Splatter Paint Nails!

What you’ll need: 
  • a paper plate 
  • Tape and scissors
  • Q-tips
  • Nail polish remover
  • 1 straw, cut in half
  •  At Least 3 nail polishes colors

How To:
  1. Paint your nails an opaque white and let them dry. 
  2. Take a strip of tape and wrap it around your finger just under the cuticle. Do this to each nail, it makes clean-up easier
  3. Splatter Time! Place a couple of drops of polish onto your paper plate and dip one end of the straw into the polish. With your nail on the plate, place the straw about 2 to 3 inches from your nail and use a quick breath to blow out the polish. Repeat for all 10 nails!
  4. Next, repeat step 3 with your second, third, four... (you get the picture) nail polish color.
  5. Once you’re done splattering, remove the tape and use a Q-Tip dipped in nail polish remover to clean up the edges. 
  6. Finish with a clear top coat!

Etsy Haul: KP ( aka "chicken skin") Products

So have you ever heard of KP?   This is short for Keratosis Pilaris, and is more commonly known as "chicken skin."  They are the small, red, hard bumps they generally appear on your upper arms or thighs, but can happen just about anywhere!  It is generally an incurable genetic condition, so multiple people in a family will suffer from it at varying degrees.  Well, my family is one of those.   Now before you start a "Go Fund Me" page for this horrible medical condition, let me say, these bumps are totally and completely harmless.  The biggest hit usually comes to a person's self esteem when they wear sleeveless tops.  It is nothing to be embarrassed of, and if you are comfortable with it, then good for you!  You are more confident than I am, and I applaud you.  Because, and I'm going to be real with you here, I am pretty self conscious of it...
