Day 3 Ultra Rapid Growth

Well, today is day three of my Nail Aid Ultra Rapid Growth test and I've gotta say... I see a difference! Do you? It looks and feels like I've gotten quite a bit of length in three days. I love how the product feels when I put it on as a base coat and my last Konadicure lasted every bit of the three days before it was time to remove and reapply... which is better than some nail products out there that AREN'T nail treatment products. There is one thing that I'm noticing when applying the Ultra Nail Growth as a topcoat (per package instructions), I'm noticing air bubbles. There are only a couple of them on very few nails, but they are there. It COULD be simply that I'm applying it too thickly. I've never used this product before and I might need to change up my normal application slightly. I will give that a try on my day 5 mani... I'll let you know. Honestly, I can already tell you that this product is getting some serious high fives from me with or without the bubbles (if you click on the pic to enlarge, you will see the few bubbles, but you will also see how great my nails look inspite of them). I am just LOVING the texture of the product and the feeling of "flexible strength" this product is giving me. To get this look:

  • Base coat: Nail Aid Ultra Rapid Growth
  • 2 coats of China Glaze IX (a GORGEOUS deep chocolate that is almost black)
  • 1 coat Seche Vite
  • Fauxnad image plate #F02 stamped with China Glaze GR8
  • Top coat: Nail Aid Ultra Rapid Growth
So yah, as I said, I'm definitely giving this product a high five. Not bad to achieve it in only three days! LOL! I do also want to note that I'm still using cuticle oil (my own personal recipe) daily that may or may not be assisting in the results that I'm getting, but I AM noticing growth and my nails have never looked better. I do believe my cuticles are looking better too! :) We'll see how they look at day 5.

*** I was informed that Nail Aid's Ultra Rapid Growth AND Maximum Iron Hardener ARE both available at select Walmart stores now. I guess it's just not at mine right now or maybe they are sold out... which... based on the results I'm getting, well, I can see why! :) But for any of you who might be interested, BOTH PRODUCTS are included in my blog give-away along with a ton of other goodies.

Past 7 Days....

Gorgous Leaves Bundle Revisited

Yestday's Freebie Friday on a Monday projects were so fun and this set is SO BEAUTIFUL in it's simplicity!  It reminds me of a long-retired stamp set from Stampin Up!.  I was inspired to re-create the projects that I made with it once upon a time.  So here we go.... SIMPLE projects when you need a quick "hello" or an even quicker heartfelt sympathy card: I was DEFINITELY on a Bumblebee and Cajun Craze kick yesterday!  I can't stop/won't stop!  LOL!  To be fair... I had extra leaves die cut and didn't want anything to go to waste!  A quick speckle backdrop in Bumblebee then a quick "hello" greeting from the Biggest Wish in Cajun Craze with the Cajun Craze leaf popped up on a Basic White cardbase.  PERFECTION! Okay, as with yesterday's projects, the sentiment is from the recently retired SAB Delicate Dahlia's set, but you could use ANY sympathy sentiment you have in your stash.  Unlike in the past when I had to mask off the center rectangle...

My Kind of Art

Welp, today was girl's day! I was so lucky to spend the afternoon with great friends at one of my favorite venues... a rubber stamp fair! And while this post is REALLY about the AMAZING gem that is pictured here, I do want to mention how sad I was to see the fair was about 1/8 of what it has been in past years. Gone were the ENORMOUS door prizes, in their place were coupons that were given to the lucky winners. Replacing the shoulder to shoulder vendor booths were widely spread vendor tables that didn't even fill the convention center. In past years we could barely make it through the thick crowd and today was a leisurely meander through slim pickins. I was sad to see that this event that I always looked so forward to had diminished so drastically in our struggling economy. The brighter side of this sad, sad tale is the fact that I didn't have to scratch anyone's eyes out or pull anyone's hair to get my hands on the amazing artwork that you see here. Featured here ...
