In honor of spring, and maybe hoping to hurry the nice weather along, I took some time out today to dress up my toenails. After a few weeks of using the Noodle and Boo Balm, my feet are in much better shape for sandal season.

Base coat is Tinseltown by Jessica (very sheer pink, no sparkles but high gloss).Blue tips are Moody Blue by China Glaze (a robin’s eye blue cream, part of their Patent Leather collection).

The flowers on my big toes are Hottest Pink by Milani (This polish is about 2 shades darker than OPI’s This Little Piggy. It’s a translucent hot pink with shimmer.) The dots in the flower centers are using the Moody Blue again.

I applied a top coat (cheapie $1 Quik Dry from the grocery) to keep everything lasting for a week or so.

Maybelline is offering free samples of their new Mineral Power liquid mineral makeup. I’ve actually heard good things about this foundation. Many women are using it as a base under their regular powder mineral makeup (just like you would use your lotion first) and achieving a more even coverage and less clumping.

The sample does say it will take 6-8 weeks to arrive.
