Because I’ve been working so hard in my garden, it just didn’t make sense to paint my nails. The bluestone and marble chips that I was putting onto my walkway did a number on my nails. I ended up having to file them down, but they sure do look better than they did. I love …
Although Olive & June nail products aren’t 100% perfect, you know I love them. Even the Quick Dry formula that I wrote about two weeks ago ended up lasting me a week!

I Bought This, Affiliate Links There’s no secret, I adore Olive & June polishes and nail care products.

It …

Honestly, I have holiday gift suggestions galore, and I was planning to write about another one of them today. But I realized I wanted to snap another photo of it from a different angle. Now that we’ve turned back the clocks to standard time, it is too dark to take a photo (without dragging out …
Give me nail polish any day of the week/year and I’ll be a happy camper. Even with the problems that the world (and me personally) has had the last few years, I never gave up on my nails. I always had them polished and ready to go even if the only person that saw me …
There are designated days for just about everything. I just learned that there’s a National Pink Day. Being that pink is my favorite color this will be a happy day for me. I bought these Pink is a soft romantic color that mostly represents femininity. The warmth of pink adds tenderness and care, according to …
It’s the last shopping weekend before Christmas. Who still has more shopping to go? Sadly, my cousin’s wife who is an ICU nurse at a big hospital in Boston was kindly having her Jewish in-laws at her home for Christmas. But with COVID on the rise and her ICU unit filled with very sick patients, …
I Bought This, Affiliate Links I like glitter and sparkles all year round, but there’s no time like the holidays for sparkly nail polish. Olive & June’s holographic glitter polish, Exclamation Point, is probably my favorite. It is unbelievably sparkly, and it reminds me of diamonds. In the sun or light, it is absolutely amazing. …
I Bought This, Affiliate Links I’ve been making my way through the set of mini polish bottles in Olive & June’s Summer Mini Set 2021 (now renamed the Gifting Minis Set). I love minis, they are the perfect size. I wish all polishes came in mini versions, but alas, this set from Summer 2021 is …
I Bought This, Affiliate Links Have you heard all the hoopla for Olive and June nail system? To be honest I hadn’t, even though it’s been around since 2013 when they started with nail salons. Justine G., my beauty blogger friend, mentioned it on Facebook a couple of weeks ago, asking what we thought about …
Gift, I Bought This, Affiliate Links The other day, I received an unexpected gift in the mail. A generous sister blogger completely surprised me with two beauty products that she thought would suit me. I must say she knows me and my taste well even though we have never met in person. Today, I will …
I can tell you, I for sure do not crave the chaos. We’ve had enough of it this year. I bought this. Affiliate links. But the shade of Expressie Crave the Chaos is a whole different story. As usual, I had a CVS discount and Extrabucks, and I found myself drawn to the Essie polish …
