Hiya guys! Although Jersey was supposed to get more snow today it looks like mother nature changed her mind. Thank goodness. Even though I adore the possibility of not going into work, I hate the snow and the chaos it causes. So I think I'll stick with loving snow the only way I know how... through nail art! I didn't get to do too much snowflake art during December, but he…

Hiya guys! Today I am sharing a very special review with a brand that is near and dear to my heart, CDB Lacquer. Cheyenne was one of the first makers to give me a chance as a swatcher and blogger. She took a big leap of faith trusting her products to a complete novice and that's something I will always remember. I'm not normally this mushy, but CDB Lacquer is turning two and …

Hiya guys! How are you surviving the snow? The roads here are pretty terrible and I am dreading having to drive to home after work. I can feel the anxiety rising already, eek! Let's not think about that, instead let's indulge together in polish. You want to know what's better than polish? Polish on sale! Today I am sharing a swatch of Black Opal from My World Sparkles Lac…

Hiya guys! It's stamping mania in the Rose mani cave lately and I am loving it. Recently I received a few stamping plates from Aiyoohehe, also known as 'Héhé' for short, for reviewing purposes and even used one in an episode of Puppy Prints. Today I'll be sharing a look at some of the other plates and show you guys the manis I've created. Since I received so many …

Hiya guys! I'm currently still snowed in and enjoying my day off work. Kind of feeling stir-crazy from staying in all weekend, but I did make the most of it. I had my first swatch-a-thon of 2016 and it was a great success with almost 20 polishes swatched! Today I am sharing swatches for the Whispers Transitional 2016 Collection from Zoya. Hopefully you aren't too tired of see…

Hiya guys! Now I know what you're thinking already... Here comes Rose shoving Valentine's Day down my eye sockets. Well you are so wrong about that today! Kinda.

Hiya guys! Let me ask you a question... have I been stamping too much lately? Hmm... nah #stamper4lyfe. Haha. But on a serious note, stamping has quickly become one of my favorite techniques to do. Because of that I am constantly searching for new stamping polishes, plates, and stampers to try out. Today I have a dual-headed stamper and a teal stamping polish from Born Pretty Store t…

Hiya guys! Last week I had to miss my episode of Puppy Prints because I was really feeling under the weather. I'm still really bummed about that. However I still want to meet my number count of 12 episodes this season so at some point you will be receiving two videos at once. Not today tough, haha. I barely had enough sleep and time to get just the one. Yup, here at Manicured …

Hiya guys! I don't know about you, but for me love is in the air! Or maybe I just had way too much early heart-shaped chocolates this weekend. Spoiler alert, I totally did haha.

Hiya guys! Mainstream Monday has been a segment I have wanted to start on this blog for a really long time. In true polish addict fashion, I spend a ludicrous amount of time (and money cause let's be real I have no resistance) at Sally's Beauty Supply and Ulta. That's not the issue though. The problem lies in the fact that I never have time to swatch or post about my litt…

Hiya guys! I hope you all had a good weekend. I didn't do too badly myself, narrowly escaped another ER visit so I'm really thankful for that. Dear headaches could you kindly not right now, I'm trying to catch up on my arts! Haha. If only it were that simple. But I did manage to do my Day 4 of New & Improved Week for the Digital Dozen and it's another throwback…

Hiya guys! I love me some Valentine's Day, mostly because it also happens to be my anniversary with the hubster as well. Talk about making it easy to remember, haha. So just like I did for Halloween last year, I decided to be an enabler and put together a list of all the collections being released. The list is no particular order, but the page is divided into what's av…

Hiya guys! I'm totally a day behind on my Digital Dozen posts... Yes, already I'm behind. I know, I know. Someone needs to tell my headaches to bug off for good so I can get my stuff done. In all seriousness, this is the worst I have felt in my entire life but I am trying to hang in there as best I can. Bottom line though, I may be late but I am not giving up or stopping n…

Hiya guys! Valentine's Day is just around the corner and you know what that means... time to pressure our significant others into buying us all the cute things. Or if you're single then it means just buying yourself some stuff and pretending it's from someone else. Maybe sign a card, include a love letter of sorts. Oh Pablo? I haven't mentioned him before? Of course I…

Hiya guys! How's it going today? I don't know how it's been for you guys, but winter in Jersey has been nonexistent. Up till last week we've had weather in the 60s. Now this is the kind of winter I could get used to. Don't get me wrong, I love me some snow but Christmas is over so I'm over it haha. Luckily for those of us who are over the season Turtle Tootsie…

Hiya guys. You see the title of the post?! That's right, Puppy Prints is back for Season 2! Officially this should be more like Season 1.2, but I always hated when TV shows did that so I just went ahead with 2 instead haha.
