Each Wednesday, the Metro Atlanta Beauty Bloggers will answer a beauty-related question just for fun! This week's question
is...



What are your favorite big name nail polish brands? (OPI, China Glaze, Zoya, etc)


Yay! A polish question!
This is SUCH a hard one though.
As fellow nail polish lovers/bloggers, I'm sure alot of you can relate on how hard it would be to pick just ONE favorite brand.
But...when I think of all of the things I look for in a big name brand polish...variety, formula, consistency, value for quality, ease of access.
I think I'd have to say my favorite big brand polish line is Color Club.
They have a huge selection of colors, great formulas, unique shades and lots of collection releases throughout the year. They generally retail for $8 but find a polish etailer like 8ty8beauty or ebay and you can get them for less than half of that. I mean come on, a $3 holo? Yeah, Color Club it is.

This weeks Teal Tuesday Challenge is to do a Funky French.

Typically, a funky french is a twist on the standard French Manicure. And it's pretty easy to twist it but still keep it "Frenchy".

I took this opportunity to try out some Flocked Leopard Black and Gold 'Fluffy' Nail Stickers that I received from KKCenterHk to review.

It's Monday, you know this, right?

Ugh...Hopefully I'm asleep right now because as always, I have to be up at the buttcrack of dawn today.

But luckily it is going to be an epic nail mail day here, so I don't mind being up early, because I'll be stopping at the PO for one giant package and more to come later in the day. 

Have I mentioned I thoroughly hate my mail person? Pretty sure she hates us, too.

She tried delivering this monster package on Saturday (which is kind of a shock, because usually she can't be bothered to drive up our drive) - but I was in the shower and by the time my boyfriend realized it was the mail lady she was already leaving. He whistled out to her, and she looked right at him, and kept on going. What a scum, huh? I have a lot of problems with her laziness, and when it happens on a Saturday and I have to wait 2 extra days to get it because they're closed on Sunday, yeah, you aint messing with my polish without a complaint, lady.

Wow...so that happened.

And now this is....

This week in the Adventures in Stamping group, the challenge was to use something I think was described as "eye searing pink and purple" so I did my best.

Also - I recently received a new stamping plate from Born Pretty Store, which I'm using/reviewing here.

So what did you think about the stamping plate? The images all stamp REALLY well and I love how well they mix with the other asian style plates I own. Born Pretty Store has a ton of cool stuff, not just nail related but jewelry and all kinds of girlie products.

They have offered all of my readers a 7% OFF Discount - just use code LAUJ61
