Sally Hansen: INSTA-DRI




I absolutely love this line from Sally Hansen! The colors are vibrant and the texture is nice and rich. They have an OPI quality with just half the price. And they dry beautifully with great coverage after just 2 coats.  The colors I have displayed above are: 10 Lightning, 420 Lucky Lilac, and 470 Speedy Sunburst. I almost can't tell the difference between Lucky Lilac and my OPI Lucky Lucky Lavender!  I definitely recommend these.

MY RATING: ★★★★★ - 5 out of 5 stars

Rimmel: Lasting Finish Pro





Quite frankly: I HATE THIS NAIL POLISH. The color that shines so beautifully threw the bottle DOES NOT transfer to your nails. And it has a watery texture. I don't know if its just this color or if they all are like this, but I'm so disappointed with this polish that I'm not willing to buy another bottle to try it out. So 310 Sunset Orange will be taking a field trip to Kaiserslautern Waste Management.

MY RATING: ★☆☆☆☆ - 1 out of 5 stars

"We go where you are.."

Today I got my first postpartum manicure and boy, did it feel great! I elected to keep my nails at their natural length, so no tips were added; just an acrylic overlay and some polish. I got a vibrant orange from OPI called "In my back pocket" as a base with the OPI Black Shatter on 2 nails on each hand. I absolutely love it! The bright color is definitely me:







Everyone loves my son, to include my nail technician Naomi! She spoils him so much.

After getting my nails done, Jeremy and I headed on-post to watch the "US ARMY Soldier Show". I expected it to be more of a high school talent show but boy did I get the surprise of a lifetime. All the performers are soldiers from different duty stations worldwide that work together to put on an amazing concert-like experience. Flash photography was forbidden, but I did manage to sneak a shot for you guys! Performances ranged from Bruno Mars & B.O.B to Lady Gaga. They left no genre of music unturned, from country to merengue. It was truly a great show! Jeremy and I sat up front with Command Sergeant Major Fahie and his family so we had the best seat in the house!






Jeremy wore his RL Polo sneakers today!
