Are you dizzy with excitement about nail polish?

 I'm back!  You probably didn't know I was gone, though.  :)
 I went to visit my various grandparents last week, for a week.  I wanted an easy mani solution, so I chose to put on nail stickers.
 These are the Sally Hansen Salon Effects nail strips in All-A-Flutter.  I put them on and took these pictures last Tuesday.
 I went ahead and topped them with a coat of Poshe right away.
 My application with these was hurried and not my best work.  You can see that the edges near the cuticles are not very smooth or even looking in some places.  That's from either trimming them poorly (I use my Tweezerman nippers to trim them sometimes) or having had too much sticker in that area and then clumsily sort of pinching/chopping off the excess with the wood stick or some other implement.
I think I actually went and used a small brush with acetone after I took these pictures to try and smooth out the rough edges!  It helped some.

This design is cute enough, but honestly, it's not my favorite.  Within a day or two I was pretty well over them!  I wore them for a full eight days, though.  I didn't take any progress pictures.  They were somewhat chipped by the end, but not too badly.

Oh!  And I don't like how the index and middle fingers look exactly the same.  I prefer them to be all different or all the same.  I guess I wasn't paying attention when I put them on.

This is a one picture post! I snapped this one quickly with my phone last Wednesday.

These are the Sephora Nail Art Patches in A03 Rrrrrrr. They are basically the same as the Sally Hansen ones, in terms of application and wear. I love the new patterns, too!

I have been wearing these for the past week on my vacation. This picture was taken right after I applied them. They suffered great abuse from sand, sun, salt water, and chlorine, but honestly looked pretty darn good even after a week!


This Is Me!

I love color, beauty, creativity, animals, and being care-free. I'm not care-free, in reality, but would like to think it's an attainable state of being! I do like to bend the rules when it serves a greater purpose and I'm all about being authentic. Here I am, take me or leave me! I suppose I'd call myself a sensitive soul. I think I feel things more deeply and ponder things more thoroughly than your average bear.
