Pop-arazzi “Midnight Maven”

Posted in beauty, CVS, Mani Mondays, Nails of the Week, Pop-arazzi by

Happy Monday loves!

I hope you all are well! It’s been so long that I’ve last dropped in and say hi! I’ll be posting regularly after this post. Missed you guys so much!

When you sign up for CVS Beauty rewards, you get a free Pop-arazzi nail polish for your birthday. Who can say no to that! It’s free and you’re also getting cash back every time you reach $30.

Anyways, I digress. Since my birthday was last month, I got the coupon and ended up getting this lovely nail polish.

I’ve used this brand so many times but I haven’t bought one that it’s in the red shades. This one here is called Midnight Maven. It’s a beautiful wine red which only had 3 layers. After using my Seche Gel Top Coat, its already been a week and it’s still pretty strong!

Nail & Bone “Nimbus”

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!

Defy & INSPIRE “Next Season On”

Happy Monday loves!

I hope you all had a great weekend! It has been so hectic these past few weeks but I’m back for good! I have lots of ideas and plans for the next few weeks for this blog. 🙂

I think Target is going to kill me in the sweetest way and by that I mean by having Defy & INSPIRE nail polish line, only found at Target!

I’ve only bought one nail polish from that line until last week. I ran into this beauty called “Next Season On” and I know it was calling my name!

It’s such a beautiful blue-green with a copper-ish duochrome shimmer. I can’t get over this shade, I was kind of over the basic same colors I always buy. 😛

What do you guys think?!

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: 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? 🙂

Revlon ColorStay “270 Stiletto”

Posted in beauty, Mani Mondays, nails, Revlon by

Happy Monday loves!

Can you believe we’re only 2 weeks away from Christmas!

I’ve been in the mood for darker nail polishes since Christmas are coming up! So then, I opted for Revlon ColorStay in 270 Stiletto. It’s a beautiful black cream polish which works perfectly for the holidays, especially if you add an accent nail with a glitter top coat.

What do you guys think? Any other nail polishes I should look into?

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?!

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”

Posted in Mani Monday, nails, Nails of the Week, Sally Beauty, Seche Nails by

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?!
