I just joined Canadian Beauty Bloggers and the beauty theme for May is orange so I thought I would put on one of my favourite orange polishes, Essence Gorgeous Bling Bling. This is an older Essence polish, and one of the few that I have used so much that I had to buy a new bottle. It […]

Gradient Glitter with Wet n Wild’s Wild Shine Spring Collection
I am not usually into pink nail polishes, but these Wet n Wild Wild Shine polishes caught my eye in Rexall the other day. At only $1.49 on sale, Wet n Wild polishes are super affordable and great if you are starting out a collection or do not know what colours suit your skin tone. […]
Going Red With OPI’s Older Polishes *Swatches*

Green Nail Polish For St. Patrick’s Day
Green nail polishes can be hard to wear, especially for St. Patrick’s Day when it is a little too early for the brighter summer greens. My top pick (and the one I am wearing this year) is Zoya Pixie Dust in Chita, a forest green with a hint of gold and signature pixie dust sparkle. […]
