Nail Care #1

                   Hey guys so I'm finally posting part of my nail care routine. I'll just get to it!



To remove my nail polish I use cotton rounds that I cut in half and for a while now I have stayed away from pure acetone. This brand of polish remover is actually sold at the DollarTree and its awesome. This part is really up to you, whatever you use really tends to have not much of a difference but do keep in mind that pure acetone is very drying.
 
 
 
 
To file my nails I use these 2 nail files and buffer. This too is up to you, whatever you like and works for you is fine.
 
 
This is right after me removing polish and filing my nails down a bit because of a break on my pinkie. Look at how my cuticles they look a bit dry and overgrown but the next step will help with that.
 
 
 
Next step is to push my cuticles back and use the Cuticle Eliminator. Right after I wash my hands and scrub a bit with my Little Panda Brush.
 
 
 
So I put this on and wait 5 secs and them start to push my cuticles back. This stuff is awesome you can find it at Sally's or you can use the one you prefer its up to you. I stoped cutting my cuticles a while back and this bottle has lasted me all this time. At first I would use this like every other day because I was so use to cutting them, but now I only do this once a week or not even.
 
 
 
This is right after washing my hands and scrubbing my nails with the brush. I dont know if the photos really show the difference beteween the before and after.
 
 
 
 
Now its time for a good rich handcream. This is super importart if you want healty nails and hands. These are some of the ones i use and love.
 
 
 
After applying handcream. So I leave this on for about 2 hours then wipe my nails with alcohol before polishing them.
 
 
 
I really hope this is of some use for you girls. Let me know of anyting you want to know. ASK AWAY.

ETERNAL Fashion Review + JellySandwich Mani

So if you follow me on IG you know that I got 3 ETERNAL Fashion nail polishes yesterday. I found these at Navarro Pharmacy its a Hispanic Store and they were only $1.49! I loved the price but more than anything the colors and the formula, I'll be back there for more very soon. Sadly these babies don't have names but instead and ID # so that's what I'll be calling them.




This is what I use as my base and topcoat when I do my swatching, even sometimes when I do my nails, depends what's closest!(this ColorClub topcoat dries super fast!!)
 
 
 
 
 


So here they are, I put their "name" on the caps so you know who is who!
 
 
 
 
This is the orange/pink goodness of 79E. This polish was almost a one coater and that in itself is a huge plus in my book!(I have 2 coats on) 
 
 
 
 
 
Another photo of 79E.
 
 
 
 
 
And last one!
 
 
 
 
 
 
This is 13E a loud tangerine almost jelly polish. It went on like a dream and it dries super shinny almost doesn't need a topcoat!( I have on 2 coats)
 
 
 
 
 
 
Another look at 13E.
 
 
 
 
 
 
Now we have 59E, I have to say this is my favorite of the 3! Its a super pale pink jelly with shimmer that is undetected in photos but in person looks amazing!(I have on 3 coats)
 
 
 
 
 
Another looks at 59E.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
And YES I had to see how a jellysandwich would look with 59E so over it I put 1 thin coat of Trust Fund Baby by Spoiled and then 2 more coats of 59E.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
So what do you thing about these? Like any of the colors?
