Go Glam! Get The Look with Madam Glam!

Disclosure: I received a sample of Madam Glam Gel Nail Polish for review purposes only. All opinions are 100% my own. Please refer to the Disclosure Policy for more details.


*SEE UPDATE AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS POST!* 

If you have been following my blog for the last few months, you know that I am a fan of
Madam Glam Gel Nail Polish.  Their gel polishes are super easy to use and keep my nails looking as if I've just stepped out of a salon! 

Madam Glam's super easy-to-use 3-step UV gel nail polish system consists of a base coat, nail color, and top coat. Each step requires a short curing time: 2 minutes by UV Lamp, 30 sec by LED, and offers the ideal solution for those seeking a well-groomed manicure without a visit to a manicurist. It's so fast, easy, long-lasting, and oh so shiny, people will think you've spent a fortune on your nails! Just take a look at the high gloss shine on my nails (below) and you will see why I LOVE Madam Glam! 

I used three thin coats to get the results you see in the photos. The bright pink color is Magenta #400 and I am extremely pleased with the overall quality and ease of use.  My mani is four days old in the photo below. There are no signs of wear, and the shine is incredible! Madam Glam claims 3-4 weeks of durability on their site - very impressive!

Beautifully polished nails may enhance our appearance and make us feel glamorously spoiled, but sometimes finding the time for a mani can be difficult.  We are busy moms, students, business women, just trying to look our best in the least amount of time possible! 


Well, I'm happy to share an EASY way to keep your nails looking AMAZING! I was lucky enough to have a chance to try MADAM GLAM! Madam Glam is a super easy to use 3-step UV gel nail polish system consisting of a base coat, nail color, and top coat. Each step requires a short curing time: 2 minutes by UV Lamp, 30 sec by LED. Mada1m Glam offers the ideal solution for those seeking a well-groomed manicure without a visit to the salon. It's so fast, easy, long-lasting, and oh so shiny! Just look at the high gloss shine in the pics! (see below) LOVE! 


Suggested application: A few tips before getting started! 1) Use a cutical stick to wipe excess gel from around the nail plate BEFORE curing. Once the nail is cured, it will be difficult to remove from your skin. 2) When the base coat is curing under the lamp, check to see if you missed covering any area of your nails. (Base coat will glow under the light revealing missed spots). If this happens, simply re-apply the base coat over the area missing the base coat and cure.

Suggested application:
1. Prepare nails by pushing back cuticles with a cuticle stick.
2. Gently buff the shine from your nails.
3. Remove dust from nail plate with an alcohol wipe.
4. Apply a thin layer of the UV Base Coat Gel to nail plate
5. Cure 2 minutes by UV Lamp, 30 sec by LED. 
6. Apply a thin coat of Soak-Off Nail Polish. Don't worry if the first coat appears streaky. The second coat will offer better coverage.
7. Cure 2 minutes by UV Lamp, 30 sec by LED.
8. Repeat steps 5-6, if necessary. Some colors may need 2-3 coats.
9. Apply a thin coat of Madam Glam's Top Coat.
10. Cure 2 minutes by UV Lamp, 30 sec by LED,
11. Use an alcohol pad to wipe off tacky residue to reveal a high gloss shine!


That's it! No additional drying time is required! Your nails are ready for anything!  

I used three thin coats to get the results you see in the photos. The soft and feminine color is Madam Glam's Baby Pink #66 and I am extremely pleased with the overall quality and ease of use.  My mani is four days old, there are no signs of wear, and the shine is incredible! It's important to note that Madam Glam claims 3-4 weeks of durability on their site - very impressive! I will be back to update you on the soak-off removal process.

WIN A FLAMELESS LED CANDLE!



Lights for All Occasions is an online store that offers a wide variety of decorative lights for holidays, weddings, events and parties. They specialize in battery operated LED lighting (including string lights, fairy lights, and much more) and also have an extensive line of battery operated flameless candles.  

I have been given the wonderful opportunity to review an LED Wax Pillar Candle from Lights from All Occasions.  The Primitives by Kathy Candle is made from wax and uses LED technology to cast light.  From the moment I turned on this battery-operated candle, I was in awe. The faux flame looks VERY real!  My husband and children didn't believe it was a faux flame and had to go over and touch it for themselves.  I absolutely LOVE how the soft glow fills the foyer with warmth and the dancing wick creates a beautiful reflection of the candle's light on the ceiling.   The timer is set so the candle comes on for 5 hours every evening and shuts off for 19 hours. The cycle repeats itself every day so I don't even have to remember to turn it on or off!  Every evening I look forward to the  soft, relaxing patterns of light and I enjoy the peace of mind of not worrying about a potential fire hazard. 

View the moving wick of the flameless candle below:


Here are some photos I took that I hope captures the ambiance that this amazing candle provides:

Nobody would ever believe this flame isn't real! 

I quickly scattered a few flowers and pinecones around the candle below to show you how easy it is to create a safe centerpiece for the Holidays!

A warm, soft glow welcomes guests as they enter the foyer.
