A couple of years ago, when I was first getting into nail art, I tried out some rose quartz nails that were... not great. As simple as the look is, I do feel like it takes a light touch and just the right polishes to actually pull off.

Happy New Year, everyone! I know I've been a little bit quiet over the holidays, but I decided to unplug a little, curl up comfy and try to unwind a little bit from the stress and madness of the holiday season. I've also been dipping my toes into some nail experimenting and I'm pretty excited to share the results. For January, our #CBBxManiMonday theme is all about experimenting and trying new things for the new year, and it was pretty perfect timing for me. After a couple of pretty disastrous nail breaks just before Christmas, it was sort of a perfect excuse for me to finally try out polygel extensions, which Youtube managed to convince me was easy enough even for me to do. So far... results have been mixed!

It was after a few rabbit holes into videos from LongHairPrettyNails on Youtube that convinced me to try out Polygel and since she liked the Gershion Poly Nail Gel Kit from Amazon - and it was available here in Canada - that's what I picked up. I decided to try out the dual forms that came with the kit because they looked really easy and were actually the thing that convinced me that I was capable of applying enhancements to my own nails.
