My first successful French mani and my first post!

Hi everyone! I'm Marissa and this is my very first post...and I'm SO excited! Basically, my nails have been very short and weak my whole life. Within the last year, I have really started taking care of them by using some new products I have discovered and by always keeping them pretty and polished! :o) While attempting to keep my nails in better condition, I have discovered a love obsession with nail polish! Right now, I am up to almost 100 bottles (not including a few minis I have from Claire's and, of course, numerous top and base coats). I have decided to share my adventures in polishing and certainly hope you all will enjoy reading my blog as much as I know I will enjoy writing it! 


For my very first post, I wanted to share with you the very first successful French Manicure I have done!  I always use Seche Vite Rebuild as my base coat because I really feel it has helped A LOT with making my nails stronger. I then add a coat of Sally Hansen Strengthening Base/Top Coat. This not only makes my nails strong, but I think it really helps with polishes that stain! For the tips I used China Glaze Dorothy Who? I absolutely love blue polish...and anything that sparkles, so this is definitely a winner in my book! Seche Vite was used for the top coat. I would also like to apologize in advance for the quality of my pictures...they were taken with my iPhone. Oopsy!

Doing this manicure was much easier than I thought it would be. For instructions with photos you can go here. This is where I first found it and I am not usually someone who could do something like this, so if i can do it so can you! Whelp, this is it for my first blog. I hope y'all enjoyed it and I'll see ya next time!
