I have decided to try to complete the @californails November nail Art Challenge from Instagram. This is one of those 30 day nail challenges, but a “totally doable I have a life! challenge!” lol. I really liked the prompts for this month and although I am unsure if I will complete this, I really want to try. I will post each manicure the day after the due date listed.
If you’re like me you might not know what “Movember” means – just in case, let me fill you in. Movember is the renaming of the month of November to raise awareness for prostate cancer, and now just men’s health in general. Some men even celebrate the month by growing an epic mustache in November, again to help bring awareness. Have you asked those special men in your life if they have had a physical this year?

So to help spread awareness and celebrate Movember this is my kick-ass skittle Mustache MAN-icure. Each color represents a different men’s related cancer:
- Dark Blue – Colon Cancer
- Dark Purple – Pancreatic Cancer
- Light Blue – Prostate Cancer, of course
- Light Purple/Lavender – Testicular Cancer and All Cancers
This MANicure was super fast and easy with the help of the Sticky Nails vinyl “Accent Nail Stencils” which conveniently has cute little mustaches as part of the pack. There are 10 mustache stencils in the pack – 4 small and 6 medium-sized. On my small nail beds, my pinky was the only nail too small for the medium-sized sticker.

That is what I see. I’m sure they look great to you, but I doubt I’m the only one having that issue, and most people won’t have the know-how to fix it. I know what should be displayed, because I can see which site the links go to, and Instagram works for whatever reason, but it is rather sad that I’m missing out. (Deets: I’m in Firefox {what is it now – version 1 zillion?}, running Windows Vista 62bit, on a laptop.)
Thank you so much for the critique! I really appreciate your nice comments and that you pointed out this issue with my social media icons in the header. The pic REALLY helped :). The theme I use uses a widget “Genericon’d” for these icons so I let my programmer know and he thinks he may have fixed it. But we cannot duplicate the issue on our end….hopefully it is fixed on your end now.
Thank you again!
You are welcome! And yes, the problem is fixed. They are showing up perfectly now. =)
