Holiday Potpourri

Dip Powder Nails
First off, have you been wondering how well those dip powder nail kits really work? I had Rossi Nails reach out to me a few weeks back and ask if I would review their dip powder kit. I created a video of the process that can be viewed at the bottom of this post. So...
Missing Mickey
When Fall and Spring hit at our house, we start dreaming of when we will head to California next to go see Mickey. This year has been weird. We are missing being able to plan a trip to see Mickey. I imagine some of you are feeling the same way. So, I thought it would...
