Vacation nails

This is the manicure that actually supposed to be my vacation manicure. Unfortunately it lived a day - by the evening of our first day, it started to come off with big chips and i had to remake it.
i did not used color lock system on this one. Next manicure i made - and used color locks system lived a day too, and all the other polishes with or without top coat or design lived only hours :(
So in fact i don't blame products, but climate! it is super wet where, and probably this is how my nails reacts to the humidity - the polish just comes of in a matter of hours - no matter what i use. I gave up after couple manicures and just cut my nails short and used simple Zoya french polish - one coat, which i had to renew every now and then since it was chipping too, but worked best of all other polishes i tried. So this is a tropical reality - it delivers the fun, but sacrifices manicures.
However i used color lock system for pedicure, but with other then Zoya brand - and i would say it did B+ ,because i did not have to remake my pedicure everyday. In fact it almost made it, started chipping really bad only last day.

Pictures from vactions

Finally!!! I know i know, that i should have posted it long time ago, it just gets so buisy here.
So here are some pictures from our wonderful vacations. We spent 7 nights and 8 days on the Cozumel island. I was a bit worried about the weather, since summer is a low season in Mexico, and it suppose to be too hot, but in fact - the weather was super nice for me - hot and wet, and since it is an island - a lot of breeze which make it feel very comfortable.
We had couple rain showers, but all in night, and it was even interesting to hear and see night tropical storm. The beach in our hotel was just amazing!!! Fishes and corals right where - so i spent a lot of time snorkeling. We had plans to go on tour around island and some others, but in fact was just so lazy, and preferred to just relax on the beach. The only tour we had - is that we went to the main land to visit Chichen Itza - and even though spent where all day - no regrets about it - it was a great tour and we enjoyed a lot. The only bad thing about those vactions is that it is over :) Can not wait till we go on the beach vacations again - all i need in my life is a sea, a sand, a sun, and a palm tree :)
So here are some pictures from those awesome 8 days in Mexico
