NOTW and Nail Tip

First I wanted to say hi and a big THANK YOU to all my new followers! :)

This is my nails for the week. I used Sinful Colors in Creamy Pink, it's one of my faves from them. It's a really nice bright pink with the tiniest bit of shimmer. LOVE. I forgot to take a pic the day I painted them so that's why they look a tiny bit worn.

Nail Tip:

Do you ever have those times when you're painting your nails and it seems to get all around the nail no matter how hard you try not to get it there? Well I used to always use q-tips to clean it up but I always found that they didn't allow me to get close enough to the nail to really get all the polish off. So now I use a brush instead, one that has synthetic bristles and is really small. I just dip it in a little acetone and clean everything up, it works so much better than q-tips and you also don't have to worry about cotton fibers getting on your polish either!

Do any of you do this already?

Ooh, that's a great idea! Normally I just keep a business card with me and if I go on the edges, I can wipe it away with that haha. I'm going to try this method now =)

Sinful Colors! I almost picked some up the other day but then I decided to wait for a sale or something. But that's a really smart idea! I usually just use my fingers from the other hand to swipe the polish away. But I will try your brush trick.
