nail salon..Day of the Dead Nails

The Day of the Dead
Dia de los Muertos
November 2nd is the Day of Dead a holiday is typically celebrated in Mexico or by Mexican Americans in the US. The holiday focuses on friends and family members who have passed. Typically, the family will construct an alter with pictures of their loved one. The alter will also include things that the person liked such as beer or a picture of their favorite pet. I painted these nails to honor my favorite Mexican artist Frida Kahlo who died in 1954.

nail salon..Mycocide Review

Mycocide
Callus Exfoliating Foot Cream by Woodward's
Review
I received several products by from a PR representative to review.
The box was filled with products from Mycocde. One of the products was called Mycocide NS Antifungal Treatment kit. My father took one look at the box and ran away with it ( i didnt ask). But, prior to receiving the treatment he kept complaining about his toes..I haven't heard anything from him since. I would consider that a thumbs up ( i guess) . I also received the Mycocide nail whitener which I decided not to try because, the last time I tried a nail whitener it made my nails really weak and the product ( not by Mycocide) also smelled like bleach. I didn't want to take that chance. If you are like me and paint your nails all the time the best ways to prevent your nails for staining is the proactive way use..BASE COAT!
Finally, I DID use the Callus Exfoliating Foot Cream. It worked just as described. I used the product daily for two weeks. I don't have really callused feet but, after wearing flip flops all summer this is the best time of year to give you feet some extra TLC. I liked that the cream is exfoliating, I could feel may callused skin washing away ( I am addicted to anything with exfoliation). I liked the cute little foot file that came in the box. I didnt have to search around my house looking for one ( that's a plus). Overall, I liked the Exfoliating foot cream .
I already have a few friends who will be getting an extra treat in their holiday stocking.... ( their feet will thank me!)
Have you tried any Mycocide products? LMK

nail salon : China Glaze Matte Magic Swatches

China Glaze Matte Magic: Top Coat

I'm currently giving away a few bottles of this polish so, I wanted to post a some samples....


I wanted to post a few samples of China Glazes's Matte Magic so, you guys could see why I like it so much. I painted the nail tips using Black Diamond , by China Glaze. Black Diamond, is a soft mixture of gray and back polish with delicate blue sliver glitters. Then ,I used a nail brush and painted strips , swirls and dots. This is what I would call a surprise mani, like the toy inside the cracker jax box. From far away it looks like a regular mani but, when you take a closer look SURPRISE! China Glaze , has not cornered the market on matte top coat it just happens to be the one I like.
