Pardon My Nails: The Collection That I Gave Away

I’ve got these beautiful nail polishes from Caronia at the Blogapalooza Event last October 2014. Aside from the usual giveaway that I’ve got, which is the Blue Moon Collection, I also got another set from their on-the-spot Instagram contest. 

Caronia nail polishes

The colors are just so divine, and I love them. The problem is, I felt that I’ve got a lot and can’t even use all of them. Aside from the regular job that I have, my travel time from work to home, my chores at home (talk about hectic schedule) and including the bonding time with my kids when I got home, I hardly had time to try all of them.

I was thinking of giving it to one of my friends, or divide it to them so there would not be any hard feelings. But I was thinking, they can afford to buy one, or a set or two. Then I remembered an old friend, who is now a beautician near our place. We used to play volleyball every summer during college years. Surviving with three children alone is really not that easy. So, I thought I’ll just give all these nail polishes and the other stuffs to her. She would be able to use it as part of her profession. At least something that would help her out, and for her customers to choose from when she does home service.

Tried them before giving it away. On my thumb Bouree, pinky- Eternity, ring finger - Avant, middle finger - Orange Pop, pointer finger - Butterscotch.

I’m sorry Caronia, I really love all of them, but I just felt that a friend needed it more than I do. As they say, “Share your blessings.”

The Pardon My Nails series (?) will not end here of course, there would be a lot more nail polish trials and color experiments that I would still be sharing.

Pardon My Nails 3: Toe Version

And I'm back! :)

Already a month and am still adjusting with my normal life on a morning shift. This is what you got for being used to the graveyard shift for the past three years. :)

This is one of the products that I've got from the Blogapalooza event last October, the Caronia Blue Moon Special Collection.

I tried the Chasse, which is under the shade of blue, and this time on my toe nails.

Looks good! And this is after cleaning the excess nail polish that went across the borders. :) Still messy even on applying nail polish on my toe nails. Especially with that very small toe nail that I have.

The nail polish will definitely last longer with a base coat to protect your toe nails or finger nails, and a top coat to protect it from chipping off. 

I'll be using the other two colors soon, Avant (green shade) and Bourree (orange shade) and see if they would also match my skin. I just felt that any nail polish should compliment your skin too. It's like an accessory, everything should go along with your outfit. 

Then after trying the Blue Moon Collection, i'll be trying the other nail polishes that I've got as a prize from Caronia.
