How to Get the Awful Yellow Color off of Your Nails

I know this has happened to you because it unfortunately happens to me all of the time: you decide to paint your nails some fun and funky color (this even happens sometimes with bright colors like red and pink) and when it's time to take off the nail polish, you see that your natural nails are yellow. It looks disgusting and I am always so self-conscious about it.

To get rid of this, mix a few drops of fresh lemon juice with 1/4 cup hydrogen peroxide (which can be found at any drugstore for cheap). Soak your nails in this solution and use a couple of cotton balls to scrub the nails gently until the nails are back to their original hue.

And remember for next time, apply two layers of a base coat before adding the color nail polish--it should save your nails in the future!

How to Marble Nails

Giving nails the "marble effect" is a hot trend in the beauty world. I found a great post on Pinterest (where else?!) and had to share! I tried it out and loved it. I have tried it now with so many different colors that people are started to ask me to do theirs for them!

First paint your nail all over with a light, shimmery color. I use an off-white, cream-colored, or light pink shade and do a base coat before putting it on. Put a GOOD amount of lotion around the nail on the finger. This will help the nail polish to stay on the nail! Fill a bowl with water and have two bottles of nail polish open and ready. Add a drop of the first nail polish to the middle of the water in the bowl. Then add the second color immediately after. Keep repeating the process until you get a nice design going in the water bowl. Use a toothpick, needle, or pin and swirl the polish around until the design looks like you want it to look on your nail.

Soak a q tip in nail polish remover and rub the excess off of your hand. Let it dry and do the other nails after!

Beautiful Long Prom Dresses

When I was in high school, prom was always the highlight of my year. It's so much fun getting prepared for the big day! I loved going shopping for my dress, picking out the perfect pair of shoes, finding the perfect flowers to match my dress, getting fun make-up for a night out, getting pampered by getting my nails and toenails painted and of course finding the perfect prom up-do. Prom only lasts one days but the memories and the pictures last forever. 

This upcoming school year, long prom dresses are in. They are elegant and unique. You can never go wrong with a long prom dress. I found a great selection of fashionable long prom dresses. These dresses are great for any body type and can also be worn for a variety of occasions. The beautiful dresses from Pacific Plex are great for prom as well as homecoming, weddings, and more!
