Essie Essential

I realized after all these manicures, I missed actually doing my own nails. Yes, it's a pain to let your nails dry and yes, I never fail to mess at least one nail up and have to start over but...it's my kind of fun. Since I've been on the hunt for the perfect red-orange mix since birth, I was dying to find this new Essie shade (Saturday Disco Fever). Oh hello, honey. With one coat of OPI base coat, two coats of this pretty polish and a finale of Seche Vite top coat, I'm ready to rock. 

Blue For You

I have been LOVING royal blue nails. So, when I saw Essie had a brilliant shade of blue polish, called "Bouncer It's Me", I had to have it. Try an even brighter blue for a great look at tan skin. Love love love. For a professional finish, try my favorite top coat (Seche Vite).

A Top Coat That Tops Them All

I've been painting my own nails since I was probably 4-years-old so one might say that I've got it down after 21 years. I've tried splurging on the top brands of top coat and I've tried buying the $2 bottle at CVS in a pinch. I've tried it all and my experience tells me Seche Vite is still the best of the best. I find mine at Target. Enjoy the shiny, long-lasting color.
