imPRESS Press - On Manicure Review


Hey guys!! So I found these when I was looking around the beauty section of Walmart and thought they looked really pretty and like  a cool idea because I've been keeping my nails painted so much since my engagement (it just looks nicer with the ring, ok lol).

I put these on Friday night,  now this review is coming from a girl who's never worn fake nails and keeps her nails as short as possible so bear that in mind,  I immediately hated the feeling. I decided to give them a chance though,  because they did look soo pretty.

They are very non functional, like I had trouble picking things up, opening things like soda. Basic task really. It did get easier by a little bit as I got used to them but it was still very irritating and everytime I tried to do things I could feel the adhesive pulling and/or them pressing into my skin.

They managed to stay on all through Saturday and Sunday morning, then when I was attempting to open a box of Little Debbies one finally came off (I can't say I was too sad to be honest because that meant I got to pull the rest off). 

The only really I WAS disappointed with this was because they say not to leave then on over 7 days so I expected they'd stay on longer. 

With all that said,  I think these are a GREAT idea for a party or other event if you need a relatively quick and cheap manicure. However for everyday use they are extremely impractical if you plan to use your hands to do just about anything.

What you should know about dating a gamer

Hey guys!! I wanted to do a slightly different kind of post today, my boyfriend is a gamer and so I thought it could be fun to do a post on what you should know about dating a gamer, and the best part? This list is gamer approved. :) lol 1. Gamers will game... alot. If you are going to date a gamer you have to understand this, gaming is part of what he loves doing, especially if he's hardcore gamer, so don't be one of those girlfriends who's constantly trying to make him stop playing, gamers don't like that at all. You shouldn't try and change him, but accept who he is, or other option find a guy who isn't a gamer. lol 2. Sometimes,  it will take an eternity to get a text back,  or he forgets. You'll get used to it. There are just some games where you can't pause them or they are just too difficult for him to text you back quickly. If he likes this game: that can be especially true. And trust me I've played it, he

Getting my Belly Button Pierced

(Photo by Grace, Southern Grace Photography) So I did something super exciting and scary recently. I got my belly pierced!! I researched and found a awesome tattoo shop called Golden Spiral Tattoo, I totally recommend them btw. I went with my fiance and we told them what we were there for and I gave them my ID and signed the papers after the piercing artist did a short 'consultation' which was basically just looking at and feeling my belly button area. She told me because I bend right at my belly button when I sit and stuff I would need to be sure to sit up straight, but it looked good and she could do it. We went back with her to a little room and she cleaned around my belly button and marked where to pierce with her maker and measured the area. She had a few different belly rods I guess? laying out for me to choose from so I chose a small diamond looking one (pictured obviously lol) and she sanitized it. She had me lay on the table and adjust

Loreal True Match Foundation Review

I've had this for a few months now so I decided it was time to do a review. I have the color Alabaster which is a cool shade. It actually matches my skin tone perfectly so that's a really big plus. This lasts all day long, but on me it doesn't really help all that much with my skin getting oily/shiny looking. I actually think this might make my skin look MORE shiny because it has a bit of a dewy finish (which is great if your skin isn't already oily). That being said I do like this, but I'm not sure I'll repurchase it because of the shine factor but I think if you have normal or dry skin then this would be something good to try and they have plenty of shades so it's a good chance you'll be able to find your skin tone.
