Manicure Monday: Halloweenified
With Halloween coming up, I wanted to make sure this week’s Manicure Monday was spooky! Whether you dress up in full costume for Halloween or not, nail art is a great way to celebrate the holiday. It’s a simple statement that can make a big impact. And with Halloween, there are so many different designs […]

Manicure Monday: Feathery Accent
It’s Manicure Monday once again! I’ve been pulling a lot of inspiration from Pinterest for my manicures lately, whether it’s for the colors, the theme, or the actual design. Ideas have to come from somewhere, and Pinterest is a great place to go for inspiration of any kind! I’ve noticed a lot of manicures that […]
A Beauty Review: Lancome L’Absolu Nu
LANCÔME L’Absolu Nu in Red Chiffon ($29) A bright, shimmery red lipstick. LANCÔME L’Absolu Nu in Beige Tulle ($29) A sheer taupe-y beige. As a college student on a budget, I am a firm believer that many drugstore brands can be just as good as high-end brands. I have to say, though, that money is well spent on LANCÔME L’Absolu […]

I created this week’s Manicure Monday to combine summer’s […]
Manicure Monday: Neon Brights
Happy Manicure Monday, beauty lovers! I wanted today’s manicure to be fun and different. Something that looks difficult, but really isn’t. You can’t get a complicated-looking manicure using only one color (I don’t think!), so the key to this mani is using a lot of bright colors that stand out against each other. Love this […]
Manicure Monday: Faux Claws
The thing I might love most about nail polish is how versatile it is. You can take the same colors and apply them in different ways to get completely different manicures. On the other hand, you could do the exact same design in different colors and get a different effect! For example, a classic French […]
Manicure Monday: Graduation Glitter
For my graduation from Villanova University this May, my two sisters got me the best graduation present – personalized nail polish. Thanks to Dollish Polish, a homemade nail polish vendor, they had two polishes made for me that no one else in the world has – “‘V’ for Villanova” and “Nova Nation,” two phrases that […]
