Pearl - Katy Perry

Hello! Today we have a guest post from Jackie. She contacted us and we were very excited to work with her. Jackie does outreach for the Mesothelioma Cancer Alliance (a leading web resource for mesothelioma cancer).

Lasting Beauty: Small Actions Big Impacts
By: Jackie Clark

For centuries women have known the positive association to looking good and feeling good and this holds true for any woman in any circumstance and in any culture. From a local farmer in rural Africa, to a heart surgeon in a developed country, the smallest effort to look beautiful not only enhances inner beauty but also reflects a spirit of hope and self worth. Beauty is a language across boundaries and can be especially significant for those who are depressed, grieving, or suffering from a chronic disease, for example, a patient with a diagnosis of a cancer with a less positive prognosis like mesothelioma. Two especially quick and relatively effortless beauty rituals include applying eye shadow and nail polish. Not only do these two small actions make a difference, but also they have other benefits for women both young and old.

Dragon - Tori Amos

Hey guys! Summer, here. 

We recently were contacted about working with a company to post about the year of the dragon, which is part of the chinese astrological calendar. I didn't really know much about it so I decided to check it out and see what it was all about and turns out...it's my sign!

I started reading up about it and found out that it's going to be a good year for me! It determined (by the year I was born) that I am an earth dragon and because this is the year of the black water dragon - I will be receiving some money this year! Haha! I'm not going to question it...just embrace it!

Anyway, Alexis and I decided to do a joint post because the colors were really beautiful. 

We received a few samples to complete the manicure. We used Pure Ice nail polish with a Pure Ice crackle over top. You can purchase these polishes at your local Wal-Mart or Walgreens for around $2.00. You can not beat that. SERIOUSLY. Go get some. 

*I saw on their Facebook page that they have a few other sets, much like this one. Including one with a sapphire polish!! (Our birthstone. Yes, both of ours!) Also a set with a TO-DIE-FOR glitter and black patent leather-esque crackle. 

Are you convinced that you need this in your life yet? Good.


 The set I received even included the cutest little nail file. Love.
