Review: Sally Hansen Misbehaved

It's tricky, being a nail blogger and having to deal with flying 22 hours from Toronto to Melbourne.  Not so much the flight - I have resources to deal with that.  It's more about how I'm going to go more than a day without doing my nails.  I hate it when they chip as I end up picking it all off and that's ever a good look.  Instead, I decided to go with my most reliable Sally Hansen Salon Effects, Misbehaved, the fishnet stocking print.

Using my normal application technique, I whacked these on.  There's something really durable about this particular pattern.  I've worn these for five actual days before and not wanted to claw it off so victory there.  I also like the pattern, nothing too obvious and in your face, just patterned and non-chipping.






The Verdict:  Always a good one this one.

So, I might be a bit flakey with posts over the next few days but it's only because I'm literally either in the air or at my parent's house and their SATELLITE INTERNET isn't 100%.  I'll be featuring a lot of guest posts (thanks to everyone that sent them in, I got them all!) so keep your face pointed in this blogs direction, it's about to get guest-posty

    Yeah, I don't know what it is about this particular pattern, but it's the only one of those that stayed on my nails more than a day or two without chipping. AND, bonus, I have gotten more compliments when I use this pattern than with any other of the stick on nail strips.

    Great idea for a long haul--I haven't used these before, mostly because most of the patterns I've seen look fun for maybe an accent nail but are a little much for me to do a full mani with. This is one is a cute compromise, though. Fun but, like you said, not all up in your face. ;)

    Hope you have an awesome trip! I'm planning a long-distance trek this summer too and am not looking forward to the nail situation. On the plus side, nail shopping I can't do here!

Review: Nicole by OPI A Million Sparkles is Accurately Named

It's amazing what you can find when you wander around at night.  My favourite time to go shopping is ridiculously late and I'm extra happy when it pays off.  I've been looking for Nicole by OPI A Million Sparkles for a while now at that couldn't be more up my alley if it tried.  I finally managed to find it in a Shoppers last night and it really does live up to its name. A Million Sparkles is a predominately blue glitter that has an amazing ability to look like a foil after a couple of coats.  Combine that with gold, silver and pink bar glitter and you have a winner.  It's seriously so sparkly I got distracted from what I was saying at lunch today.  Application is decent but you really need four coats to get completely opaque coverage.  That's ok, glitter dries fast.  It's a little rough too but nothing Seche Vite can't fix.  The Verdict:  Yay glitter! If, like me, you like sparklies to the point where it's the biggest tag on y

I'm a Proper Mermaid This Time Beeeeaches

Ermerger guys, I don't have any glitter on me!  Well, I do, just on my nails.  I always have glitter on me.  And cat fluff.  It's funny how often my bf comes home with glitter in his beard.  That means it's been there all day... Anyway, new nail vinyls mean something a bit different.  I swear I'm not actually obsessed with mermaids, it just seems like it... Anyway, again, shall we?

Overlaid Red, Black and White Gradient Nails!

Ever since I did this mani recently I've been wanting to do a better version.  The colours seemed like they would work together but it just didn't turn out how I wanted.  I wanted to try again and decided to learn from my original mistakes.  For example, make sure you use a super opaque creme polish on your top layer, don't bother with horizontal stripes and using thicker lines looks cool too.
