The Nails Fever!

     They say that beauty lies in the hands of a lady. Yes it's true, figuratively and literally!

     There is a part of our hands that really adds beauty especially for girls,  it is no other than our nails. One of the most popular accessory today is the nail polish that we can see in every girl's nails. Nail polish is a lacquer which can be applied to the human finger or toe nails as a covering to protect the nail's plate and decorate. Nail polish originated from China during 3000 BC. During the Zhou Dynasty (600 BC), the royal house preferred to paint their nails with gold and silver nail polishes. Eventually, red and black replaced the gold and silver preference of the royal house. In Egypt, nail polish is known as a mark of the person's social status.  Pale colors are for the lower class and the higher social class wears the red color.

Nail Polish

     Nail polish started with five basic colors namely: clear, red, pink purple and black. As years goes by, many variants of colors were out in the market. There are several types of polishes, first one is the base coat/ hardener, it is a clear or milky- colored formula which is applied before applying the nail polish, it is used to strengthen the nails, adds moisture and secure that the nail polish will not be easily removed days after the application. The next type is the top coat, its a clear formulated polish that is applied after putting the nail polish to completely cover the nail polish, to make the nail polish dries faster and protect it for scratches and peeling. Top coat is also known as "quick dry or fast dry".

    Nail polish has innovated and mark its own part in the fashion history. Today, another innovation for nail polish became popular and known as "Nail Art". The traditional way of nail polishing has transformed into a creative way of designing our finger and toe nails. Nail art has more processes compared to common nail polishing, it deals more on the design and materials which is added to the traditional nail polish. Nail art it also consider now as a fashion activity well- known all through-out the country.

Nail Art

     Nail polishing and Nail art are just two ways to pamper ourselves but always remember that too much is not good. It is advised to have manicure and pedicure twice a month. There's nothing wrong with wanting to have clean and well-decorated nails but safety is always the first priority. It's better safe than sorry.

The Sand Castle

We know its not the ordinary thing we had

To love is  to accept things willingly in our hearts

We've been to sorrows and bad

To good and brand new starts.

All the things seem perfect in our eyes

But something came up and ruin our path

It's been a dream and made the tree dies

strong breeze of wind blew the castle to wrath

I tried to close my eyes not to see the truth

But may ears heard it all and can't take it anymore

You tried get the sand and fix the castle's root

Things had change, and I can't even bore

I saw you wipe your tear

As the wind ruin the castle

I looked back and faced my fear

Our castle was washed away by water swirl

Words are not enough to bring it back

True castles are made of stone not of sand

White paints of it turned to black

We messed it up with a false hand

Love is the castle molded by "us"

But strong winds and water turned it into dust

Tearful goodbyes and lots of fuss

Memories will be boxed in our past

#1 This is What We Are

     Red lipsticks, clearly defined eye shadows, eyeliner and luscious blush-ons; these what make a girl look great when walking down the street. Of course, girls wanted look great whenever we have a chance but the real thing here is, do these fancy things really bring out the best in us?

    They say that being a girl is not easy and yes it is! We really have to look good and admit it or not, people around us really appreciates girls with good looks. But sometimes, come to think of what girls really wanted people around us to see. It is not the shining lipstick that we wear, not the pretty shoes that we have neither the cute bags that we carry nor the nail polish that sticks on our nails. It is the most powerful character of a girl: simplicity. At the back of our make up is the heart that shows what we are. I agree that cosmetics bring out the best in our physical aspect but what more important is how we carry ourselves without minding those stuffs. Every girl has her own uniqueness that makes her beautiful inside and out. A girl has her own power to make herself stand out and not to feel unattractive. Beauty doesn't relay in our physical appearance but in our actions and ways. Character and personality makes a person a brilliant one. It is not the eyes that see the beauty but it is the heart that feels the exceptional gift of God.  One thing that is greater than any stuffs that our "Kikay Kits" will have, it is the feeling of being loved and to love. Love makes a girl's eyes shine brightly.

A girl with the heart that loves wears the most beautiful make up in this world to show that "this is what you are".
