So I won a fantastic prize from Alter Ego Nail Enamel   a couple weeks ago. I got three polishes from her shop including Olympic Medal. This polish arrived with such great timing since the Olympics were happening. So, now that my regular TV schedule is back I am happy to show you this polish. I am hoping the get the other two that I won, Air Transport Auxiliary Pilot and Salmon Smoker, on shortly to share with you. I have never tried a polish from this shop before so I am kind of excited. Usually I don't like this kind of micro glitter, but I have changed up my base coat routine that it made me love it. How? Well..... The combination that I am using makes NOTHING stick to my nails. It's partly annoying and partly funny. I have had this problem before with some other base coat combos and it makes me angry when I am at work and an entire nail of polish slides right off.

Nail Art for Nubs

So this week is my ode to the USA in the Olympics. I haven't done an Olympics design this entire time and I decided I wanted to save it for last. I recently won a giveaway where I got 3 polishes from Alter Ego Lacquer. One of them being a mix of bronze, silver and gold glitters. It is really really nice. At first, I thought that it was going to dry matte, but it glitzed out. The best part that the name of this polish is Olympic Winner. PERFECT!! Right? I also did a design for 4th of July that I attempted to do a sugar spun design. Well, I attempted again. It is a little abstract, but you can see I did the colors and designish of the flag. See.... Well, I tried! I really enjoyed the winter olympics this year. The best part for me was all the skiing events. It's super cool to also be able to show my kids all the cool sports that are out there and plus another part of the world. Yes,  I know it's via the TV, but it's still neat I enjoyed watching my son watch...
