Polish Addict - Princess Sophia and Cucumber Melon Cuticle Oil

 
Hello!! Happy Friday already!! Anyone have any New Year's Eve plans??  2013 will be here in a few!!!
 
Today I have Polish Addict Princess Sophia to show you! I started with a 1 coat of ManGlaze ILF as a base.  I love this color!! It has a gorgeous shimmer to it!!
 
 
 
Then I applied 1 coat of Princess Sophia!  I actually didn't photograph this with a top coat on!  I applied one later to preserve it, but it stayed fairly glossy for not having one on in these pics!
 
 
Laura, the owner, has a shop at www.shoppolishaddict.bigcartel.com. She should be restocking today!! Make sure you check it out, because she has some beautiful creations available!! You can purchase Princess Sophia full size for $4 on sale right now!
 
To stay up to date with Polish Addict for upcoming collections, restocks, and other business news, you can follow @polish_addict_34 on Instagram and check out Polish Addict on Facebook too!  
 
 
I don't know what made me think to pair these two, but I loved this!!! The glitters would glow and it felt almost like a mermaid type mani!  The hearts are a fun addition to this too!
 
 
 
 
Close up!!  You can see the shimmer in ILF and the gorgeous glitters of Princess Sophia!
 
Next I have a quick review of the organic cuticle oil by Polish Addict!!
 
 
 
You can choose your scent - Organic Cuticle Oil for $4 for a full size!! Hurry before the sale ends!!
BEWARE! LOL  This is the before, but seriously, my nails have been really rebelling lately!  They are staining more than usual and you can see my index peeling :-(  I definitely need to start using my cuticle oil a lot more because of this winter!!   But yuck, my nails look so bad here! haha
 
 
I love to have lots of cuticle oil on to soak for a few minutes.  I rub it in over my nail and cuticles, as well as entire hands.  I then wash off and apply lotion.  Otherwise, I apply smaller amounts of cuticle oil and rub in.  Again, lotion helps take away some of that greasy-ness, so you can keep the oil on.  I love to apply before bed.  Cuticle Oil helps moisten the nail, so when it grows it is healthier.  It also keeps the skin around the nail moisturized.
 
Here is after!  In my opinion, it's much better (not perfect, but hey, I'll take it)!  This is after washing, but cuticle oil usually remains as the water usually beads off the hand.  Actually, I can still smell the cucumber melon on my skin and I used it over 5 hours ago! YUM!  It makes me want to snag some of her other scents too!  Peppermint Bark and Vanilla Bean Noel are limited edition, but I want to eat them both from their names alone!!
 
I hope you enjoyed this look at 2 products from Polish Addict!!  Again, please check out her many other goodies at www.shoppolishaddict.bigcartel.com!
 
 
Everyone enjoy the weekend!!!  It's the last one of 2012~!!!
Much Love,
Crystal
