Hello Beauties!

Today's post features another installment for the natural hair website, KinkyCurlyCoilyMe.

One of my favorite things about summer is pedicures!  I absolutely love the pampering involved in manicures and pedicures.  This inspired me to create a post centered around three of the hottest nail trends right now!


Hello Beauties!

Today I wanted to do a review of the long-awaited ZOYA nail polishes I received a few weeks ago.  As you may know from a previous post, ZOYA was giving away two bottles of nail polish for free.  All you had to pay was the shipping, which was $6.95.  Since each polish is $8, this meant a savings of $16.  I had heard rants and raves of this brand so I felt it would be a great opportunity to try it out for myself.

For those of you who may not have heard of the brand ZOYA, this brand is popular for several reasons including the fact that it is formaldehyde-free, vegan friendly and long-wearing.  They also have over 300 shades of nail polish.  (Crazy, right?)

After scouring their website, I chose the colors Dree & Sunny.


Hello Fashionistas!

For all of my ladies who love nail polish, this posting is especially for you!  I have something amazingly awesome for you! 

I recently tried Sally Hansen's Salon Effects nail strips and they are AWESOME!  If you haven't heard of these strips, they are a pre-cut strips that come in a box including a nail file and cuticle stick.  There are 16 strips in the box.  You just simply find the pre-cut strip that best fits your nail, peel, and stick.  You can simply fold and pull of the excess strip from the nail and then file them down with the included file.  They are already dry and ready to go.

Check out the pictures:

These strips are very comparable to minx but for only a fraction of the price!  This box of strips was $8.50 at Walmart.  They are said to last to up to 10 days. 

[Note:  I'm currently on Day 5 of having these on my nails and I have had little to no chipping.]

Want to see how they are put on?  Check out the link below!  As always, God bless.

Hello Fashionistas!

Okay...  Have you all heard about the new "crackle" nail polish?  If you haven't heard of this yet, please get up to date ladies!  This is the newest craze in nail polish.  I first heard about them a week ago.  For those who aren't sure what I'm talking about, what it is is a nail polish that you put on top of your favorite polish and it gives a cracked design.  It sounds crazy, but it looks great!

Right now, Opi has a brand of the crackle nail polish, but Opi is a little on the expensive side.  No bueno!  I went to Sally's Beauty Supply today and got the China Glaze "Crackle Glaze" for $3 a bottle with the Sally's card!  Let me repeat that...  $3!  So, I got three bottles for only $9 total.  You can't beat that.  I rushed home to try it and here are the results:

I know it didn't come out perfect on my nails, but I still find the look to be very cool.  I painted the crackle nail polish over Avon's Speed Dry Nail Polish in Ballerina.

Let me know what you think!  God bless.
