Nailwear At fiveBelow

If you ever shopped at a five Below you’d know that in addition to the toys, school supplies, candy, plastic wear, swimwear, iPhone/laptop/computer accessories, blah blah blah blah blah, they also carry nailwear and cosmetics on the cheap.  I stopped in last evening and picked up a few items to add to my already excessive nail polish collection!  Unfortunately, my nails were weaken by a Gel manicure done at a salon so I have been doing my own and I like the new colors and products currently on the market.  fiveBelow also carries a brand of the Magnetic nail polish which I would like to try, but they only had one bottle and it was a color that I didn’t particularly like so I’ll check another store over the weekend.

Sally Hansen HD Hi Def Nailwear – $2.00

Sally Hansen Salon Effects – $3.00

Nutra Nail Gel Manicure Kit – $5.00

I need to go through and organize this mess!

By the way, check out my cousin’s nails, these are short considering what they once were a few years ago!


Nail Polish from Ross – PASS

I like looking through the cosmetics and bath/beauty supplies at Ross because there is always something to be found at a reasonable price.

4 pack of Glitter Nail Polish by Color Club – $5.99

 

Went on smoothly, two coat coverage was great and dried quickly.

No dress today, the weather is cool and gloomy.
Have a fan-tab-u-lous weekend!

 


Nail Art – Everything Old is New Again!

It seems like nail art is once again very popular – as the saying goes, “Everything Old Is New Again”.  

This is a picture of my nail art from my wedding day 22 years ago!   I requested my manicurist to add the pearls which he did by gluing and placing each one individually.   It was done a few days before the wedding and lasted well past our week long honeymoon in Cancun.

You’ll notice that hubby also had a manicure (pedicure and facial) which was my gift to him and his groomsmen.


OOTD – Peaceful in Pennsylvania

Pennsylvania has some beautiful scenic views and I am fortunate enough to be surrounded by one of them at my workplace. Commuting almost 2 hours a day in major traffic is very stressful, but thanks to God’s gift of nature I am calmed at the end of the drive. I enjoy taking walks at lunch even dodging the geese poop because I know there are people who do not have the gift of sight to appreciate the beauty that surrounds us.
