Pre-Fall Nails...

Today I'm taking a whole day off from work to pamper myself...I was planning on getting a hot stone massage, but then I got up at 8 and watching Anderson Cooper 360 (I LOVE his show...I adored him, hehe) 'till 10am and decided to cleaning up my room until 12...and there goes my hot stone massage appointment...

So then I was thinking to do some grocery shopping, and stuffs...but then I ended at nails salon (O.P.I House), I was about to change my nail polishes only (since I just had my spas last week), but then the girl at the nail salon said "why not doing the mani-pedi spa before the holiday?"...(I was always an easy mark/ people pleaser) so I was like "...ummm yeah let's do this"...and there goes my un-planned mani-pedi spa (with the costs of full body hot stone massage!! that wud be around U$70) *next time I should come on Mon or Thurs when they have 25% off!*

So...yeah, apart from that, I'm loving my hands 'n toes colors! this time I chose different colors, since I cannot decided which colors to choose from, so I picked both for my hands and toes...(what an explanations!! haaha!)

1. O.P.I "Glitzerland" (the Swiss Collection)

- I've been into metallics for nail colors lately...it's pre-fall, and O.P.I just launched their newest Collection (the Swiss Collection)...I'm loving all of 'em but I'm loving the color "Glitzerland" at the first try...It's gold-ish and metallic! I feel like a million dollar...hahaaa

2. O.P.I "Radiance" (the Designer Series)

- This color is dope! It's metallic silver color...and not like any other 'Silver'-ish color that looked like they were more 'grey'-ish than silver, this one is screaming 'SILVER' to the next level...(I'm kinda addicted to nail polishes, teehehe :p). So, yeah at first I wanna do the 'matchy-matchy' hands and toes nail colors, but I wanna do it differently, so this one goes for my toes,,,and it looked flashy!! especially when I'm wearing cute flip flops or open toe shoes...wud be dashing!! (owkieeee...I'm talking too much!)

That was it...my nails are gold and my toes are silver...one of my girlfriend's already calling me "a walking christmas tree"...but hey, at least I have my spirit with me and felt like a million bucks!! woohooooo...

Love,

Kiki ;p

July-August Favorites...

These are some stuffs that's I've been using, and enjoying using, or watching, or listen to for the last 2 months...since this is my first 'favorites' blog...I'm gonna spill everything in one blog...so here they are...

1. L.A.M.B tote bag

My sister in-law got me this bag as a present when she went on a holiday to HK, when I got this bag I can't help it...I fell in love! I love the abstract mash-up colors and the hugeeee size of it makes me wanted to put all my stuffs in it, haha...(thankie mommy aurel! :D)

2. OPI Nail Lacquer: "Miami Beet"

Summer nails are all about 'popping' colors...like Fuchsia, Blue, Yellow, or anything brights. I was wearing green nails on the summer, but this month I'm all about anything 'Darker'...I've been loving purple and pinks all seasons, and I love this "Miami Beet" color from O.P.I that has hint of both colors mixed together, It's not like deep purple but it also has the pink that makes it pop! LOVE IT! :D.

3. Philosophy: Jump Starters

Seriously though, I have a very sensitive (read: Allergic)-oily type of skin...which is painfully harrdd to find the perfect skin products. I heard about 'Philosophy' like 2 years ago when I'm watching Oprah, and she was telling the audience how much she loveeeeed the "Hope in a Jar" moisturizer and named it "One of the best"...so when I was browsing about this items, I said to myself "Why not?? Let's give it a try...Oprah can not be lying about it.." (hahaha...I love her!!!). So I decided to bought the 'Jump Starters' package instead buying separately. And by the second day I use 'em I can already feel the difference!!! Seriously!! I ADORE THEM!!!! and their "Purity face wash" is TO DIE!!! hahahha...I'm tooooo excited it works ;D.

3. Laura Mercier: Tinted Moisturizer spf 20 (oil-free) and Laura Mercier: Foundation Primer (oil-free)

Next ones are what I'd like to call my "Armors" (in Make-up)...if SWAT guys on the movie have their bulletproof vest to cover up their chests, I have these babies to cover up my face! hahaha...I'm not a big fan of 'cakey' make-up for daily use, I always tried to wear my make-up light but still covering my flaws (such as; redness, and blemishes). I've been using M.A.C for years and stil loving it, but I love these LM Tinted Moisturizer 'n Foundation Primer because they can cover my face light but also perfecting my complexion....I can see myself using these babies for a long time hehe :D.

4. Twins Custom-made Pink Thai Boxing Gloves

Hands DOWN!!! I'm LOVING my Pink Boxing Gloves...It's Shocking Pink and It's boxing gloves...lol. I love Boxing for once, and I've been having problems on finding my gloves in ink. So I custom made it and order online...How HOTT is THAT!! lol ;D.

5. The Face Shop: Fake Eyelashes 'XO'

I know some of you HATE fake-eyelashes...but lately I've been kinda flirty and wanting to spice up my make-up look with fake lashes! I learn to apply 'em from YouTube and just naturally learn to adjust it myself...(I'm a fast learner when it comes to things I lovee, haha :p). I use 'em for special times only or whenever I feel a bit flirty and feel to look dapper for work...again, it's fun being a girl! teehehe ;D.

So, That was all...My favorites for the month of July-August...I'd be blogging about my Favorites musics and movies that are worth watching later...I'm sorry if the pictures are blurry or not too focus, I'm taking the pictures from my Blackberry because I haven't got my card reader for my Macbook Air and been thinking of buying a new camera (my old ones are only 7,1MP, so I need a new one)...hehehe.

Color me O.P.I

Lately (for the last 2 mths) I've been checking O.P.I website back and forth and ogling for their collections!! (BIG TIME!). Well, yes...O.P.I were sold in most of Department stores in Jakarta...but one thing that makes me gag, the price has been doubled up and it's ridiculous!! Even when I get the bargain price in amazon, they didn't ship to Indonesia (double suck!).

Then just minutes ago, when I was browsing 'bout healthy food & diet on "Good Housekeeping", it took me by surprise, there sits pretty, on their sponsored links...Shipping Worldwide IS the KEY!! haha

and here's their cute site...not only O.P.I,they also have China Glaze, Essie, and Orly too!! wow...wow!!! and the price...is seriously cheap!! *Immahappyladyyy* ;D

And I have placed my order of O.P.I Nail Envy: Soft & Thin ($10.99)-here they sold for Rp. 350 rb ($35) a piece!!! and Top Coat ($6.99) -here they sold for Rp. 180 rb ($ 18) a piece!!!...with only $ 9 shipping and a normal 14 business days of shipping...I AM PROUD!! ha ha ;D
