Okay okay I’ll stop with all the 80s song reference. At least, for this week 😛

First of all, please excuse the conditions of my cuticles. I have a bad case of hangnail, and even with heaps of cuticle oil, hand creams and cuticle scissors, there’s barely any improvement. My nails haven’t been in the best of conditions the past few weeks, hence the lack of nail polish swatches. If you have any solutions or recommendations on how I can solve this hangnail problem of mine, please, I’m all ears.

Anyway, back to the nail polish. This time, it’s ORLY’s Magnetic FX in Opposites Attract.

Happy hump day, chickens!

It’s been a while since I’ve done an Ask Me Anything post. It’s when I open the floor to you, when you can ask me, well, anything! Let’s have a virtual cuppa and have a chat, shall we?

Do you have any questions, beauty or related to blogging? Even if you don’t, feel free to drop in and say hi. Tell me about the latest movie you’ve watched (mine was Batman: The Dark Knight Rises. Watched it on IMAX. Fantastic movie, by the way). Tell me what you’ve bought lately (I bought two pairs of sterling silver earrings online, total cost $9. Score!). Have a problem you can’t seem to solve? A problem shared is a problem halved. You get the picture 🙂

If you have any blogging-related questions, do let me know. It will help me a lot in writing my Bloggie Wednesday posts.

My cuppa tea is ready and waiting for you 😀

I’m a big fan of Aldi supermarkets. Back when Aldi was Lidl (this was in the UK), I used to do most of my grocery runs there. Products are a lot cheaper than regular supermarkets and you can find random junk there for ridiculously low prices. Heck I even bought my Nespresso-like coffee machine from Aldi. Makes pretty damn good coffee, I’ll tell ya. At 79cents a cup! :P.

Anyway, so back to Aldi. During one of my grocery runs, I stumbled upon their beauty range, Lacura. You can find skincare products that cost no more than $20 and makeup no more than $10. I was rather curious as to what the makeup’s like, so I thought I’d give their minerals blush a go.
