Mani Monday: CND Vinylux Weekly Polish “Dark Lava #110”

Posted in beauty, CND Vinylux, CVS, Mani Mondays, nails by

Happy Monday loves!

Hope all had a great weekend. 🙂

Did you know that CVS now sells CND Nail polish?! Well, I first saw it a few months ago but finally purchased a polish to see if it was worth the hype. Let me tell you, there’s a ton of shades of these polishes! It costs $10.50, a little expensive then usual but hey, you know I just love trying new polishes.

I got the CND Vinylux Weekly Polish in the shade Dark Lava. It’s a shimmery dark purple with a red tone and also a bit opaque.

I think I’m a big fan of wine colored polishes for the most part!

What do you think? 🙂

Happy Monday loves!

I hope you all had a great weekend.

I’m so excited for this nail polish! As I recently mentioned in my other blog post, CVS had an awesome deal for Revlon nail polishes. $4.99 for a nail polish and get $ back in Extra Rewards.

It came with a Color Stay Gel Envy in Wild Card and a Diamond Top Coat.

It’s a beautiful bright potent cobalt blue! Explaining it won’t even give the color justice. Take a look for yourselves! 🙂

I was lucky to get chosen from Influenster to receive the Spice VoxBox. I love getting these holiday boxes, they always come with a bunch of different goodies in there. Here’s the breakdown of what was in the box!

Botanics Organic Hydrating Day Cream ($12.99)

This hydrating organic day cream softens and moisturizes skin for 24 hours. I love the scent, when i first opened it, all I could smell was the rosehip seed oil. I can’t wait to try this! Target carries this brand.

Foot Petals (Killer Kushionz $12.95)

I actually tried this out last year, it’s so comfortable. You just trace the size of your boots, cut it to the right size and boom, you place it in the boot. And the best part is, you can put it in any type of boots, flats or heels!

Julie G Elegant Edge

Happy Monday loves!

Hope you’re all doing great and enjoyed your weekend!

I’m finally back on track for Mani Mondays! 😀

This week, I’m wearing Julie G “Elegant Edge” that I purchased from 99. Cent Only Store. This is probably one of my favorite wine colors of all time, which is funny because I’ve been looking for a favorite wine color recently and all the other colors I had didn’t feel like a true wine color.

This usually is sold at Rite Aid for about $4 but I found this at the dollar store and only paid .99 cents. We all know I”m probably going to go back and look for more shades! lol

What do you guys think? Have you found any good deals lately?

Happy Friday loves!

 

How are you all?! I figured I would change up this week and do my Mani day today instead. (Back to the old days!)

So in my last post, I mentioned that I bought some nail polishes at the .99 cent only store and oh dear lord, I love them! It also helps that its pretty darn cheap! I only paid .99 compared to going to Rite Aid and paying $3.99 or so.

I really love this color and how it changes color in the sun.

Essie Merino Cool

Happy Monday loves!

Don’t you love going to your friend’s house and playing around with her makeup and polishes! I was with a friend and noticed her polish and I loved it. So when I went to her house, I ended up doing my nails there.

This week I’m wearing the Essie Merino Cool. I’ve only purchased one Essie product my whole life and that was the matte top coat (sadly was not worth it!).

This is a dark taupe shade and it’s such a pretty color for the summer, especially when you don’t want to go with the usual pastels.

Wet n Wild I Need a Refresh-Mint

“A thing of beauty is a joy forever: its loveliness increases; it will never pass into nothingness.” -John Keats

Happy Monday loves. Hope you all had a great weekend!

I am definitely loving the new spring nail polishes coming out! I found this Wet n Wild nail polish in the shade 218A I need a Refresh-Mint. It’s such a beautiful baby blue teal color great for spring and Easter. It’s a very bright color  which I love! I scored this nail polish at CVS for only $1.99 which is a very good deal! I love this type of polish just because the brush is ideally round and bigger than most brushes.

Revlon Nail Art 03-Stud Struck

“People are like stained – glass windows. They sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in, their true beauty is revealed only if there is a light from within.” -Elizabeth Kublor-Ross.

Happy Easter Monday loves!

I’m soo sorry I’ve been way behind posting! I got sick this past week and it was not good! Anyway’s I’m back and hope you guys didn’t give up on me.

I realized that I have lots of nail polish and yet I’ve never tried any of the nail art stickers that every brand is popping out with. I was at the .99 cent store and found a pretty good steal. The Revlon Nail Art 3D Jewel Appliques Denim & Diamonds for only $1. Great idea especially for someone who’s never tried it before and doesn’t want to pay lots of money to try it out.

Now let me tell you, trying it for the first time was a little difficult, having to not have any air bubbles and trying to figure out with nail art fits with which nail. But really not bad for a first time try.

What do you guys think? Which ones have you tried or recommend?! 🙂

 

 

 

NYC Color 247 Prince Street

Posted in beauty, Mani Mnday, Nail of the Day, nail polish, nails, NYC Color by

Good morning loves! Happy Monday!

I have a guilty confession to make…  I haven’t bought nail polishes in awhile and it’s kililing me! lol the last thing I bought nail wise was a basecoat. (That’s for another blog post)

So as I was going through my nail polish pile trying to find a polish I haven’t blogged about yet and I found a pretty shiny metallic purple that is a little bright.

It’s the NYC Color Minute 247 Prince Street and for the accent nail I used the CoverGirl Scalding Emerald which is from the Hunger Games limited edition. I love using these polishes for an accent nail.
