Last week I threw a “girls night in” pamper party and treated my girlfriends to Sally Hansen’s new “no-light” Sally Hansen® Miracle Gel™ manicures! It had been a really long time since the four of us had gotten together so what better way to treat ourselves than with wine, girl talk and manicures?!?! BTW, I don’t know if you’ve tried Cupcake Vineyards wine before but I picked a bottle up on a whim several months ago without realizing it was a screw-top bottle of wine…just because I thought the name was cute. And all of my girlfriends ended up loving it! Plus you have to have cupcake wine with mini cupcakes!

After we chatted over a glass of wine, we were ready to get our mani party going! We each picked our favorite color and had a good laugh over the fact that one of my friends always wanted to be a hand model. SO congrats Samantha…here is your big hand modeling debut! =) We are wearing (starting w/ top left and going clockwise) “Pink Cadillaquer” (shade 170), “Too Haute” (shade 520), “Redgy” (shade 330) and “Get Mod” (shade 450).

I don’t get to paint my nails nearly as much as I used to, so being able to do a long-lasting at-home gel mani has been fabulous. And I’m happy to report that each one of my friends text me to let me know how impressed they were with Sally Hansen® Miracle Gel™ nail polish. Longer lasting mani’s with no chipping for days longer than their usual polish PLUS a super shiny top coat!

DIY Mani Tip: Try to avoid painting your cuticle for a more professional looking manicure.
