Food for cuticles

I wanted to share this awesome product I found Orly Cuticle Therapy Creme. I found this at Sally's Beauty Supply of course.


I purchased this 2oz jar for $5.99 which was a deal since it retails for over $8 regularly. There is a lot of product in the jar and a little does go a long way. It is a very thick crème with a velvety smooth consistency.
 


I fell in love after the first application. It has great moisturizing power with out leaving a greasy feeling at all. I typically use pure acetone to remove my polish and clean up my cuticles. The upside is it works really quickly, the downside is it dries my cuticles out. Below is my before picture showing my dry cuticles. Not a good look.

 

I then applied a small amount of the Orly cuticle therapy crème and rubbed in. You can see the difference immediately.


The only downside to the product is the "mature" smell. It smells like something that you may find on your grandma's nightstand. It is not an overwhelming smell and after a couple of uses you'll hardly notice it. I give Orly Cuticle Therapy Crème a pretty polished thumbs up. Give it a try when you get a chance.

Thanks for stopping by.

Nail Polish Deal Alert!!!

This weekend I went to visit my very good friend Lo :) who is also a fellow polish addict. Of course we had to do some polish shopping together. One of our stops was to Sally's Beauty supply. I found some awesome deals. Of my finds were the China Glaze Ombre polish sets. These sets come with four full size polishes and ten sponges. The sponges are used to blend the four colors together to achieve a gradient look. Typically China Glaze polishes cost over $6 each so you can imagine my excitement when I discovered the sets were on sale for $10 each. I picked up two of the sets, Sweet Sensations (pink set) and Wait Teal you see! (turquoise set). The swatch of #4 Make an Entrance looked more red in the picture. the color is actually more like the color in the bottle photo.

I love these sets, the nail polish colors look great together but they also look great alone. One of my favorites in the set was Turned up Turquoise. It was actually matte. 



China Glaze Ombre sets get a pretty polished thumbs up. They are a great deal on some great polish, even better when they are on sale.
 
Thanks for stopping by.
