Beauty Tips for Women: Starrily – Razzle Dazzle Manicure

I had the recent luck to have won a contest hosted by the awesome beauty blogger Love for Lacquer and sponsored by Starrily.  I received two lovely polishes, one of which I’ll be showing you today.  Razzle Dazzle is a multi-colored glitter packed polish in a clear base. Nail Art Polish Beauty tips for Women 248

I started off with two coats of China Glaze Re-Fresh Mint.  Starrily recommends to “shake or roll bottle before using” and suggests to get those larger glitter pieces to “apply using a dab motion to pick out the glitters”; great advice, which I used in applying Razzle Dazzle.  I only did one coat and that was sufficient to get coverage.  Then applied  Poshe top coat to finish this simple and eye catching manicure.

This is a beautiful glitter polish that applies like a dream.  I would highly recommend it.  It adds a beautiful pop of color to any manicure.  I give Razzle Dazzle 5 brains. BRAINrate5

Buy Buy Baby Coupons And The Wiggles

In the buy buy baby coupons home we are always looking for good educational fun for our kids. One of our kid’s favorite, ages five and two, are The Wiggles. The buy buy baby coupons kids love The Wiggles. If you are not familiar with The Wiggles they are an all male singing group for children from Australia who have been around close to 20 years. All members except for the current lead singer, Sam Wiggle – yellow, are original to the group.

Buy buy baby coupons definitely recommends checking out their show, which is in reruns on The Sprout channel. Their music is educational for the kids and has a catchy beat that is adult friendly. We have several of their dvds in our home. With Christmas fast approaching I would recommend the Wiggly, Wiggy Christmas dvd. I would say that out of all their Christmas dvds this one is the best. Some other favorite dvds that are great are Wiggly Play Time, Top of the Tots, Wiggly, Wiggly World, Wiggles – Go Bananas, and Wiggles – Cold Spaghetti Western, those are few to name some. If your kids are a bit scared of puppets or gremlins I would skip the following dvds, some odd looking puppets make an appearance throughout and my kids were scared and those dvds never get played; they are Wiggles – Yummy Yummy, Hoop-Dee-Doo, Wiggles Gremlins, and Wiggles – Santa’s Rocking. The buy buy baby coupons mommy and daddy often find themselves humming the tunes when the kids are not around.

The buy buy baby coupons family had the great pleasure of attending The Wiggles Wiggly Cirus Live tour when it came to our city last year, in 2010. The best part was that I won the tickets for the whole family to attend from my local radio station. I picked up some great tips on how to win tickets from a blog called winticketstowicked.com; I know odd name but they had some pretty good info on how to win free tickets. The Wiggles show was great and the kids had a wonderful time. Anthony, Jeff, Maury, and Sam Wiggle certainly delivered.

Buy buy baby coupons recommends checking out The Wiggles website and joining their fan club. The Wiggles was touring again for The Wiggles Big Birthday – 2011. I was lucky enough to win tickets yet again and had a blast; It was nice to see all the original Wiggles, Greg, Sam, Maury, and Anthony.  My kids had a blast and it was bitter sweet since all except Anthony is retiring.  Anthony will continue with some new Wiggles which they introduced in the concert Simon – red Wiggle, Ema – yellow Wiggle, and Lucky – purple Wiggle.

Beauty Tips for Women: Matte French Manicure

I love French manicures, so when I saw the matte French manicure I had to try it.  Recently I had picked up Salon Perfect Matte Fx but hadn’t used it and thought it would be perfect to try this technique.

So I started off with two coats of Wet n Wild Ebony Hates Chris and two coats of Orly Unlawful on my ring finger.
