KISS Gel Fantasy Nail Review


Haven't done a nail review for awhile

Today I'll talk about KISS gel FANTASY ultra smooth finish

I generally go for the French Manicure as I prefer the stark contrast between either the beige or pinkish tone against the white.  I also prefer the straight edge to the curved edge

I've been noticing the trend lately for really out of this world designs and BAM in your face colors. Some frankly too much for me in particular, however, I am warming up to some less statement options

Grabbed this one to review.  I've been wearing them for a few days now.  I'm pretty amazed at the obvious extra product added with the variety of sparkles.  It's only slightly above regular cost to the regular nails

I buy short length nails but found these only come in long.  A bit longer than I would like as I keep nails on for around 3 weeks, that means housework, work and whatever other daily grind my hands go through.

I was a bit worried at first because the sparkles are slightly raised,  If you find any with an edge your concerned with just lightly file it down.  I haven't caught them on any clothing to date.  We'll see how these keep up.  So far other than finding it harder to text its all good.  Ha ha actually realizing why I get such funny texts from people with long nails, hmmm its not because they can't spell!



Remember to keep the glue in your purse and if one should pop off or become loose you can repair on the spot.  You get 24 in a pack which for me gives me two sets of nails, thats 6 weeks wear for under a $10.00 investment

Did a trunk show with designer Darlene Karimi from Designer Doll Fashions by DK in December at the Shangri-La Hotel Vancouver Xi Shi Lounge ... here are some highlights.  Our backstage was a lovely private screening room.  LOL no problem seeing everyone

Instagram Week




Yay!!!! sooo excited for what's around the corner next.  I've had a really great year in most ways, met great people to call friends and got involved with some great new projects.  I've also had some rather weird things happen and for that, BRING ON 2015

T and I are both so busy and generally stick Christmas in where ever we can, this year we celebrated on Dec 27th, LOL latest yet

She is so thoughtful with her gifts and always includes pictures she's dug up from who knows where. This is our Mommy Daughter montage, love it!



New pots for a new condo from Beppe, I love them!  T says I'm turning into my Mom.  I'm like "take whatever you want from the house, just not the painting over the fireplace"   It's my favourite 









I've worked quite a bit over the holidays so last week was only able to squeeze in another visit to The Capilano Suspension Bridge light up for Christmas extravaganza.  Seriously loving that the cost of admission gives BC residents a season pass.  I can see a lot of this place in my future





Getting dorky in my old age, we have matching head pieces on and I thought it was brilliant!




 Cat in the box is good as ever
