I'm back!

Hello lovelies. I'm sorry I've been MIA for so long. My new job has turned out to be much more work and less time to play than anticipated and I've essentially been sick with something or another since February. I currently have an ulcer on my eye so I can't see anything and I'm living in the dark. Needless to say makeup and nail polish have been a thing of the past recently.

I did notice I was growing sad and bored and I realized while I wear hardly any makeup most days I found it fun to play with and nail polish was my one source of color and fun. My nails, as you will see soon, are short nubbins that I've grown to love. No more trying to have long beautiful nails.  I've come to accept my nails for what they are - and polish lasts days and days longer now! 

See y'all soon! =*

Wet N Wild Megalast Lipsticks

First, to preface, I'm sorry this has taken so long to come out. I've been working on it for WEEKS (months actually) but I'm just now posting it because I kept having to retake pictures and I lost my peach one. =/ So no pics for that one.

I wanted to hurry and get this out because these are great little numbers for only $1.99 so they'd make great stocking stuffers!!

***********

If you had asked me a year ago, I would have said I don't like lipstick. I own about three, and that's because I've purged the rest (to my mother - she loves lipstick and she's always happy to get free lipsticks, Hi Mom!!). Anyway recently I've made a love connection with lipstick. And Wet N Wild makeup.

Wet N Wild Megalast Lipsticks are a deal at $1.99 each! They have a great color selection, and at that price, I just kept picking up more as I kept seeing blog posts and makeup looks using these great little lippies!

Happy 12-12-12. The last repeating numbers day EVER. Does that make you a little sad? Even though this repeating number really means nothing, it's fun and I always look forward to it once I know it's coming up!

Anyway, on to the polish!

Shimmer Karen is a gorgeous mix of pinks, purples, and blue with hints of gold and green. This polish truly has everything and it meshes beautifully.

Update

Hello lovelies.

I'm so sorry I've been MIA. Things have been really busy at work and we're trying to get our old home ready to sell and buy a new one (in different states) and it's been a little overwhelming.

Since I've moved to a colder climate, the dry air is wreaking havoc on my hands and for those of you who know a little more about me, I'm in the medical field so I'm washing my hands or using alcohol based foam every 15-20 minutes so my hands and nails are a HOT MESS. I've had nekkid nails for weeks. Eek!

These are all poor excuses for being a bad blogger, and I wanted to let ya'll know I'm still here and I <3 ll.="ll." p="p" ya="ya">
I've also developed some apprehension toward my blog due to some unkind comments on here and it started making me feel bad about myself. I know I don't have amazing nails like the big known bloggers, and lately I've been getting down on myself and my blog so I haven't been going near my computer lately.

In the meantime I'm going to work on editing some photos/posts I have squirreled away for such times and hopefully get back to business!

Hope all is well with each and every one of you!

Giveaway winner!

Happy belated Turkey day! I was on the road all of yesterday and am wide awake now at 2:30. There is something wrong with me.

Anyway.
