Hey loves!
So this blog is an offshoot of The Curvy Fashionista Photo Challenge I told y’all about last week. And today’s subject is Mani Monday!
Y’all know there was no way I’d miss this one, right? 🙂
Yesterday, I had a day full of chores and then a fun night of dinner with my fellow blogger Shecoul and friends.
And of course my nails hadn’t been done since the gel nail fail of a week ago.
But what’s my normal go to? Sally Hansen Nail Decals! They’ve never let me down. I added Clio from Julep to give my characteristic sparkle, and came up with this:
Since I had to climb Mount Laundry yesterday, I needed something quick, and for me, nothing dries quicker than glitter polish. The downside is that it’s a booger to take off, but it’s a trade off I was willing to take. The decals are called Aflorable.
Coming up tomorrow: a premiere! (Barring any unforeseen circumstances, of course.)
See you then!
Love this mani! I have never tried nail decals and I have seen them on plenty of blogs. I love how you added you own bit of spice to bling up the manicure. You’re so adventurous with your manis. I’m usually plain Jane because I hate taking off glitter polish (and have plenty of glitter polishes). There has to be a better way! LOL
OPI has a special base coat for glitter that will actually allow you to peel it off of your nails without damaging them. I haven’t had a chance to find it and try it, but I want to!
I’ve read reviews on the OPI glitter basecoat and most say it doesn’t last long. It peels off in less than 24 hours. Such a bummer. I’m going to read up on the foil method…some people swear by it, but if it takes longer than good old fashioned scrubbing with Remove +, I say forget it. LOL
