Nailed It Again!

I've recently acquired an invaluable tool in my quest for funky nails that I wanted to share with you guys. I have tried everything from nail stickers to stencils to freehand and let me tell you, nothing has worked quite as well as a basic nail dotter in dressing my nails in chic designs that don't end up looking like streaky blobs (how is that even possible?!)

Don't get me wrong, it's still tough to get everything just right, and you still need a steady hand and lots of control, but what I really like is the precision it offers without taking away the freedom to let your own designs roam free. 

I am using an Essence brand dotter that I picked up at Pharmaprix (Shopper's Drug Mart in the rest of Canada) for under $3! Can't wait to get some more fun nail polish colours and go to town!

Nailed It!

Debbie and I decided to take a longer lunch this week and treat ourselves to a little TLC nail care at one of our favourite retreats, The Runway Beauty Bar. We ordered some CND Shellac, the perfect nail solution for busy ladies on the go such as we.

Several coats of polish are applied and cured under a UV light to reveal instantly dry and shiny nails that can last without peeling or chipping for up to two weeks! We have to admit, this was a lunch hour well spent!
