NOTD & Review: China Glaze- Flip Flop Fantasy ♡

First things first, something that you definitely are going to learn reading this post is that you should always investigate about the product you are buying!

Why am I saying writing this?

Well let me first start as a normal blog. Today guys I'm talking about a really famous nail polish that have been around: China Glaze- Flip Flop Fantasy!



Flip Flop Fantasy is from thre 2010 summer Poolside Collection. It is a super bright neon pink-coral that REALLY GETS ATTENTION!

Neons are really hard to capture in camera, so it was a pain taking pics of this polish! Please try to imagine the color but much brighter!


SO the story behind this is, the other day I went to a beauty store with a friend and we both bought this same polish! I was so excited for wearing this polish and when I started applying it I have to say that is the hardest polish to apply that I have tried, it never brushes on evenly. Also the formula is really watery. It is so streakey.

I was really disappointed because the color is soooo pretty and also because all my other China Glaze have a really good formula. My answer to my disappointment was investigate!

Neon colors are always like this type of formula! I thought that I was the only one with this experience but I read some forums and apparently I wasn't the only one.

What can you do if you love this polish but it's a nightmare to apply it?

1.- USE 3 COATS! I only apply this polish with 2 coats and I wasn't happy with the result.
2.- If you want a more polished look, apply a white nail polish before applying this polish (neons in general)
3.- Use a top coat! Neons normally dry matte, but not a pretty matte so be sure to apply a top coat!

Well that was it for this post, hope you all enjoy!!

5 tips on: How to deal with a stressful week




Hi guys, today I am doing a post which I had the idea because of the recent weeks that I've had! The past weeks have been extremely stressful, especially with all the tests in school. So in this post I am showing you some tips that may help you with your stressful week!

PS: I'm not an expert but these tips may help you!


1.- Eat gum

One of the recent weeks I was at the point were I was so stressed so the only thing to do was looking online. The thing that almost every article said for dealing with stress was doing yoga, but I didn't had time for yoga so I was looking for a faster option; and that was when I found that eating gum helps. I tried it and it REALLY helps. I totally recommended. My favorite gum is 5 Gum.

2. Drink water

Well for me, all my life I had been obsessed with water, so it hasn't been a problem drinking it, but if you aren't like me and it's really hard for you to drink water try this tip:

Water makes you feel better, fresh and hydratated!


3.- Do sports at least once a week

You don't have to go to a special gym or anything to do this! A good way of doing this is putting a really energetic song in your room and just dancing around! The important thing is that you enjoy it! For me I LOVE jogging!

4.- Surround yourself with good people

Surround yourself with people that makes you happy, it can be your family, friends, boyfriend, etc. But also people who is a good influence for you and not people who is always bringing you down! People that support you!


5.- Leave a day off

Even if your full of busy things to do, give yourself a break, but a break I mean being a littke bit selfie! Take a bath, watch your fav TV show (#PLL), read a book, paint your nails, etc. Last sunday I was really stressed out so what I did is give myself a little treat, taking a lush bath, reading Divergent and doing a pedicure to myself! Here's a pic that I post from my instagram (which is one of the social medias I'm most in):


Hope you guys enjoy this 5 tips, and if you have more tips leave them in the comments below!
