Mentos always reminds me of when I was a CNA in the 90s and I had a patient I would grocery shop for who always had Mentos on her list, lol. I think these were on sale probably on Ulta, they often have Sally Hansen Insta-dri collections on sale. Here are the ones I picked… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday-Sally Hansen Insta-dri Mentos
I’m a Sony Play Station girl, but I really loved this X-Box collection, lol. First up is Suzi is my Avatar. This was my least favorite of the colors I picked up, just because it turns out I don’t love the color, lol. It’s fine, and the formula was fine. I just don’t feel like… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- OPI X-Box Collection- Suzi is my Avatar, You Had Me at Halo, Heart and Con-Soul, Pixel Dust
I hate Peeps. Marshmallows only belong in s’mores. But these polishes are great creams, and they were only $1.50 at Ulta and I needed to get to $35 for free shipping, lololol. Here’s the lineup of what I got. Let’s start with the white. Basic. LOL. Peeps White. It is definitely a 2-3 coater- though… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- Sally Hansen Insta-dri Peeps
My friend Paula, Real Polish Fanatic (who I have never met irl but still consider a friend! Check out her blog and YouTube channel!) sent me two Island Girl polishes and a cuticle oil. They’re really pretty!!! Here’s the nail mail. The purple doesn’t have a name, just a number, 1403A. So sparkly! It’s not… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- Island Girl Polishes
A friend of mine, Paula, who has a blog called Real Polish Fanatic (and she makes beautiful jewelry as well) gifted me these Island Girl polishes and cuticle oil. The purple doesn’t have a name, just the number 1403, the pink is called Hula Festival. Spoiler alert, I’ve worn both of them and they’re beautiful!… Read More Nail Mail- Island Girl and Sally Hansen Insta-dri
I rarely wear creams because to me, they are scary. There’s nothing in them to distract from a crummy paint job, lol. No shimmer, no flakies, no holo, so you can see every mistake! I think as I’ve gotten much better at painting my nails and cleaning up the edges, creams aren’t as scary! This… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- OPI 7th and Flower
OPI did a whole collection of Bond Girls in their Liquid Sand (textured) finish- way the heck back in 2013. Randomly, a few years ago (years after the collection had come out), the whole set was available for cheap on Groupon! So I snagged it. This is Pussy Galore, the light pink! People either love… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- Pussy Galore
So I’ve had these Orlys for awhile, and I decided to try them alone and with the Lisa Frank topper!! So here we go. First up is Orly Vintage. This is such a pretty color. Is it turquoise? Mint green? Almost a Tiffany blue with a touch of green? Aqua? I’m not sure, but it’s… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- a bunch of Orlys!
I am not usually a topper person, but I got two random ones and thought I’d try them out! I think I got them both (I know I got the Maybelline, not sure about the Hard Candy) at a Dollar General. My son is obsessed with Mountain Dew, and I don’t know if you know,… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- Maybelline and Hard Candy toppers!
I whipped out a couple pink Zoyas for spring! This has such cute flakies in it! I was super nervous that it would still be sheer after three coats, but it looks fine! I like this shade of pink a lot. I don’t mind three coats, lol. Here’s the closeup. It kind of looks like… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- Zoya Binx and Reece
