Organization

I have issues with it.
My 'nail polish room' (Actually my brothers, as he is away at college), is such a mess I don't even know where to start. I need to get myself a helmer.. or something. I took some pictures, but as I don't want to scar my readers for life, I'm refusing to post them. If you want to picture it.. imagine your nail polish stash. Now, dump it on the floor. Mix it up a bit. Add in some used cotton balls and an open bottle of acetone. Surround it with open shipping boxes covered with test strokes. Want to cry yet? Leave half the tops off of the bottles (See post below). Alright.. someone kill me please. Preferably with a helmer.

Polish Monster

I've become a polish monster.
A few weeks ago, I would have been content to let my friends come over, play with my polishes, even use one of my franken bottles to try it out. Not anymore.

Yesterday, my friend came over. My friends make fun of my polish addiction (It's worth it though), but she was content with sitting down and painting on an old cardboard box because she'd already done her nails. I even let her use one of my pretty franken bottles (One of the new ones, not just a cleaned old bottle) to make a rather odd purple glitter color. However, this morning I came downstairs into the room where I kept my polish, and realized that EVERY SINGLE polish she had used (About 18) had the tops unscrewed, some even off and laying on my floor. I know it's my fault for not realizing this before I went to bed.. but still. That girl is NEVER touching my polish again.

PSA: I need to get a life outside of polish.

Ok, that's my rant for the day. What's yours?

Is it just me?

For me, when I'm not doing anything to improve my appearance, I look decent.
But whenever I take steps to try and improve a minor flaw, it all blows up and looks disgusting.

Like my skin for instance- I had nearly perfect clear skin up until this year, when I decided I needed to take care of one tiny pimple. So, I started washing my face with an assortment of fancy creams, and now my face looks like a minefield. Lovely.

Then, my cuticles. I didn't even know what cuticles were until I joined MUA (curse that day.. I've been draining my bank account ever since), but ever since then I've been really nitpicky about them. They were fine for awhile, but now they've developed into a battlefield of hangnails, dryness, and overall ickness that no amount of cuticle butter can seem to fix.

What to do, what to do?
