EMMA Beauty: A Vegan and Cruelty-Free Nail Polish Brand with A Focus On Fashion and Style

Disclosure: Style, Decor & More received a gift from EMMA Beauty but was not required to write a post. All thoughts and opinions expressed herein are that of the author. 

The desire for beautiful nails has triggered a global market booming with vast assortments of nail polish finishes and endless shades to fancy our fingertips. Unfortunately, not all nail polish brands are created equal and that's why it is important to be an educated consumer and read the labels. In fact, some nail polish brands contain toxic and potentially hazardous ingredients that can lead to possible health risks. And if that weren't bad enough, many brands still test on animals too, which is why you want a nail polish brand that is PETA-certified.

POPSUGAR Must Have Box

There's nothing quite like the feeling of receiving a surprise package delivered right to your door! I know, because that's what happened to me earlier this week when POPSUGAR sent me a Must Have box! As soon as I saw the bright pink PS. box, I couldn't wait to open it and find out what was inside! You should have seen me. I was grinning ear to ear like a child who was about to open their birthday present!

Get Glam Nails with Madam Glam!


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! All the nail colors I've sampled from Madam Glam leave behind a super high gloss shine that demands serious attention! Believe me, I've received compliments from cashiers at stores to friends and complete strangers at social events.  Anybody who sees your hands will take notice. And I must say, holding a fancy drink with awe-inspiring color and shine on your nails is feels amazing! 
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 under a UV Lamp, 30 seconds under an LED lamp, 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!

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! 

It's Mani Monday!

  • For The Love of Apothecary Jars!

    MILANI Beauty Box Splendor!

    I'm soooooo excited! I just had to share this wonderful box of beauty samples I received from MILANI today! The colors are absolutely GORGEOUS! 

    Here's my plan: I really want to share these AMAZING products with several lucky readers (if you're interested)!  First, I will need to swatch the shadows for my review. In order to keep the sampling process sterile and sanitary, I will purchase trial applicators to use for sampling the shadows. After the shadows are swatched and reviewed, I will share the love!  Hopefully nobody will mind a mark across the top of the shadows.
