// January 2nd, 2008 // 3 Comments » // Nail Love

Although I’m not a regular in the area, this Christmas season led me to visit Serendra more than one time – it was just a great ambience cozy enough to hang out with good friends.

On the 2nd floor, you can see Nail Tropics at a secluded area as you turn left, and it reveals a small, but cozy atmosphere of cushioned chairs. (more…)

Bizzie Lizzie Nail Salon and Day Spa

// July 31st, 2007 // 2 Comments » // Nail Love

My best friend J isn’t crazy about having her nails done in a salon – she gets irritated with the sound of the blower, and isn’t okay with the business of the place, with people running around, and all. My best friend J is one of the people who influenced me to the world of nail pampering, and boy is she just critical and “maselan”. Her idea of nail pampering is a quiet, cozy place, with La-Z boy chairs, and first class service.

And she found it in Bizzie Lizzie.

Bizzie Lizzie is a full service and one-stop nail spa salon situated in Annapolis, Greenhills. Their services include nail art, the usual manicure-pedicure, body massages, waxing, reflexology, and UV nails – a great alternative to acrylic nails, which is described as,

In one of my attempts of taking good photographs, well, this was the best that I could do a few weeks ago ( until I discovered the beauty of good lighting? hahaha! the picture looked like it was about to rain, but really, it was a sunny sunny day! sorry! ) Does it show that even in photography, I am still smitten with beauty products as my subjects? Oh yes, that’s true!

This was my birthday beauty loot from my friends that I received last June ( well, part of! ) . They sure know what this girl’s mind is thinking!

Oh, wow! Even dogs can wear nail polishes too. Elle Woods ( or realistically, Paris Hilton ) would be thrilled to have this for her dog! Give your pets a pet-icure by getting one of these! It’s quick-drying and works in one coat already! Haha, this is just too cute! (more…)

Don’t Go Breaking My Nails…Don’t Go Breaking My Heart!

// July 4th, 2007 // 3 Comments » // Kikay Thoughts, Nail Love

Remember the nails that I was staring at all week, up to the extent that I wanted to have them bronzed ( well, it didn’t push thru, I mean, how can I blog with bronzed hands? Hahahaha! )

This is just a reminder that if you are planning on having your nails grown long to be always careful with your actions! This is high maintenance!

The beautiful manicure only lasted me a week because I was busy packing minerals for the Beauty & Minerals Day, opening containers, and stuff. (more…)

Nails of the Week : Orly French Manicure in Flirty Girl

// July 1st, 2007 // 12 Comments » // Kikay Thoughts, Nail Love

Aren’t they beautiful??? The color, the shape ( squared perfection! ) If you say they’re not, then I’m mad at you ! Hahaha! ( Naw, kidding , just half-mad. Hahaha!).

I have just started giving attention to my nails this year for I felt that I wasn’t getting any younger. I am incredibly high maintenance in terms of doing my makeup and fixing my hair, but when it came to nails, well, I sorta abused them way back. Used to open things using them, and do heavy-duty stuff, being the merciless master. Awww, they must hate me now. But I guess it’s time to make up for my wrongdoings, so I’ve decided to indulge myself in a mani-pedi like an obedient schoolgirl every three to four weeks.
