Ok so in the past I have talked about doing my own nails, and I have. I first experienced with the less expensive products, which I failed at, you can tell if you look back at my blog, and view the pictures of the train wreck. So I put off doing them and instead stocked up on supplies. I even got vegan nail polish to see how they were as I had never tried them before. You can see this review of the top vegan nail polish: https://thegreenforks.com/best-vegan-nail-polish/ if you want to know more about it. Now that I have done that I wanted to give it another go, which I did on my own nails since I had such a hard time getting the tip to adhere to the fake plastic finger *sigh* so aggravating that was. So I finally did it, did my own nails with a more expensive product but I was pleased with the results, I have to say that it was not easy Continue Reading
Persistence Pays Off, Believe It!
Yes!! Finally it's here. SUMMER! I'm super happy, that means no more rain? I hope. The weather has been wacky for ages, even when I lived in California, it was wacky, so I really don't know what to expect. It's 3:45pm EST and the temperature at the moment is 94 degrees, and yes I can feel the humidity. I've been indoors, so I don't feel it as much as others. I really hope William is keeping cool. I wish there was a way to guarantee that but alas there isn't. I know they have A/C at his job, so hopefully it's on and keeping him cool. So what's been going on with me. Well I have been watching a heck of a lot of YouTube videos, in hopes of learning more tricks of the trade. I recently bought some Primer from and Ebay seller, and unfortunately I wasn't at all happy with the product, it was way too thick, appeared to be more of a top coat, Continue Reading
My Nail Supply Collection Is Growing
I am really happy about getting my nail collection sorted, I like finding the things I will be using at really reasonable prices. Like from ebay, they have hoards of great stuff, and really super low prices, coming from like Hong Kong, China, it's incredible, most of them are free shipping too. So you know I pick up quite a bit there. On occasion I got to Michaels or Jo-Ann's and get stuff on sale, and yes I do buy reg priced items, but hey I try to use 40% off coupons when I can. From what I have seen, it's been 40% on one item which is really great, because I find stuff on sale, so I already am getting a discount, over all I have been very happy. What I would like to do next, is get acrylic powders and liquids from different companies and test them out and see how they are. As I had said before I started with less expensive product Continue Reading
April Showers In June? Come On, Really?
You know I love April, and May, and I can deal with the showers that come with those months, but June and it's raining? Why? The world is going to end soon I'm telling you!! Or this year the weather is just out of wack! Maybe both lol. I had plans to go out this weekend, but they have been cancelled with the way the weather is, so I put myself to use in the house and rearranged the room, moved this out and this in, that type of deal. I'm happy with it, I still have a few things that need to find a new home. And they shall! Last night I worked on practicing the 'nail' thing, and I'm getting there, it wasn't on my own finger. I figured out a way to make that silly tip stick to the artificial finger, it was being so stubborn. And I hate wasting stuff like glue :P Right so, one of the ladies on YouTube, said to try the actual acrylic to Continue Reading
Now We’re Talking Weather!
OH EM GEE, the heat is really on now. It's cooking out there lol. Thank goodness we went out early today, to do some shopping. I had a few things I was looking for, and I did manage to find them, although some I didn't or I forgot one or two other things. I try to keep a list of what I am looking for, makes it so much easier than running around the store, and back tracking to find stuff. That is what causes exhaustion, at least it does for my lazy bum hehe. That's it there, among a few other things I picked up. I'm pretty content with what I got, plus I got some packages in the mail today as well, that made me happy! Things I have long been waiting for, but it finally arrives. I think it's a great idea to buy nail related items from ebay, when I first started going on YouTube to search about nail related stuff, I found a lot of people Continue Reading
