Rave, More about Nailssss

I love talking about nails on here, because it is so easy and I've been nail polish obsessed lately.

My recent obsession for nails has been the highly talked about Seche Vite fast dry top coat. Trust me, I thought for the longest time I do not need a $10 top coat. It just seemed ridiculous. Now, I regret not buying this sooner. This top coat is thebomb.com It makes even the cheapest nail polish look like a glossy shiny salon manicure. You know how celebrities always have those really really glossy shiny nails? I always wondered how I could achieve the same look at home without going to the salon. This topcoat is worth it 100%, I would recommend it to anyone who loves changing their nail polish, to people who want to cut back on trips to the salon and especially for people who love creamy non shimmery nail polishes. Even if I use a $9 OPI nail polish, the shininess of the nail polish alone will get dull within a few days. With the Seche Vite, my nails remain glossy and chip-free for days! It sounds like I'm promoting this product or something, but I am just really happy with this product despite it being on the pricier side.

I've really been loving Jade is the New Black by OPI. I kinda wear it too much haha. Right now I've gone back to my favorite color nail polish of all time, black. I love black nails, they are just nice sleek and sexy looking. I'll probably change the black in a couple days to my second favorite nail polish color, mint. My favorite (well only) mint colored polish is Hey! Get in Lime! by OPI. 



This particular black polish is Black on Black by sinful colors. As far as the polish goes it is just OKAY. I've tried many drug store black nail polishes and this one is better than most, but not by a lot. I find that black polishes tend to be on the goopier thicker side. 

Another thing I've been using to get the perfect nails at home are by Sally Hansen. 


These two together work miracles. My cuticles have never looked better without this pair. The sally hansen cuticle trimmer and the instant cuticle remover are a must for me. I have pretty awful cuticles. It's pretty annoying because my best friend has like 0 cuticles it's weird and lucky. Anyways, I put the cuticle remover on for 15 - 20 seconds then I go in with the trimmer tool and just get all those nasty cuticles out of the way. I highly recommend these tools, I rarely do my nails without them these days.

  1. I bought these items today because I see how amazing your nails/cuticles look in your pics.And I couldn't resist using them as soon as I walked in the door.Literally,I got home washed my hands took the polish I had off,put the cuticle stuff on it and gave myself a mani.The cuticle trimmer I bout is a little different but it's also by Sally Hansen.I must say I'm in awe of how amazingly great my hands look now!I always do my own mani and pedis unless it's a special occasion,it saves me money.

    Well all in all,
    thanks for sharing your product uses!
