Question of the Week - What are your three must-have products for a home manicure?
Answer - Dermalect Launch Pad base coat, Nail polish (preferably an awesome color) and Fast Dry Top Coat. Wait…That's too obvious. If you really want to have your mani look like it was from a salon, you need to have an orange stick to push down cuticles and clean up wet polish mistakes, A small detail brush dipped in nail polish remover (Preferable Zoya Remove +) to clean up errant strokes of polish around the nail, and a buffer to smooth down the edges of your nails after filing them so you get a nice rounded finish on the edge of your nails. What about you?
Nouveau Cheap - ChapStick has been releasing some yummy Limited Edition flavors over the past few years, but their new Cupcake Creations Collection really takes the cake (pun intended). Grab these babies while you can!
