Blue nails and randomness

Today I'm wearing Sally Hansen CSM in Navy Baby. This is 2 coats and no topcoat. 

It's a really pretty deep blue with some shimmer to it. I'm already experiencing some tip wear, and I just put this on a day ago. I still think you need a topcoat with these CSM polishes even though the claim is that you don't. I think the polish would be shinier with a topcoat. I did use my OPI Nail Envy strengthener as a base.

My nails are tore up from this ridiculous winter in PA. I'm so over it. I had a casualty on my non-swatching hand. My middle finger is beyond shorter than a nub. 😢😥

Oh, and the random thing is the second photo. It is of a Cover Girl Wetslicks fruit spritzer that is of questionable age and origin. I think it's probably 4+ years old. I can't believe I actually bought a CG product at one point. Not my fave brand. 

On to the photos!

Red nails

Red is not my favorite color. I think I own just 3 articles of red clothing- a hoodie, a sweater and a tank top (which I shamelessly bought because it was Calvin Klein and on sale at Burlington and has fab gold thingies on the straps, but I digress). 

So, needless to say I'm not one to rock red nails. But, hey, it's nearing valentine's day, so what the heck. 


This is 3 coats of china glaze in the shade red satin. It was super shiny on its own, but with HK Girl topcoat, the shine is off the charts. I tried cleaning up this mani but since it's red, it still stained a bit. Here are a few more pics:

February means pink

Today's mani is Dollish Polish in it's so fluffy, I'm gonna die! If you haven't seen Despicable Me then you probably don't get the name. Anyway, I'm kind of obsessed with the pink, milky glittery-ness of this polish. It has so many shapes and sizes of glitter that they are too hard to count! I think this is PERFECT for February. I am so excited to start rocking more spring-y colors. Oh - and this is 3 coats topped with Glisten and Glow's HK Girl fast-dry topcoat.
