Glaze和OPI來的細，對這顏色來說並不難使用。

<from L to R>
essie, butter London, deborah lippmann, China Glaze, and OPI

Now, it comes the reason why I am kindda disappointed.
1. Pigmentation:
For such high price, I expect the color payoff will be very nice, but it's not! It is not very bad, or not bad, it's just average! Maybe because I heard too many compliments about it, with too high expectation, the average pigmentation is kindda disappointed! To get the color form the bottle, needs 3 coats, which many glitter polishes do. The picture below is one coat. (middle one got a thicker coat!)

現在來告訴你為什麼我有些失望的地方。

1.顯色度：

對這麼高單價的指甲油來說，我預期他會有很好的顯色度，但並不是這樣！他並不是非常差或是差，它就是很普通、一般般。也許是我聽到太多對他的讚美並有太高的期待，這種很普通的顯色度讓我有點失望！若要得到從瓶身看到的顏色需要擦三層，就像很多亮片指甲油一樣。下方的照片是指擦一層的樣子。（中指稍微厚一些）

The base color is translucent navy blue, it may be the reason why the color payoff isn't that great! It has many small blue glitters and tons of chunky green and light blue sparkles. Because the sparkles are so many, it's very easy to apply on nails. Many old school glitter polishes have the problem that the sparkles are difficult to apply on nails, end up always just pretty in the bottles and on the brushes, rarely on nails. deborah lippmann's do not have this problem!

底色試辦透明的海軍藍，也許這又是為什麼他顯色度並非最好的關鍵！它有小的藍色亮片以及很多綠色和淡藍色的大亮片。因為他大亮片非常多所以非常容易擦在指甲上，很多以往的亮片指甲油多半會有個問題就是很難擦在指甲上，常常只是很美的在瓶子裡或刷子上，但deborah lippmann的指甲油並不會又這個問題，很好上！

2. Shines:
This is the biggest disappointment! I'm used to the super glassy shine from OPI, I thought this gorgeous color must be awesome under sun light, but it is not AT ALL!!! I think maybe because 3 coats end up actually covered lots sparkles and the base color is not high shine, so the result is quite boring! It will need a high shine top coat!!

2.光亮度：
這是最讓我失望的地方！可能因為我太習慣OPI那項烤漆一般的光亮度，讓我想像這麼美的顏色應該在太陽底下會超正點，但他一點也不！有可能是因為擦了三層，讓很多亮片都被蓋住了，而它本身指甲油的底色並不光亮，所以結果有些暗淡！他會需要一個很光亮的top coat!!

This is under direct sun light. The sparkles are hard to notice.

這是在陽光直射下，大亮片不容易被發現。

This is under natural light. The sparkles are more obviously instead.

這是在自然光下，反而亮片比較明顯。

There is one thing I was pretty impressed: it dry very fast! Being a glitter polish, it can be dried that fast is very nice! Especially when I applied 3 thick coats, it still can dry in a short time. Also, with 3 coats application, it's not end up super thick on the nails, actually looks like very natural.

有一點讓我印象很深刻就是他乾的速度很快！就一個亮片指甲油來說，他乾的速度很不錯，尤其是在擦了三層後還可以在短時間內疚乾了。而且擦了三層看起來在指甲上並不會很厚，還蠻自然的！

I just got it today and wear it for lees than a day, I can't tell how about the lasting. It will be updated. Over all, I will give this brand another try, next time I will get a non-glitter one to see how it goes!

我今天才拿到他並擦了他不到一天，還不知道他持久度如何，將會再做更新。總之，我會在試試看這排子的其他顏色，下次買非亮片指甲油看他的表現如何！

<11/04 UPDATE>
After shower this morning, my nails turned into this....

so... it's how many days?.... 3 days maybe? = ="

I did this for my dearest friend, Gina. Hope you like it, miss you <3 (If you don't know Rilakkuma...where have you been? jk! please visit their official blog here! )

拉拉熊/懶懶熊真的是超火紅的這幾年在亞洲！他真的超級可愛！他和他的妹妹(我蠻確定的，但請指正我)真的是到處出現，我超多朋友都抄愛她們的！我做這個彩繪送給我親愛的朋友：阿婆同學！希望妳會喜歡～想你喔<3 (如果你不認識拉拉熊/懶懶熊...怎麼可能？開玩笑的！請參考她們的官方部落格)
他們很簡單做就像Hello Kitty的熊朋友一樣(<-點他去他的教學)，熊類得都很簡單呴？哈哈！就讓我們開始做這超級可愛的指甲彩繪吧！

Apply light brown polish as base, here I used OPI A-Taupe The Space Needle (T24).

搽上淺咖啡色當底色，這裡我用 OPI A-Taupe The Space Needle (T24)。

Use white to draw a sort of oval shape at the center, try to draw the bottom part more straight.

用白色指甲油在指甲中間畫上類似橢圓形，試著讓底部呈現比較平直。

For some reason, this picture looks mate....

Draw to dots, between round and oval, on the each side above the white oval.

在白橢圓形的上方兩側畫上兩個點，介於圓形和橢圓形中間。

Draw a dot and a "^" shape underneath, Apply top coat and done!

在白色橢圓形上畫上一個點，在下面畫上"^"，在搽上top coat就完成了！

See, they are different! Which one you prefer?

看！他們兩個長得不一樣，你比較喜歡哪個呢？

Repeat the same process to make Korilakkuma, then draw a red dot at the bottom.

Korilakkuma重複同樣的步驟，加上一個紅色的點在最下方。

Make 4 tiny dot on the red dot to create a button, apply top coat, then done!

在紅點上畫上四個小小白點，讓他變成紐扣，搽上top coat，就完成了！

Hello Kitty Nail Art / Hello Kitty指甲彩繪

2011-10-25T12:27:00.001-05:00

Everybody loves Hello Kitty...ok, sooooooo many people love Hello Kitty! I totally remember once I did a 3D Hello Kitty for a client, she was so excited and gave me a big hug! Hello Kitty just can cheer every girl up!!
I'm not a big Hello Kitty fan, but sometime still can't withstand her! There is a thing in my mind for a long time: I remember super long time ago, like 20 years, Hello Kitty wore yellow tee, blue gallus trousers, and red bow, and My Melody had pink hat (ears), I always thought Hello Kitty was a BOY! Don't know when it became Hello Kitty always wears pink and My Melody has red hat (ears), and Hello Kitty has a boy friend!! It always confuse me, 'cause I still have lots stickers that I got when I was like 5-6 years old, and they are so different to Hello Kitty and My Melody now! Who can tell my are they really changed or just my stickers are fake!!!!! = ="
Anyway... back to the nail art. Hello Kitty seems very easy to draw, but I found actually she is very difficult to make perfect or even just looks alike! The shape of her face is not easy, and also the most difficult part is the position between her eyes, nose, bow, and the ears. Today we skip her face shape and ears, just pretend whole nail bed is her face, it makes things much easier!

每個人都喜歡Hello Kitty...好吧！超多人喜歡Hello Kitty! 我記得有一次我幫一個客人做了一個3D的Hello Kitty在她指甲上，她超開心的給了我一個大擁抱！Hello Kitty就是可以讓人感到很開心！
我並不是非常喜歡Hello Kitty，但偶爾還是抵擋不了她的魅力！有件事我一直很困惑：我記得超久以前，大概20年前吧？Hello Kitty是穿著黃色的T桖、藍色吊帶褲、和紅色蝴蝶結；My Melody是有粉紅色帽子(耳朵)，我小時候一直以為Hello Kitty是男生！不知何時開始，Hello Kitty開始穿粉紅色，而My Melody則開始戴紅色帽子(耳朵)，而且Hello Kitty居然還有男朋友了！我到現在還有小時候大概5-6歲得到的一堆貼紙，和現在她們的造型都不一樣！誰能告訴我她們是不是有改變過，還是難道我小時候的貼紙是假的！！？？ = ="
回歸正題，Hello Kitty看似很簡單畫，但其實我發覺還蠻困難畫的像！她的臉型不容易，更難的是她五官、蝴蝶結和耳朵彼此之間的位置分配。今天我們跳過她的臉型和耳朵，讓整個指甲當成她的臉，這樣會簡單很多！

I have a Hello Kitty contact lenses case, I don't know who the bear is, maybe her friend? (I told you, I'm not a big fan of her.) We will make two of them on our nails, shall we?!

我有個Hello Kitty的隱形眼鏡盒，我不知道那隻熊是誰，她的朋友嗎？(說過我不是很死忠Hello Kitty的)，我們就讓她們一起出現在我們的指甲上吧！

Apply white polish as base color.

搽上白色指甲油當底色。

Make 5 dots on the top right as a guide line for the bow.

在右上角點五個點當作是蝴蝶結的根據。

The edges are smooth and round.

蝴蝶結的邊是圓弧狀的。

Draw two ovals about the middle of the nail.

畫兩個橢圓形在指甲的中間。

Draw yellow nose and 3 lines each side, then here is Hello Kitty.

畫上黃色的橢圓形當作鼻子和各三條線在兩側，我們就得到了Hello Kitty了。

Give "Shatter" one more chance! 給爆裂指甲油一次機會！

2011-10-18T16:02:00.000-05:00

Remember when OPI black shatter came out, everyone was crazy about it, and it's been sold out everywhere, then all the sudden, almost every brand launches their whatever shatter, crackle, or crackle... Now, many people get bored with them, and even think they are ruining the manicure. I even heard my sister-in-law says it looks so bad, just like sharpies... haha! So, I think why not show you that shatter can be more fun, not only one finish you can get, maybe you will take them out and give it another shot?!

記得當初OPI開始發售他們的第一瓶黑色爆裂指甲油時，每個人都為之瘋狂，所有地方都賣光了，接著忽然間幾乎美個品牌都有了他們自己的爆裂指甲油。現在，很多人都對他感到無聊了，更有人覺得他反而破壞了原本擦得美美的指甲油，我甚至聽我大姑說她覺得看起還很醜，像是奇異筆畫過的...哈哈！所以我想，為何不示範一些不同的方式使用他，而不是永遠就單單一種結果，也許你會把你的拿出來在給他一個機會？！

First of all, there are three things you should know about shatters: First, they dries as matte, that's why my sister-in-law says it looks like sharpies! Some people don't mind, but if you don't like the finish, please apply top coat, it will look much better! Second, we all know they finish differently every time, and also, on different finished polishes, they will shatter differently! For example, the picture below shows you on the glitter polishes, it gets smaller and tighter gaps, but on the smoother finish polishes, the gaps are wider and bigger. Finally, the shimmery shatters will get less effects than pure color shatters.

首先，有三件事你必須知道：第一、爆裂指甲油乾了之後是無光澤的，這就是為什麼我大姑覺得像奇異筆了！有些人不在意，但如果你在意的話，請勿必搽上一層top coat，他們就會好看很多。第二、我們都知道他每次爆裂的結果都不一樣，而且在不同表面的指甲油上，也會有部同的表現，像下面照片，在亮片指甲油上，他裂紋就比較密而且小 ; 但在平滑面上他裂紋就比較大而且寬。最後，如果是有亮粉的爆裂指甲油，他裂的效果就會比較不明顯。

Here I'm gonna show you some different ways to use shatters. Hope you like them and try it next time!!

這裡我示範了一些不同的擦法，希望你會喜歡並且下次也試試看喔！

Orly GelFx - Foil Remover Wrap

2011-10-10T11:21:00.000-05:00

I just removed my 1st GelFx nails few minutes ago 'cause there is one lifting happened. I think that because I followed the instruction only applied primer on the tips, not whole nails, but other 9 nails were in pretty good shape.

I use CND's and Orly's wraps this time, well, they were both pretty good actually! I said that I thought CDN's is not very easy to use, but this time I could easily to wrap, it just take time to get used to it. They were tighter than Orly's, so the results were better. The down side was if you were as cheap as me, like to re-use the wraps, it can't be. Orly's were just like traditional foil wraps, and they were better than regular kitchen foil 'cause they are thicker and easy to control. The down side is there are some logos on the wrap, and when the remover liquid get on the logos, they transfer to the fingers, make hands and fingers all black and dirty. Although it can be easily washed, it definitely not very attractive!

我剛剛卸掉了我第一個GelFx的光療指甲，因為有一個指頭的開始脫落，但其他9個指甲都還頗完好的。我想適因為我遵循它的指示只把primer擦在指尖上，沒有擦整個指甲上的關係。

我這次使用了CND和Orly的卸甲片(?)，都還蠻好用的！我之前說我覺得CND的不是很方便DIY用，但這次我倒是用的還不錯，我想只是需要花時間去練習吧！CND的比Orly可以包的更緊，所以卸甲的效果也比較好，但缺點是，如果你和我一樣會回收再利用，它不行！Orly的就像傳統的鋁箔一樣使用，但它比廚房用的還要厚所以更好操作。但缺點是，因為它上面有印些logo，當卸除液遇到那些logo就會印到手和指頭上，雖然很容易洗掉，但絕對沒有很美觀！

Review: Orly GelFx Professional Kit

2011-10-05T15:29:00.001-05:00

There are two boxes in this kit, one is LED lamp and the other is everything else. The LED lamp actually much smaller than I thought and very light weight, which is good for carry around if needed.

在這個組合裡有兩個盒子，一個是LED燈，另一個是其他東西。LED燈很小而且很輕，出乎我意料之外，但對於需要攜帶是很方便的！

It has 10, 20, and 30 second timer, for ORLY GelFx, it needs to be cure for 30 seconds each coat, so it is kind of pointless to have 10 and 20 seconds timer, but if you like to use on other brands' products, it may be useful. It also has 5 arrow lights show how much time left.

它有10秒、20秒、和30秒的按鈕，ORLY GelFx每一層都需要30秒，所以對他來說有點不必要設有10和20秒，但如果想要使用其他牌子的產品的話，也就可以使用了。它還有5個箭頭的燈讓你知道還有多少時間完成。

The panel can be removed to cure toe nails, and for clean and sanitize.

底部可以拿掉方便在腳指頭使用或清潔消毒。

It also includes 240x nail wipes, 100x remover wraps, and 50x table covers.

這個組合還有240片指甲用棉片，100片卸甲鋁箔，和50張桌紙巾。

The nail wipes are pretty similar to what I am using.

這指甲用棉片和我現在使用的分常相似。

HandsDown's one (left) is softer and thiner, the Orly's one seems stronger. I love these wipe, there are so easy to use!

HandsDown的（左）比較柔軟和薄，Orly的好像比較結實，我超喜歡這種棉片，他們超方便的！

< left: HandsDown ; right: Orly >

I want to try the remover wraps so bad! I have CND's but I never used them, because it's quite difficult to use by myself, and the cotton pad is huge that almost cover 1/3 of my finger!! Orly's wrap is made by foil, just like the old fashion foil wraps. I will give it a try when I need to take off my gel nails.

我超想要試試看卸甲鋁箔的，我之前有買CND的，但我從來也沒用過，因為它不是很好DIY使用，而且上面的棉片超大的，幾乎佔滿我手指的1/3！Orly的比較像傳統的是用鋁箔，等我需要卸掉指甲時我會試試看。

<left: CND ; right: Orly>

< CND >

< Orly >

There's one thing that caught my eye, the DRY brush. From the instruction, it's used after base coat, to brush through the nail surface, kind of take off the excess, which is different to other brands that I used.

組合裡有一個很有去的東西：Dry brush，從說明上看來在底膠之後，有點像是去除多餘的凝膠，和其我用過的他牌子很不同。

The cuticle pusher is very very similar OPI's PusherGuard sensitive cuticle pusher.

甘皮推除棒和OPI's PusherGuard給敏感指緣用的非常類似。

< top: OPI ; bottom: Orly >

Orly's one is bigger and sharper compare to OPI's one, which is designed for sensitive cuticle and student use. Using Orly's pusher is easier to clean up cuticle, but also easy to hurt cuticle, needs to be careful.

Orly的比OPI的大和尖銳，OPI的是特別設計給敏感指緣和學生使用。Orly的很容易推除指甲表面上的死皮，但也容易傷到指緣，所以需要特別小心。

< left: OPI ; right: Orly >

So, here comes the fun part, no, wait.... these are just primer, base coat, and top coat. I always apply primer on the entire nail surface, but according to Orly, you only need to put the primer on the tip of nails, which is new to me.

好玩的部份來了，喔～等等...這裡是primer （我不知道中文叫這個什麼？平衡液？底膠？）、底膠和封膠。我之前都是把primer擦整個指甲，但根據Orly，只需要擦在指尖上，對我來說頗新鮮的。

Ok, now the fun part comes. There are 12 colors in this kit, each one has 0.3fl oz/ 9ml. The color range is pretty good, you have sort of nude, light color, some bright, neon pink and red, and also some dark colors. There are total 32 colors from GelFx now, same as OPI, they put their famous nail polish colors into gel, so you can have your favorite color for longer lasting, shinier, and stronger gel nail.

好了，好玩的部份真的來了。這組合裡共有12個顏色，每個顏色有0.3fl oz/ 9ml。你擁有從自然的裸色、亮色系或螢光粉紅、和一些深色。GelFx目前出了32個顏色，和OPI一樣，他們把熱銷的顏色作成了凝膠產品，所以你可以擁有你喜愛的顏色更持久、更閃亮。

The bottle is thin and tall, bigger than Shellac (0.25fl oz/ 7.3ml) , but smaller than Gelish (0.5fl oz/15ml) . I like GelFx's bottle the most, the handle of brush (lid?) is super easy to work with, but because the bottle is thin and hold good amount of product, the gel is almost reach the rim. There is much more than you need product every time take out the brush from the bottle, so need to be aware. The consistency is pretty liquid.

它的瓶身瘦和高，比Shellac大瓶，但比Gelish小。我最喜歡GelFx的瓶子，它的刷子把手（瓶蓋？）非常的好使用，但因為瓶身瘦的關係和有不錯的產品容量，凝膠幾乎要滿到瓶口，所以每次把刷子拿出來，凝膠量都會比需要的多很多，要特別注意。濃度還蠻稀的。

The brush is average between Shellac and Gelish.

刷子介於Shellac和Gelish之間，頗普通。

Soak off my Gelish nail

2011-09-28T16:38:00.000-05:00

I've been wear Gelish gel nail for 3 weeks, it's in pretty good condition, no lifting and only chipped a tiny bit. (but I did work a lot and lots of chores) I am very impressed!

我的指甲用Gelish凝膠已經三個星期了，都保持很好的狀態，沒有脫落，也只有一丁點脫漆（？我不知道中文要怎麼說 :P）（但是我做工作和很多家事）我很驚艷！

<1 day/ 第一天>

<7 days/ 第七天>

<14 days/ 第14天>

<21 days/ 第21天>

Since I was gonna take them off, I thought why not show you how I soak them off! You can also do this at home if you don't wanna get it done by professional, it's very easy!

既然我要把它卸掉，我想為何不秀你我怎麼做的！你也可以在家裡自己做如果你不想去請美甲師卸，很容易的！

You need: 100% Pure Acetone / Cotton ball or pad / Aluminum foil (cut into small pieces) / Files / Cuticle oil / Cuticle pusher or orangewood stick.

你需要：純丙酮 / 棉花或化妝棉 / 鋁薄紙（裁成適合大小）/ 磨刀 / 指緣油 / 推棒

I like to file the surface a little, don't file too much, otherwise, you don't need to soak them off, right? I feel like they get soaked easier if they've been filed. This is optional, it's need to be done if soak acrylic nails, but for gel, you don't need to. Be careful don't file your natural nails!

我喜歡稍微磨一下表面，不要磨太多，要不然你就不用卸他們了，對吧？我覺得如果稍微磨一點會比較容易被溶解。這是不一定要做的，如果是卸水晶甲就得磨表面，但凝膠甲並不需要。小心不要磨到你的指甲。

Then, this is also optional, I like to put some cuticle oil on the cuticles, cause my skin is very dry and pure acetone tend to make it more dry.

接著也是不一定要做的，我喜歡在指緣抹一點指緣油，因為我皮膚很乾，純丙酮常常讓他們更乾。

Soak cotton balls or cotton pads with pure acetone, put on nails and wrap them with aluminum foil. Then wait 15 minutes. (may be different by products.)

把棉花球或化裝棉沾滿純丙酮，放在指甲上，用鋁箔包起來等15分鐘（因不同品牌而異）。

After 15 minutes, I like to twisted the wraps then took them off. The gels polishes are almost gone! I found that I need to wait more longer because the OPI base gels are still not been soak yet! In the pictures below, the shinny parts were OPI base gels!

15分鐘後，我喜歡稍微轉一下鋁箔然後拿掉它，幾乎所有的凝膠都掉了！我後來發現我應該要等更久一些，因為OPI的基底膠還沒有被溶解，下面的照片亮亮的部份就是OPI的基底膠。

Then gently push all the excess gel off using cuticle pusher or oreangewood stick. It should be very easy to clean up. Finally, I use smoother(very high grit file) buffed out the surface, then massaged with cuticle oil.

然後用推棒把殘餘的凝膠推掉，應該很容易就可以清理乾淨了。最後，我用拋光棒（很細的磨棒）稍微拋光一下表面，然後用指緣油按摩一下。

You can see the nails still be in very good condition after take off gels. My tips are slightly thin because I buffed a lot before, but I filed them down anyway (I prefer short nails).

Overall, I found Gelish gel is super easy to be soaked, when I done with all the wrapping with my left hand, and was doing my right thumb, the left thumb already looked like the picture above! I used to soak OPI's like 30 minutes, and still need to push them off a lot, but for Gelish, they were almost all gone when I took off the wraps! Next time I will try to use Gelish base gel and top seal, to see how they work!

你可以看到在卸甲後的指甲狀態還是很好。我的指尖有些薄是因為我之前拋光很多的關係，但

反正我把他們磨短了（我比較偏好短指甲）。

總之，我發現Gelish凝膠非常好被溶解，當我包完我左手要包我右手大拇指時，左大拇指已經脫落的像上面照片那樣了！我以前卸除OPI凝膠的時候大概得花30分鐘，而且還要推掉很多殘膠。但Gelish卻幾乎都掉了在拿掉鋁薄紙的時候！下次我要試試看用Gelish的基底膠和封膠，看他們如何！

Nail Polish for Fall 2011

2011-09-23T17:35:00.001-05:00

I saw many people were doing their "polish for fall," and I think it's interesting and helpful; also, when I did my recent new polishes review, I said those color are nice for fall. Today, I'm gonna pick some color that in my collection and I think they are perfect for wearing in fall!

我看到很多人在做「適合秋天的指甲油」這個主題，我覺得很有去也對大家很有幫助，而且當我再做最近新買指甲油的心得時，也說他們是適合秋天的顏色，所以今天我打算從我的指甲油中找出一些也很合適在秋天擦得顏色和你分享！

Taupe / 灰褐色

Taupe is always super wearable and a good color for all skin tone, in fall particularly it looks even nicer and elegant.

灰褐色永遠都是超級好搭配和適合所有膚色的一個顏色，特別再秋天，它特別的適合和很高雅。

OPI You Don't Know Jacques! (F15)

NARS Bad Influence

Sephora By OPI Under My French Coat

Red Wine / 酒紅色

Red nail is many people all time favorite, in fall, we can choose darker red, such as red wine, burgundy, or ruby.

紅色指甲深受很多人的喜愛，在秋天，我們可選擇一些比較深得紅色，像是酒紅色或是紅寶石等。

OPI Malaga Wine (L87)

OPI Royal Rajah Ruby (I52)

OPI The One That Got Away (K08)

(for some reason, Malaga Wine looks brighter in picture, it's deeper in fact!)

(Malaga Wine照片中比實際上看起來亮一些，實際上比較暗沉)

Other / 其他

I also chose some colors that not in particular category, but I think they look flirty in fall.

我也選了些沒又特定類別的顏色，我認為他們也很適合秋天。

OPI My Private Jet (B59) - Bronzy base is definitely full color, microgillter brighten it up, makes it more interesting.

褐色的底色絕對是秋天的顏色，細細的亮片讓指甲亮起來，看起來比較有趣。

OPI Here Today...Aragon Tomorrow (E48) - dark muddy green, almost black, is not too dark as winter color, just like the leaves turn dark and going to turn brown.

深沼澤綠，幾乎快像黑色，不會太深向冬天的顏色，就像葉子在秋天漸漸轉深色就快要變紅遍棕色的時候。

OPI INK Suede B61 - any suede, mate finish is going to be nice in fall, especially purplish blue.

任何霧面的指甲油都很適合秋天使用，尤其是這種帶紫色調的藍色。

OPI Louver Me Louver Me Not (F13) - pinkish purple brings a bit of brightness, for more fun in fall.

帶點紅色調的紫色讓指尖比較不暗沉，為秋天帶來點樂趣。

There are lots other colors will look nice in full, here just some colors in my collection that I will wear in fall. Hopefully it's helpful!

還有很多很好的秋天顏色，這些只是從我的指甲油中挑出我會再秋天使用的。希望能帶來點幫助！

ibd Color Gel Collection Kit

2011-09-20T18:40:00.004-05:00

Here are the swatch of two ibd color gel collections: "Brites Color Gel" and "Peace, Love, and ibd Color Gel." The qualities and pigmentations actually very good! I was surprised how pigmentive of almost all of them (except Groovy).

這裡是兩個ibd彩膠組：「Brites Color Gel」和「Peace, Love, and ibd Color Gel」的試色，她們的品質和顯色度非常的好，我很驚訝他們有多麼的顯色（除了Grovy之外）。

ibd Brites Color Gel Collection Kit (neon color)

B1 - Bubblepop: neon pink with silver microshimmer (螢光粉紅帶有銀色亮粉)
B2 - Laser: purple undertone hot pink (偏紫色的亮粉紅)
B3 - Orange-rageous: neon orange (螢光橘)
B4 - Electric Lilac: neon purple (螢光紫)
B5 - Green Light: neon green with silver microshimmer (螢光草綠帶有銀色亮粉)
B6 - Aquamarina: bright teal with silver microshimmer (螢光湖水綠帶有銀色亮粉)

All colors are opaque, one coat can be done! Consistencies are tiny bit liquid in a good way (easy to apply even).

所有的顏色都很顯色，擦一層就可以了！濃稠度稍稍偏稀，但是好的，很容易擦均勻。

ibd Peace, Love and ibd Color Gel Collection Kit (cream color)

P1 - Love Rules: creamy coral pink (粉珊瑚色)
P2 - Good Vibes: creamy purple tone blue (帶紫色的粉藍色)
P3 - Groovy: creamy lilac (粉紫丁香色)
P4 - Peace Out: pale Tiffany blue (粉珊瑚色)
P5 - Flower Power: creamy light yellow (粉鵝黃色)
P6 - That's Hip: creamy pale gray (粉淡灰色)

Only one color, Groovy, is sheer and need 3 coats to show out the color, otherwise, they are all creamy, opaque, and easy to apply. This collection is thicker than Brites, however, the textures are easy to work with.

只有Groovy這個顏色比較稀，需要擦三層去顯出它的顏色，不然其他顏色都是很顯色又好塗得。這個系列相較於Brites系列黏一點，但是很容易擦得濃度。

The box of ibd gel color collection kit actually much smaller than I thought, they are as same hight as OPI nail polish's bottle. Each color gel is 7g/o.25oz., which is pretty good amount. Every kit includes cleanser, bonder, seal, and wipes all in small size. I think they are good qualities and fun to try out, hopefully this helpful!!

ibd色膠組合的盒子比我想相中的小多了，它們的高度大概和OPI指甲油瓶差不多高。每個色膠有7g/o.25oz.，算是很不錯的容量，每個組合都有小容量的清潔劑、底膠、封膠、和清潔棉。我認為他們有不錯的品質可以試試看，希望這些對你有幫助！！
