Nail Crave: Speckled Polish

Don’t get me wrong, I’m a complete glitter girl. I’m one to wear a thick, chunky, glitter polish on every finger and love every sparkly second of it. I’m also that girl who can get distracted by her own polished fingers when I’m in the middle of something important… However, what I don’t enjoy about wearing thick glitter is the removal process. You m... More...

Okay, so there is always a controversy over whether schools should replace junk-food vending machines with healthy vending machines. In my opinion, I think schools should get rid of food vending machines all together and replace them with nail polish vending machines! Just some food for thought… This machine is made by the brand “Nailmatic”, centered in Paris. You can b... More...

Wait, what? Yes. Blood facials are a thing. Ok, so what it is, is when blood is spun in a centrifuge, which then separates it into red blood cells and plasma. (I already feel light-headed) Then you take the plasma part, which is rich in platelets and packed with anti-inflammatory properties, and inject it into your face. OMG. But why? I mean, I guess the upside is that it’s all natural? It... More...

Tomorrow is the first day of spring, and I’m not as excited as every other person in NYC. If New York City was a high school cafeteria, I’d be sitting at the World of Warcraft-playing outcast table because I get such scathing, dismissive looks when I say I’m kind of sad winter is over. Why? Because I love a good oxblood lipstick, all black everything when it comes to clothing, and I... More...

We’ve all been to those high end department stores, staring at the $800 shoes, just wishing we could buy ourselves a pair. Louboutins are a status symbol; when you’re walking down the streets of 5th avenue and spot those cherry-red bottoms, you know you’re seeing a coveted pair of Christian Louboutins. Now, we can take the $800 shoe and replicate the infamous red-soles on ou... More...

Honestly, up until now, removing my gel manicures consisted of forcibly peeling off the stubborn polish along with most layers of my nails. This would leave behind thin, frail, unattractive fingernails similar to what Anne Hathaway looked like in Les Misérables. The last thing anyone needs is to be reminded of that, which is why everyone should have the knowledge of how to properly remove their... More...

I love nail polish, and we all love manicures. Everything from the sleek look of the square bottle on the shelf to the sticker label with the color on it. The right shade can bring your outfit to a whole new level, and Spring polishes are my favorite. As soon as March comes around, I grab my remover and scrub off the dark color that has been living on my hands since November and this seaso... More...

When I was growing up, in the south, in the 90′s, everyone smoked. Smoking was something you inherited from your parents, like pores the size of hubcaps, or inverted nipples. Living in New York now, very few of my friends smoke. Those that do, only do so when they are drinking. I have never personally understood how the two go hand-in-hand, since drinking is supposed to lead to sleeping with ... More...
