[NOTDs] November & December 2016

I post my nail-of-the-day pictures on my nails-only Instagram account.  You can also find them on my "Prim & Polished" Pinterest board.  This post will be a rehashing of my manicures from November and December 2016.

Femme Fatale Eilonwy

China Glaze Seas and Greetings

Colors by Llarowe Intrigue 

Zoya Constance (Satin Finish top coat)

A England Virgin Queen

Unless otherwise specified, I use a basecoat, two coats of color, then a topcoat.  I use OPI Natural Base Coat and New York Color Grand Central Station for a topcoat.

[NOTDs] December 2015

I post my nail-of-the-day pictures on my nails-only Instagram account.  You can also find them on my "Prim & Polished" Pinterest board.  This post will be a rehashing of my manicures from last month, December 2015.  My cuticles were wrecked this month, so I tried to care for them, by applying cuticle cream and avoiding nail polish remover.

Neverland Lacquers Candy Cane Lane over Julep Soraphine (1 coat each)

Zoya Oswin (no top coat)

Unless otherwise specified, I use a basecoat, two coats of color, then a topcoat.  I use OPI Natural Base Coat and New York Color Grand Central Station for a topcoat.

[NOTDs] Holidays 2014

This post explains where I have been and my plans for the blog.  While I was away, I posted my nail-of-the-day pictures on Instagram (see also:  my new nails-only account).  This post will be a rehashing of my manicures from the 2014 holiday season.

Lynnderella Ribbon Candy over Julep Soraphine (1 coat each)

Essie Shearling Darling with Sinful Colors Gilded added to the accent nails

Candy Lacquer Rockin A-round the Christmas Tree over Zoya Giovanna, with Zoya Isla and a Neverland Lacquers tree nail vinyl (and glitter) on the accent nail

Neverland Lacquers Sugarplum Fairy

Revlon Catty

Nicole by OPI All is Glam, All is Bright

Zoya Tomoko (no top coat)

Unless otherwise specified, I use a basecoat, two coats of color, then a topcoat.  My favorite topcoat has always been New York Color Grand Central Station.  I don't remember what basecoat I used back in 2014; possibly it was Zoya Anchor or the OPI Natural Base Coat.
