Brand: Orly Nail Lacquer
Shade: Saturated
(electric deep purple color, glossy finish)
Cost: $$
The Scoop:
I thought purple would be a nice switch from blue, but all it made me do is wish I was wearing blue. Know what will make me feel better? Turkey. And stuffing. And taters. That's something to be thankful for. Happy Thanksgiving!

Orly in Tiara & Berry Blast
Brand: Orly Nail Lacquer
Shades: Tiara & Berry Blast
(silver color with glitter finish, bright pink color with iridescent finish)
Cost: $$
The Scoop:
Good thing I didn't have these shades when I was 16 because I would have worn them every day. I especially liked the silver sparkles -- like a million little diamonds, which is probably what Orly was thinking too when then named it Tiara. Nice work!

Welcome to My Medicine Cabinet
Ever been tempted to look in someone's medicine cabinet when using their bathroom?
Well, this is mine.
You'll notice there isn't any medicine here. Just rows and rows of nail polish. Look at those beauties! From Essie to OPI and Sephora to Sally Hansen, the girls are all here.
Clearly, I never get manicures or pedicures. I like to handle my own business.
Years ago, I went to a local beauty supply store near my hometown in Pine Brook, NJ. I spent over a hundred bucks on polish. Crazy, right? It amounted to about a dozen bottles. The girl who rang up my order had one, completely non-sarcastic question for me:
“Where is your salon located?”
Um, yeah. I don't have a salon.
Hello. My name is Jen. And I’m addicted to nail polish.
It's true, Jersey Girls love their nails. I never feel “done” without them. A peek inside my medicine cabinet makes me happy. Pretty colors, easy to switch, based on my mood.
Now, just because I’m from Jersey and I like my nails doesn’t mean I’m down with the fakes. I just say no to stick-on, press-on, glue-on, artificial nails of all kinds. Just like my boobs, lips, and lashes -- my nails are always au naturel (assuming you agree blue nails exist in the realm of natural).
Anyway, I figured I must have at least 52 bottles -- one for every week of the year -- so I started this blog to share each shade with you.
Enjoy!
