You know me! I typically like to review polish collections as a whole, not by each polish in the collection. It’s just how I like to do it, my M.O. But I have really enjoyed using and experimenting with the Color Club Backstage Pass Collection, showing you each glitter after I wear it, and talking …

I haven’t done a nail mail spam post in forever, so I figured I’d show off my new goodies! I ordered from Llarowe for the first time. I know, I’m so behind the times! I was disappointed that so much of what I wanted wasn’t in stock, but I quickly learned how great the proprietor …

I don’t generally post press releases, but this one is important to me as a salon customer, and as a blogger who has had several conversations with other women about CND Shellac. It disheartens me how many women have said “it damaged my nails,” or that it’s “just like gel polish, right?” No. It’s not, …

Deborah Lippmann really knows how to do a duochrome. The Future is Yours is a gorgeous, sheer, light greenish blue with purple/pink shift. It’s all my favorite colors in one polish. Please note that some of my pics are blurry on purpose, to show off the color shift! *Swoon* I’m in love with this …

The Kardashian clan. They are loved. They are hated. Honestly? I could care less. I’ve seen maybe five minutes of one of their reality shows. I don’t know much about them except they’re reality stars, and Kim is a sexy woman; I wouldn’t say I’ve got a girl crush on her but I can see …

OK, I seriously lack in recent photos of myself. So I provide you the brochure I got for the surgery I had done yesterday – TA DA! *sigh* I am hoping to include a before/after shot next week. It’s about time for that, there’s definitely a difference! Well, friends. It had to happen. I’ve had it pretty good …

I’m never one to pass up an opportunity for occasion-appropriate nail art (World Water Day? World Blood Donor Day? Or how about the Winter Olympics in Vancouver, 2010?). But gall bladder surgery nails? Hmmm. I did have some trepidation. My colleague at work asked me, “are you going to do gall bladder nails?!” And we …

A friend had asked me if I have done or would do an ice mani. I “Googled” it and found a number of very cool nail art designs. Since I saw a number of different manicures labled as ice mani’s, I just decided to do what seemed to best fit the description for me! On Saturday, this …

I’ll be honest. My first choice for a nail polish is not to grab a neutral. I like to live life in color. But when I saw the Zoya Feel Collection, I felt like “neutral” took on new meaning. And I also felt ready for the soft, snowy-winter look that the Feel Collection has for …
