So Laque! Nail Enamel

Bourjois So Laque! Nail Enamel
Enriched with vinyl to speed the drying time and to provide a high impact shine, these super sexy shades slide on and stay put, and are super slick-looking for seven days. Vinyl reinforces the flexibility and resistance of the finish, while a blend of highly reflective resins enhance shine and boost adherence to the nail itself. The super flat brush produces the ultimate lacquered effect.

6 colors to choose from, I love the Rose Vamp I think its the perfect pedicure color for summer.

How about silver nails?

It works on Fergie, but would you try it?  Believe it or not, silver nail polish is really difficult to find!  At least it was for me! I finally found a place that sells it – it’s called Piggy Polish (cute name!), and the name is “Every Cloud“.  Check it out!

My personal review Sephora Tips & Toes pen

french-tips.jpg

I posted a review on this a few weeks ago and just finally got the chance to pick one up. So I decided to try it out this morning to let you all know if it’s the real deal.  I opened it up and thought this is going to be messy I’m such a klutz when it comes to painting my nails. I was pleasantly surprised it turned out to be super easy.

It has a sharp angled tip so with one sweep I was able to make the line almost perfect. Then I was able to do a little dab to fix any imperfections.  I painted just before I started posting my reviews this morning and it dried so quickly I didn’t even need to wait to type. No smudges on my nails and no white marks on the keyboard. If you like the look of french nails this is a must and  for the price it can’t be beat.

Sephora French Tips & Toes Manicure Pen
This chubby, felt tipped pen makes achieving a perfect, professional-looking French manicure a snap.

To use: Simply glide the angled tip over the whites of your nails (and toes), allow to dry (about 10 seconds) then, finish with either a clear coat or a translucent polish shade of your choice.

Viewer Review: Smudged Nail Polish no more!

time_polish_drying_accelerator.jpg

QTICA: This product is a must have for women on the go who don’t have time to sit around all day and wait for their polish to dry.

Between work and all of my daily responsibilities, I don’t have a lot of time to devote to nail care, but I still love to have the look of professionally manicured nails.

All you need is one drop of the accelerator on each nail, and the surface dries in no time.  Of course the polish is still going to be soft underneath,as  there really is nothing to speed up the hardening process.  But having the surface dry will keep your nails from smudging, and allow you to keep the lovely glossy finish the polish has when allowed to dry properly.

It really comes in handy when you’re on vacation and you break a nail or have a big chunk of the polish chip off.

A wonderful, wonderful find.  I don’t know how I managed without it.

Viewer Review: The BEST Nail Strenghtening product… PERIOD.

nailtiques.jpg

Nailtiques: This product is absolutely amazing. As a life long on-and-off nail biter, who also happens to suffer from brittle nails that chip and peel from the sides, I have tried every single kind of nail strengthener under the sun. None of them worked. Until one day, a friend of mine introduced me to this miracle product.

With it, my nails have become long and strong, and the best part is, no one ever believes me when I tell them I don’t have acrylics on.

There are a few different formulas for different nail types, but people with generally weak nails should stick to formula 2. You start off with 2 coats at the beginning of the week, and apply one new coat everyday. At the end of the day clean it off with acetone and repeat.

Nailtiques also has an amazing line of other products like gentle acetones and cuticle creams.

You will never go back to acrylics to have the look of beautiful nails ever again.
