Organization: Nail Polish

Organization: Nail Polish

Previously, all my nail lacquers were tossed in a plastic storage bin in a bathroom cabinet. Not only could I not easily see which shades I had, but the bottles would end up falling down on their sides, causing the polish to separate in a weird way. Then, I got […]

Instant Pick-Me-Up: Red Lips and Tips

Instant Pick-Me-Up: Red Lips and Tips
