Hang Tough

Good morning! Are your nails missing something? A little love perhaps?

No-Miss Nail Polish
The beach destroys manicures. Each element adds to nail polish ruin – sand, sunscreen and salt water. Not to mention, UV rays tend to discolor polish. However, after two days at the beach, only perfectly polished nails remained. Shock! No-Miss nail polish is simply phenomenal. The Web site describes the polish as “non-drying, moisturizing, natural smelling, durable, non-yellowing, chip resistant, quick drying, and super glossy.” No-Miss bent the truth with “natural smelling,” but the other claims prove true – so far. The polish also contains UV inhibitors, shielding nails from the sun. Choose from 150 colors and revel in the non-toxic beauty.

Cover it? Not really.

Hello! Ah, another Non-recommendation surfaces.

Josie Maran Concealer
This concealer has only one redeeming quality: most of the ingredients are natural. The dry and grainy formula spreads roughly, making it incredibly difficult to cover the eye area. Expect at least a 10-minute application, even with help from a brush. Although the package reads “a full-coverage concealer,” it actually performs mediocre, at best. The creme color – the fairest choice – was too yellow. Furthermore, it cracked under powder, making my under eyes appear 15 years older. Buyers beware.
