Fuse Sensationail

I've been using this gel nail set for a little over a year now and I absolutely love it! The original starter set was a gift from my mum after I saw it in Walmart and wanted to give it a try. I'm so glad I did because it has to be the easiest way to get a nice manicure on your own at home. I've now collected an array of colors and have used it often enough that I felt I had to write a review.
I love that it's super easy to use, quick(ish), and leaves my nails looking nice. I dislike how quickly it chips/peels and how expensive the cleanser is (which you're supposed to use before and after you apply the polish). 

It takes about 15-25 minutes to apply to your nails. First you have to cleanse your nail with the fuse cleanser, to be honest, I'm not sure what this does but I try to follow product directions. Then the polish which requires multiple coats, depending on the colors, some are more sheer and require 3 coats but most require 2. Then you cure the polish with the light, I do this between each layer because otherwise the polish gets sticky. After all of that you just need to wipe the nail with a wipe of the cleanser and you're done!

Fall

Lately I've been feeling pretty homesick and desperate for Fall to begin. I miss the crisp morning air, the crunch of the leaves and the the warm scents. However Virginia is far from feeling like fall; it's humid, sticky and gross outside. So I decided to retry one of my old body fragrances. 
I got this last year at Walmart for like $5 and it was so worth it. Not only does this smell like warm spicy pumpkin pie, it smells like happiness and fall and I love it.
The perfect pick me up.
More updates to come...
