Hello lovelies,
Where has this week gone? I was just having a lovely weekend and now it’s Wednesday already! Did I mention we got a new puppy? She is the cutest thing but man I forgot how exhausting a puppy can be. She has a lot more energy than I do that’s for sure. Lucky for her she is so cute. I must admit she is also really really good. So does so well with her potty breaks and she’s a super champ during the night too. Go Willow!
Of course, just because the week has flown by doesn’t mean we don’t need pretty nails right? Let me show you what I did.
I started with 1 coat of Sinful Colors – Snow me white on all my nails and left that to dry completely. Once it was dry I did a stamper smoosh using China Glaze – Dance baby and China Glaze – Boho blues. I topcoated that smoosh so that it could dry completely before I went any further. I then used a Sharpie vinyl from Because I shop and made the point facing the tip of my nail. I then added a coat of OPI – Eurso Euro on the cuticle end of my nail and then I added a coat of Essence Glamaxy. I made sure to remove the vinyl while the polish was still wet to get clearer lines. I then topcoated everything again and voila!
What do you think? First, can we talk about this topper from Essence? Glamaxy is perfection. In my Big US Box I received a polish (Fresh paint – Sugar crush) and when I was looking it up I found it to be quite a coveted polish and hard to find. This polish is an EXACT dupe for that hard to find polish. If you see this, grab it, grab 2, maybe 5. This topper looks amazing on any colour and you will love it! Ok now that that is out of the way. Don’t you love the smoosh? I really enjoyed the colours together and how pretty they looked with the darker blue. OF course the topper makes everything look good but still. What do you really think? I really liked it but my immediate thought was ‘Is it too much?’. Also, Joyce, see. Whole hand. I don’t know what is happening to me!!!
Anyway, I hope you liked this as much as I did. I hope you have a beautiful day!
Thanks for reading,
Juanita
Besides all the amazing… I love eurso euro

Me too! I didn’t think I would love it as much as I do. and Thank you!

OMG… when I saw that flakie goodness on your nails I sat up straight and when I read Glamaxy was a dupe for Sugar Crush I googled it and… it’s a dupe for the highly coveted (by me), extremely hard to find essie Sign of the Times!!! I’m SO going to order multiple bottles of this one (as I can now order online from our drugstore and pick it up in the store… no way I’m going to risk it’s sold out).
Phew… now that that is done (and three bottles are going to be MINE… woohahahaa… oops, sorry about my mad side showing) what’s up with the mind reading, woman? I’ve just finished a smoosh manicure (not on all nails though). I think we need to find a 12 step program for you to get back to normal (whatever that may be 😉

Maybe I should change my playlist to something other than Prince… I meant essie Shine of the Times!

Yeeesssssss!!!!! I am so glad I am not the only freaking out by the awesome of Glamaxy. I have also in the mean time grabbed myself 2 more bottles!
Hahahaha I love it when we are (kinda) on the same wavelength. But then I am not surprised when I am inspired by your nails so often. Also, I know this is late to respond to comments but I think I am out of the phase!!!!!!

You got a PUPPY? Where are the pictures???
Michelle Roberts
RIGHT!!!!! She is the cutest. I did post some on Instagram but it’s been so chaotic here lately I am afraid she isn’t getting a fair shake in the attention and social media department 😛
