China Glaze '100 Proof Pink'

Hello Readers! Quick post with 8 pictures! I decided to wear a fun pink by China Glaze named '100 Proof Pink' (kinda makes me want a drink!). This is from the Tequila Toes collection. It's a hard to find (htf) polish and can range from $8 - $15 on eBay. All photos are taken indoors with artificial lighting: China Glaze '100 Proof Pink' China Glaze '100 Proof Pink' China Glaze '100 Proof Pink' China Glaze '100 Proof Pink' China Glaze '100 Proof Pink' China Glaze '100 Proof Pink' China Glaze '100 Proof Pink' in the dark with flash China...

*My 1st Time* Using a Dotting Tool!

Hello Readers, Well, I finally picked up some dotting tools and had a little fun. I can definitely see how you can get precise little circles with a steady hand and a special technique. I noticed that when I dipped it in the polish 'puddle' every time the circle was more opaque and came out better.  I used OPI's 'Alpine Snow' and 'What's with the cattitude?' and L'Oréal's ''Amazon's Flare'.

Loving OPI's 'DS Sapphire'

Hello Readers! So, I just painted my nails with *OPI's Designer Series Sapphire and I'm smitten with this color. I'd describe it as a light blue-gray (somewhere between a baby blue and a medium blue grayish shade) with a stunning and very noticeable holographic appearance. Here are some photos I took with the iPhone 4S. They're all taken indoors with artificial lighting while the others are taken with a flash to show off the holographic effect! *Note:  This is a rare polish. You can get it on eBay anywhere from $10 - $39+ so it just depends...

A Comparison of 5 Similar Foil Type Polishes

Hello readers! This is my first polish post so I have high expectations and hope that everyone enjoys the comparison between these 5 pretty polishes. I will always try to be as descriptive as possible. Occasionally, I'll have access to a light box to get better photos. All photos were taken using the new iPhone 4S. My 5 choices I compared: Barielle's 'Brown Sparkles' - A warm silvery taupe melted molten foil  OPI's 'DESIGNER...DE BETTER!' - A mostly silver foil/glitter with sparse ultra fine reddish-pink glitter MAC's 'SOIRÉE' - A copper...

*My 1st Post* Diva Stuff's Sugar Cube Body Scrub

Let me start off by saying I freakin' love Diva Stuff products! I'm all about supporting the people who make handmade beauty products but sometimes they aren't up to par. I can say I've tried $1,000's worth of handmade products (many via the Etsy website) and haven't purchased any since because they were cheap (left residue or seemed to be predominantly some sort of cleansing agent/or a soap). Behold... Diva Stuff's 'Sugar Cube Body Scrub'. If you haven't heard of such a thing you have to try them. Here are 10 reasons why I love them so much: They're...
