If you're a lover of drugstore beauty, the begging of a new year is a super exciting time as brands start pushing out new releases and there are always some surprises. This year one of those exciting surprises for me was the REVLON Ultra HD Snap! nail polish line. When I saw the cardboard display at my local Shoppers Drug Mart, I couldn't resist snapping up a few of the more exciting shades and trying them out.

Yesterday was an exciting day. I'm not even American, but I tuned in to the inauguration just like, I'm sure, loads of other non-Americans who were eager to watch the US usher in a new administration. And it was lovely, it was. The ceremony of it all was beautiful and inspiring and all of that... but honestly, I spent most of the day having a moment with the coats and by mid-afternoon I just couldn't wait to get home and put some coat inspired nail art on my nails - because apparently this is just how my brain processes seeing something I love, "Must put on nails now."

With these month's non-theme theme for #CBBxManiMonday being untried polishes, it seems only fitting that one week has to feature a polish from Picture Polish - a brand that went far too long untried for me. I honestly don't know how I never picked up any of their polishes until this past month, but I finally pulled the trigger and picked up three and I know that I'll be making another order for more soon. (As in, I already have a handful in my cart ready to pull the trigger but I'm trying to make smart buying decisions by choosing shades that will be good for spring!)

Anyway, without further ado, keep reading to see how I did this mani!

I must say, I just love a sweater nail, but I generally leave them for the holiday season. Of course, there's a cozy zone that I think most of us in climates with profoundly cold winters go into as soon as the snow flies and I continue to be firmly tucked in there, so choosing a fair isle stamping image to go with a shade that elicits thoughts of the coziest cashmere to me for some reason just made sense. Recently I picked up a few new polishes from Picture Polish (finally!) and one of them was London, which is a gorgeous blue shade that just screamed cozy to me even though it's quite cool toned.

I have to admit, I picked up the Versed Day Dissolve Cleansing Balm months ago, but since 2020 completely murdered my desire to wear makeup I spent months skipping my double cleansing routine and sticking to a single cleanse. However, I'm back to using a cleansing balm to remove my makeup and SPF at the end of the day and I've finally been reaching for this enough to give a full review. I'm a HUGE fan of a cleansing balm and I tend to feel like I just must get my hands on any cleansing balm available at my local drugstore, so when Shoppers Drug Mart started carrying Versed products this was the first thing on my mind to pick up. 

Keep reading for my review!

When it comes to indie polishes, I'd like to think I exercise a good amount of restraint - by which I mean I talk myself out of ordering a lot of really, really beautiful polishes that give me serious grabby hands. However, sometimes there are polishes that just get stuck in my head and I absolutely HAVE TO HAVE THEM. When I first saw Polished For Days' Ruska, I was immediately intrigued and then a little bit confused and then downright obsessed. I tell you no lies, that really is exactly how it went. And then, once I had it in my hands, I knew that I need to get it ON my hands but I wasn't entirely sure what to do with it nail art wise. Can you tell that this polish has been a whole thing for me?

For this month, our non-theme-theme for #CBBxManiMonday is untried polishes and since this brand spankin' to me it seemed like the perfect time to feature it on the blog! Keep reading for more!

Once I was finished swatching the 6 shades of the Kokie Professional Nail Polish* that they sent over for me to share with you guys, I really wanted to put together some nail art using a few of them, and I had a few ideas that I rolled around before landing on this one that just stuck in my head. Though I've seen people do this particular sponging technique before, I'm pretty sure that I had never tried it myself - and now I find that I have been remiss because I love it so much!

I've been curious about Kokie Cosmetics for a while now, so I was SUPER stoked to hear that their nail polishes were going to finally be available here in Canada at Sally Beauty and I was definitely in when I got a chance to try out some of the shades for myself. It's always exciting to me when new formulas of nail polish, especially ones that live in the under $10 a bottle range, become available in stores locally. I only have 6 shades to share with you guys today, but there are definitely some different finishes in this bunch, and I definitely hope to share more in the future.

Happy New Year, everyone! Can you believe we've finally escaped 2020 - hopefully mostly unscathed? Admittedly, my optimism about this year being better than last is cautious at best, but it's something at least. It seems fitting that my first post of the year is a #CBBxManiMonday. We technically don't really have a theme this month, but we're all planning on using some new or untried polishes this month and... well, I've gone a little bit mad with indie polish power lately so I definitely have some beautiful polishes to share with you guys this month. If you checked out my Christmas Nails marathon last month, you might have also noticed that I'm having a bit of a love affair with sheer bases and black and white designs and that's exactly what I've got for you today!

Hey guys! It's been quite a while since I've done an Adult Toy Review, I admit, but I decided to end out the year with one for a couple of reasons. First of all - if we can wring a little bit of pleasure out of this year right at the end, I think we'll all be doing a little bit better (just me?) But mostly, I just really, really wanted to share the new LELO SILA Sonic Clitoral Massager* with you guys because it has been... incredibly impressive to me. I have to tell you - I have already been singing the praises of this toy in real life. Literally, I had a video coffee date with my best friend recently and I busted this baby out to tell her all of the reasons that think this toy is amazing and very much worth the luxury price point. 

If this seems like it might be up your alley, I highly recommend you continue reading!
