Welcome to the first edition of Makeup Wars for the New Year! This week we are sharing our beauty and/or blogging resolutions with you. Last year I did a beauty resolution, which was to get through my backlog of shampoos and conditioners. I did well too, I believe I only purchased my L'Oreal Cleansing shampoo twice, and I stocked up on some giant bottles of DermOrganic as well. In December I went through all the shampoos and conditioners that I had in my stash that I knew I wouldn't use and gave them to my step-daughter. It was as if a weight had been lifted off my shoulders when I did that!
My beauty resolution is going to be DON'T PEAL POLISH OFF MY NAILS! It's absolutely the worst thing you can do, but I admit I do it when I am stressed out. Last night, even, I found myself peeling AMAZEBALLZ off my nails after wearing it for 7 days strait (that stuff is like iron, BTW). I was a few nails in before I even realized it was happening. When I woke up this morning I found I had significantly damaged the nail on my ring finger on my left hand. When that damage starts to go out, I know that nail is damaged and is going to break and split. Not looking forward to it!
So my official Beauty Resolution of 2014 is going to be not pealing off my polish, and if I realize I am doing it, remove my polish immediately! Since I am usually not at home when this happens (obviously I get the most stressed while actually at work) I am keeping these Josie Maran nail wipes in my purse. I picked them up on a whim at Sephora one day. Funny story, acutally. I went to Sephora because I really wanted the Boscia 500 Point Perk, but didn't want anything else, so I picked up something from the checkout to buy to qualify for the gift. Is that lame? Any who, these are not that cheap at $9.00 for 20 wipes, but it was during the VIB sale and I figured now was the time to try them. The peppermint ones smell awesome (I dislike the grapefruit ones) and the packaging is super lightweight and won't weigh my purse down. I have already used them once, they are not something I would use to remove glitter, but are great for what I need them for!
