A Vampy Varnish for the pedi premiere

Warning! Feet ahead! If you're horrified by them- don't scroll down below the text.

Faithful readers may remember I had a small poll a while ago, when I was considering posting pedi photos. From all the days I have spent at the nail board on MakeupAlley, I know many dread seeing others' feet, so I wanted to check how big a percentage actually do. We know that those protesting about things tend to be louder than the ones who are OK with things. This is generally true in most areas. If a restaurant customer is satisfied with their experience in a certain restaurant, statistics show they usually tell one other person about it. If the customer is dissatisfied on the other hand, they tell ten others. So, if you're a restaurant owner, think of your reputation. If you're just a nail blogger, check if the feet haters are more than a tenth!

The outcome of my poll, shows that 68 %, or 31 out of 45, wants to see pedis. More than I expected, I have to admit. But as many as 20 %, or 9 peeps, say they will vomit all over my blog. From the comments you left, it was a common view that pedis are generally OK to post, provided they are clean and neat. Of course- no one wants to see others' sweaty, fungus-ridden feet.

And don't worry, now that I am taking the huge step of showing you my feet (it actually does feel kinda personal!), I made sure to do the super neat pedi regimen before shooting. I do that maybe every third or fourth time I redo my pedi, which is about once every two weeks. Below are my feet after two rounds of cuticle remover, filing, cutting and what not. Yes, feet tend to get kinda scary with time, a lot more than our hands do...

The color I chose, I actually got because I thought it would make an awesome pedi. I knew from the beginning I wanted it, but it didn't get into my primary order from the collection when it was first released. However, I later saw the bottle in person, and thought to myself "Ah, what an excellent pedi color! Have to order this the next time." Said and done. I give you BB Couture Vampy Varnish.



Ehh... So... How do you guys like my feet? Hahah! Honestly, I like my feet. One (or perhaps two) of few body parts I'm actually happy with. Wide and duck-like, I like them anyway. They may not fit well in shoes, but I think they are actually kinda cute. The toenails, however, have been reshaped beyond recognition. I cut and file from most sides.

During the summer, I do not only sport open toes, I usually wear flipflops all season, so trimmed and cute feet is a must. That is why I am in a way warming you up now, because towards the peak of heat here in old Sweden, I may show you more feet- that is if you don't totally disapprove.

Swedish word of the day:

Because it was an easy choice this time.
