MAC Rosemary & Thyme eyeliner

Hands!Feet! Nails!

I don’t paint my fingernails as often as I’d like because they quickly chip and flake from all the hard manual labor I do. No, not really… its because Im typing, sticking my hands in water and opening things with my nails! I love beautifully painted fingernails though and sometimes I use [...]
