Tis the Season to be jolly........

Could also be the season to break the bank buying gifts...

Or not.  Me? I always set a limit. With seven children, 6 significant others, four grandchildren....WOW!!!

My one regret is not being a billionaire


So this Christmas I'm not feeling my usual non-Grinchy self.  I have been feeling icky, down in the dumps blah. Is that even an actual diagnosis?? I wonder if there is an ICD-10 code for that?


This weeks look is simple. A little bit of glitter. Boom. Done.  I do like it though, it goes with everything.  I used IBD Just Gel Base Coat. I cured this in an LED lamp for one minute. For the glitter I used Fairy
Glo Color Coat. This is three coats. You will need to cure each coat for one minute. To finish, I used IBD Just Gel Top Coat. Guess what? Yep, you guessed it. Cure for one minute. After you have finished the curing process, you will need to wipe the sticky residue off your nails. You can do this two ways. You can buy Gel Cleanser from just about any Beauty Supply Store or Amazon. It will cost you about $6 for a 4oz bottle. Or you can do what I do. Buy a bottle of 91% Isopropyl Rubbing Alcohol. You can buy this at Wal-Mart, Rite-Aid or any other Drug Store. This stuff will cost about $2. It works just the same as the expensive stuff.





 Here's a picture of my supplies.



I bought everything except the Alcohol at Amazon. The Alcohol I bought at Wal-Mart.

On another note......

Are you a makeup brush fanatic?  I sure as heck am!!  I was really excited to learn about Live Glam. You can get make-up brushes delivered right to your mail box every month for $19.99. You will get any where from three to six Morphe make-up brushes. I just got my December's box and there six brushes. These are the brushes that came in the December box.






This isn't a sponsored video. As I said I buy the box every month. I will however get points if you use this link. These brushes are some of the softest brushes I have ever used.

A woman is helpless only when her nail polish is drying......

My daughter gave me a sign that says just that as a gift. She is so right. I can cook anything I choose, change the oil in a car, change a tire and a hundred other things I learned along the way. Mess with me when my polish is drying, you are going to be in trouble. \ Seriously. Painting nail is an art, even if you are putting on one color. It's tricky,it takes practice and its frustrating as Hell if you have to start over. Be patient. Let a woman get her nails dry and everything is awesome.  Fortunately my kids aren't little anymore and then fend for themselves most of the time. Other times it's like this "Mom, Mooooom, I've cut my carotid artery! I'm bleeding!!"  Yes dear, I'll be right there. Let my nail polish dry. Seriously, it's never that severe. Funny though. On with the polish at hand.... I really like the Pro-Fx Nail Concealer. It makes a nice smooth base to work with. I use one coat. It dries fast which is a bonus. Who really...

Helloo Baaaaby.....

Those are the words of the immortal Big Bopper aka J. P. Richardson who died in a plane crash along with Buddy Holly and Richie Valens, February 3rd, 1959. Truly a great tragedy for the world. Haven't a clue what I'm talking about, look it up. My last post I was struggling to get my nails back in shape. Sadly, they would grow a bit longer than my fingertip and then peel. I couldn't have a Nail Art Blog without nails!! Well now I do. Let's check it out.  Here we are... I decided on this color because it's Spring in my neck of the woods. These are really simple, I think anyone could do them. These are PolyGel. Not a gel, not an acrylic. You do have to cure then in an LED/UV light but you could do them with regular polish and some nail art supplies. The pinky and thumb nail have gold nail foil on them. The ring finger has some glitter and a gold tone shield. The middle finger has some pearls and rhinestones attached. The index finger is my favorite. I starte...

Wishing you the very best Holiday season

Yes, I know it's been two months since my last post. My health issues have carried over for two months and I have been exhausted. I was finally feeling better and I lost someone very dear to me. When I was born. I was blessed with amazing parents, my Nana and my Aunt Wanda.  Wanda has always treated me like her own. I spent every minute of my childhood that I could at Wanda and Nana's house. It was home to me. My grandmother taught me how to iron, cook and sew among other things. I lost her when I was 11. Both parents passed away in 2003. Wanda was always there for me. She was like a second mom to me. She helped me with anything she could.  She babysat my six kids when I was a single parent going to school. She treated my kids like they were her own. She was an amazing woman. She worked at Grand Coulee Dam when it was being built, she traveled and she truly loved life. She was a Christian and she devoted her life to Jesus Christ. Back in July when I had surgery on my foo...
