Alien Status!

Hi guys! So I'm sure you have probably seen on Pinterest a little pin describing easy glitter removal through the use of acetone, cotton, and aluminum foil. Skeptic that I am, I never thought this could truly work. So I set myself up to try it out. The pin describes the process as soaking pieces…

Cemented

Hi Everyone! I've got a comparison for you today. I recently purchased China Glaze's Whirled Away from their Cirque du Soleil collection without knowing that Sephora had come out with a new polish line named Sephora X. Both polishes are reminiscent of Indie polish Lynnderella's Connect the Dots, which is amazing clear base with black…

Rudolph-y Goodness

Evening everyone! I am delighted to announce I am officially on winter break! Woohoo! No teaching for 3.5 weeks baby! 😉 Ok, so maybe I shouldn't be so excited about that, but the truth is I finally had time to dedicate to doing a completely free-handed mani! I've been seeing a lot of reindeer mani…

Like Buttah ;)

Hi! Quick post today. In my search for a cuticle oil that is effective, doesn't spoil quickly, and smells good, I've tried many I haven't liked. Recently, I decided to pick up Butter London's cuticle oil and bingo!!! I hit the jackpot! Not only does this cuticle oil smell deliciously tropical, it works wonders without…

Half Moons

Morning everyone! I know I've been off the radar lately, but with so many things going on, I haven't had much time to post. However, today I've got a mani for you that I had been dying to try. I'm a bit of a skeptic and curious by nature so here we go... I really…

Super Luxe

Hello everyone! Today I just have a simple mani to show off. It's nothing out of this world, but I ended up loving the combo. Unfortunately, I had to cut my nails short because I broke a few while making jewelry. Hope you can still catch a good view of the shimmer. OPI's Germanicure had…

Magnetize me!

Hello all! I went to Harmon the other day, and to my delight I encountered Essie's new magnetic line along with a few OPI Skyfall polishes I wanted. Yummy! For this mani, I used Essie's Lil Boa Peep and OPI's The Living Daylights. In regards to the Essie polish, loved the formula, hated the cap…

Not-so-mint Julep

Hi everyone! Long time no talk! I've been a very busy little bee! My nephew was born this weekend and I am so in love with this lil tyke! Needless to say, my focus wasn't really on posting. Mea culpa, but a baby was involved! LOL Just when you think you couldn't possibly love any…

Filigree Fun

Hello everyone! Here's to hoping you all had a fabulous, food-induced-coma Thanksgiving! 🙂 Seeing as my mani got destroyed from washing so many dishes, I decided today was the day to have some fun using my Bundle Monster stamping plates. Stamping can be easy, but extremely messy. I don't claim to be perfect, but I…

Gobble, gobble!

It's almost Thanksgiving... so before anything else, I'd like to wish you and yours a Happy Thanksgiving's Day! I wanted something festive for tomorrow so I decided upon a reverse glitter gradient in warm colors. For this mani, I used L'Oreal's The Muse's Inspiration, which is a gorgeous shimmery burnt orange and China Glaze's Electrify…
