NAILS | Pencils for Back to School #CBBxManiMonday

 

Press samples

Even though I have long been out of school and do not have kids of my own to remind me that "Back to School" season is upon us, there is something about having been a student for so long that makes me feel like I am still part of the Back to School madness! I am sure I am not alone in this as many of us still have that recurring dream of showing up at an exam and it's the wrong room or day!

NAILS | Back to School Nail Art #ManiMonday

Last week's ManiMonday was seriously science-y and although I've maybe done one or two back to school themed nails before, this will be my first time doing them while NOT a student anymore! I was in university for two separate degrees from 2001-2011 and by the end of it I was done. I was exhausted from going to school full-time and working 40 hours a week and my then-boyfriend and I had decided that getting engaged was only going to happen once I graduated so I REALLY  wanted to be finished!

The Sally Hansen x Crayola collaboration has been one of my favourites to date and all I want to do is keep these polishes out forever because not only is the packing incredibly cute, the formulas are fantastic! Almost every single shade is a one-coater! This collection has reminded me of why Sally Hansen polishes were the first polishes I ever purchased because for the price, you get consistently good formulas and brushes that make nail polishing easy, fun and approachable.
