I disappeared.

It's been a bit rough in PolishGalore world.

Mr. PG and I found out I was pregnant which was awesome. However at the end of the month (right before my 9 week appointment), we found out that our little one stopped developing at 6 weeks 2 days. No heartbeat ever formed. I had a D&C the next morning.

I'm also preparing for Cosmoprof North America 2014 again this year. If you are a blogger or an indie brand that is looking to join, there is a Facebook Group already in full swing. I'm not in charge of the group, but definitely a member.

I have a slew of new polishes to share both mainstream and indie. I've tried to only buy what interests me and I'm slowly starting to purge polishes I bought and didn't care for. And hopefully by the end of the summer, I will have my own Mani Cave ala work/play/polish.

We are also in the process of replacing our front doors and all the windows in the house so my spare time gets smaller and smaller each weekend. Unless I can start photographing polish at work (don't tempt me), my blogging has been pushed back into hobby status for sure.

And tomorrow is another day.

Zoya Magical Pixie

Talk to me about texture. Are you so into it or so over it? I'm half and half. I can't stop playing with it when I wear it, but man it can be a pain to put on and take off.

Zoya is adding to their line of holographic "PixieDust" texture polishes this summer with three sweet hues - perfect for summer weddings!  Please enjoy the following - all images courtesy of Zoya.
