Nails- Week of May 2

Easter Nails! These are my sister's hands. Base coat is Summer Peach by American Apparel. The dots consist of  Essie's Mint Candy Apple and Tarte Deco, Joe Fresh's Faded Violet and finally Yellow 3  from Urban Outfitters.



Accent nail, of course. Silver is Pedal to the Metal by Sally Hanson Salon and the green is Jade is the New Black by O.P.I



I have had this colour for years - Charisma by Zoya. This one is very easy to apply and dries super fast with a matte finish. I did put a top coat on because it chips very fast. Which it did anyway the next day.


The base coat is Commander in Chic by Sally Hansen Salon and over top is O.P.I's Black Shatter from the Katy Perry Collection. When I first got this months ago it was really good and now it is goopy and applies thick and now you see is shiny and looks tacky. I have been told that there is a pharmacy brand that has a lot of colours and applies better, I will check it out!




This is Tarte Deco by Essie. It is more pinky than pictured. I have had this one for a while and it has now turned goopy and thick. I love this colour so I will be purchasing another.



I was told by a friend this colour reminded them of Barbie. I love it and surprisingly its Ardene's brand. Yes the accessory store. Their nail polish is actually really good and comparable to high brands in relation to application and chipping. There is less colour selection but new ones come out each season.



Love this one is by Zoya as well, but its a friends and now I forget the name.... I love the gold shimmer and no chipping yet!

Review {Chi & Prosys}

Image
My hair is one of my favourite parts about me, thus I invest a lot of time and money into it. When you only wash your hair once a week, you might as well make it worth it. My new favourite shampoo: Prosys Organic Shampoo. I love it because it is a cream, meaning it is more nourishing. My hair doesn't feel like it was stripped of everything it once knew and loved. It lathers a tad but is able to make its way around my head. It smells really good! That is always a bonus. Conditioner/ leave-in/Hair Mask: Chi Nourish Intense It really does leave me hair feeling great, no matter which way I use it. Sometimes when I want my hair curly I will wet my hair, skip shampoo and just conditioner and it is light enough to create nourished but not heavy curls. This also smells good. Not a conventional smell, but more spicy, like most Chi products.

Meal Preparation

Image
I am not trying to claim that I am someone who is super healthy. But I try, that is the main thing, right? You have probably heard about meal prep a number of times. Especially from your crazy healthy friends who are sooo annoying with their preaching. I won't preach. Just tell you another couple reasons why it is so great. SAVES TIME! I got grocery shopping once a week and that is it. I look on Pinterest for the recipes I want to cook, make a list and go! Then I spend my Sunday cooking up lunches, dinners and snacks and am done for the week. DONE. It feels so great to be able to go out and do whatever I want after work and not have to worry about making lunch for the next day. Or when you come home exhausted, dinner is ready and waiting! SAVES MONEY! One shopping trip. Keep within your budget and then you do not have to worry about unexpected trips to the grocery store or have to buy lunches some days because you were too lazy to make food the night before.

Product Review: China Glaze Base & Top Coat

Image
My mother is a saint and sent me these in a care package: China Glaze- Strong Adhesion Base Coat I obviously has heard of base coats before but never really bought into them and usually that layer is reserved for my Witchcraft Nail Hardener. Well I made room for this and am amazed! The  China Glaze- Strong Adhesion Base Coat,  is crazy good. You can feel that is it, like, sticky. But not...ya know? I am also convinced that it takes less coats of polish after. I just used a really light pink last night and got way better coverage then I usually do. China Glaze- No-Chip Top Coat I don't have much to say about this one. The China Glaze No-Chip Top Coat does it's job for sure, but didn't wow me. Check my next post for the top coat I opt for.
