I picked up some really pretty polishes in my hauls this
week. The colors were so pretty that I knew that I was going to have some fun
with my nails.
Now, I've mentioned that I have a nail quirk. I like
funky colors on my feet and demure colors on my hands. I think it's because I work
with my hands a lot and so they chip quickly. It's easy to touch up demure
colors (nudes, pales, etc). My toe nail polish lasts 3 or 4 weeks sometimes so
I can go crazy with color on them. This week I picked up 6 polishes. I got 4 for my hands,
1 for my toes and 1 fancy overcoat color.
The nail colors resemble many polishes that I have in my collection already. These colors are basic pales and mauves that are totally me. Maybelline Bold Gold is probably the exception to the rule. It is a touch outside of normal for nails but not crazy or anything.

Maybelline

Hansen Instra-Dry Fast Dry Nail Color - 180 Rose Rum
I've chosen the Rimmel Bare Naked to go under the China
Glaze Glitz'n Pieces. I only Glitzed my ring fingers on both hands. Looks cute I think.
Side note - Folks, I had gel
nails for about 6 months. They looked so pretty. I got complements everywhere I
went. Once I decided to take them off and let my nails breathe, I discovered
that my natural nails looked horrible! They were soft and a tad discolored.
I've been letting them heal and 4 months later, they are better, but not the
best. I've added biotin to my vitamins so they are making a slow recovery. My
nails photographed so beautifully a year ago. Now, well, this is what I have. I
working on it though.
The China Glaze in 1181 Glitz'n pieces is a bit new for
me. I haven't done glittery overlay in many years but I'm very excited to show
this off.
After I've had a bit of time to test run the different
polishes, I'll be sure to do a review for you. Maybe I can do a nail review
each month. What do you think? Do you have any colors that you've seen that
you'd like to try?
