OPI Glitter Off Peelable Base Coat Available for Pre-Order

There’s something intensely fun about glitzy, glittery nails. That sparkle can seep into your soul, spreading happiness almost as much as a bowl of ice cream or a sunny day. Oooh, how about seeing the glimmer of your glitter polish on a sunny day while eating a bowl of ice cream (or sorbet, whichever you prefer)? We just got goosebumps.

Okay, back to reality. We love glitter polish as much as the next girl, but then we have to remove it. Bummer. There’s nothing worse than scrubbing off a mess of glitter. This is where OPI Glitter Off Peelable Base Coat comes to the rescue.

Weekly Mani-peek: Nicci’s Velvet Manicure!

Hello lovelies,

It’s time for another weekly manicure.

This week I went for a plush yet sparkly velvet manicure. The base color is two coats CND Vinylux Tutti Frutti, with the velvet flocking powder pressed into the CND Vinylux Top Coat. The result is a fluffy, fun texture that has been getting lots of attention.

Mani of the Week

Hey everyone,

Here’s our next post for Mani of the week 🙂

This week i’m wearing CND Shellac in shade Negligee for a clean and simple look. It’s an almost-nude shade with a subtle iridescent sheen to it for an “extra glossy” effect. I love how CND Shellac makes my nails super-strong without adding bulk – hello spring cleaning! I’m looking at you!

Thank you and take care,
