Majolica Majorca Glass Drop
Friday, Feb. 17, 2012 | 38 Comments
Remember that Majolica Majorca Glass Drop Gel Coat I got from Yesstyle? Well it’s been my favorite top coat for weeks now.
It’s a quick drying shiny top coat that mimics the look of gel nails. When it’s freshly applied it does look quite glassy and gel-like! 
It’s dry to the touch within moments which I love. Quick drying is a must for me. It’s a pretty durable top coat as well. Takes quite a few days before I notice any chipping. Honestly I haven’t noticed much because I end up repainting my nails before it even begins to chip. 
One thing I will note is that the top coat does become dull about 3 days later from scuffing. So while it still looks great, it’s not as shiny and gel-like after a few days of wear.
etc.
I recently went through my makeup and cleared out some older items or items I wasn’t really using any longer. It’s also a cathartic experience. I actually meant to clear through my nail polishes first but tackled the more challenging makeup instead. It feels great to walk past my makeup bag and see everything organized again. The rest is in my travel makeup bag that I take with me daily.
Lastly I got these Godiva biscuits for Valentine’s Day along with a box of Godiva chocolates. Honestly I’m in love with these biscuits!! It’s the first time I’ve gotten to try them and I’m loving the break from their usual truffles, etc. Maybe biscuits aren’t as “gift-worthy” as a box of chocolates but I’m so happy I received these. Especially wonderful with a cup of tea.

A sort of hodgepodge of images. This weekend was pretty bleak with snow and ice since Friday night. 
Even getting to work this morning was ice-crap-tastic. So I just want to post a few catch-up photos.
At New Year’s I ordered a restock of a ton of sweat baths plus some of the new Bison bath salts. Got them at imomoko.
Reordered a lot of my favorites plus a few new ones to try. 
Also wanted to share what I did with that IKEA stuff I bought for my cubicle. Keep in mind I work in an older government building where the main colors include maroon, brown, and gray. The stuff I got helped spruce it up a bit I think. I’m really happy with it and if I ever get tired of it this stuff will fit into my home decor easily! 
I wish the photos had come out better but florescent lighting just sorta kills everything. Mostly my work materials are on the top shelf and in the magazine files. I now have my tea in the rose containers. I cleared away a lot of old work documents and put them into proper drawers leaving room for photo frames and a bit more open space. Seeing a stack of papers all the time was really a downer. Clutter can feel like such bad energy sometimes. So putting them up, away in file cabinets, was long overdue. 
Lastly, these Emi-Jay hair ties!
I bought these over a month ago… I LOVE THEM. I got them at South Moon Under. They’re perfect. They don’t pull my hair when removing but still stay in place for high ponytail looks. I usually get headaches quickly from having my hair pulled back, these don’t give me bad headaches at all. Not to mention they’re lovely aesthetics. They’re sweet to wear around the wrist as an emergency hair fix!
I picked up the “METALLIC COLLECTION” version. I would actually purchase another pack. So far they really last. The ends are fraying just a little on the silver one which I wear the most but they’re secure and wouldn’t need replacing very often. I felt sorta stupid at first spending $12 on hair ties but looking back it was totally worth it and I’d do it again. Actually I’ll probably pick up more eventually!
