December 13-19 GLADvent Calendar Goodies

Hey everyone!

Just a quick recap for this weeks' goodies from the Cuter Cuticles GLADvent calendar.

Day 13 - Some rad lip balm - mint style! No complaints about lip balm, especially during the wintertime!

Day 14 - Nail clips! YES! I feel like these will help with glitter removal instead of doing the foil method, I will just use these. And.. they are a shade of green. LOVE!

Day 15 - a baby cuticle oil in Candy Cane.. um.. these are so adorable.. and a candy cane scent? Perfect!

Day 16 - A rainbow kind of camo-esque bead for my bracelet!

Day 17 - YEASSSSSHHH!!! Cutie Guard! I love this stuff so much! Cannot wait to put it to good use!

 Day 18 - a ring.. that looks like the Saskatchewan Roughriders 'S' with blue balls - haha.. ahh.. yup!

Day 19 - YAY! Chocolate Mint barrier butter.. this smells sososososo good! I love the barrier butters, and I love the scent chocolate mint, so this is a HUGE win!


Here is the weeks worth of items.. minus the candy cane cuticle oil - I must have stomped around with it and misplaced it.. dangit! BUT! Still a pretty rad week! 1 more to go.. I wonder what next week will have in store?!

As always, thanks for stopping by - see you again soon!!

Canada Day - Saran Wrap Style

I had said the other day that I would be using the Saran Wrap method again soon.. And I really did mean soon. I figure it was the perfect way to celebrate Canada Day (nail-wise) without over-doing it.. I mean, I'm fairly patriotic as a rule, but sometimes sporting a Maple Leaf on my fingers isn't exactly my style.. ANYways.. See? The love is there with the red and white.. I know I said the next time I did the saran wrap method, I was going to try with three colours.. But, I think I will maybe leave that experiment for tomorrow - today is only about these two colours! So.. How I get to this? Well, allow me to show you. Start off with the colours of your choice - one as the base, and one as your.. distress-er? And some saran/cling wrap. I take two pieces and ball them up.. You could use more or less.. But I figure two hands, two, er, balls. Yikes. After your base has COMPLETELY DRIED (you can do these a couple of hours in advance, the night before, or even use some

Day 27: The Hungry Asian Cookies (and) Cream

Hey everyone! I decided that for today and tomorrow (my last day - eeek!) that I would choose two polish that mean something to me. Today I am going to be sharing Cookies & Cream made by the awesome Kae aka The Hungry Asian. When I first started blogging, I immediately started following her. She is the reason behind many of my polish purchases.. heh. She started "frakening" polish awhile back.. and I had a HUGE lemming for Cookies & Cream - but, at the time, she wasn't shipping to Canada. Then, when she started to ship to Canada, I would always miss the restock times.. Then I just sort of.. forgot about it. Then, a little while back, while stumbling through all the amazing gems on etsy.. I saw a photo.. I didn't need to see the seller or the name.. I knew. It was ordered almost immediately. And it has sat.. until now. It still makes me heart smile. And now that it is mine? Constant smiling heart! I decided to not use undies on this. It is

Terrazzo Inspired Nails

 Hey everyone! Will speed-race past a whole 'sorry I have been away' write-up and just go straight to the goods. I apologize in advance for my VERY dry cuticles (I cleaned up as much as I could in edit mode.. but, still bad) - I have been applying oil and lotions multiple times per day for.. weeks.. and.. no beneficial results, sadly. I went with terrazzo print inspired nails for this go-round. I started with a base coat, then OPI I Cannoli Wear OPI, then, using the brush for the each nail polish, I went in with: OPI Suzi Shops & Island Hops, OPI Sailing & Nail-ing, OPI Amazon...Amazoff, China Glaze Liquid Leather, China Glaze Sweet Hook, Essie Chinchilly, Color Club Je Ne Sasi Quoi, and Sally Hansen White On - then finally topped with Seche Vite. I am hoping to slowly creep back into regularly posting new content here - so, stay tuned!
