When I was younger I was the total girly girl. Barbies, gloves–I even had the socks with the little frills on them. That may be a little nauseating, but it’s true! Now, I’m not all soft and pink anymore (I actually went into total tomboy mode during those awkward middle school years-weird huh?) but I do indulge in the little things.
One of my addictions is getting my nails done, especially french manicures. While not completely revolutionary, I love the way it makes my nails look clean and perfectly polished. But for this recessionista, there’s no way I’m getting that weekly mani (even if my cuticles are practically BEGGING me to!) and my hands are so shaky that any DIY attempt make my tips look like they’ve been dipped in paint.
I was in a total digital dilemma, so when I saw Nailene’s Hard & Healthy French Pen Kit I had to give it a second glance. The kit includes a neutral nail colour and a top coat, but the star of the pack is the little white pen. The pen acts as a goof-proof way to get the unattainable white line without the mess or the worry. The kit even includes little guiding stickers so you can get the look you want every time. Of course I couldn’t believe it could be that easy so I had to try it out. Guess what, It worked! My nails were frenching in no time and I haven’t looked back since. Tres magnifique!
