Manicure Monday

I thought I would try something new and try out a two tone nail. I think it would have turned out better had I used tape to make my line but for freehand I think it turned out well. I choose a complimentary light grey and a silvery purple for this manicure. I am pleased with the results and I wore it all week to work.

Manicure Monday: Christmas Edition

My happy holiday manicure recipe: neutral pearl base + SPARKLES! I used Julep's Jennifer, a pearly cream, and Sinful Colors's Gilded, which is gold and red sparkles in a clear base (go Redskins!). I love this fun and festive combination and the cream base really lets the sparkles show off. What I don't love about holiday manicures? The post-cooking Christmas dinner … [Read more...]

This week's color is Revlon's Minted. I love this color. It makes me think of Breyer's mint chocolate chip ice cream. And who doesn't want delicious looking nails. Mmmm.... … [Read more...]

Manicure Monday

This week's manicure is a fresh, sparkly summer peach. This is NYC In A New York Color Minute nail polish in "Peach Sparkle". It's part of NYC's limited edition 2012 Summer In The City Collection but you can still find it on ebay. Peach and coral have continued to be hot colors for this summer too so, lucky me, this is still a "do". This lovely peach polish has some gold in it … [Read more...]
