Zoya Matte Velvet :: A New Trend In Natural Nail Polish.

Call me a magpie if you must but I’m a big fan of shine shimmer. Sure, I’ve long given up those eighties skintight silver leggings worn with a matching silver gold headband (which I proudly - at the time - made), but whether it’s sequins, glitter or a simple sheen, I’m often overheard oooing and ahhhing over just about anything with luminosity. Kind of unusual then that I’m newly smitten with the new Matte Velvet Nail Polish from Zoya , but they seem just right for the winter/fall

Wed, Oct 14 2009|0 Comments By: AndreaM As many of you know Fashion week was this past month of September. Did you know that at Dashing Diva they create nail polish colors just for fashion week? I did not know that. First a little about Dashing Diva:More than just the “tools” by which we work and play, our hands and feet are an important form of self-expression and presentation. They are also essential elements of good grooming. In the past, manicures and pedicures have often been viewed as h

Chanel Jade Le Vernis Nail Colour swatches!

Drumroll, please… Chanel Jade ! Earlier in the week, I shared swatches of the new Chanel Jade Rose nail polish but haven’t been able to get my hands (err… my nails) on a bottle of Jade because it’s hot hot hot. Last night, Mom came bearing a little gift! Proof that you should make friends and be extra nice to salespeople because they know where the secret stash is of the hot stuff, I’m serious! I love this minty hue so much, I want to marry it. Didn’t we say that in like– 5th gra

OPI España Haul, Review and Swatches

Okay, I just have to share my excitement because I recently stumbled on this obscure, hole-in-the-wall beauty supply store in my neighborhood, tucked at the very end-corner of a strip mall, that sells amazingly-priced OPI, Misa, Essie, Color Club, China Glaze polishes- you name it! OPI at ULTA retails for $8.50, and this store sells them for an eye-popping price of $4, and yes, without the exorbitant, outrageous shipping price of nail polish e-tailers like 8ty8beauty or Head2toe. I was simply

Hi-Def Nails

During the summer, I love to wear bright shades of nail polish on my toes. The colors just look so great against a tan with sandals or flip-flops. This year, my pick are the colors in Sally Hansen’s HD High-Definition Nail Color line. The 8 shades have real liquid crystals in them, which makes the finish [...]
