To kick off another week I have another nail polish to share with you! As I was preparing to paint my nails, I asked you guys on Twitter (@frmheadtotoe) which polish I should use and the most frequently voted choice was OPI Don't Bossa Nova Me Around. Since I wanted a mini break from the summer brights I've been sporting lately, I decided to go for this work-appropriate, classy look.
Happy Monday! Today's Manicure Monday is another from the OPI Brazil Collection but with a decidedly darker and more sophisticated twist. Amazon...Amazoff is a decadently teal-based green that is perfectly suited for those who want a pop of color that will go with everything.
Today's Mani Monday is another polish from the OPI Brazil collection which is absolutely perfect for warm, sunny weather or those dang lucky ones going on tropical Spring Break vacations. Live.Love.Carnaval is a really vibrant shade of hot watermelon which I somehow always find myself craving this time of year.
Today's Manicure Monday was chosen as a tribute to my recently (Sunday evening) departed betta, Tink, who had the loveliest red-and-translucent-white fin coloring.
I know that in traditional Eastern cultures red is the color of fortune & luck. Because I got Tink immediately after leaving my day job behind to take the huge leap of faith in following my own dreams, in many ways he is that "lucky charm" for me. He even made it cross-country to our move out to LA, faithfully swimming through the 26 hour drive. For being so much more than a fish and being with me every step of the way for years, this lucky red OPI Red Hot Rio Mani Monday's for you Tink! RIP little guy!
Hey guys! Today's Manicure Monday is one that I was immediately drawn to from OPI's Brazil collection. Kiss Me I'm Brazilian is the cutest shade of hot pink that I knew would be perfect for the sunny spring weather. I'm constantly on the hunt for good bright pinks but it can be tricky to find one that is flattering on certain skintones. Did this one past the test?
Hey everyone! I was drawn to today's Manicure Monday shade because it had a sparkle and fire to it without being a glitter like last week's color. As easy as it is to remove glitter polish, I still wanted to give my nails a little breather from the grit of removing those shimmering specks. The great thing about glass-fleck shimmer is that as gorgeous as it is, it's easy to remove too and I thought this coppery orange would be a lovely choice for today. Let's check out OPI A Woman's Prague-ative below!
Hey guys! I obviously haven't gotten over the need for sparkle after the holidays because today I wanted to share another blast of sparkly happiness. This was a color in my sister's recent OPI stash which was from their holiday collection. All Sparkly And Gold is a lovely glitter to wear even after the holidays. Let's take a closer look!
Hey everyone! It's the last Manicure Monday this year before Christmas and I wanted to make sure my nails were properly festive for the season. You may remember that I did a cute Snowman Nail Art tutorial last year, so I thought a slightly broader concept would be fun this time around. When Elleandish's Sweater Weather nails recently came up in my blog feed, I knew argyle nails would be the perfect answer!
Lately, my mind has been marinating on the upcoming holidays. One of my favorite things about American Thanksgiving dinners is eating turkey with cranberry sauce which is exactly what today's Manicure Monday reminds me of. OPI's The One That Got Away is a gorgeous glass-flecked polish from the Katy Perry collection and stunningly Fall-appropriate color. Let's check it out below.
Hey guys! It's time for this month's favorite products recap and if you've been following the blog this month, you may see some familiar faces. I don't make any qualms about saying that when I love something new, I loooove it so obviously it's gonna make it into my favs. ;)
This month we have a bit of everything from a concealer to a beautifully fragranced bath oil to a favorite new sunscreen. Let's check it out below!
Hey everyone! Today's Mani Monday consists of a color that my sister grabbed from my nail polish drawer when she came over recently. For some reason, bluish teals aren't what I naturally gravitate toward but as soon as she applied it I knew I had to try it out too. Teal The Cows Come Home is punnily named and gives a gorgeous, bright pop of aquamarine shimmer to the nails. Lets check it out b below!
It's the beginning of April which means that it's time for another round-up of last month's favorite beauty products. Included this time are a couple of newly discovered face-enhancing base makeup products that I'm obsessed with and also a few reeeeaaally favorite nail products that you may remember from Manicure Mondays recently! Check it out below!
Hey everyone! Today I wanted to share my first Nicole by OPI polish in a classic pink. Some of you may know that Selena Gomez recently teamed up with the line to come out with her own set of polishes and this particular color happens to be her namesake. Like Selena herself, Selena is perky, girly, and undeniably cute!
Hey everyone! So today's Manicure Monday is quite appropriate for the month of February because, whether you are spending Valentine's Day with a loved one or your best single ladies, it can totally match both moods. Just like the previous OPI Liquid Sand polishes I've tried (here and here) this one has an asphalt-textured, glitter matte finish however I find this shade to be much more age-appropriate for a variety of women and wearable than the both previously worn. How different is Stay The Night compared to the other two? Let's take a look.
Happy Monday everyone! Today I wanted to share a brand new nail polish from OPI's The Amazing Spiderman collection called Into The Night, which I received as a gift from my awesome sister-in-law. As soon as I saw the bottle I knew I wanted to try it on right away. To be honest, my first impression of it was that there's nothing like this blue in my collection (cue excitement) and I'm happy to say that it's also one of the most flattering mid-toned blues I've ever tried on my skintone!
Hey everyone! Today I wanted to share with you another polish from OPI's Liquid Sand collection. After being stunned by the beautiful blue "Get Your Number" from this line, I eagerly snatched up "The Impossible" which is a hot red-pink textured polish with red, silver, and holographic glitter particles as well as the occasional red star glitter. Did I love it as much as my first experience? Let's take a look!
I'm not sure why it is that I torture myself with trying to share with you guys the most difficult-to-capture polishes for my Mani Mondays, but today is yet again another polish that wows so much in person that photos of any kind simply don't do it justice. It's not just my photos, it's literally every photo of this polish on the internet. Still images just don't twinkle like Get Your Number from OPI's new Liquid Sand collection! It's a whole new look and texture compared to every other polish I've tried and I was pleasantly surprised by it.
Hey everyone! Today's Manicure Monday is a perfect addition to the cool Fall weather and rich jewel tones that go with this season's trends. No, I'm not talking about another burgundy but instead I wanted to share a vibrant blue that I have really been loving on my nails. OPI DS Magic is from the "designer series" of OPI which tends to have unique shimmer and holographic finishes, and Magic definitely falls into that category.
Hey guys! March is upon us again and it's time to share my monthly favorites from the past 4 weeks. This month, I found a new favorite lip product and rediscovered a few older items that I used nearly everyday!
