Lunar new year nailart o(^^o)




Wanna do something special to celebrate Chinese new year aka Lunar new year?
How about nailart???
I tried to made tutorial of this one, so hope it can help:p


Here's the review 

My Tools

Tools that I used:
1. Revlon - Double Twist
2. Revlon -Top Speed - 430 Chili
3. Revlon - White on White 050
4. The Face Shop -BK901 (black )
5. Eternally - 843 (orange)
6. Eternally - 818 (dark brown )
7. Odessa - 07 (soft pink)
8. OPI - Skyfall (gold gliter )
9. toothpicks
10. Glass bowl (as palette )
11. Acetone 

You shouldn't use exactly the same tools , I just used what I already have..
apply red color after base coat all over your nails, wait until dry 

Draw outline of the horse using black colour with toothpick, including the eye and nose, then fill the body with light brown polish (I mixed dark brown, orange, and white since I dont have light brown or nude polish ), add some white for the eye and nose  to make it more real.

Write chinese characters Using black polish with toothpick 

Apply gold gliter at the tip of your nails  

Since im righty, it's hard to drew my right nails, so I chose easier design, use black polish with toothpick draw some vine and leaves, then add soft pink over the black leaves.. 
Also draw the Chinese characters, after that apply gold gliter on the tip of nails, wait until all of your nails completely dry, then seal them with top coat and voila!!!
So hope it can help and try it!!!  Mention me if you try it at instagram / twitter  @justcelli #byJustcelli and don't forget to give me some coments..Thank you xo

Year of the horse!!!

Are you guys excited to welcoming the year of Horse??
Umm...okay maybe some of you dunno about these things,  don't worry I'll explain :)
What is year of horse?  It's one from twelve zodiac according chinese. For this2014 Chinese new year aka Lunar year  will be celebrate on Jan 31,and will be year of horse.... It's lunar year because it's count according lunar or moon, I also dunno how to count it lol... but every year won't be celebrate at the same date...
You can click here for further information...

What about the other 11 zodiac beside horse ?
1. Mouse
2. Ox
3. Tiger
4. Rabbit
5. Dragon
6. Snake
7. Horse *
8. Goat
9. Monkey
10.Rooster
11.Dog
12.Pig
Why these animals ? According story that I heard, long long loooonng time ago there's one God held a race for these zodiac position , so they're the winners....  Also some people belief that dog and cat become enemy because of this race.....  Is that for real?  Only heaven know actually...
Check this out to learn more about Chinese zodiac

So what Chinese people do to celebrate Lunar new year?  It depends , but mostly we will gather with the "Big" family to eat together, give red envelopes to kids and parents (usually you will receive red envelopes until your twenties or until you married , after married it's ur turn to give ur parents ), cleaning house before the big day ( Chinese people believe if you clean on that big day, you also sweep away your fortune ) ,pray to Gods and ancestors.....

And I did nailart to welcoming the year of horse. ...

Wohooo.... 2014 is here!!!  My second new year eve abroad but this time my mom come to visit me.  How's ur new year eve? We spent it at Clarke Quay ,there's some attraction such as Good Fellas band, games, and shows....It was awesome: )  2am we decided to back home, quite hard to found taxi. We saw many drunk peps, one man was passed out and his friends left him but fortunately one foreign woman has a heart like an angel yelled at security to call taxi send him to hospital because none of them take care of him. And i dunno what happened next because I got my taxi.



First day in 2014....
we woke up very late.... around 11... after we prepared we went to Boon Keng mrt station to found the legendary chicken rice Boon Tong Kee.... best chicken rice in town....after that we  went to Sentosa island through vivo then walked crossed the bridge , it just cost 1sgd each person, better than monorail.... we shouldn't queue, and we can watch beautiful scenery just need less than 10 minutes to reach Sentosa island.We went to Siloso and Palawan beaches...  Siloso win my heart... But I'm not comparing with another beach out of Singapore...







Second day...
I plan to meet my sisters from another mother and another father at MBS mall... but i can't contact her anymore because she didn't have internet connection ...so i brought my mom to Garden by the Bay... we just walked a quarter of the garden and sunshine beaten my mom.... sooo hooot..... so we went to MBS mall have lunch, then walked around and sit at bench inside the mall... suddenly i heard familiar voice called my name.. "Celliiii!!!"  ... OMG it was her!!!  Finally we met... after an hour we said goodbye and plan to meet at Surabaya later... So we went to Nex mall at Serangoon mrt station to bought some chocolate and coffee... and my mom decided to bought some toys for my landlord's kids... transformers robot is their favorite toys... since i dunno very well i just guess which one they dont have and ask mom to choose....  It's not a bad idea to choose based of the color.... hahah.... and fortunately they didn't have those yet and they was very happy.... and we planned to go Johor the next day.. Then someone knocked my door.... OMG ko Martono (my landlord ) gave us durian mouse..... gain weight gain weight!!! extremely delicious!!!




Third day...
We went through Bugis mrt then walked to bus station.... 2.5 sgd each person.... hmmm quite cheap right... ok we went to Singapore's immigration then Malaysia's immigration and I got trouble because they thought that I am a worker who want to extent visa but I'm not... ( yes i did 2months ago with 2 of my classmate to extended my visa because I took short course for Diploma in professional makeup artistry but we caught at Singapore's immigration when we went back from Johor,so I won't do the same thing again!!) We passed... so we just walked around City square mall, watched 47 Ronin which is Wow.. I like it... have some lunch and snacks then 4.30 went back since I knpwknow I will get another trouble in immigration... and trawl!!! This time WE caught not just me but my mom also even we haven't reach the immigration office... two officer called us and asked us to go inside machine, look at the camera and the machine blown us with some air... and they let us in... no more problem at immigration office then... phew!!!  We went back to bugis, have dinner and walked around there and we decided to back and take a rest.... after i took a bath i chat with my landlord... they were wrapping gifts for their kid's friend and for their second son whom will has birthday at 20th January.... it was lot of fun and i back to my room found my mom already sleep... so I decided to try write this blog but always failed when I tried to post it.... not just once or twice....and I choose to sleep then.
