Radiant Elana

Radiant Elana

 Wearing this color this week, the week of November 16th-22nd has been super great! Its an amazing color that somehow reminds me of strawberry flavored candies. I have no idea why,

This week's color is a Julep color by the title of Elana. Inspired by a certain Honey Boo Boo? Maybe so...This color is fun and cute with a little bit of bling! I love it!
Elana went on smooth (as smooth as glitter polish can go on) and the first coat was pretty thin. When I added the second coat, my eyes just lit up! This color was that great! The top coat finished it off and it dried within the hour! Gotta love fast drying polish!

This color has been so much fun to wear! I frequent a local preschool to do art, and I got so many compliments on my nails! The kids totally loved this bright pink polish that is embedded with gold glitter. Even the boys thought my nails looked "so cool"! That's the best compliment I could have gotten!

This polish is also super long lasting! As of a few days ago, it still hadn't chipped! And, as a plus, it came of really well too! Sometimes I find myself hacking away at my glitter polish - but not this one! Its came of easy as pie...speaking of pie...I hope everyone has a safe and wonderful Thanksgiving!!

If you want to grab a bottle of Elana check out Julep.com or your local Sephora. Also, you can sometimes find great deals on Julep polish on QVC. 

 If you have some great polish you would like to show off, share it! I would love to post about your nails on the blog!

 Be Radiant!

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
