SHELLAC, NO NEED

i'm a girl who wants instant satisfaction thus i have a strong hate toward waiting around for 15 minutes after painting my nails waiting to touch anything until they dry.  i was reeled in to this product by the 'insta' and took the bait when i saw the price tag, under $5.  it really does dry instantly (hints the name), as long as your definition of instant is under 45 seconds.  it can stay looking fresh for up to a week and a number of people have mistaken my current color, petal pusher, for being shellac, the new nail craze which costs around $30.
do it, check out sally hansen's insta-dry....perfect for us girls on the go.

TO BLOG OR NOT TO BLOG

for the past two years I have been juggling the idea of creating my own blog.  after much deliberation surrounding time, material and ability to be consistent, I have finally made the leap and am officially committing.  i will use this platform as; an inspiration board to get some of my thoughts and visions in the flesh, internet flesh, that is, share my bargain-finding techniques and diy fails and successes.  you will also find copious amounts of food porn and dog related finds as these are two of my obsessions.  in the end, i hope by sharing the things which make me smile will act as a 'pay it forward' technique and you to will find something each day that will cause you to show your pearly whites.  welcome to my wild world of sarcasm, fashion and paw prints, enjoy.
