NAILS | Formula X #ColorCurators Huda Beauty Edition #ManiMonday

This was actually supposed to be for the CBB November Challenge, but by the time I got this ready, I would have only gotten a chance to wear it for one day before having to do my nails again for Mani Monday. Nail polish should be enjoyed (not in the My Strange Addictions Way) and though I do my nails a lot compared to most, three times a week is where I draw the line.

This year has been an amazing year for collaborations and the Formula X #ColorCurators collections have been an incredible example of how powerful social media has become. Bloggers and Youtubers are the faces of these collaborations instead of your typical movie stars. I have loved most of the Formula X collections, but this Huda Beauty edition has totally gotten me. Every shade had me swooning!

NAILS | Welcoming Spring with Formula X and Cupcakes and Cashmere #ManiMonday

This month's Formula X #ColorCurators collaboration is with who I consider one of the pioneers of blogging. Emily Schuman of Cupcakes and Cashmere was probably one of the first bloggers I started reading regularly back when blogging was fairly novel. Nowadays, it feels like everyone is a blogger (ahem, yes I know that I am the pot calling the kettle black), but Emily will always be one of the pioneers and still remains one of my favourite blogs to read. I even have her book which is a wonderfully relaxing read.

I actually really liked Emily's colour choices because not only did they feature a basic nude (to be featured in a future post), but also some bright pops of colour which is how I dress. I am usually quite basic in all aspects except for one like shoes or in this case nails!


NAILS | Divided by Pink with Formula X and Patrick Starrr #ManiMonday

I can never have enough pink nail polish which is why February's #ColorCurators had me in pig squeals with Patrick Starrr's bright shades of PINK! There are three collaboration shades, two of which I am using today for today's striping tape manicure!

NAILS | Cream Pastel Dotticure with Sephora Formula X #ColorCurators #ManiMonday

There is just too much nail polish goodness in the world. When Sephora moved away from Sephora by OPI and developed their own line of Formula X polishes I oohed and aahed, but didn't run out and buy all of the polishes just yet. It took a little bit of convincing, but while I have a pretty solid nail polish collection (1600 bottles and counting...) Formula X has so many well-organized shades that are a mix of classic, unique or out of this world. Take your pic, there is something in there for everyone!

Beginning this month, Formula X has teamed up with 10 iconic #ColorCurators (I will spell it the American way) for each month to express their signature style through limited edition nail colours. January starts off with Aimee Song of Song of Style and three perfectly sweet pastel shades that are classic, timeless and look good on any skintone. Using all three shades as well as The System from Formula X, I decided to go with a classic nail art manicure in the form of a DOTTICURE!
