Leisure 34: How far can ONE color go?

How far can one color go? 

For your daily dose of DIY nail art design, I did a wickedly cute design using only one color -- BLACK.

You will need:

Black polish

Matte finish Polish

Shiny Top Coat

Nail Art Brush

How to do it:

Step 1:

Apply base coat on your nails to protect them. 

If you don't have any proceed with applying the black color right away.

Let it dry. 

Carefully look at this part here, the black color is so shiny and that's the effect of not putting anything yet.

Still shiny nails here.

Step 2:

Put a MATTE finish on your black nails.

This will give a DRY EFFECT on your nails.

Step 3:

Using the SAME color - BLACK and your nail art brush,

put a design over the mattefied black nails.

Step 4: 

You may use a toothpick and a shiny coat to cover ONLY the design you made and

NOT the whole nails because the effect will be useless.

More photos below for a close look on the design.

Paraiso Verde (Koronadal, South Cotabato)

Welcome to Paraiso Verde!!! For travel enthusiasts, Paraiso Verde is one good place for you, your family and friends to drop by.

From our city (General Santos), you can travel going to this paradise via private vehicle or public vehicle (commute). This is situated in Marbel or Koronadal. It is one (1) hour ride from Gensan via bus. Bus fare depends on the kind of bus you will have to ride. Yellow Bus Line's fare will range from 75 pesos to 100 pesos. The 100 pesos fare is for the bus with wifi and television. That's adult and regular price. I haven't asked about children.

 My super friend Kristine.

The entrance fee is Php150 and children below 2 years old are FREE. The cottages differs from its kind but it ranges from Php150 - Php1000+. The Php1000+ is good for pavillion which could be over night.

You are allowed to bring food but you will pay minimum corkage. You are NOT allowed to bring any knife, guns, weapons, sharp objects or the like.

They are known for MOBY WAVE POOL, which I have posted above.

They also cater little customers -- kids in their WIGGLES KID POOL.

They also have the FREESTYLE AREA for swimmers. Plus they offer the ADVENTURA RIVER RAPIDS which sad to say, my friend and I didn't have the chance to explore.

 My lovely friend Kristine Orario.

They are open from 12 noon until 9pm.

Paraiso Verde offers good food. However, it comes along per pack. Since, there are only two of us, we then decided to eat outside the water park.

Welcome to CINCO NINAS. The people and attendants here are so nice and friendly. They use the language Ilonggo. Ilonggo is one of the 8 major languages in the Philippines. My friend Kristine speaks Ilonggo fluently because she is one. I am a trying hard Ilonggo speaker, but I can. It's one of the languages I know how to speak.

 I really love the black tuna sashimi.

I find joy in eating raw fish.

 I believe this is the seafood guisado.

It really tastes good and it is very affordable. 

This serving is good for 3-4 persons which minimum appetite.

Another favorite dish, inihaw na pusit.

This is white squid.

It does look good but TASTES EVEN BETTER.

I am at my best when I am with one of the best.

Cheers to our friendship that knows no bounds.

Cheers to almost a DECADE of friendship.

Thank you for staying at my best and never giving up at my worst!

You are one of the FEW people who stood beside me when..

I was too much to handle.

It has been almost 2 years since we last met and yet..

when we did, the bond that connected us for so long is still there.

To our journeys in the past and travels in the future..

Leisure 33: SPONGBOB and FRIENDS

Whatever you can see here are purely done out of imagination and using both left and right hand. This is to challenge my self how far my left hand could draw.

I really put emphasis on my right hand because it is my LEFT hand's art work.

Quote of the day:::

"I think it is not how one could perfectly draw using his or her dominant hand. It is what the NON DOMINANT hand can do..."

Leisure 32: Floral

Hello Ladies and Ladies wanna be...

Good day!

I really apologize for the late post about this nailart design. I was so busy with school and my mini business these past days.

So, let's start!!!

You will need:

3 Pastel colors (I have chosen my 3 favorite colors: pink, blue and purple)
White Polish
Dotting tool
Matte finish
Top coat (shiny)

How to do it:

 Step 1:

Using your base coat, apply it on your nails to protect the natural nails.

As you can see, I applied purple on the fingers and left the thumb nail and ring finger with white polish.

These fingers with white polish will serve as your accent fingers.

Step 2:

Apply MATTE FINISH on your white finger nails so it will look dry.

Using a dotting tool, use a different pastel color and dot it on your white finger nails.

This will serve as the center of your flower.

Step 3:

Using your pink polish, dot the petals.

Cover it with Shiny top coat.

ONLY THE FLOWER SHOULD BE COVERED WITH SHINY TOP COAT.

Do not include the white part since you have applied MATTE finish for it.

That way, it will look as though your floral design popped out of the white back ground and it will look like a sticker.

 Step 4:

Cover the purple nails with shiny finish. 

DONE!!!

Quote of the day:

To all women I know...

Do not let others tell you what are your limits.

because..

You are more than capable of what you think you are..

Have fun everyone!!!
