hi abee. how are you?
do you still color your nails? i haven't been around much here...
I'd like to ask what brand/color this teal is if you don't mind. I'm actually into nail polish again and i'm drawn to blues, greys and deep reds. This looks more blue to me (similar to a Cutex in my lil stash 'blue me away') but since you labeled it Teal i trust you hehe.

what's your favorite brand? i'm not a np snob btw. obviously OPI, china glaze etc. are superior in quality but local brands (i like Bobbie) can come up with good hues too and are more friendlier on the budget, though the quality tends to be runny...

hello hello! i've missed you! :))
yes, still do, though my nails are on rest for 2 weeks. plus i've been really really busy with RL, happy busy naman. haha.

this one is OPI Ski Teal We Drop. super super nice color and it was so easy to apply. im not particular with brand, as long as i love the shade. pareho tayo, i love blues, greys and deep reds din. i like purples too. try etude, they have nice greys and neutral colors. show me pics of your nails ah! *cheerssamplesample*

I knew it. I was thinking it looks like it but I wasn't sure so I had to ask. I've been obsessing over STWD like forever (lol drama). Where do you buy your OPIs? Rustans? it's much cheaper in the US no? share me your sources? esp the good buys hehe. Darn I thought I have enough blues already but I have to have this. Just reading that again makes me 'who are you woman?' lol coz i'm usually rational with these stuff. I don't go overboard. Then I have to contradict myself, yo you Do have obsessive tendencies, Exhibit A: RK

naku, im kuripot too! i do my own nails most of the time, except when i need super maayos na nails for an event or something. hanapin ko nga yang Doozi Says Suzi na yan. i checked it online, like ko ang color!

yes, sa rustans or landmark for imported ones. but i also borrow from friends and vice versa. para tipid. haha. my bf's sister has super nice nps too, she has a green na super gusto ko. korean brand eh (i dunno the name) and she bought the nps daw sa festival mall.

im planning to get my nails done tonight, in prep for annebisyosa concert this saturday. haha. got free tickets eh, sayang naman. an excuse to paint my nails too! :P

are you familiar with the brand LA Colors? visited PCX recently and found a somewhat dupe of It's a Doozi Says Suzi with their Plum Wine, though the latter is creme/jelly and Doozi has a little shimmer. The good thing about LA is it's only P89! imported drugstore brand but it's good, not as thick as OPI but it dries fast and has a great gloss. I got a blue too Static Electricity. here's their site http://lacolors.com/Color-Craze-Nail-Polish-1581.html
and you can find plum wine here http://lacolors.com/Nail-Lacquer-1664.html

It's nice you have friends who are into np too. I live so far away from my friends and most of them are overseas na rin. Etude is also in Festival, it's not that korean brand? oh maybe Face Shop?

i had to google annebisyosa concert LOL have a great time! post your nail uli! hehe

[mwabee]

all colors available at pcx? i like raspberry, dark brown, chocolate shimmer, breathless blue, jungle fever and yes, plum wine, static electricity and so many others! :)

nope, not from etude or face shop eh. i'll check again when i see her. nyhoo, didnt go to the concert na. instead went to intramuros for the unofficially yours shoot of angel and jlc. hahahaha. :P

i'm not sure. pero medyo marami sa PCX ATC. eeeee I take back what I said, Plum Wine was a pain to apply. or I don't know if it's just my bottle, the formula was thick and streaky. The one i tried when i just had it was Static and it seemed smooth/easy to apply. Maybe it depends on the color...

I just saw your photo op with them hehe
