Mani Monday: Black Diamond from NCLA's All That Glitters Isn't Gold Collection
Disclaimer: I am not a nail blogger or professional (so sometimes I color outside of the lines and my cuticles look a bit ragged). I am merely a girl who LOVES nail polish!
Black Diamond from NCLA's All That Glitters Isn't Gold Collection |
If you follow me on Instagram, then you saw my disclosure regarding my lack of nail polish posts lately: basically I've been slacking off because our dishwasher is broken which means that my hands are now the dishwashers and are thus in an almost constant state of not cute. {To compensate, I've been going a bit overboard with my pedis- I recently used 7 different bottles of polish on my toes, though you will never see that, because I will NOT be supplying photographic evidence of my feet. Like ever. Cause IMO, the only cute feet are baby feet. So...} I've been trying to get swatches of NCLA's latest collection, All That Glitters Isn't Gold for well over a month now {pretty much from the moment I received them to review}, but the universe has been throwing numerous obstacles in my path {severe breaks on my swatching hand, my failure to save the original, true to color photos of the swatches {instead of just the edited/filtered copies}, and the aforementioned dishwasher situation-just to name a few}. So I've decided to do three different dedicated posts to the lovely polishes in this stellar collection; here is the second, featuring Black Diamond!

Fab Five Friday with Atopalm!

This Fab Five Friday, I wanted to spotlight a brand you don't see very much about. Atopalm is an internationally renowned skin care brand, that has your skin care needs covered from head to toe! I've had the chance to review quite a few items from Atopalm, but I just found out that a lot of their products are now available at my beloved Target, so now that they are a bit more accessible, I thought it was the perfect time to share a few of my favorites from the brand. Prepare to add a few more goodies to your shopping/wish list!

Get Smooth For Summer In Three Simple Steps with Nair Hair Removal! (Sponsored Post)
SPOILER ALERT!!! I am human. Which means that I am also a mammal. This by definition means that along with wonderful things like being warm blooded and having an instinctual compulsion to care for my young, I have hair. Like most mammals, this hair is not confined to my scalp, but rather grows pretty much everywhere. As a female human, the only place I'd really like to have copious amounts of hair is on my head, but as biology has determined otherwise, this is not the case. Which leaves me with wonderful task of hair removal...
