I love it when I scratch through my box of nail polishes and I find a fab colour I didn’t remember I had. Secluded Beach is the most recent discovery in my box. I was given this nude-mauve nail enamel at a Cosmo and Revlon event and haven’t used it since that day that we did nail art. After wearing it today, I’m not quite sure why I never wore it again? It is simply gorgeous and looked great with the navy, white and gold outfit I wore. The photos I took don’t really do it justice, you have to see it in person to appreciate it. I applied 3 coats of Secluded Beach because if you only do two coats it’s a little light. Yay for finding pretty colours you never knew (remembered) you had!

Mani Monday – Water Baby
After taking the gelish off the other day I gave my my nails a well-deserved rest for a week. I love gelish, but it really does leave my nails paper thin so I can’t wear it too often at all. … Continue reading
Mani Monday – black nails inspiration
I still have white nails, and am loving them! Eunice at Sorbet warned me that some of her customers’ white nails stained, but luckily mine haven’t done that. They do look like they may be turning a bit of an ivory colour, but I’m okay with that.
While scrolling through Pinterest tonight I saw some great black manis I would love to try now. I haven’t had black nails in ages so I think before spring arrives I definitely need to experiment with some of these ideas.
