Shinin & Grindin

Spoiled by Wet n Wild • Jewelry Heist

I wanted to do a post on a couple of the “Spoiled” glitter polishes, but I’ve been working a lot recently, so I’ll have to do them separately.

I discovered the solution to a problem that comes up when photographing glitter polish. Natural light makes all the difference! I took this pic outside on a sunny day and it looks exactly as it does in person. It’s kind of a revelation.

Dollar Tree sells packs of nail files for a buck, and they are more than worth it. A single package includes 36 files with assorted shapes and textures. Most importantly, they are not flimsy; they hold up well to hardcore filing. It took only a few seconds to file my hard, square acrylic nails down to an oval shape. And they even fit in the plastic container that my Migi Pen set came in… perfect.

Sally Hansen • Bronze Ablaze
Sally Hansen • Jumpin’ Jade

I found these for a dollar each at Dollar Tree. They have about ten different shades from Sally Hansen’s “Insta-dri” and “Diamond Strength” collections.
