Manicure “Me” Time

July 25, 2013 by fabfrugalmama

I’ve written in the past about my nail-biting vice, and it has been a roller coaster of ups and downs since then. But I’m glad to say my nails are back in fine form and, I must admit, I love showing them off! I find that doing my nails helps keep me on the right track so I don’t
bite them. I’m also loving that my weekly self-manicure is a nice ritual
that I have established – it’s “me” time that I truly relish!

If you love nice manicures as much as I do, you’ll want to check these out! Here are a few colours/looks from the past few months…

Mint Mojito – CoverGirl Outlast
Caviar Manicure set from Ciate London…

…here’s how it looks on me (my first time doing it!) Really 3D!
Joe Fresh – Prune
BioSeaweed Gel – Strawberry Hills #210
BioSeaweed Gel – Celebration #209
I haven’t done this Very Colourfoil Manicure from Ciate London yet, but
when I do, I’ll be sure to post about it. This is really unique and I’m excited to try it!!
If you’ve got any fun manicures or great colours to share, I would love to hear about them! Feel free to post pics and connect with me on social media (links are on the right).

    Love the dark prune colour on you! I haven't tried the joe fresh nail lacquer yet, but will have to look into that.

    Cool, I think that's something my daughter would get into. –> This one –> Caviar Manicure set from Ciate London… <–

    I really like the Caviar manicure. I'm sure you'd get a lot of comments about it. I always like to comment on people's really fun manicures.

    i would love to do my nails in a fun design but whenever i paint my nails they are ruined in less then a day and it's kind of makes me sad…so i just read about other people doing it

    manicures were the reason i stopped biting after 20 years… didn't want to ruin the pretty polish! and i've never looked back 😉
