Game Changer: Nail Butter The Nail Treatment
I do the best I can for my nails. I take biotin every night. I use base coat when I wear nail polish. I try to avoid harsh polish removers. On occasion, I would rub some argan oil on my nails and cuticles. But that’s pretty much it. Until I met Nail Butter, a game …
New Shine Out Loud Collection from butterLONDON & Giveaway!
butterLONDON is one of my very favorite nail polish brands. Their prestige nail lacquer goes on so smoothly that two coats is more than enough. butterLONDON nail lacquers don’t contain formaldehyde, toluene, DBP, phthalates, or parabens. They dry quickly to a beautiful shine. I believe butterLONDON lacquers are cruelty-free and vegan. About a year or so ago, …

February 2015 Valentine #ipsyLove ipsy Bag
Middle of the month means ipsy time, and I got my February Valentine’s #ipsyLove bag. The bag itself is pretty cute. It’s made out of a synthetic fabric that reminds me a little of old-fashioned oilcloth in that it’s somewhat stiff, holds its shape and won’t get dirty. It’s a raspberry pink to celebrate the …

This week in the Boston area featured “snowmageddon”. And where I live on the North Shore, the weatherman was right on target.
