I think it's pretty safe to say that Across the Universe, made by the illusive (and usually very pricey) Deborah Lippmann, is definitely something that many ladies (and men!) lust after. Well, that was me for a while, until I discovered Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure's polish appropriately named Mermaid's Tale.
It was offered to me in a swap and the person mentioned that it was a dupe. Well, if that didn't get me on board with it, I don't know what would have. I'm not exactly one who is ready to go drop $20 on one polish that I'm not absolutely guaranteed to love on my nails, so when this swap came in the mail...I just about lost it.
This is 3 coats of Mermaid's Tale with two coats of Seche Vite.
That it has been. I think the last time I ever kept a blog was 2009 and I quickly gave up because posting rants was cramping my style. In any event, that's not what's happening now.
My nail polish...well, fiasco, has grown constantly since August of 2012 and I hadn't considered keeping manicures and swatches and all that good stuff on a blog...until now. It doesn't feel like it's been almost a year, but with 80-something polishes, maybe it has been.
So, this will be my nail-mani-pedi-everything-awesome themed blog where I update you on my trials and tribulations in the nail world.
Okay, I get it, first posts are lame, just like me. I know. It's okay. It'll get better. I promise.
