Zazzle Custom Minx Nail Wraps!
Cafepress user from way back. I know Zazzle is around, but generally speaking when I think of custom print-to-order items, I look at Cafepress first. MAN was I doing a disservice to myself, a mistake I shall not soon repeat as I discovered something on Zazzle recently that is exciting beyond comprehension!
Read MoreApril Julep Maven Box’s Vivid Collection
A little late, but I’m just now ready to write about what I received in my April Julep Maven Subscription box. I was excited for colors this bright, but I have to say in execution I was disappointed. Which is the first time I’ve been disappointed in anything I’ve received from Julep. Overall I think their products are amazing and their Plié Wand is a total game changer, and most of their polishes are one-coat wonders, but the two I received, besides being dupes of things I already have, missed the mark in the application test.
Read MoreRadiant Orchid Manicure: Pantone Color of 2014
Paying more attention recently to nail polish trends and fashion trends too, it did not go without note that Pantone named Radiant Orchid as the 2014 Color of the Year. It’s a nice light purple, and I’m on board for anything purple. I’ve seen lots of representations of what Radiant Orchid is, which seems odd considering that Pantone is a system of colors for designers that’s very exact. I have had so much nail polish come my way that I hadn’t bothered to look specifically for a polish to jump on this trend.
Read MoreApril Showers Bring May Flowers Manicures
April showers bring May flowers, or so the saying goes. Well here in California, we’re in the middle of a pretty bad drought. Of course the only showers that we really saw during April were during the weekend I decided to get away and go out of town to rescue my sanity! Nevertheless, I was in a sunny disposition when I decided to get a neon orange done on my toes at my last pedicure, so I matched with a bright and happy neon orange on my nails for this May Flowers manicure.
Read MoreRevlon Parfumerie Wintermint Manicure
Like most married women, I live with my husband. Unlike most married women, I also live with my younger brother. Neither of these men enjoy the smell of my nail polish or associated removal products. Since I have the distinct pleasure of working from home, I tend to do my nails during the day while I’m working before either of them get home in the evening so I don’t bother them with them smell. An odor that I don’t like either, but any woman would agree that we’re willing to suffer a little bit for the sake of beauty! A few months ago, I read about the new Revlon Parfumerie scented nail enamel line and I was intrigued. “Could it be? A pleasant smelling polish?” I asked? The reviews I read all praised the scent and said that, even under a top coat, you could still smell the scents.
