Hey, dear friend. wonderful as well as beautiful greetings to you on this summertime Saturday.
With sad, unsettling things in the news this week, makeup seems additional frivolous…but all of us requirement a break from genuine life sometimes. as well as to be honest, that’s one of the reasons I like makeup as well as beauty. best now I’m soothing my spirit sitting by the windows as well as playing with these bottles of Essie Gel Couture nail polish ($11.50 each).

Did you just do a double-take? I did the very first time I saw these twisty bottles (inspired by twirling runway dresses). For a second there I believed that Essie went as well as lost her mind with a bottle redesign, since I like those traditional square Essie bottles, however no, these are a totally new, extra collection offered now in Essie’s long-term line.
There are 42 shades, as well as they work a great deal like gel polishes. You don’t have to utilize them with a base coat. You just apply nevertheless numerous coats you want, then add a layer of the special topcoat that includes the collection (it’s expected to be the one that includes the collection, so not any type of old topcoat).
There’s a broad variety of colors from semi-sheer pastels, like the pinks as well as beiges Essie is well-known for, together with rather a few fiercer colors like dark blues as well as fun greens.

I like gel nail polishes like these since of exactly how extremely quick they dry, as well as these are no joke! When I do two layers as well as the top coat, they’re totally bone dry — like, I can type, fiddle with my hair, whatever — in 10 minutes. That is SO fast.
But what I truly like about these polishes is the brush. Essie phone calls it a “swirl stem brush,” as well as it’s flat, broad as well as tapers down from the edges to a rounded point in the center, to ensure that when you press the clean down on the nail, it spreads to evenly cover a broad surface area as you draw the clean from the base of the nail to the tip.
Se toimii.
It seems like rather a few gel polishes boast of a very long (almost obscenely long) wear time, some as high as 14 days. this does too, as well as I’m like, “Fo’ reals? Is the person using this polish likewise using gloves 24/7? Does she never do dishes or button buttons or zip zippers?”
These certainly don’t last 14 days for me, however they do look poi-fect for seven. After that, though, chips begin to appear, as well as quite soon I look like I’ve been gnawing on my nails.
In other news…
Pannukakut.
Because they remind me of my childhood.
Both of my parents worked out of the home when I was growing up as well as had to begin their commutes early, so during the institution week I was accountable for making my breakfast every morning.
I’d always make something easy…like cereal, however then on Saturdays my people would make something delicious, as well as when that tasty breakfast included pancakes, it always felt like I’d won the lottery or something, LOL! I felt cared for, liked as well as protected, as well as the world felt like a wonderful as well as fantastic place.
I looooove me some pancakes…
This seems like a great day for pancakes.
Take care of yourself, will ya? I hope the sunshine discovers you.
