As with most companies, Avon has a lot of new products coming up to the holiday season. Our skincare needs change in the colder weather and so not surprisingly, there is lots of new skincare to try out. I was lucky enough to preview some of it, so here are the ones I loved and […]

Avon Mark. All Bundled Up Bath & Body Collection
Mother Nature gave us a teasing taste of fall the other day and while personally, I was loving the cooler weather, I had to laugh at people in coats. They are probably the same people who wear shorts as soon as the first hint of spring hits too. As much as I hate the heat, […]
Avon True Colour BB Nailwear in Perfect Pink Swatches & Review
I may have gone a little overboard with these. You see, at the same time as these new Colour+Care polishes arrived from Avon, my Mundo de Unas order arrived too. I needed to swatch the stamping polishes so what better time than over new polishes. Rather than one long picture heavy post with the three […]

Stronger Healthier Nails With CND Rescue Kit
After boasting last week that my nails were growing really quickly after breaking several in the move, I managed to break two nails in the space of just a few hours and had to file them all down again. So it was the perfect time to try out the new Rescue Kit from CND. I […]

UNT Ready For Takeoff Peel Off Basecoat
I have wanted to try UNT Ready For Takeoff Peelable Basecoat for ages. Simply Nailogical recommended it as the best peel off basecoat (see her comparison video here) but it is not available in Canada so I held off ordering it while trying various other peel off base coats and glitter bases. Since my no-buy/low-buy […]

Cuticle Care After Moving Day
I try my best to look after my nails and cuticles but in general, they tend towards dry and my nails break easily once past the tips of my fingers. Moving however, left my nails looking horrible. As in, there is no way I am swatching polishes or playing with my new stamping plates when […]

I have bought nail packs from THEFACESHOP before, but mostly the milk calcium ones. While the milk calcium nail packs are meant for dry and rough nails, the paraffin nail packs are meant to strengthen brittle nails. With all of the damage I have done to my nails with recent packing and sorting alongside the […]

Prevent Your Nail Polish From Chipping and Peeling
I have probably mentioned this hundreds of times, but I am hard on my nails. Yes, I love my nail polish and probably change the colour and design 4 times a week but part of this is necessity. My nails and I do not always get along and no matter how careful I am, the […]
The Neutrogena Norwegian Formula Hand-Off
Have you tried Neutrogena Norwegian Formula fragrance free hand cream? I will admit to not taking care of my hands as well as I should and my skin suffers the consequences. Between the amount of acetone I use cleaning up nail art or polish, changing my polish almost daily or deciding to swatch 10 polishes […]
