Time for a vacation!

I am headed down to Texas to visit family for a week and show off my 6 month old son! It is going to be a whirlwind of a visit so I won't have any time to do my nails while there. I decided to revisit the Nfu-oh #51 since it has a long nail life and is a color that is sure to please.

And this is what I ended up with!

The last unicorn inspiration for a contest!

I wanted to show this interpretive manicure I did for a contest on /r/Raop today... The contest was anything unicorns, which I had to jump on! I loved Unicorns as a child and read as much as I could about them. I also loved the movie "The last unicorn", a sad film from 1982 of the last living unicorn struggling to survive in a medieval setting. This movie is pretty intense and I immediately thought of the colors it reminds me of - Flame orange and ocean blue.

Water and fire, Good vs Evil.

OPI " Nail envy"

 I've read some complaints about nail envy that revolve around what seems like over use, so I thought I'd share this explanation I found of the OPI strengthening products. 

"Overhardening your nails can make them brittle, so switch to Maintenance Nail Envy once your nails are strong to keep them in great condition."

Today I recieved two beautiful polishes in the mail from my favorite little corner of reddit, Random acts of polish. I got gifted Nubar "Indigo Illusion" and Orly "Sparkling Garbage"!
