Gelish Fall 2013 Under Her Spell and Fall Fashion Trends!

Here’s a sneak peak at Hand and Nail Harmony’s Gelish Fall Collection for 2013.

Gelish Under Her Spell

I love the Vintage Baroque vibe I’m getting from the advertisment. I’ve been curious what the fall fashion trends would be for 2013 and nail polish colors are usually a good indication of what’s to come. 🙂 I can’t wait to try out all these colors. There’s just the right combination of dark shades and lighter shades. I love the greyish tones the light pink and purple have in them. These would …

Back to school nails…sort of :)

My little boy started first grade today. Although I am happy for him to go back because he so desperately needs the social interaction I am so sad for him because he is painfully scared. It’s not unusual for him. He is afraid of everything. I knew going back to school was going to be hard so I’ve been preparing myself for a few weeks. I just wish there was some way I could instill the confidence in him that I see in so many other kids his age. He …

Scorpio Constellation Galaxy Gel Nails for Mani Monday featuring my beautiful friend Allison of Allison’s Workwear!

I am so excited about this mani! Not only are they some of my favorite nails I’ve ever done, I also got to hang out with Allison Hinson for a few hours and I have missed her so much! Here’s a cute pic of our little get together…

Isn’t she beautiful! And let me tell you, her inner beauty exceeds her outer beauty, which says a lot. Allison is quite possibly one of the kindest, sweetest, most genuine people I have ever met. And she is crazy beautiful! And an insanely …

Watch out Lincoln County!

It’s time to fill up the gas tank and pump up the George Strait cause I’m heading to the country today! 🙂 Somehow my little sister Sarah talked me and my big sister Mandy into running the Lincoln County Fair Relay tomorrow…a 30 mile relay that starts in beautiful Eagle Valley, Nevada and ends somewhere in Panaca, Nevada. We did it a few years ago with a five person team and it was major fun but I was having a really hard time getting excited for it this year for …

Romantic nails and makeup inspired by my favorite beauty blogger MaskCara!

This girl has been a huge inspiration for me…

Cara won Allure’s Beauty Blogger of the year!

I’ve done several of her makeup tutorials in the past and love the results! And her videos are super fun to watch 🙂 Here are two videos I watched to achieve my mini makeover…

Don’t judge too harshly, I’m a nail tech, not a makeup artist 🙂 And I added too much hairspray to my hair before I curled it so I ended up with tighter curls than what I was shooting for, but …

Pioneer Day Nails!

Today is the 24th of July for most of parts of the world but in Utah it’s Pioneer Day or Utah Day! I had a brief thought of how I would like to do my nails for Pioneer Day but then quickly realized my “dirt under the nails freshly mowed grass” look fit the day quite well! I’m sure the Pioneer’s who settled Utah back in the 1800’s would envy these nice clean hands! 🙂

Pioneer Day is the day the Mormon Pioneers entered the Salt Lake Valley back in …
