Polished Lifting

As of right now it's after noon, and I'm drinking room temp coffee trying to figure out what to say about this color. My first thought is that room temp coffee leaves a lot to be desired.


Phoenix Feathers is one of those colors that absolutely needs to be photographed in different lighting in order to get a feel for the polish. It shifts between burgundy and red with a lovely red shimmer.

By now you know what happens when I have a massive amount of untrieds in my stash. With the stakes set high, I knew I needed to use at least two untrieds in one go. I was able to create a super easy mani using only Deborah Lippmann colors. All four of the colors were previously untried making this a home run (yay sports!). I promise that will be the only baseball reference I ever make.

Pretty Woman Nail Medic- Press Sample

The Pretty Woman Nail Medic system is unlike any other nail care line currently available. The system uses a three step approach to nail care that can be customized to any need. The three phase system works as follows: cleanse, moisturize, and repair.

Day 1

As you can see, my nails were in desperate need of attention. In addition to swatching, I spend a significant amount of gardening and weightlifting, so my hands tend to run more on the dry side. I put Pretty Woman Nail Medic to the test over four weeks to see if it could keep up with my busy lifestyle.

I applied Nail Detox (phase one) and Shea Treatment (phase two) daily with the exception of when I wore a full manicure. This averaged out to about three times a week. I used Force Field (phase three) under every manicure, and when I knew I would be abusing my nails more than normal.

Day 28

Sometimes I don't quite have the words to express my love for a certain polish or brand. This is one of those times. Zoya never fails to amaze me. The formulas are spot on, and the colors are just lovely.
