Neon Nails By 2 Girls and A Pin

Set, Ready, Glow

Hi, everyone!

Long time no post. I know, I know, I am a horrible human being. Things haven’t been all sunshine and flowers for me while I’ve been absent from the blog. First of all, remember my kitty, Squeaks? My little furry baby…she is gone now. We had to make that choice and it was the most painful decision that I have had to personally make. She had stomach cancer and her chances weren’t so bright. I really didn’t want her to suffer. And I miss her every single day. Not a week later, my husband’s maternal grandfather passed and we were once again heart broken. So the last few weeks I spent travelling and spending some quality time with the family. I hope you understand and forgive my absence.

Let’s jump straight into it.

2 Girls and a Pin Facial Friday - Egg White and Lemon Mask Tested

Original pin here. And the original blog post with the ingredient list is here.

First of all, I want to say how much I suck for leaving you guys hanging last Friday and I apologize. It was a super hectic week and an amazing weekend gateway at the Big Bear Mountain. All that didn’t leave much time for me to write about my mask experience. Nevertheless, I took a moment to do the mask and take some pictures. Unfortunately, not all pictures were taken properly, so we are missing my pretty face this post. But it’s ok, I think you guys have seen enough. So let’s see what this week’s Facial Friday is all about.

2 Girls and a Pin Tested Banana Almond Oil Mask

You can see the original pin here and all the required ingredients here.

This is our fourth Facial Friday and I have to admit it’s getting a bit harder to find masks that I can easily make at home that are not a repetition or a small variation of the 3 masks we already tried. I won’t give up though, you will be getting a mask a week as promised. If you have any ideas or suggestions or if you would like us to test a mask from your blog, let us know.

Let’s jump in!
