NOTD Smurf Hands...

Hello, sorry I've not posted for a few days, I'm having trouble getting good pictures with this gloomy weather (and my lack of camera skillz). I have a couple of manicures to show you coming up :)

This is a manicure I wore for a few days in the week between Christmas and New Year (doesn't it seem like months ago now?) I used a navy blue creme from 2True on all fingers except my ring, which I used Barry M Lilac Foil and then stamped a flowery Bundle Monster pattern, reversing the colours. But where is this accent finger she speaks of, I hear you cry. Well, I went into Boots before I got to take any pictures, and going into Boots means that I test out nail polish and only two fingers stayed intact... Sorry about that!

Now look at the state of my fingers after I removed it! I've used this polish before and it wasn't too bad for staining which leads me to believe that non-acetone polish remover is pants. It's drying out my skin more than acetone remover does and it stinks to high heaven. It isn't hurting my booboo though, which is a good thing because just about everything else is.

I had to walk around for a DAY with blue hands, nothing would get it off until I went swimming on new years day with the kids! Just call me Smurfette. What do you do about staining? I usually scrub with an old toothbrush and polish remover but even that wouldn't shift it.

Off to pick Ollie up from pre-school now, in the rain. Fun times!
