New Year, New Post! Mani of the Day: Snowflake Mani!

Happy New Year! It has been a few months since I have blogged, the past year has brought me a lot of ups and downs and I feel like things have straightened themselves out enough where I can happily blog again!

To start my return to blogging I give you this mani inspired by one of my favorite bloggers The Lacquerologist! Check out her original mani here :)

OPI DS Mega Post!!

First, I want to apologize for the ever increasing lack of posts, I have had an extremely stressful term on top of a bunch of personal issues to deal with. I hope you all forgive me and will continue to follow Pretty in Paint, I promise the blog with be up and running like it used to be, but it may take another 2 months until that is possible.

Now, onto the post!

Today I have OPI DS polishes! I have 6 different DS polishes, all of which I purchased from copious! I didn't spend over $2.50 for any of these! These polishes are amazing and I am so excited to share the swatches!
