NOTD: Tuxedo nails; RMK liquid foundation

Saw this a while back and I really liked the design, it seems fun and easy to do. I copied the design down into my little notebook and never forgot about it since. I wanted to do something for Halloween but orange with black polka dots later, I realised that seeing that many polka dots on my nails disturbs me.

So Tuxedos it is. I meant to do the ring finger differently - a lady in a red dress with a string of pearls on her "neck" but I forgot so ah the heck with it. It wasn't very neat because the black is actually GW Paints and not nail polish. It has a matte finish so I had to coat it with top coat to make it shiny and nice.

Items used:
GW paint in Chaos Black
GW paint in Blood Red
Elianto top coat
Elianto white nail polish
Stage base coat

Just to rant, I hate Stage base coat cause it stinks to high heavens. I hate Elianto's pink coloured base coat (the expensive one) cause it takes a bloody long time to dry and even after a while and if and when it does dry it remains sticky.

Thinking of getting a better top and base coat without having to go rob the bank. /sigh

E called me on her way to KL to ask if I still wanted the RMK liquid foundation. I happily said yes. Thankfully I just gotten my pay check or it would have been a no.

RM155?! What happen to the good old days when the most expensive foundation you ever heard of only cost RM120? Long gone!

I wasn't sure of my colour so I told E I wanted the lightest yellow base shade. I remember checking the internet and it was 101 or something. When I got it, I got a heart attack. It wasn't a shade I was expecting. It looked quite dark and yellow. Thankfully, the colour blended in nicely. Ahhh, now my face and neck is the same colour. For once anyway :P

The texture is very light and gel/water base type and blends easily. While others ended up with dewy looking skin, I ended up with a matte face. Oh well, not a big issue and it can be considered good in some ways.

Definitely need a base to go with this and the colour doesn't change to a different funky shade. Niceeeee.

Coverage is buildable. So far so good. Will post up pictures later
