Sally Hansen Color Foil Polishes in Sterling Silver and Cobalt Chrome

No comments :
Let me just say how excited I was when I spotted these in a display at Walmart. Years ago, I think it was around 2002 or so, Sally Hansen made Crystal Chrome polishes. They weren't around very long, and they became very sought-after in the nail polish world. They were awesome polishes to use with nail art stampers, as they showed up on just about any color because of their chrome finish. They also were the few "normal" polishes that actually worked with the stamping plates. Most of the time you end up having to buy the special stamping polishes because normal polish just doesn't want to transfer from the plate to the stamp and onto your nail. So when I saw these, I thought, "OMG are they the same thing?!"

Nails, Inc. Leather Effect Polish in Old Compton Street

No comments :
I recently picked this up for $7 on clearance from the Sephora website. I think Nails, Inc. polishes are one of the best brands out there - they last so long without chipping! The Leather Effects intrigued me, and when I saw that this was on clearance I had to grab it.

Lit Cosmetics Glitters in Solar Blast, Hippy Chick, Goober Grape and Boogie Nights

No comments :
In my last post I reviewed the Lit Kit that I received when I order these glitters from the Beautylish site. Today I'll be going over the glitter and why they are pretty much the best glitters ever - believe me, they live up to all the hype (for me, anyway!)

Lit Cosmetics Lit Kit

No comments :
Lit Cosmetics have been around for a while now, but it's one of those brands I just kept putting off trying. I finally caved a couple weeks ago and ordered a few things from Beautylish - they send you this cute little Lit Kit when you buy 3 of the Lit glitters! I will be reviewing the glitters soon, but for this post I wanted to focus on the kit.

NYX Macaron Lippies in Blue Velvet, Violet, Pistachio and Black Sesame

No comments :
Crazy colored lipsticks have been around in the beauty world online for a while now, with companies like Lime Crime, Melt, etc. producing pigmented, fun, not-so-wearable for every day colors. Problem is, while they're cool and everything, most people aren't going to get every day use out of them, so to me it's silly to be paying upwards of $19 for a gray lipstick. Of course they're good for mixing with other colors to see what you can come up with, but with NYX releasing the Macaron Lippies, I was quite excited to try out some affordable (around $6 each depending on where you get them) crazy colors!

e.l.f.'s New Ariel Collection Available Online!

No comments :
Just a quick heads up: e.l.f. has a new Ariel collection (with some pretty cute stuff!) and I am very surprised to find out it is available on drugstore.com
There's a bronzer/brush set, an eyeshadow set, a palette, a brush set, and a lip gloss set. Though I don't always love e.l.f.'s stuff, I may cave and order the brushes. I always have to hunt this stuff down in stores, so I'm glad they made it available online for once! (It's on the Walgreen's site as well!) Did you get anything from the collection? Let me know in the comments!

NYX Flat Brush

No comments :
I have had this for so long and keep forgetting to review it because of other reviews I need to do. So today, here we go! This is the NYX Flat Brush and I picked it up when I ordered the Macaron Lippies (which I also still need to review). I thought this would be great for contouring, as it reminded me a lot of that crazily overpriced NARS Ita Brush.

MAC Sharon and Kelly Osbourne MSF Duos in Refresh and Jolly Good

No comments :
The Mineralize Skinfinish Duos were what I was most excited for from the Osbournes Collection, so I ended up picking them both up. They are so pretty, though I do favor the Kelly one a lot more. Let's take a look!

Clothing Haul and Try-On: Some New Dresses and Fun Stuff

1 comment :
I have recently become quite fond of the website CNDirect. It is based in China so it does take a few weeks for my orders to get here, but it is so worth it. The prices are insanely awesome, and they have so many items to choose from! They have much more than clothing, but for now all I can speak on is the clothing, because I have yet to try anything else...though I have a feeling that will change in the near future lol. Seriously becoming obsessed with this site!

Dream Eyes Contact Lenses from SpookyEyes!

No comments :
I have a review I am pretty excited about today - these are fun contact lenses, as in they are colored and not prescription - but they've also got me excited for another reason. When I was about 12, I tried contacts and became very frustrated because I couldn't get them in. I gave up and never wanted to try them again, as I freaked out about having to touch my eyes. I was a little hesitant to do this review because I couldn't guarantee that I'd be able to wear them. Well guess what? Maybe I was just too young before, because it literally took me 5 minutes to get these in.

MAC Kelly Osbourne Lipsticks in Dodgy Girl, Riot House, Kelly Yum Yum & Strip Poker

No comments :
The lipsticks from the MAC Osbourne Collection were a huge hit, selling out quick when they launched June 2nd on the MAC site. They should be hitting Nordstrom and Macy's this week, along with MAC stores and counters on June 12th for sure, so I'm getting these reviews up now in case you guys still haven't decided what you want to get!

MAC Osbournes Collection Haul & Swatches!

No comments :
I have a bunch of reviews coming up soon of the MAC Osbournes stuff that I picked up, but to kick it off, I uploaded my video of my live swatches/first impressions. The stuff just came today, and I wanted to get some swatches up before everything goes on sale at Macy's and Nordstrom (and in MAC stores on June 12th) so that you guys can hear my thoughts on the stuff that I got. If you're interested, you can check out the video here:

Like I said, I'll have reviews of everything up soon. Thanks for checking it out!

Kiss Everlasting French Manicure

No comments :
I received some nails in my last Influenster VoxBox and decided to try them out. I can't recall if I've ever tried this exact type before, but I can tell you that Kiss is my go-to brand for fake nails. I have always loved them as they're easy to put on, and stay on for a great amount of time. The fact that these are already french-tipped makes it that much easier because you don't have to paint them or anything!

MAC Alluring Aquatic Golden Bronzer

No comments :
I am head over heels for this bronzer. Yes, it is a permanent color in MACs' line, but for one, I have never tried one of their bronzers before, and secondly, the packaging is just to die for.
