New Show to Watch: Nail Files

I was browsing through channels when I saw something called Nail Files on the TVGuide Network. So I tuned in and watched a couple of episodes and it turns out I really like it. Its a show about small business owner, Katie Cazorla. The show is based in Los Angeles, which is where her business The Painted Nail is located. Nail Files promises to be full of celebrities, drama, and secrets behind the success of The Painted Nail. One of the episodes I watched had Rap/Hip Hop artist Too Short(One of My Faves BTW). Katie even did this really funny booty shaking for him.
Click Here for an interview w/ Katie Cazorla!!

To sum it up, its pretty entertaining and shows "the behind the scenes" of a woman owning a small business in the beauty industry. Cazorla is pretty crazy, a little dramatic, and really inspiring to someone who wants to own their own business in the beauty industry. You should check out the show its on Tuesdays at 10/9c on TVGuide.

Can't wait to visit The Painted Nail!! ❤true

Baby Pink & Houndstooth Hearts

I was in desperate need of a polish change!! That beings said, I went into my bag of tricks to see what I could find. Excuse the mess on a couple of my nails, I didn't wait for them to fully dry, hee hee. Here are the results...










Ok, so for this look I paired the baby pink with the houndstooth to make it a little bit softer. Lots of other colors would work with this, but I didn't want to go too dark since it is summertime.

Here are the products that I used for the look:
-Forever21, Love & Beauty Nail Polish in Baby Pink $2.50
-Sally Henson, Salon Effects Real Nail Polish Strips in 240 Check It Out 8.50&up
-Sally's Beauty Supply, Sally Girl Nail Polish in Black $0.99

I will probably be doing a tutorial on this look in the future, but until then I hope this inspires you, Happy Saturday!!
