First off… I must mention that I’m no manicurist and I’m certainly no hand model, so…
no judgement, please.
Thank you.
Now… my new obsession is…
Sparkly nail polish!!! I just finished painting my left hand and had to take a picture. The color pictured above is “Red Carpet” by Sally Hansen. It’s a pretty, glittery true red. I’m still on the hunt for a dark red. I think a darker red would look better next to my ghost fingers.
I also LOVE this (without the black tips)…
It’s called “DS Extravagance” by OPI. This one has been my go-to color for the last several weeks until I discovered “Red Carpet” yesterday at Target.
I also really like this neutral color…

This is Butter London’s “All Hail McQueen”. This particular brand is kind of pricey at $14 a bottle and is available at retailers such as Macy’s or Dillard’s. It’s a beautiful color and definitely sparkly, but I don’t think I could fork out that much dough for nail polish. My cap is $5.
This one is great, too…
VERY BLINGY! I’m really not sure of the name of this color, but it’s OPI. I really, really like OPI nail polish.
Here’s another neutral with a very interesting graduation technique that I don’t think my clumsiness could handle…
I really want to know who does these girls’ nails… they’re all PERFECT! The OPI examples are reviews by one girl for a blog. She reviews several different colors in one day and apparently does her own nails. I’d love to have mine look that good!
Not only am I obsessed with sparkly polish, I’m slightly obsessed with nail polish in general. Here’s my box of colors/supplies…
Thank goodness nail polish is much, much cheaper than shoes! I typically do my nails on Monday nights (while I’m watching “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills”… again, don’t judge. You know you love that show, too!)
Here’s my lineup for a long-lasting manicure that I learned from my absolutely favorite cosmetologist, Amber…
1. OPI’s “Chip Skip”
2. CND’s “Sticky”
3. 2 coats of your favorite color
4. OPI’s “Top Coat”
I better paint my right hand before I forget and go to work tomorrow with one red hand and one naked one!
Here’s my weight from this morning…
Until next time…
Happy Blogging!
