Cloud 9 Nails

Before I became a mommy, I used to get my nails done all the time. Acrylic nails were a part of my bi-weekly ritual. For the first couple days after getting my nails done, I would find myself staring at them. Stuck in traffic? Look at my pretty nail polish. Talking on the phone? Stare at the sparkle of my colored nails. I thought there would never come a time where I would stop getting my nails done... or at the very least, having them painted!

When I got pregnant, the trips to the nail salon were one of the first unnecessary expenses to go.

When I had my daughter, painting my nails went by the wayside. Didn't have the time to sit and wait for my nails to dry while my baby cried or crawled or toddled around or flung baby food at the cat.

Now that my little girl is three, we can paint our nails together. Unfortunately, every nailpolish that I could afford and find easily would begin to chip within the day. Even my favorite OPI colors!

I let kiddo pick out a color for us to paint our nails when we went to Target recently. Sinful Colors had many different colors to choose from and was pretty cheap at $2.49 compared to OPI and Sally Hansen. She picked out this shimmery orange-peel color named Cloud 9.

We painted her toes and my fingernails with this summery, orange-ade color. Color goes on sheer so to get a deeper color just keep adding layers. Dry time was about the same as most nailpolishes.

The result: sunshine on our nails! I have to admit, I have been staring at my finger nails again.

Five days later, the polish is beginning to chip. Just around the tips, nothing major. For a cheap, long-lasting, at-home manicure, I would absolutely recommend Sinful Colors. We've already been scouting out our next nail polish color, which is looking like it will be 'Beautiful Girl'.

Gotta love those pink colors!
