Nail Varnish of the Week (Frozen Edition)

Seeing as it is the holiday season, I decided to get in the spirit with some holiday type nails. I didn't feel like the classic red and green so I went for a more wintery look using blue and silver sparkles.

My ring finger was actually painted grey to keep the background a bit different and in the silver family.

Sometimes I spurge a bit and buy some Essie colors while there is a sale because lets be real. The colors are amazing and seem to hold up to their cost.

The grey color I used on my ring fingers was just a basic grey I picked up by Brucci.

The Essie color I used was "Rock The Boat" and the Brucci's Nail Hardener color used was "Alexandra's Hot Gray" and it is certainly hot.

The silver sparkle used mainly on my ring finger and scattered on my other digits was a simple Forever 21 color in "Glitterati."

Overall, I was quite happy with my nails and they lasted about the standard 5 days. The sparkles make any nail color chip faster. If you are looking for the perfect Frozen inspired nails, these are it!

Stay Fab!

Handling Finals Stress

Seeing as I have been through 7 rounds of college (uni) finals, I figured I could share how I handle the stress of intense test taking. Believe me, you don't need to be in uni or college to be stressed so feel free to steal some of these idea to keep yourself calm.

1) Listen to "Four." I swear this album is so chill and wonderful to listen to when you need a breather.

2) Grab a quick coffee/hot chocolate/tea. I love McDonalds Caramel Lattes (quite the calorie killer but its delicious and hey calories don't count during finals!)

3) Cry a bit. Seriously, cry. It gets all your emotions and tiredness out in one simple tear filled couple of minutes.

4) If crying isn't your thannggg, laugh. Whenever I need a laugh, I head to Jimmy Fallon's YouTube Channel or Ellen Degeneres' YouTube Channel.

5) Bake something. I pretty much always want chocolate so I decided to opt for some chocolate chip cookies this time around.

6) Stand in the shower for like 25 minutes. It is such a stress reliever and its a great way to relax. If you have a bath, opt for that but I have a small small small shower so I just stand there.

7) Queue your posts on Tumblr. Once you hit a certain number queued, log off and ignore your Tumblr for the next week. Believe me, I love Tumblr as much as the next person but somedays, you gotta queue and log out.

8) Paint your nails/ do a facial mask. Basically, Treat Yo Self. I used to never paint my nails but I started feeling more put together and more organized in a way? I don't know how to explain but when you see that person with their nails painted and think "Wow, they have their life together." They may not but they sure look that way.

8) Put your work aside and just enjoy your time with your friends or with your self. Don't ever be ashamed of hanging with yourself. You are your own best friend.

To everyone finishing up their semester. I wish you the best of luck and don't forget….

Nail Varnish of the Week

This week I splurged and spent $1.99 on nail polish. I REGRET NOTHING! This color is amazing and perfect for the wintery weather. Nude nail colors are often hit or miss but this almost nude/brown looks very nice on my skin tone.

Feeling very 💅

This nude/brown color is by Wet n Wild Megalast. I wore it for over a week and had few chips, definitely worth the money I spent.

"Private Viewing" is the color in 204B, which is the perfect cheeky name for a nude nail color.

This color was achieved after four coats of polish. As you can see it was a bit bubbly but it was hardly noticeable while I walked around.

Stay Fab!

Nail Varnish of the Week

I have been straight up obsessed with this nail color since I got it in my September Ipsy bag. The color is super easy to apply but just a warning, as any red color, it sucks to take off.

It is the perfect "not black" nail color when you want to add a subtle color.

Pacifica is the brand which is a 100% vegan and cruelty free company. 

"Red Red Wine" is the name of the nail color.

Basically, this color lasts for a good 5-7 days and is easily applied with two coats. It is always my go to color when I'm trying to feel a bit fancier.

Until next time babes!

XOXO- M.S.
