justifying all this nail polish
I’m really excited to share my first product sent for review today. It’s the Clear Jelly Stamper set from Born Pretty Store. I’ve got two manicures to show you that I made with this stamper set. Read on to find out what I thought, and for a discount code at the end.
Happy New Year, dear reader! I hope your holiday season was relaxing and invigorating and you got everything you wanted, or at least the gift money to get it for yourself! Sandra’s manicure today includes one of the polishes I insisted my husband buy for me (by which I mean I bought it for myself and then let him hold onto it until Christmas morning), and a polish I got earlier in the month that I’ve been meaning to swatch. December had a lot of bare nails for me, so I’m hoping to see a bit more colour on them this month. Can you guess which was which? See if you were right after the break.
With all of the holiday prep and spending a week being sick in bed (but apparently noncontagious?), the blog has fallen a little behind. Sandra and I are still meeting for nails once a week though, and she gets to listen to me moan about how terrible I feel, and then I paint her nails anyway. It works out. Anyway, before we met last week, I’d been sending her piles of Pinterest pictures of Christmas nail art, and she fell in love with the candy cane look. I dug through my stamping plates for this image I knew I had somewhere, and I pulled it out before she got here.
Last week, everyone in my house was entirely too sick to subject Sandra to coming over to get her nails done. Even our cat was sick, and Sandra gloriously helped me with transporting her to and from the vet and picking meds for her and so on. Stuff like that is why I do her nails for her. This week, we wanted to do something Halloween appropriate, and decided on something alittle more subtle than she usually goes for. See more after the break.
