The Pandemic of 2020 certainly taken a toll on my hands and nails- early this summer I had a terrible eczema outbreak on my fingers and under my nails that I am pretty sure was triggered by hand sanitizer and increased hand washing. It was painful and looked so bad and I sadly had to take a break from painting my nails for a while. But things are much better now that I am not using hand sanitizer and making sure to moisturize my hands often during the day.

I am so excited for the happiness the holidays bring! I hope to pull out many seasonal favorite shades to wear the rest of this year and want to get back to taking pictures and blogging. I missed my hobby so much!

I can never turn down holo polish... so when I saw these I had to order. Each set includes 6 shades and is $36. Of course I ordered both sets....

I have been experimenting with Zoya's Gelie Cure system and have found that using their Naked Gelie as a base (on top of a gripping primer) and a topcoat works great for me and gets me at least a week of wear.
