#wonderfulwednesday a few nail reviews


Yes! Yes!!  It is that time!!!!  Wonderful Wednesday!!!  Only thing is.......Most the issues I'm gonna talk about aren't very wonderful at all!!!! I hate negative blogs, but, if it saves you on wasting money and time on anything!!  I gotta just do it!  Just let y'all know! Id hope for the same thing from y'all!!  I know us moms, or in my case, Mimis'  Have NO TIME that can be wasted!!  Right??!!


I do wanna start with a little positive/ cuteness!!!  Here is the not so wonderful first, the weather here in Ga right now is CRAZY!!  Yall hear me??  Crazy!!  Like, freezing!!  Yesterday was cold, but not to bad.  We took a walk together!!  Had to just get out of the house a min!!  Cabin Fever maybe??  Anyhow, I caught this really cute picture yesterday.  Its my grandson chasing my son!!  I swear my grandson ran the whole walk!! lol

 

Yes, I did get to rock my cute heart sunglasses too!!  I think the sun peeked for maybe......10 mins!  I have decided I am hibernating until spring now!!  The temps right now are cold and its only gonna get colder!  NOOOOO, i need a safe word!!!!! PINEAPPLES!!!!

I also have to ask, why does time seem to go faster the older you get???  Last year at this time, my grandson was this adorable hunk of bald headed fat......


Now he is this independent, potty going, runs everything, BIG BOY!!!!!  Please!! Slow down time!


* I am super excited about this table he is sitting at!!  My g ma, who passed back in Sept., This was her table!!  I ate at this table when I was my grandsons age!!  That's 37 years this table has been in my family!!  I am so thankful I was given the opportunity to have this in my home.*

now to what my blog is really gonna  be about

As y'all now, from my previous post (here)  I am super excited that I finally got me some Jamberry nail wraps ordered!!  I got to try them about a month ago! Fell in absolute love!!!! <3  Last month I wasn't able to budget in an order so, I did the alternative!!  (plus I was wanting to test out the competition!!!!!)

The first thing I tried was the Sally Hansen  Polish strips!!


Super cute design, was really Loving the gold  snake skin look!!   Anyhow, My grandson opened the box so, when I tried to use them.....they didn't even stick to my nails!!  UGH!!  How Annoying!!!  I was so excited to try it and didn't even get to wear them!! BOO!!  I don't know if it had something to do with them being opened or what??

Next, I found a few different brands and designs on sale that I thought Id try...


ok, the second edge one was the first I tried......


super funky and super cute!!  They were easy to apply, and believe it or not......they lasted a whole 3 days!!!!!!!!  not to bad for 2.50 lol, but, I do wish they had a smaller size on this sheet!  If you look at my pinky nail, it is a little large around my nail bed!

The next set were super cute!!!!!


I did these for date night!!  Same way to apply as the rest!!  These had a few more sizes to choose from! yay!!  As soon as I went to leave, they were already peeling off!!!! BOO! By the time I got home.....


The next ones I tried I was hoping they were transparent.  I really was wanting to put them over this pretty orchid color I had bought!


See??  SOOO cute!!  Since I couldn't use them over the color, I used my orchid as accent nails!  They turned out really cute! And they even matched my laptop!!  They were easy to apply, but, if you look at my pointer finger in the picture above, it didn't apply as clean as the others!  I went to bed and woke up this morning just to find this......

 

(sorry for the funky lines! My new case on my iPhone is messing with the flash!) Anyhow, two had fallen off in my sleep and my thumb nail was almost peeled completely off too!!  That really sucks because I really loved the lace design on these strips!!!!!!!  All in all,


So, I do believe I will continue to use Jamberry wraps!!  Once I receive my full sheets, Ill do a day by day picture to show how well they hold up!!!!  KK???

Hope Your #wonderfulwednesday was a blessed one!!!!

MUAHS!!!

nails for today!!!

Well, today I found this matte top coat while at WalMart. I went ahead and picked it up cause I've really been wanting to get used to the matte look. It just doesn't look right to me??? And, my nails were looking really really horrible 😒
I have been having the worse trouble getting my nails to grow out. They start growing then one day I look down and they are all broke!! I really want the stiletto nails!! By George..... One day I will get there!
See?? They are getting there!! And taking shape 👌
I have this beautiful dark purple that almost looks black. (I'll list the colors and brands later.)
I did my toes first.
I didn't use the matte on my toes. But I decided to add a sea green set of dots and a light gray set of dots to the big toes.
I really like the way my nails turned out.
I did the matte from the base of my nail up about 3/4 of the way up. Then I added the green and gray does. I love how they turned out!
My daughter also wanted me to do her toes....
What's your current manicure 💅?

dude, 2nd time......

Trying to post my Halloween blog!! Ugh, I have a windows phone, so, if anyone can suggest an app to use with my blogging that don't screw up, comment.... Let me know please....

Anyyyhooooooo....... Ok. For Halloween, I found the makeup I wanted to do...... It's really bad A..
Pretty cool huh?? Yea, I've had this look in my head for a couple of weeks now.... So, I got up early to head out for contacts. I went to the store where I have bought em before and they don't sell em any more 😒 I swear I went to at least five different places until I finally was told no one sells em anymore!!!! What!!?? This look will NOT work without the black contacts!! So, guess what.....yup, my anxiety shot through the roof. I really just wanted to cry. I had no clue what to do.... So, I headed to WalMart. Found a cool wig I liked and just went with it. Thanks to all the adults who like to open all the costumes, leggings, accessories, ECT to look at em and just throw things down BTW!!! I found a few things kinda in the same color scheme and since it had been open.... Got em for 50% off!! What!!? I LOVE a deal!! This is the first idea I did
It was pretty cool, but... It didn't look right unless I held my chin up.... That was a no bueno..... So, after scrubbing my neck forever, I came up with this
What!?? Much better......i needed to bring the bottom of the mouth further down my chest! I actually LOVED it, and, to me it looked better then my first idea!!
Mother and son...... Pretty cool, huh? Insane clown family!
Then we took these kids trick or treating
They had so much fun.... They even beat each other up with their candy bags!
We had a blast with our family and friends! Came home early cause I knew it would take forever to get my makeup off!!
And, as you can tell by looking at my crazy eyebrows, it didn't all come off 😒 how was y'all's Halloween 👻?? Tell me about your kiddos costumes, big kiddos too!!
Muahs👄
