I swear, that's not an octopus up there. Today I have the tweexy, the original wearable nail polish holder. Wear it on two fingers and be able to polish pretty much anywhere on the go.
The tabs on the side serve a purpose. Instead of trying to jam your fingers through the "ring" holes, you squeeze the tabs to open the finger rings, put your fingers around the rings, and let go of the tabs.
Then put your bottle of polish into the opening and push down to make sure it's in there sturdy.
Now polish!
So the good thing is that you can put this on any fingers - most people will probably decide to use their middle and ring fingers like so.
But for that super unfashionable claw look, you can use your index and middle fingers.
For reference, I'm using a bottle of Milani in "Lady-Like Sheer". The opening appears large enough for just about every type of bottle I own. I do wish the space was a little deeper so the bottle sat down even further, but I didn't have any issues while using it.
I'm keeping Bonbon Pink for myself but let's have a giveaway for the Sapphire Night (shown above) and Spa Green! Open internationally to all those ages 18 and up - ends on 29 February 2016!
tweexy can be purchased through Amazon (affiliate widget is on the right hand side of the screen). Join the conversation on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube and Pinterest.

Are you a mint person? I have a love/hate with mint polishes. Sometimes I love them and sometimes I'm more on the fence. Which one am I with Milani Mint Crush?
I used a base coat of Duri Rejuvacote, 2 coats of polish and finished with Glisten & Glow H K Girl top coat. This polish was a little on the runny side and I got it all over my cuticles. I did try to clean up the best I could but I'm still see a little. No staining from the polish though, which is always good.
Okay, so let's talk about this polish. My index is a bit of a mess and probably needed one more quote to be opaque. The rest? Eh - I'm not sold on the color. It's more of a white based green mint which I'm not a huge fan of. This polish may end up in my charity box.
You can visit Milani on their website and purchase directly or buy it in stores like CVS/pharmacy or Walgreens for around $3.99. You can Like them on Facebook, follow their Twitter, follow onInstagram and subscribe to their YouTube Channel.

Happy Monday! Ready to get a little vampy? How about the Holiday 2015 "Gifted With Style" collection from Morgan Taylor? This is A Little Naughty, a red toned plum creme that is nicely office appropriate.
I used a base coat of Duri Rejuvacote, 2 coats of polish and finished with Glisten & Glow H K Girl top coat. This polish was thin-thick in that I needed to wipe the brush well so it didn't run down my brush but also it was thicker than I'm used to with Morgan Taylor. I needed to clean up quite a bit around my cuticles after applying but I didn't have any staining.
Nice and simple! I have to say, it's been weird having nubbins but it's so much easier for my job. I am on my computer a LOT more in this job and typing with nails isn't easy. I also love the way that dark cremes look on short nails, so maybe this is my chance to get through all my vampy dark colors! I sure have a lot of them.
Morgan Taylor [Website | Facebook | Twitter | Instagram | Pinterest | YouTube] is available at CosmoProf for $8.50 a bottle. Online, non-professionals can purchase Morgan Taylor at Ulta Beauty.

Happy Valentine's Day! I'm super proud of myself for actually making it through all 14 days - especially when I thought I wasn't going to make it towards the end. I also want to thank all those bloggers who participated with me! It's a lot of work to come up with 14 different polishes, nail art designs or just blog postings in general! To close this all out, I have Glam Polish POW! from the Knockout Part 1 collection.
I used a base coat of Duri Rejuvacote, 2 coats of polish and finished with Glisten & Glow H K Girl Top Coat. I really liked the brush on this polish - it's round but it's also fluffy which I like fluffy brushes when it comes to holos.
So overall, this is a pretty pink - it goes well with my skin tone and the holographic sparkles just make me feel like Barbie threw up glitter - but in a good way. The sparkles are much more pronounced than yesterday's F.U.N Lacquer but that may also be because of the lighter base (pink vs rust red). It seems rather accurate to call this POW!

Last summer, I went through this "BUY ALL THE THINGS" phase and one of my brands to try was F.U.N Lacquer, which stands for Fabulously Unique Nail Lacquer. I purchased the entire Summer 2015 collection which included Goodness Of The Dawn, a candy apple red polish with gold and red holographic glitters.
I used a base of Duri Rejuvacote, 2 coats of polish and finished with Glisten & Glow H K Girl top coat. The polish dries slightly bumpy and matte so a top coat is essential.
I'm not a huge fan of this polish despite how beautiful it is. The base red just isn't my cup of tea - it has more brown to it than I'd prefer. Also it's a scattered holographic polish so yes, glittery but only in direct sun. The linear holographic look is very hard to see.
