OPI Spoken from the Heart

OPI Spoken from the Heart

2 coats

from the Hello Kitty by OPI Collection

My 10 year old daughter asked me to paint her nails for the Daddy/Daughter Dance on Saturday, and she picked OPI Spoken from the Heart. It looked great on her and even matched the flowers on her dress! She was so happy with her mani!

Swatches: Dermelect Fall/Winter Collection: Front Row

 

Dermelect Ferosh

2 coats

Deep and rich.... almost a blackened red. Not that flattering with my skintone.

Dermelect Sophisticate
2 coats

So so pretty. Not at all chalky like I was afraid it might be.

Dermelect She-She

2 coats

A gorgeous teal with a jelly-like quality.

Dermelect She-She

2 coats

on The Wild Child (age 7)

She wanted in on the swatching action and chose She-She as her NOTD. She loved it!

Dermelect Excentric 
2 coats

This deep grey has a lot of purple in it, which I love.

Here are some details from Dermelect's press release:

Straight from the runway and right to your fingertips, Dermelect Cosmeceuticals launches ME’s Fall/Winter 2013 Lacquer Collection, Front Row. Featuring four new hues that complement the season’s hottest trends, these lacquers will also keep your nails healthy with Dermelect’s signature anti-aging & peptide-infused formulation designed for women who desire to grow out long and strong natural nails.

“From the fur frenzy to fierce patent leather, Dermelect’s Front Row collection is all about texture,” says Celebrity Nail Tech, Elle. “These colors almost mimic expensive luxury fabrics from this season’s runways.”

With a jewel and earth-toned color palette, these creamy colors are your ultimate accessory.

· FEROSH-a rich luxe red

· SOPHISTICATE-a cool cashmere taupe

· SHE-SHE-a patent teal

· EXCENTRIC-a lavender grey fusion

HOW IT WORKS

The first coat instantly bonds to the nail, while the second fuses with the base coat to create a flexible web of color that resists chipping and improves brittleness. The ME colors combine fast drying, high shine and a healthy ‘green’ dose of vitamins, peptides and moisture, offering a colorful solution to the contemporary woman’s beauty concern—aging nails and hands. 

KEY INGREDIENT

· ProSina Protein Peptide-Hydrolyzed Keratin extracted from New Zealand sheep’s wool that strengthens the nails and moisturizes the skin.

BENEFITS

· Strengthens weak, brittle nails

· Restores nail flexibility

· Helps nails resist chipping and splitting

· Provides long-lasting, high shine and bold color

· Water and detergent resistant

· Protects against UV rays

· Formaldehyde, DBP and Toluene FREE

· Cruelty FREE (no animal testing)

Dermelect’s ME Front Row collection, available August 2013, retails for $14.00 and can be purchased online at www.dermelect.com and at high-end apothecaries, beauty boutiques, salons, spas, medi-spas and doctors offices.

The Wild Child's NOTD: Piggy Paint Forever Fancy

The Wild Child is now officially a Nail Blogger. At 4 1/2, she may just be the youngest one out there!

Piggy Paint sent her some nail polish to try and I can't tell you how excited she was for me to paint her nails with it and take some pics. She's a natural!

Piggy Paint Forever Fancy

Piggy Paint was created by a mom who was looking for a more natural alternative than traditional polish for her children. She created a water-based polish that is specially formulated of natural ingredients. Finally, a kid-friendly polish without the accompanying drawbacks of traditional polishes. It is free of formaldehyde, toluene, phthalates, biphenyl A, ethyl acetate and acetone... and made in the USA!

I think their tagline is just adorable, don't you?

The Wild Child LOVED her new polish and sat perfectly still while I painted her nails.

Piggy Paint polish retails for $8.99 per bottle. Visit their website to order or find a retailer in your area.

The Wild Child

The Wild Child (age 4 1/2) saw my Avon Mambo Melon nails and insisted I paint hers the same color. So cute!

The Wild Child's NOTD: China Glaze Something Sweet

China Glaze Something Sweet

Allow me to introduce you to a new Manicure Momma, The Wild Child. She's only 4 years old, so she's actually a Little Manicure Momma.

Today she is going to her first Daddy/Daughter Dance with Mr. Sasha and asked me to paint her nails for the occasion. This was the first time I did a full-out mani on her and she was so excited.

I did a coat of Orly Bonder, two coats of China Glaze Something Sweet from the Up and Away Collection, and then a coat of Seche Vite.
