Chinese New Year is coming soon, ladies have you plan to pamper yourself? If you have Instagram, you'll see many creative nail manicure. Trim nails are not just for woman but also for kids and man too, we need to know how to take care our nails.

Apart from the millions of likes that you can get on Instagram when you post photos of your nails on such occasions as #ManicureMonday, another great thing about your nail art is that you can experiment with a myriad of new looks and designs every time. In fact, with our simple hacks and tricks below, there is no reason why you can’t create your own homemade salon-worthy nail art right from the comfort of your sofa! To make sure your hands look their absolute best, remember also to get matching jewelry, which you can buy on a bargain at Bloomingdales whenever you use a Discountrue coupon.


1. Tidying Up Your Manicure

The most effective way to get rid of any extra nail polish that gets onto your cuticles is by using a tiny paint brush dipped in nail remover. In addition to eliminating the possibility of fuzzy hairs (such as those left behind by a cotton swab), such a brush has fine bristles that easily get in between your finger’s side wall and its nail.


2. Creating a Perfect French Manicure

Use a rubber band to create your own perfect French manicure at home. First, tie a rubber band in the middle. Then loop one of its ends over your thumb to create some tension on the band. Finally, create a French tip shape by aligning its other end over the top of your nail. This way, you are going to have a curved line that you can use as a stencil when painting the tip of your nail.


3. Create a Cool Ombre Mani

The trick for this one is to use a sponge. Begin by painting your finger nails with your favorite lightest color to act as your base. Then, on a clean flat surface, swirl the two polishes together using a toothpick. Finally, dab a sponge onto the polish mixture a few times and blot it onto your tips!


4. Apply Studs or Rhinestones

This DIY nail art hack uses a toothpick or orange stick. Start by dipping the tip of the stick into your topcoat so that it picks up the stud. This allows you to have control to place it wherever you want to on your nails.


5. Creating a Cool Textured Effect

This hack makes use of a paper towel. All you need to do is to simply paint some generous amount of nail polish onto the paper towel, and then dab it down onto your dry manicure for a Cool Textured Effect of beauty on your finger nails.


6. Removing Stubborn Glitter Nail Polish or Gels

This nail art trick requires you to find some foil. Start by soaking a cotton pad in acetone nail-polish remover. Then place it on each of your finger nails and wrap them in foil for 10-15 minutes. This gets rid of any stubborn glitter nail polish or gel in no time.


7. Creating Flawless Manicure Designs Using Blue Painters Tape as Stencil

This is another DIY nail art trick that you can use to enhance your overall nail beauty. When blue painters tape is used as a stencil to create this kind of Flawless Manicure Designs, it comes right off and doesn’t stick to the polish on your finger nails like many other types of tape do.


8. Creating Streak-free Designs

To make use of this trick all you need is a sharpie. First, apply a base color. Then use a thin sharpie to draw cool DIY streak-free designs of your choice straight on your nail polish. Simple and effective!

Now this coming Chinese New Year or during festive season we can check out these tips to try.

 Are you still in the New Year mood? Chinese New Year is coming soon, lets check out BoutiFU Spring Celebration with Po the Panda, you can visit Po's Village at Sunway Pyramid.

If you like KungFu Panda movie, you'll know of Po. The popular panda character from Kungfu Panda was searching for his village to celebrate the Lunar New Year!

As it turns out, it was all a Lunar New Year campaign by Sunway Pyramid. The popular shopping mall that I love to go with my family members and friends has transformed its Orange Concourse into a scene inspired from Kungfu Panda 3, the latest installment that features Po reunited with his family in the Panda Village. 

I attended the launch in the evening on Tuesday.

The party to celebrate Po finding the Panda Village was in full swing, with 38 children dressed in panda costumes and a huge "lousang" session with the invited guests. 

Two weeks ago, Po was seeing going around the Kuala Lumpur city centre, Petaling Jaya, Subang Jaya and Shah Alam since the final week of December 2015. He was caught strolling at KL Tower, Zoo Negara, KL Bird Park, SS2 night market and the Kota Kemuning park amongst many other places.

Similar like the movie, the mall's BoutiFU Spring Lunar Year features the panda village nestled amidst the mountains, where a Chinese temple lies, surrounded by cherry blossom trees.

My first lou sang of the year with media and blogger friends.

Don't forget to check out the photo booth there because you can take pictures with Po's family, and print immediately as a souvenior.

Traditional Beard Candy and Ting Ting candy are easily found in the mall. This festive shopping can get hectic as we need to shop for ourselves and loved ones. We need to do many surveying and purchase in bulk, at Sunway Pyramid I have no worry as we can find over 900 shops to wander, the mall is a perfect choice for festive shopping and dining. Some shops I have visited recently, it would be the Endless Jewelry that you can shop for J Lo Collection, and Missha skincare/beauty range products from Korea.
