I’m always glad when something good comes out of doing something regrettable. I did my own acrylic nails about two months ago. While I loved the look, I didn’t realize how hard the fake nails would be on my natural nails. While doing some research for acrylic nail after care, I came across this awesome product.
Fast forward six weeks later, let me introduce you to No Lift Nails Cuticle Oil. Holy flipping cow! I kept the fake ones on until my own grew out. I picked some up at Sally Beauty for $6.99 No Lift Nails Cuticle Oil The ingredients are simple: Avocado Oil, Almond Oil, Vitamin E and fragrance. It smells amazing. I put a drop on each nail before bed and massage it over my entire nail and cuticle. The bottle is one ounce.

In just six short weeks, my nails are all long and strong as heck. My nail polish has been lasting longer, hardly chipping at all.

Here is a photo of my July 4th manicure. I didn’t feel like redoing my nails, so I painted a silver line where the new growth is. My nails grew an 1/8 inch in two weeks! I started out with a wild blue color and just kept adding on. I do my nails at night, and put this on over my polish, no smudges at all! I actually filed my nails a bit here, as I wanted them to be squared off. My nails were really brittle before and would always break. I feel like I have a gel manicure because they are so strong.
I have only used a small amount after daily use for six weeks. I sometimes will put some on my hands. I literally want to gnaw on my fingers because it smells so good.

You can buy it on Amazon, but it’s $10. I actually paid less than $6.99 at Sally Beauty because I have a rewards card. It’s funny because I have been taking 5000 mg of Biotin for months and it wasn’t doing anything for my nails. This stuff is awesome!
Thanks for stopping by.
A good life is when you assume nothing, create more, need less, smile frequently, dream big, laugh continuously and realize how blessed you are for all the things you have.
Happy day after the July 4th! I’m off work today just hanging out. I visited my friend Marv earlier, now I’m just chillaxing on the couch. Having had the past five days off I visited Ulta twice. (Obsessed much? Yes).
Gravity is not being kind to my eyelids, as I watch them disappear before my eyes, literally. I’ve been looking into some possible procedures, but after doing extensive research, I’ve decided against it. I did a Botox eyelift four years ago, I liked the results, but it only lasted three months and cost $600.
I’ve never been big on liquid eyeliner on my lids, as I wear glasses and I could never get the darn line straight. I was looking through my vast eye make up collection, and came across a freebie Clinique Quickliner for Eyes Intense. I tried it and really liked it. I went to my local Ulta and got Intense Clove. I must say it really enhances my eye color, and makes my lids not quite so hooded looking. The color lasts all day, and doesn’t smudge. I just did a quickie eye make up job today, as I was only going to do volunteer work.
I got a post card in the mail from Ulta saying I could get a full size Clinique Clarifying toner with any purchase. A $14 value. Dang, winner winner, chicken dinner! I was looking for a clarifying cleanser and the salesperson said to use this instead. The salesperson was super helpful with my color selection.
Here are a few photos. Please keep in mind I’m 57, and know I will never have the eyelids of my youth without medical intervention. And I’m okay with that.
The Clinique Quickliner for Eyes Intense at Ulta is $16.50. I got Intense Clove. I used points since I’m a Ulta rewards member and only paid $7.50. Clinique Quickliner at Ulta
