So, one of my new year's resolutions is to stop biting my nails for once and for all. In order to do that, I have a few different tactics. Keeping nail files handy and moisturizing are a few of my strategies. The most enjoyable part of breaking this habit, though, is the nail polish.
Lots of nail polish :) I bought several new shades, all work appropriate but still fun, to help motivate me.

| Gilty Pleasure |
First is Gilty Pleasure from Sally Hansen's Complete Salon Manicure. The color is great, fun but still subdued, but what I really love about this polish is that brush is wider, shorter, and thicker than the typical nail polish brush. It makes applying the polish super easy.

| School of Hard Rocks |
Next up is another Essie polish, School of Hard Rocks. I love this shade- it's got color and kick to make it fun, but it's not too bold. This is my first Essie polish, a brand everyone raves about, and now I see why. It goes on great and there are so many fabulous colors!

| Mink Muffs |
Another Essie polish that I am really liking is Mink Muffs. It's such a pretty brown!
 |
| Greycian Goddess |
Last but not least, Greycian Goddess by L'Oreal. It doesn't go on well as a single coat, but after two it looks great! I've been wanting a grey polish for a while and I'm happy with the results.
The strategy of lots of nail color varieties seems to be working- I haven't nibbled my nails yet! Anyone have any must-try colors?
Mink Muff's is my favorite of the three. Essie is by far my go-to fav.... have you ever tried navy blue polish? It's a little bold, but I really dig it.
ReplyDeleteMy everyday shade is ballet slippers by Essie. it's great for a good clean and pretty look. I'm really dying to try some of the more minty green colors for spring! :)
Ohhh...you found some great colors!! I really like the School of Hard Rocks one. I rarely wear nail polish, but I would definitely make an exception for this color.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful weekend Holly! xo
I love the gray shade you found. So pretty! I usually go for Essie in marshmallow when I get my nails done, it's a great soft white.
ReplyDeleteAww, I love your selection so much! Isn´t Essie the BEST? Good luck with getting rid of your bad habit!
ReplyDeleteHappy Monday!
