Blue Fingernails

I once found a page on Pinterest which convinced me that it would be a wonderful idea to put Vaseline on the skin around my nails to stop messes.

Bad idea! Logic says that if I can't keep nail polish off of my skin then I certainly can't keep Vaseline off of my nails.  The Vaseline got everywhere and I ended up with only a small splodge of polish in the very centre of my nails - nothing else would stick! Definitely not worth a try; just in case you were wondering... :)

It's the middle of winter here, which means that my toes haven't seen light for weeks, and considering I usually wear my bright, happy nail polish on my toes, I decided to give my fingers a chance to brighten up my life. :)

Suntra colour in Blue Look 53

I adore Suntra Colour nail polishes. They have a HUGE variety of shades and shines to choose from and if I can remember correctly - they are relatively inexpensive. (This one was from Pick 'n Pay).
I do 2 coats of polish; which seems to last pretty long without any chips. Beware, it does take a few minutes to dry fully though (I've got a fingerprint on my thumb nail from trying to check if it was still wet).

I had some fun and painted a little heart with a toothpick and Suntra colour's Redical 289 on my thumb. Just blob a dot on and then shape with the toothpick . :)

Happiness in under 2 minutes (minus drying time!).
