Happy Monday loves!

I hope you all have had a great weekend, can you believe it’s already summer!?

I’m doing something completely different but I just love this post so much that I’m reblogging it!

Speaking about puppies and doggies, here’s a shout out to Dog Product Picker! Your one stop online store for doggie products!

Happy Monday loves!

Hope you all had a great Super Bowl Weekend. I personally don’t usually watch the Super Bowl but like many people watch it for the commercials! What did you think of the commercials?

A couple weeks ago I was lucky enough to go to BlushCon 2018. It was part of the Asian American Expo, and it was probably one of the biggest expos I’ve been to.

As I was browsing BlushCon, I came across a booth: Nail & Bone. First thing that came to my mind was it must be a nail polish brand that has to do something with dogs. I was right!

Nail & Bone is a nail polish company that gives 20% of their proceeds to pet rescue and adoption centers such as SPCALA  Friends for Life, Best Friends Animal Society and Greater Good Animal Rescue.  My heart jumped a beat when I learned about it.

The cutest thing about this company is that all the shades are named after famous influential people’s dogs! Ellen has one and even Halle Berry! Look at that puppy trademark!

The shade I’m wearing is Nimbus which looks great on an accent nail and if you’re feeling daring you could even use Nimbus as a multi-color glitter top coat. I used Julep in Jet as the base coat.

Did you want to know who owns this adorable Mini-American Eskimo dog? I’ll give you a hint: her first YouTube video was an Avatar Naa’vi makeup tutorial. She became a viral sensation and has more than 4.5 million subscribers. Last but not least, she’s well known for her transformation videos. Any ideas yet??….

….

Promise Phan!!!

Btw: She actually did transform herself to Nimbus, his reaction was just too adorable! Check it out here!

Pop-arazzi “Mink It Over”

Happy Monday loves!

I hope you had a great weekend. Is it just me or is this month just flying by?! We’re already half way done with March!

Don’t you love it when you get an unexpected ExtraCare Rewards from CVS? I had a $3 EC Reward and eventually picked 2 Pop-Arazzi nail polishes. 2 for $3, I mean why not? I didn’t even have to pay for tax! lol

Today, I’m wearing Pop-arazzi in the shade “Mink It Over”. It’s a simple gray shade that works with literally every season!

What do you guys think?

Mani Monday: Seche Ambitious

Happy Monday loves!

Hope you all are recovering the Daylight Savings change. I feel like a zombie at the moment! Am I the only one who feels that way? lol

I’m back after a little hiatus with a new Mani Monday special! Since we are getting into the fall season, I opted for a dark metallic cobalt blue from Seche Premier Colour sold at Sally Beauty. I got it for under $2 in the clearance bin! FYI: Always look for the clearance items at Sally Beauty, you’d be surprised!

This is called Ambitious and I just love the way the blue stands out, it’s a great color for fall!

What do you guys think?!

Seche Premiere “Intrepid”

Happy Monday loves!

We’re finally in October! You know what that means? It’ll be a few weeks till my birthday! 😀

Be on the lookout for some birthday posts and tips!

 

I was at Sally Beauty a few days ago and found this beautiful Seche Premiere shade in the clearance section. You’d be surprised what you’d find in those clearance bins!

It’s an intense magenta shade with a duochrome of pink and very light sparkle. I needed a change from all the metallic shades I’ve been wearing!

So what do you guys think?!

Defy & Inspire “Moon Dust”

Happy Monday loves!

I hope you all had a great weekend! Sorry, I’ve been somewhat MIA, it’s been a bit crazy here.

I was at Target a few weeks ago and came across Target’s new nail polish line: Defy & Inspire Wear Resistant Nail Lacquer! I normally don’t spend $7 on nail polish but I realized I needed to try this brand let alone the shade.

A little about Defy & Inspire: Their motto is “Beauty is our Responsibility”. Defy the Ordinary. Inspire the Extraordinary. It’s one of those new brands of nail polishes that have 5 Free: No DPB, Toluene, Formaldehyde, Formaldehyde Resin or Camphor. I only know about the first Formaldehyde! lol

Target did a great job designing a nail polish brand! I mean have you seen the intensity of this “Moon Dust”?! According to Target’s website, it’s considered a metallic finish and metallic color palette. In my opinion, it’s a mix of sparkly baby blue, light purple with duo-chrome glitter. I topped it off with Revlon’s Gel Envy Diamond Top Coat, hence that strong sense of shine.

What do you guys think? Have any of you tried Defy & Inspire?

Pop-arazzi Bronze Metal

Happy Monday loves!

Hope you all had a great weekend! Everyone going through natural disasters: you’re in my prayers! ❤

I’ve recently have been interested in more metallic nail polishes and now I can see why!

This one I’m wearing is Pop-arazzi in Bronze Metal. I’ve applied 2 coats and I like it, it’s not overly bronze and an even shade. I see it more of a rose gold but either way, I love it!

What do you guys think?!

Seche Premiere “Gifted”

Happy Tuesday loves!

Hope you all had a great Labor day weekend here in the states!

I’m so happy that autumn is coming closer which means more sweaters, amazing fall colors and our most loved flavor PUMPKIN SPICE!!

I realized Sally Beauty, TJMaxx and Target are my guilty pleasures! I just can’t come out of those stores without buying something.

I went to Sally a few weeks ago and went straight to the clearance section since I’ve fallen in love with the Seche Premiere polishes. I found them again and bought 2 and it was an extra 50% off. You can’t go wrong especially if I only paid $1.18 for each!

Here, I’m wearing Seche Premiere in Gifted. From the bottle, it looks like a rich ruby red but as you can see, it looks more like a ruby pink red shade. Either way, I love it! I applied 2 coats and topped it off with Revlon ColorStay Gel Envy Diamond Gel Top Coat.

What do you guys think?!

OPI Gel Malaga Wine

Happy Monday loves!

Hope you all had a great weekend!

This is the first time I’ve got a gel manicure and I love it! I went over to my sister’s on Saturday and she had bought the gel at home kit and did my nails for me. A first that’s for sure!!

It was  either bubble gum pink, another light pink or the Malaga Wine. I’m a sucker for any dark wine nail polish so I picked this one!

I definitely love this color and how the shine comes through! It’s nice to know that it’s supposed to last for 2 + weeks!

What do you guys think!?

 

Seche Premiere in “Goddess”

Happy Monday loves!

Hope you all had a great weekend and have been able to cool down in this crazy heat!

I couldn’t resist temptation and I had to go to Sally’s Beauty and check out their clearance. Low and behold, it was the same sale I saw last time I came in: Seche Premiere nail polishes up to 50% off. I originally was going to get the base and one shade. As I went to go pay, the lovely cashier told me there was a promotion: Buy 2 clearance items, and get the 3rd one free. So of course, I went back and looked for another shade that I would love. More on that next Monday 😀

I opted for Goddess which is a pretty metallic glittery almost white gold look to it. I think if I were to add this shade to another color as a top coat, it would look even prettier.

Teal Tuesdays: Seche Vivacious Nails

Posted in Nail of the Day, nails, Sally Beauty, Seche Nails by

Happy Tuesday loves!

Changing it up a bit here on the blog: By the time I did my nails yesterday, it was too late to take a picture of it. I figured I’d post it today!

I love going to Sallys Beauty and looking at the clearance sections. Sometimes if you’re lucky enough, the clearance section is actually 75% off of the red tag.

I found this beautiful Seche Premier Color in Vivacious for only $2.99. Not bad at all in my opinion!

I think I might actually buy the base coat for this line later on this week.

I used two coats for this beautiful teal shade to show off this beauty!
