Claw Candy: Sally Hansen's Magnetic Nail Polish

One of the goodies that I got in my Summer Vox Box from Influenster was this gem from Sally Hansen.  It's the new Magnetic Nail Polish in Red-y Response!  Right now the big nail trend on the block is magnetic nails, and now these polishes are finally making their way to the drugstore.  

Red-y Response is a metallic burgundy color.  I'm glad I received this particular color because I already have 3 magnetic polishes from Nails Inc. and was afraid they'd give me a nail color that I already had.  

As far as application and performance it performed just as well as the Nails Inc. magnetic polish that was almost double the price.  It was just as easy to put on and lasted the same amount of time.  And as an extra cherry on top, Sally Hansen has a much larger range of colors.

You can find more information about this polish at the Sally Hansen website.  It retails for $9-10.

My Influenster Summer Vox Box is Hot!

I was lucky enough to get in on Influenster's latest Summer Vox Box and I couldn't be happier with it.  The Love Vox Box I got a few months ago was really nice but this Summer one takes the cake! 

Do your nails grow out curvy and/or downward? So do mine! Here's how I fix it!

My natural nails on a good day actually, they're usually much worse

When I was a kid I had awesome nails that my young age wouldn't allow me to fully appreciate.  They grew like weeds and never broke.  Unfortunately, good things never last and by the time I was in middle school, while they still grew fast, they began to grow out weird.  When the tips get to a certain point they start to bend down towards my fingertips instead of growing straight out.  My mom says they're doing the wave lol.  To this day I still don't know what causes this but it's so frustrating, and I have tried EVERYTHING to fix it to no avail.  Although I can't get to the root of the problem, I have found a way to straighten and maintain them short term!  So if you're struggling with the same problem, hopefully this will help :)

Claw Candy: Snow Mint

I've gotten a lot of new polishes/nail products lately and last night I couldn't pick just one that I wanted to try...so  I settled on 4 lol.  I also wanted something to go with the mini snow storm that us in the Northeast got this past weekend, so snowflakes and glitter were a must!  

• E.L.F. Polish in Mint Cream
• Essie Polish in Set in Stones - love these new chunky glitter polishes!
• Sally Hansen Insta Dri Polish in Whirlwind White (snowflakes)
• Snowflakes made with Salon Perfect Nail Art Kit - review to come soon!
• Nails Inc. Kensington Caviar Top Coat

Did you get any snow?  It's been a very uncharacteristic winter where I am, I almost forgot it was here :)

Claw Candy: Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure in Fairy Teal

I picked up Sally Hansen's Complete Salon Manicure in Fairy Teal during CVS's clearance sale.  It's a lovely dark teal nail polish that goes on opaque in one coat.  In person, the polish has much more green in it than the above photo suggests.  In my opinion, it's a true teal with an equal balance of blue & green, not leaning more blue as in the picture.  And the name 'Fairy Teal' is just adorable.  It was one of those polishes that I bought mostly because of the name, although I'm definitely glad to introduce this shade into my arsenal!  I don't have anything like it.
