Bonita Colors Spring Collection Part 1 - Swatches & Review

Press Sample

Hello, all! Happy Saturday...or Sunday depending on your location ;) I've got swatches of the first half of the Bonita Spring collection to share with you all! This is an entirely shimmer collection and normally I'd be missing my cremes, but the shimmer is subtle enough that it can be used in nail art easily enough. 

Barielle Summer Keys Collection - Swatches, Review, Nail Art & Tutorial

Press Sample

Hello, all! I've got swatches and a quick review of the new Barielle Summer Keys collection to share with you tonight! As a bonus, I've also done some nail art and a tutorial as well because I like you guys!

These are some bright shades that scream summer, but could easily be wearable year round (always love a collection like that!). Overall, the formula on these was great - I had no problems with application and all the shades need 3 coats tops - which I'm coming to expect from Barielle. I also love that these polishes are big 5-Free! Two of the shades in this collection were very similar, but I think this is a nice set of polishes to help round out your collection. Read on for individual swatches and reviews!

NAGG - Day 13: Hearts

Nothing to Disclose

Hello, all! Hope everyone had a nice weekend! I always hate Sundays because I tend to just worry about what will occur at work on Monday, but I try to still enjoy the time off. I was supposed to continue with the Nail-Art-A-Go-Go challenge last Thursday, but as is my Mo, I fell behind and didn't get the post done. But I've got the Hearts theme to share with you today!

Slate Blue Floral

Some items purchased by Me & Press Sample

Good Morning (or afternoon or evening, depending on your location on the big beautiful earth)! I've got another mattified floral mani to share with you all today. After yesterday's post, I browsed a bit more through the printpattern blog and came across this pattern just a bit farther down in the post I was inspired by yesterday.

I've been wanting to try some of my new summer Barielle shades in some nail art, so this seemed a perfect opportunity.

Vintage Floral - The Love Affair Continues...

Nothing to Disclose 

Happy Freakin' Friday, all! I had a pretty rough work week and I am so beyond glad that it is time to relax and not stress for a few days. To celebrate, I did a mani just for me. Not for a tutorial or a challenge, but for me!  I found a pattern I loved and just did nail art for the sake of doing nail art.

While I love doing challenges and tutorials (okay, I don't love tutorials, but I do them because I love you guys!), they can be really taxing when you're not feeling in the mood or are lacking inspiration so painting my nails with something just for me was incredibly cathartic and refreshing for me. This was one of those manis that I was literally squealing with joy once I had finished them. I am so incredibly smitten with how they turned out.
