Chateau-ganique

Hi there!

Today I want to show you another color from Ellison's Organics. In my last post I forgot to mention that Ellison's Organics is an organic, handmade, and vegan brand. She offers many super neat things, besides nail polish! Make sure to check her store out!

 The color I want to show you is called Chateau-ganique. I didn't know how it was going to look on me. I honestly do not have a lot of brown nail polishes so I wasn't really sure what to expect. But this is such a gooooooorgeous rich deep brown it couldn't look bad on anyone I don't think! When I wore it I felt like I should be a lawyer. This color would be really good for lawyers. It really means business!

 This polish applied so nice, smooth and evenly. It was not super light with the first coat, so two coats is great for this one!

Here it is with two coats no top coat.

 It is so shiny without the top coat, but check it out with the top coat- oh man!

Here it is with two coats and a top coat!

 This color is just so gorgeous, so professional, and elegant! I really can't wait to wear it again! You can check out Ellison's Organics on Facebook, and Etsy. Her polishes start at $9.50 and she has tons of other organic items!

Thank you for reading! I hope you enjoy!

Medicate

Hi there!

I can't believe it is almost Easter! Holy cow, this year is just flying by! It is crazy that Easter and 4/20 are on the same day this year.

I figured that since it is almost 4/20- I would review the rest of my Mentality 4/20 collection! I did a review on Educate some time ago, you can check that post out, here. Mentality actually has a few more colors, known as the Temperate Collection, and both sets are on sale for $5 until 4/20! Woooo!

The color I want to show you today is called Medicate. I love love love this color and the name. Medical Marijuana has helped me, and so many people I know be able to live a healthy and mostly normal life.

Medicate is a super gorgeous, deep dark green holographic polish. It is so pretty. The application of this polish was great, it applied so smooth and even. It could be worn with just one coat, but I always try to go with at least two!

Here is Medicate with two coats no top coat.

 So pretty. It is not a plain gloss finish, its like almost gloss and matte in one. Very cool!

Here it is with two coats and a top coat.

My camera really didn't like taking pictures of it with the top coat!  

 I like really love this color! You can check Mentality out on Facebook and on Big Cartel. Their polishes start at $6 each ( except the 4/20's are 5! ), and they offer free domestic shipping! 

Thank you for reading! I hope you enjoy!

My dog Fiona

Hi there :)

I have a nail post for you but, I'd really like you to meet my dog!! Her name is Fiona and I love her SO much! About 2 1/2 years ago Hubby and I wanted to start a family but we weren't in a place to be able to and we weren't ready.. We still aren't.. He said to me he would like a dog.. Growing up my family always had cats and even since Toby and I have been married- we have 5 rescue fat cats. I never really wanted a dog (even when I told my facebook friends that I got a dog, they couldn’t believe that I had gotten a dog!) But I thought about it a little and I decided that maybe a dog would be ok, but it would have to be a rescue.. So he looked, we went to a few shelters and then he found Fortunate Lab Rescue a shelter that saves dogs from being used in test experiments…  When Toby told me about this place I said “There is still testing on animals?” Surprisingly there are a lot of companies that still do.. I thought for sure with all the technology and stuff that we have now-a-days that was for sure a thing of the past…

 He pulled some dogs up to look and we found Bella (Now Fiona). She is a German Shepherd and she is a big fat baby :D. When we went to the place to actually look at the dogs we looked at a few and one of them was SO obnoxious and the other one peed right there on the floor in front of me…. If I had a bigger home with a yard, I would have adopted all those babies but we decided to adopt Fiona for now. Adjusting to a dog was weird, and a lot of times at first I would forget we even had her! I have grown to love her so so much, I can't imagine my life without a dog and she has changed something in me. I’ve always been compassionate and especially toward animals but when we got her I feel like I really realized my passion and purpose in life- to help animals. I love animals- more than most humans… I would love to have another dog!! Toby and I have decided when we move we will buy a large house with a large yard so that we can have more… I don’t even know if there is another dog in this world that is as good as Fiona but I'm willing to find out. For a first dog, I could not have asked for a better dog! That is a lot to live up to lolol. When I look at her, I just cannot believe that someone would want to test on or hurt her or that someone could test on or hurt any animal.. For me it was easy to make the choice to become cruelty free. In my home we don’t buy products that have been tested on animals.. A lot of times the things are the same price as a non cruelty free product, I just have to take a little longer to do the research to find out if the Company is cruelty free or not. You can order a free guide from peta, here.  I’m still waiting for mines, I ordered it about 2 months ago, maybe a little less but it is estimated 10 weeks to get so I will wait- that is what smart phones have google for! A word to companies that don't test- GO YOU! PLEASE know that you are amazing and if you are a cruelty free product show that shit off! Paste it on every product!

Thank you for reading about my dog Fiona. I will post my nail post in a little bit!
