At first I only wanted to join the flat gel art nail tip submission. But I kinda get persuaded to join the gel mani too. I did thought of joining that previously but, I wasn't very confident. But I thought it will be a good chance to see where I stand since it's the senior category that I'm in this time round.
I didn't have much pics for yesterday though. So here's my gel mani, the only floor competition that I took part in and earned me a 3rd in gel mani.
The pics are taken outside st James powerhouse. Natural lighting makes everything looks good.
And another close up pic.
After my floor competition, my model and I went to vivo for lunch,
Here's the video that I took while we were waiting for our food to come. I think it's clearer when viewed on com.
Yesterday was the first time I did the whole process for my model, as in like from filing to application to end. As one of her nails already have a crack line, I'm afraid that if I practiced on her and remove it too many times, that nail will crack, if it cracked, I think I will panicked daooooo. Another reason is because of time issue, not everyone is free to practice with you everyday. Plus I was focusing on my flat gel art till Saturday late afternoon. And I spent the night practicing a little more on the nailart. Luckily I'm quite familiar with her hands, if not, I think I will be even more gan jiong.
Of course it will be the best if you have enough hands for u to practice la lol. And the nailart was done on her fingers for the first time yesterday too. Previously I was practicing on my own.
I was feeling quite gan chiong the day before and that night I didn't really sleep well. I kept waking up in the night, fearing that I will overslept and missed the timing to submit my tips LOL. =_='
I went off after my floor competition actually XD As I'm going out for dinner in the night and I wouldn't want to carry all my barang barang out.
So I went back to st james again when the awards ceremony started.
And when my name was called, I was like woah okay... Woahhh lol. I think the feeling haven't sink in much. Cuz during the competition, my hands are shaking a little when outlining the flowers and I only managed to keep myself calm after finished outlining the middle finger. So I think the pinky and middle finger de outline quite chui and ugly la lol. But at least when it was ending soon, I wasn't as nervous as I was already lol. And no major hiccups too, which I'm really thankful for that. So I'm really grateful and happy to be able to clinch a 3rd in gel mani for senior category.
And for my flat gel art competition, I really worked and push myself for the last 2 weeks in July to finish this up. Cuz, I kinda started really late for this and I did procrastinated abit too. D: I think is on 21 July then I started painting, which is really late! And that weekend before the actual competition week are filled with other commitments, so I can only paint on weekdays when I have no appts. At least I didn't have to reject any appointments to compromise this.
And this is one catergory I hope to win very much? Lol probably because I had abit more hope for this than my floor competition la.
So here's the piece that I submitted.
The most challenging one was definitely drawing a human face and need to research for the right angle and the eyes too. Next was the hair lol. Again, need to find pic lol.
These 2 features... I really kinda stuck for a while, cuz I dunno how to execute it?!. And time was running out too, in the end just whack and do it lol. Cuz no matter what still have to complete it. So faster do, faster finish.
And I'm really satisfied with this when its done! Almost working to 2am everyday just to complete and I was feeling abit drained, but managed to pull myself together again.
Super happy that the hard work got paid off! This piece earned me a 1st in Flat Gelart in the senior category! :)
Close up video of the tips. Can view in hd on com... I think? Anyway used free music provided by YouTube.
And here are my trophies!
After I took my second trophy I faster cao alrdy, cuz late for my dinner appt, and they are like waiting for me. So I didn't managed to stay till the end :x I guess I probably missed the grand champion sessions and the team mix media result. But it's okay, cuz Instagram shld have news to follow up with xD
So yup here's my recap for Pinkroom cup 2015!
Okay ending this post alrdy, it's a long post. >_>'
And of course, lastly not forgetting to thank my family, esp the sister who keep encouraging me and believing in me! 🙆🏻
And Pinkroom for organizing this. Definitely enjoyed myself though the process is a bit stressful. Because it had been really awhile since I feel so nervous since my diploma exam in 2014. But this competition is definitely a good way to push yourself and see how far you can stretch.
