Manicure Monday: Zoya

Monday greetings my pretties. I hope y'all are having a lovely Monday because it is one fine, new day and I am grateful to be healthy and alive. Thanksgiving will be 10 days away, don't just wait until then to be grateful and give thanks. It should be done year round, all the time, for the big, small and not so little things. Around this time, every year for the last 3 or 4 years, I would donate food, canned goods and/or clothing and would make time to volunteer. I know it's not much, but it makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside. The Holiday Season is to spread warm love and joyous cheers, and I try to do exactly that.

Any who, today's post was originally supposed to be a tutorial on How To Winterize Your Nails but something came up midday and I was unable to finish it so as a back up, today's post is of my manicure for this week. I doubt that the tutorial will be able to go up next week as well because I will be doing special Thanksgiving manicure. I'm guessing that the tutorial will go up in about two weeks. I apologize to those who were looking forward to it. 

Zoya Professional Lacquer in Julie & Neve

Sally Hansen Diamond Strength Diamond Shine Base & Top Coat

Julie is the lavender shade and Neve being the deep, dark blue. Both shades took two thick coat to come out evenly and streakless. The waiting time to dry is approx. 20 minutes, but even so, do be care not to touch it or it might dent or be messed up. 

I did use a base coat to protect my nails but I did not use a top coat. I hardly ever do wear a top coat, not unless I know that I need my manicure protected until the end of the week or else I just allow the nail color to fend on its own.

Again, I'd like to apologize for the confusion and delay. But please try to understand that in life, unexpected things occur that I cannot control. I'd like to thank you for your understanding. Like I said, the tutorial will go up in about two weeks. I want to do it to the best of my ability and not just BS it, because you guys deserve the best.

Although here are the steps I have created earlier. I am not 100% satisfied with the way it came out so I will redo them but just so you can get the gist of it.

Y'all enjoy the rest of your night now. Thank you for visiting and thanks for reading, Please come back soon. :)
