Overall I love these shades and I love the formula. They all went on smoothly and two coats where all I needed for an even streak-free application. My nails felt nice and strong with it one and it didn't chip on my as I went through my daily life, which almost never happens. The colours are all great for the winter, all with more grey added to them but not drowning out the colours or muting them.
Bio Sculpture's GEMNINI Line features a UV filter, plant hardening extracts like aloe vera and ginseng. They also have matching shades in their BioGel line so you can use them to touch up after a BioGel application in a salon. Finally Bio Sculpture polishes are 10-Free Non-Toxic, Cruelty-Free, Vegan, Award-winning and 5-Star Safety Rated.

You Can find Bio Sculpture GEMINI Nourishing Nail Polish line at BioSculpture.com, irisbodyandbeauty.com and salons that use Bio Sculpture. They retail for $20.50 Cad.

All the shades are a bit thick due to the glitters in them and can look rough when dried, so it is best to apply a good topcoat. I like to use Essie Gel Setter Top Coat whenever I use an Essie polish and its glossy gel finish works really well with these polishes.

TIED & BLUE

CAUGHT ON TAPE

UNDER WRAPS

Under Wraps is a pine green shimmer with the holographic glitter in it. When applied you can really see the glitters and their colour changes. I definitely found that although the base polish is green, the blue in the glitters can give it a bit of a turquoise look.

This is a miniature version of Conair's Hot Ionic Straightening Brush, which I absolutely adore. A mini version (or they make a mini straightening iron and drier too) is the perfect gift for that person who travels, goes to the gym, or just has short hair. I personally had my hairdresser take my hair much shorter than normal ("oops I took it too short" are words you never want to hear from your hairdresser), so I am loving this mini version.

Dry nails, hang nails and ragged cuticles are a way of life for me, thats why I was so exited to try out products meant to help rescue my poor suffering nails.
Rescue Rxx ($20.50 / 15 ml)

A highly effective new treatment from CND that repairs damaged nails with the power of Keratin protein and moisturizing jojoba oil. With daily use, peeling and white spots are dramatically reduced. See a difference daily. -cnd.com

This is a daily nail treatment meant to go onto bare nails. You just paint it on like normal nail polish or treatments, the only difference is it doesn't leave any coat on your nails once it is dry. Just paint it on and let it dry, then its gone, fantastic. This Keratin formula works in just one week to improve the strength of your nails and reduce white spots on them. I noticed that after one use I noticed my nails felt firmer and stronger when I would push on them. After a week I noticed my nails were breaking less and actually growing a bit, so I am officially impressed. I really liked that there was not polish like coating on my nails like most formulas, every time I've used one of those they always chip off part way through the day and did little for my nails. Rescue Rxx actually absorbs into the nails instead of just sitting on top of them.

Cuticle Eraser ($13.99 / 50 ml)

CUTICLE ERASER micro-exfoliates cuticles with a rich, creamy blend of alpha-hydroxy acids that effectively moisturizes cuticles and helps prevent hangnails. -cnd.com

All other cuticle erasers that I have even used are pretty harsh and smell like pretty strong chemicals, they also need to be rinsed off quickly or they can do some pretty strong damage to your nails and cuticles. Cuticle Eraser isn't like that, its a daily treatment you just rub into your cuticles and after a week you should see a difference in your cuticles. It relies on micro-exfoliants and alpha-hydroxy acids to help soften and remove your cuticles gradually. I also love that this has a fine tip applicator so applying it (and not too much of it) is a breeze.

SolarOil ($10 / 7.3 ml)

Award-winning cuticle oil is infused with jojoba oil and vitamin E. Repeated use drives nutrients in deeper, creating stronger, healthier nails and hydrated cuticle area. SOLAROIL should be used with ANY nail service. -cnd.com

Dry nails and cuticles suck, the nails break, cuticles fray and you get hang nails, super fun stuff. Obviously the best thing to do with dry anything is to moisturize, which is why SolarOil is so great. It has a brush as an applicator for accurately and not over applying it. It also happens to be a very light absorbent oil that do't leave your hands oily for too long

Nightly for the first week right before bed I have been using the Rescue Rxx followed by the Cuticle Eraser and followed up by the SolarOil and I have noticed stronger nails with much nicer cuticles and less hang nails (woot woot, just what I always wanted).

ScrubFresh ($20.50 / 236 ml)
I can never keep polish on for more then a few days without a million chips or even flat out peeling. ScrubFresh is a product meant to prep your nails pre polishing to prolong their wear by drying out the nail bed for a proper adhesion. It is a simple, but brilliant concept, but one I definitely needed to prevent lifting. Since it is drying I recommend using they SolarOil after you are done your nails to rehydrate your cuticles and the surrounding skin areas.

Vinylux Weekly Polish ($12)
I got four gorgeous shades of this weekly polish to try out, Lavender Lace (light lavender), Be Demure (light pink), Date Night (Blue) and Desert Poppy (an orange that leans a bit red). This is a two step week long polish that requires no lamps to cure it, just a top coat.

Ok, so here goes. Rembmer when I got the Maple VoxBox and it had Impress Manicure Nails in it? Well here is a link to the  review on the nails that I did for that box.

Now here is the thing, Inflenster sent me another VoxBox (yippie) this time filled with two sets of Impress Manicure Nails.

So it is kind of odd that all the tasks are just about the same and I already did them.

But any who I am going to do a quick little post about the nails and my mani that I did with them.

The nails I recived

First off let me say that I do really like these nails and a week before getting them I bought two sets at the Lisa sale. That being said, I do not like the one pattern I was sent....so with that I am using them to demo this post. There is nothing wrong with them, just not me, no no no they are not me. Who they are, I do not know.

What's inside

More of what is inside

So my first step is to always dup the nails out and lay out the ones that will fit the best. This time I wasn't so sure on my middle fingers so I put out two.
 Then I wash my hands, dry them, use the file (oh who am I kidding, I use my own nail file) and then wipe them down. Now we get to the exciting part, peeling. Start with you non dominant hand and work pinkie to index then do your other hand. Then thumbs. All you do is peel the tab off and pale down. I like to hold them down for a few seconds so they really stick

For some reason I started with my ring finer, but here it is,

The end result:
