A Radiant Mani in One Bottle

A Radiant Mani in One Bottle

 Hello All! Its week three of the Fifty-Two weeks of Purple! This week's color is something I am very excited to share with you. Sally Hansen has created a "Complete Salon Manicure" in a bottle! In one bottle of nail polish you can get Seven of the same benefits you can get from salon manicures. 

This bottle of I Lilac You by Sally Hansen packs these Seven benefits, while also being a really lovely color that fits in well with Pantone's Radiant Orchid:
  1. Base Coat
  2. Strengthener
  3. Growth Treatment
  4. Color
  5. Top Coat
  6. Chip Resistant
  7. Gel Shine
With this product you can practically skip the salon and get some of the same results. Try using a polish like this while practicing some of my Lasting At Home Mani tips! I am excited to see how long this polish will actually last and whether I will notice a difference in my nails. 

 When putting on this polish I definitely noticed that it was going to take more than one coat of polish to have great coverage. In the end it took three coats, but it dried so fast! I've never had three coats of polish dry so fast!

Interested in getting a bottle of the I Lilac You Complete Salon Manicure? You can use the Sally Hansen Store Locator to find a bottle near you. Or just try your local Walgreens, Walmart, Target, CVS or Rite Aid. 

Ironically enough, I have noticed that many polish gurus don't put much faith in drug store brand polishes, but at almost the same coast as a bottle of Essie, I think Ill keep my hopes up! Plus, with all of those steps packed into one, who can resist a time saver?!

Remember, a polish doesn't have to be expensive to be good! In fact, the only thing that matters is that you feel Radiant wearing it!

Be Radiant!
Amanda

The Radiant Phia

The Radiant Phia Hi Everyone! Julep has done it for me again. This week's color is a great shimmering purple! Phia is described as an "alluring orchid iridescent chrome" (there's that orchid theme again, yay!) is an amazing polish.  Because of the chrome-like effect of this polish, it makes it last even longer. Its almost as long lasting as your toughest glitter polish! What's even better is that it dried really quick too and was perfect even with two thin coats of color. Another win for Julep, my nails, and my time!! However, my favorite part of this polish is the fact that it has a slight green shimmer to it when you put it into the light. So pretty! So shiny! and So sophisticated too! If you want to get a bottle of Phia just check out  Julep's Website ! Sometimes you can even find the polish at your local Sephora or on QVC. If you have painted your nails with a great color, show them off! I would love to share your n

Keep That Callus

Image
Keep That Callus First off, a callus is a thickened and hardened part of the skin or soft tissue, esp. in an area that has been subjected to friction. In regards to nail technology, most calluses that are seen in the salon are found on the bottoms of the heels, and sides of the feet and toes. Many common calluses are also found on pressure points on the bottoms of the feet. I always get  them on the backs and edges of my heels.  Sometimes, we notice that calluses cause us agitation or pain, and thus we wish to reduce them.  Have you ever gone into a discount nail salon and seen one of these tools used on your feet? At some nail salons, your pedicurist might offer to shave your calluses with a credo blade (that handheld device that looks like a cross between a razor and a vegetable peeler seen above). But, however tempting the allure of callus-free feet may be, I suggest you turn down the offer immediately! You see, in most states, having a pedicurist shave your calluse
