Hi everyone,
Perhaps you've noticed another
prolonged absence of mine? It's hard for me to even write this...but I
know I have so many posts I owe..ones that I've already swatched and
photo'd months ago even, and many beauties waiting patiently. It is with
heavy heart that I say I've been going through a tremendous amount of
turmoil on the home front. I'm now in the middle of selling our much
adored home (yes, the one we bought and I moved across the country for
only a short year ago!). Prepping a house for sale and a move takes so
much energy! Add to that the reasons why and it's a recipe for
heartache. As soon as it sells I'll be heading back East to NY so that
at least is a positive, though I hate change, and I truly came to like
it out here in the PNW and wished with all my might to give my kids more
stability than how it's all unfolding.
I hope you
will all stick with me. I have a bunch I need to post as soon as I can
eek out the time...and plan to jump right back into blogging once I'm
settled on the East coast again.
Much love to you all.
Heartfelt thanks to all who have been there for me online and in person
through this chapter in my life. If there is one thing I've
learned..it's that you never know the struggles behind someone's smile
(or frown, or just generally distracted face ha)..and to give kindness
whenever possible. It is always possible.
Love, Victoria

PiCture pOlish Nail Art Quarterly #1 - Flower Power Freehand Flower Nail Art
Press sample
Hello and happy Monday! I'm excited to be sharing my creation for piCture pOlish's new Nail Art Quarterly. piCture pOlish has always been a brand that encourages and supports not just the blogging community but the nail art component and I am grateful for that. I have discovered many amazing talented ladies through piCture pOlish!
SO the theme given to us participating this time was "Flower Power" and the catch...it must use no more than 3 PP shades (no other brands/shades but white or black allowed for accent) AND it must be freehand! Well that is a challenge! Take a look what I created!

OPI Color Paints Nail Art
Press sample
Hi!
Hope you are enjoying your weekend! I've been a busy one for sure!
Getting ready and packing for an epic trip to NYC! My boys and I arrived
in New York this week and will be spending the rest of the summer here!
THAT'S A LOT OF PACKING. I've also swatched up a storm so I have good
stuff to post while I'm here, hopefully I'll find the time to get it all
up :D
Here's a quick look at the design I created using the fab OPI Color Paints!As you may have seen these 8 shades are sold with a silver chrome "base" shade that really make them pop! Check out http://opi.com/colorpaints to see their how to videos and all about the shades!
I used all the shades here over the silver base, and these are really super easy to use and work with. They aren't sticky or thick the way the OPI Sheer Tints were. I really had no plan for this manicure except to show off how easy they are to use and how the colors combine to create an artsy mani!
What do you think? Do you have some (all) of these already?
OPI Color Paints are available at ULTA, ULTA.com, and select professional salons.
All the best,
Victoria

Poise Thin Shape Pads - Free Sample - So You Can Recycle Your Period Pad - Nail Art
Sponsored
Hello! Once again, I've been asked to bring awareness to an issue many women will face in their lifetime. Unfortunately my experience with LBL (light bladder leakage)
is a sad one, as contrasted with LBL due to a happy occasion like
pregnancy or childbirth. My mom became sick some 15 yrs ago and required
extended hospitalizations. She never really recovered from it and
needed products
to deal with LBL. At that time we used what we thought would work best:
sanitary pads! Of course now we know there's a better product for the
job! I'm happy to be able to offer you a free sample of Poise Thin-Shape Pads!
This time my #RecycleYourPeriodPad was to use them to try out a new nail art technique!
I created this look with the 7 shades of the Color Club Poptastic Pastel Neon collection and an old period pad!
The purple around the nail is latex body paint I got from amazon and put into empty nail polish bottle. It works to protect the skin during messy manicures and peels right off (In case you didn't know about this awesome nail art trick yet!) After I painted my base color, I simply painted a shade at a time onto the pad being recycled and dabbed it onto dry nail.
Perhaps I should have used a different set of contrasting colors, but I do like the way this turned out. The pad pattern gave it a nice snakeskin effect that is hard to see from the photos.
A cool spring or summer look and really easy to make! Now...here's what you should be using for LBL!

A cool spring or summer look and really easy to make! Now...here's what you should be using for LBL!
Designed to move with your body, new Poise Thin-Shape pads feature Super Absorbent Material (SAM) and a Thin-Flex design for extraordinary protection that’s still 3x drier than period pads† to help you take care of leaks with confidence.
WHAT IS LBL?
•One in three women experience Light Bladder Leakage (LBL) – little leaks that can be triggered by everyday occurrences like coughing, sneezing, laughing and exercise.
• Weak pelvic floor muscles, pregnancy, childbirth and weight gain are just a few LBL contributors.
WHAT CAUSES LBL?
Just as no two women are alike, there's no single reason that LBL happens. Some of the most common things that lead to uninvited leaks include:
• Physical changes from childbirth, pregnancy, hysterectomy or menopause
• Being overweight
• Complications from surgery, stroke, or chronic diseases like diabetes, multiple sclerosis (MS) or Parkinson's disease
• Bladder or urinary tract infections
• Bladder irritants (certain foods and beverages)
HOW CAN I BEST MANAGE MY LBL?
Women deserve the best options for managing LBL. Whether you leak a little when you laugh, or sometimes have a sudden urge to go, Poise gives you one less thing to worry about any time of day or night. Our pads and liners are specifically designed for LBL, which makes them an easy choice for the 1 in 3 women with light bladder leaks.
FIND YOUR PERFECT PRODUCT
Stay fresh and confident with Poise® pads and liners. They're designed specifically for Light Bladder Leakage (LBL), which make them an easy choice for the 1 in 3 women who experiences LBL.
POISE THIN SHAPE PADS
Designed to move with your body, new Poise Thin-Shape pads feature Super Absorbent Material (SAM) and a Thin-Flex design for extraordinary protection that’s still 3x drier than period pads to help you take care of leaks with confidence.
