Introducing... Ruby!

So last Thursday evening we brought a little girl rattie home, who we named Ruby. :)

She has a little mask because she's in mid coat change. I'm thinking she is Cinnamon. Her markings are Berkshire. We think she around 3 months old, not older than 4 months. She still has those translucent baby teeth.

Strawberry Margarita Nails, & A Giveaway! [Closed]

✯ PR Sample ✯

The Born Pretty Store was kind enough to send me some more nail art items to review. Today I will be reviewing 20 Pcs Mini Colorful Fresh Fruit: #7

I started with 3 coats of China Glaze Strawberry Fields, plus Seche Vite Topcoat. I stuck my Strawberry Fimo pieces on while the topcoat was still wet. My nail tips are Ellagee Crushed Garnet glitter. I think if I were to redo these, I would use a pink cream, and silver glitter to make them a little less busy, haha! :-p My prop drink is pink lemonade.

My new addiction: Bumblesoaps

*Please Note: Bumblesoaps will be closed until end of January 2015, due to the owner moving. 

I have a bad, bad addiction to bath products; Lush, L'Occitane, Fortune Cookie Soap, Pig  & The Peacock, KB Shimmer, and now... Bumblesoaps! My cousin had raved to me how awesome the whipped soaps are from Bumblesoaps, and how great the customer service is. And, Jennifer from Peer Pressure Polish had also mentioned to me how awesome Bumblesoaps is. (Check her blog out, she has some Bumble reviews up too). I placed my first order a few weeks ago, (which *ahem* may have quickly been followed by a second order). 

Bumblesoaps, also stole my heart forever. They recently came out with the scent Hedonic Tonic, (a dupe, if not a better dupe- for Polyjuice Potion from Fortune Cookie Soap. It's much sweeter and fruitier). I love this scent! The body butter is lightly scented, while the lotion bar is more concentrated.

PolishM: Lady Liberty, & BPS Decals.

✯ PR Sample ✯

*Note: Laquerlicious is now known as PolishM.

I picked up PolishM: Lady Liberty a few months ago, it is one of my untried nail polishes. Lady Liberty is a minty green (almost a Tiffany Blue), with gold glitter. I used 2 coats of Lady Liberty, plus Seche Vite topcoat for my manicure. Formula is great! And, the Born Pretty Store recently sent me some more nail art items to review, so today I will be reviewing the Rose Nail Water Decals: G103.

Born Pretty Store Review, with Zoya Yuna & Rue.

✯ PR Sample ✯

The Born Pretty Store was kind enough to send me some more nail art items to review! Today I will be reviewing the Happy Cat Pink Heart Pattern #K061, water decals.

I used two coats of Zoya Yuna and Rue, plus Seche Vite Topcoat. Once everything was dry I cut out the decals I was going to use and dipped them in water. These water decals sort of apply like temporary tattoos. 

The only thing that threw me off when applying is that the design is backwards. Usually you press the decal immediately onto your nail after dipping it in the water, but when I did that the cat was backwards it just looked completely white. So, what I had to do was dip the decal in water- slide it off onto one of my fingers to flip it around, and then place it on my nail. I patted it dry gently with a napkin, and applied more topcoat. They weren't hard to apply, it only took a few minutes, I think they turned out quite cute! :-) 

I think the little cat is adorable! :-)

Pets are just as bad as children... (UPDATED)

So, end of September my girl Toffee (who is about 14 months old), started getting a mammary tumor under her right leg. (Tumors are common in females rats). Usually it is my older or elderly females who get mammary tumors, and they are usually too old to be put through the stress of surgery. Usually it's just a quality of life decision I have to make. But, Toffee is youngish, very energetic, and active. She is only the 2nd female I've owned who got a tumor quite young. So we made the decision to have the tumor removed by my vet. (Which was $400 altogether). If we didn't get it removed, it would just keep growing and getting larger.
