Nail care mini series: my 6 steps for happy nails

April 30, 2014 by Tasha 10 Comments

Today is day four in my mini series of nail care. Really, this is probably the shortest post in the whole series, but with some important tips! I get asked a lot what do I do to keep my nails looking good. Both using gel polish, and just in general. Some people who use gel polish regularly complain about peeling, but I haven't found this to be an issue. It can happen to me on occasion when I let my nails get really ... Read more »

April 29, 2014 by Tasha 11 Comments

Today is day three of my mini series on nail care. And I'm going to show you how to use a gel polish kit at home!

April 28, 2014 by Tasha 18 Comments

Today is day two of my nail care mini series. Hoorah! I'm going to talk a little bit about why I love using gel nail polish. For the vintage gal who loves to look polished but don't want to fuss with her nails several times a week, gel nail polish is for you! I converted to using gel nail polish a couple of years ago. I seriously haven't looked back since! It's been kind of my little nail miracle for my previously ... Read more »

Mini series intro: a week of nail love from a vintage gal

April 27, 2014 by Tasha 38 Comments

In the last couple of years, I've gotten a lot of compliments on my nails. I am not one to keep a beauty secret, especially since I spent most of my life with nails that were decidedly not enviable! Any chance I get, I tell people that I use gel nail polish, and I do it myself at home! I personally think it's kind of the ideal solution for the vintage gal (or any gal!) who wants to keep her nails up but with minimum ... Read more »
