Manicure Monday: BCA Strength

Manicure Monday: BCA Strength

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and I plan on showing my support for the cause the best way I know how – with a manicure.  Last year, each of our editors painted our pinkies pink to show our support, and this year, I’m going all out – all pink everything.  Whether you try this […]

Manicure Monday: Spring Designs

Manicure Monday: Spring Designs

My manicures are my form of art. Whether through colors or designs, manicures are how I express my style or current mood. I’m not impartial when it comes to my manicures, though – I definitely pick favorites. One of my absolute favorites was my galaxy manicure. On the other hand, there are manicures that aren’t […]

Manicure Monday: Delete Digital Drama

Seventeen Magazine and OPI have teamed up to Delete Digital Drama and take a stand against cyberbullying by creating their new #17delete polish. Bullying is a serious issue, and cyberbullying is arguably even worse.  The Delete Digital Drama campaign seeks to spread awareness about cyberbullying and put an end to it. I think the Internet is […]

Manicure Monday: Galaxy Nails

Manicure Monday: Galaxy Nails

Galaxy nails aren’t just for astronomy majors.  I’ve tried to recreate the look a few times and never been too happy with the result. They look absolutely beautiful, but look pretty complicated.  Every time I’ve tried in the past, they just look sort of … sloppy.  After many attempts and several different methods, I finally […]

Manicure Monday: Monochrome Matte French

Manicure Monday: Monochrome Matte French

A French manicure is always classy. It’s hands down my favorite way to do my nails. I think it’s sleek, pretty, feminine, and elongates your nails like no other manicure can. All that being said, if I wrote a blog each week about how much I love the classic French manicure, it would get boring. […]

Manicure Monday: Island of Misfit Toys

This week’s Manicure Monday is brought to you once again by Pretty & Polished! I’m still on the whole homemade nail polish kick – I’m actually considering making my own personal polish! We’ll see where that goes.  Regardless, I think finding a polish like this can be nail art in itself! This isn’t an Orly […]

Manicure Monday: Paint Your Pinkies Pink!

Manicure Monday: Paint Your Pinkies Pink!

In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, the editors of The Collabor-eight are spicing up our manicures by painting our pinkies pink! This idea was inspired by British nail polish brand Nails Inc.’s campaign for October. We’ve all found that this fun nail art sparks a conversation: what a great way to spread the word […]

Manicure Monday: Art Deco

Manicure Monday: Art Deco

With fall in full swing – when the weather is cooperating – it’s time to transition to autumn-inspired beauty looks.  Darker hues and deep metallics are big trends for this season, but it can be hard to leave the bright, fun manicures of last season behind. I created this week’s Manicure Monday to combine summer’s […]

Manicure Monday: Graduation Glitter

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 […]
