Nothing To Disclose
Vapid is an indie company that's located only about 150 miles north of where I live. That sounds like a far distance, but that's where my extended family lives and since Vapid just opened a store front, it was only fitting that when I was up seeing family, I made a stop to see all the goodness in its glory. Now I could do an entire post on just the store and the other items Vapid has to offer but for now, let's just talk about Birthday Bitch 2020.

Saving the best for last? Sure. The finale from the Morgan Taylor 2019 winter Champagne and Moonbeams collection is this black purple creme called A Kiss In The Dark. I stared this polish down hard.

Only two left in the Morgan Taylor winter 2019 Champagne and Moonbeams collection and today is an indigo pearl called A Starry Night. Now, I think this would have been super beautiful with an accent nail of Sprinkle of Twinkle but I'm rearranging my nail polishes (again? yes again), I had already put that polish up in its drawer.

Alright fam, we're getting down to the final 3 in the Morgan Taylor winter 2019 Champagne and Moonbeams collection. Now I'll be honest that I saved these three for last because typically, these aren't my favorite colors. However, I was determined to get this 12 piece swatched with my long nails, so here we go. Today is Shooting Star and while this is listed as a "chocolate pearl" (wut), I'm definitely calling it a brown metallic.

So after Morgan Taylor Copper Dream, it's only fitting I check out Gilded In Gold, a gold shimmer/metallic from the winter 2019 Champagne and Moonbeams collection.

There were two shimmers in the Morgan Taylor winter 2019 Champagne & Moonbeams collection and well, you know how I feel about shimmers. Technically, Morgan Taylor calls these metallics, not shimmers. The first is Copper Dream, a copper metallic.

Getting into the back half of the winter 2019 Morgan Taylor Champagne & Moonbeams collection and today is this beautiful dusty rose creme called From Dusk Til Dawn. This is one of my favorite types of colors for my hands no matter if I have long or short nails.

I love a good classic red. When I first saw Morgan Taylor See You In My Dreams from the winter 2019 Champagne & Moonbeams collection, I thought it was a vampy shimmer but I was happily surprised to find a more squishy vamp red! Not officially a jelly but I can't call this a creme either!

I'm still very new to the world of CBD and still don't understand all the properties, percentages, uses... When AmourCBD reached out with their Advanced Pain Relief creme, I was interested in finding out if this worked for me.

I think red glitter is in my top 5 "favorite polish" types. There's just something that really makes me happy about it. When I saw Morgan Taylor Walking On Stardust in the Winter 2019 Champagne & Moonbeams collection, I had an "ooh ahh" moment. For starters, this isn't just red glitter. It's red glitter in a red base with red flake shards. Talk about dimension!

I'm still wishing for my perfect grey creme y'all. I've been through so many greys but I'm still looking for my PERFECT one so let's see how Morgan Taylor Let There Be Moonlight from the winter 2019 Champagne & Moonbeams collection works. This was a really large collection too - with 12 polishes in a variety of colors and finishes.

Did you catch me on Instagram Live this week? I decided to spend a little bit of time painting my nails and showing the process for me to paint, photograph and edit my photos. It was fun! I haven't gone live in quite some time. My first choice was Morgan Taylor Tell Her She's Stellar, a nude creme. This is from the winter 2019 Champagne & Moonbeams collection.

It seems trivial now, but I really miss getting my nails done. I used to go every two weeks to a local salon... pedicure, then 2 weeks later for a manicure, 2 weeks later for a pedicure, etc. It was a great way to relax and I just felt better about myself. Once I got married, got a day desk job, had more kids and the salon changed around, it's been harder and harder a biweekly appointment somewhere.

How's your skin doing? This has been a good time for me to try out new products to see what makes it in my ultimate daily routine and today's brand may be new to me but isn't new on the market. For nearly 100 years, PAYOT Paris has been dedicated exclusively to skincare. The founder, Nadia Payot was not only the first female doctor of her generation but also a visionary of skincare products.

I needed some sparkle in my life today so Morgan Taylor Sprinkle Of Twinkle from the Winter 2019 Champagne & Moonbeams collection. This is a silver glitter with lots of rainbow reflective shards in different sizes and shapes inside of a clear base.
