Revlon Nail Stencil Mustache Nails

Mustache, Moustache, Moosestache. However you say it...lol 
I found some Revlon Nail Art Stencils at the Dollar Tree and thought they were ADORABLE! 

I picked up the Mustache ones: 


Please excuse the empty package...I torn them open and used them before I even thought to take pictures. 

When you open the package, they are in one solid sheet and do NOT need to be cut apart...I did not realize this...so I cut mine apart...


There are 10 per pack, I tried to reuse the same 5 on both hands because this was the only mustache set my Dollar Tree had left...and they rarely reorder things...It worked out alright...

One thing I want to point out about these, they are very sticky...and a lot of the sticky backing stuck to my nail and it took me sometime to rub it all off. Other than that...everything went smoothly! 

They made the cutest little mustaches on my nails!! 


I am planning on going back to the Dollar Tree and picking up the star design and a few other ones that they had! 

Definitely a keeper in my book!!!

Donna Michelle (Dollar Tree) nail stickers

Well. I was feeling a little bit better today after being sick sick sick for the past week and decided to take advantage of it and finally get my polish off. The last two days I have sent myself into a coughing frenzy after just one nail...I didn't want to push it so I took out my nail stickers I got from the Dollar Tree a few days ago...Cute Halloween nail stickers with scarecrows on them.
They come in a package of 10 for 1 dollar. So it doesn't give a lot of size choices. You just have to work with what is given. 



I honesty can say...I don't really care for them! I found it nearly impossible to get them to lay flat without having bumps and none of them were the right size for my nails...They were all too small! Maybe that is just me having very wide nails...
I have a few more of these nail stickers and will probably use them as accent nails instead of full hand nails.  These ones can stay on for now because I am too tired to mess with them any more...but my dislike for bumps and the gaps on the sides can't be masked by my love for the design...Good thing they were cheap!

Nail Polish Haul!

So, I went on a bit of a shopping spree the past two days. I bought a total of 13 new polishes, a cuticle oil and my very first bottle of Seche Vite!  

I found 3/6 Wet N Wild Halloween polishes at Walgreens and LOVE them! I am still on the hunt for the other three...Toxic Apple is a gorgeous purple color with a green tone to it! It is amazing! 

Colors from left to right: Root of all Evil, Toxic Apple, Deadly Dose

While I was in Walgreens I saw the Sinful Colors Halloween display and ran to it because I saw this:
Eeek! Yellow and Red glitter!!! I was so excited about this one! It was only 1.99 and it is just GORGEOUS! It happens to be the color I am wearing right now. I used Sinful Colors in Lets Meet as a base color but think this would look amazing over black!!! 
P.S. It is a awesome dupe of China Glaze Electrify! 

I decided to check out the clearance in Walgreens and stumbled across another awesome find! 
Three Nabi Magnetic colors for only 1 dollar! I have searched over the bottles and cannot find a name on them so I am just calling them: Shimmer Nude, Gold, and Red. lol 

I then went to Sally's Beauty Supply and found some clearance goodies! 
 
Sally Girl nail polishes for only .50 cents and some Sally Girl lip glosses for .50 cents! I just had to pick them up. The nail polishes have no name stickers on them...Im not quite sure what they are called. The lip glosses are Pastel Green, Pastel Yellow, and Pastel Blue. They are smooth, not sticky and leave a pretty tint on the lips! I love them! They smell like vanilla too! lol 

I also picked up some Beauty Secrets Cuticle Oil from Sally's. I love this stuff! I have never really used cuticle oil before but really needed it. It was only 2.50 for the bottle. 

I love the round bottle lol 

Went to Walmart on the same day. And I about screamed when I saw the Pure Ice display. They had TONS of pretty polish! lol I fell in love with 3 of them and couldn't leave without them. 
They are GORGEOUS too. Well worth the 1.97 I paid for each of them! 
From left to right: 
Look My Way (blue and purple glitter)
Ill Behave (small green glitter with chunky silver glitter)
Keep Walking (small and chunky pink glitter)
 I ran home and put two of them on my nails asap! I used the green Sally Girl polish I bought, and a nameless RPro pink polish I had at home. 




So pretty!!! 

I gave my shopping a rest until today when I realized I was out of topcoat...YAY! Normally this wouldn't be a happy moment but it meant I could justify buying another nail product! I ran to the store and stood in the beauty aisle...I finally decided to try out the Seche Vite Top Coat that I have seen everyone raving about...

It DID NOT disappoint!!!! It is by far the best top coat I have ever used! It dries so fast and goes on smoothly! My nails feel rock hard and very solid. I put them to the pet test about 2 minutes after putting on the top coat and it held up! No smudges or pet hair stuck to my nails! They were DRY. I highly recommend Seche Vite!!! lol 

Hope you enjoyed my haul! Look for more pretty polishes and swatches of all of these coming soon!!!!

Cartoon Nails

I have been seeing these nails EVERYWHERE lately! and I am in love with them! I just HAD to try them out for myself! I love they way they look but think next time I need to try to keep the black lines a little thinner. 


Products used: 
Julep Nail polish in the color Hayden
Sally Hansen in the color Lacey Lilac
Art Deco Black Striping Polish
Sally Hansen in the color White On
Ciate Mattnificent Top Coat

These nails were super easy to do. The hardest parts were trying to keep the lines straight. The Ciate top coat made some of the polish crack in some places and I did my best to fix the cracks without taking all my polish off.
I tried putting my Julep top coat on before the Ciate and it helped a little. 


Let me know if you try the Cartoon Nail look out and what you think of it!

10 Day Beauty Challenge Day 10!


Hey! Today is the last day!!! 

One Favorite!


1. Mini Nakie from Kim's Kreations (Vixoden Cosmetics) I got this stack a while ago and use it everyday. With all my makeup looks. Whether I am just using it in the corners of my eyes to make my natural makeup pop, or under my brows as a highlight. I LOVE this stack! It is my most used, all time favorite! It is a bit worn because I keep it in my purse so I am never without it. 

I hope you all enjoyed the 10 Day Beauty Challenge! Come back in October, I am going to be starting a new challenge!!!! I am REALLY excited about this one!!!

Water Droplet Nails

Redid my nails...I tried earlier but fell asleep with the nail polish brush in hand...Majorly messed them up!!! I decided to try out this look. Matte black polish with regular black polish on the top. I used a dotting tool to make the dots.

10 Day Beauty Challenge Day 9

Hey all! Day 9 today!!! 

Two Accessories:

This is probably, in my opinion, the hardest...Especially because I have SO many sentimental jewelry...


1. Number one would have to be this bracelet. I got it on vacation just a little while ago....It is from my favorite spot in the world. My mother met my dad there, and every family trip was spent up there. The last time I was up I met my dad for the first time since I was born and it was magical. I believe one day I will live up in Mackinac. I am always drawn to it and I just feel at home when I am up there. 


2. This ring. Just a simple ring. My cousin gave this to me about 10 years ago and I wear it every single day. It means so much to me and it is my favorite ring!

Honorable mentions:

My dads high school ring. 

My dad sent me to this for Valentine's Day. I found his sister on Facebook, messaged her and asked for his address and sent him and Christmas card. I had just lost hope when on Valentine's Day EXACTLY I got this beautiful bracelet along with an updated picture of my dad. I sat in my living room crying for hours! lol 



My many many charm bracelets. I have hopped onto just about every charm bracelet craze and have enough charms to make about 60 bracelets....I wear these two everyday, along with my Mackinac bracelet above, and the bracelet my dad bought me.  

I have a ton of bracelets and necklaces and buy more all the time...but I hardly ever wear them because I find sentimental accessories better than the latest trends. 

Come back tomorrow for the last day of the challenge!

10 Day Beauty Challenge Day 8


Hello Everyone!!!!!!! Day 8!! Here we go! 

 3 Unused


1. Body Spray...These three. I won a few cards from Victoria's Secret Reward thing about 2 years ago. All together, they totalled 200 dollars...I bought a TON of body spray, washes and lotions...2 years later...These three still have their plastic seals on...The lotions smell amazing so I am not sure why I haven't used them. I just have so many that I haven't gotten around to it!


2. Smashbox Love Me eye shadow pallet. It just sits on display on my bathroom shelf. Never used it. Haven't even swatched the colors! I can't bring myself to use it for some reason! 


3. If you like my Facebook...then you might have seen me post these a while ago. I bought them as a replacement for my four piece brush set I bought when I first started out....But they are just so pretty and white/pink that I just hate the thought of getting them dirty..even if I wash them...I don't think they would ever look like this again. lol 

Maybe I should have one day when I just break the plastic off of one of the sprays, and use my brushes to put on my Love Me shadow. lol Three birds with one stone! 

Come back tomorrow for day 9! Almost done!!

10 Day Beauty Challenge Day 7



Hello everyone!! Today is day 7 of the Beauty Challenge!!! 

Four Used:

Four of my four MOST used beauty products! 



1. Pantene Shampoo and Conditioner! I use this stuff more than anything else...I go through about two bottles of each a month. Sometimes more depending on how much conditioner I use. It is necessary for me to wash my hair every single day because it gets dirty and gross feeling VERY fast because I am CONSTANTLY touching it. I went one day without washing it and the gross feeling stayed through two washes...Soooo washing it once everyday keeps in clean, and it is VERY healthy and shiny! 


2. My Jilbere De Paris flat iron. I use this pretty much EVERY DAY and I LOVE this thing!! I have had it for around 4 years...and I got it from my aunt, who bought a new one and gave me this one. She had it for 3 years before me! It has lasted forever, the cord is very long. It gets hot fast and STAYS hot. All day. I know because I have forgot to turn it off a few times. It cost around 60 dollars when my aunt bought it and as far as I know, it cost the same now. Although, this bronze one is limited edition. They can be bought in black all the time in Sallys Beauty Supply! I HIGHLY recommend them!! It is the BEST straightener I have ever ever ever used! 


3. Lavender Vanilla Sleep lotion from Bath and Body Works. I literally use this lotion every. single. day. Or....I should say NIGHT. lol I use it before I go to bed and it calms me and helps me fall asleep. The scent is extremely soothing. 


4. Nivea A Kiss of Recovery lip balm. This stuff keeps my lips SO soft! I only put it on at bedtime right before I lay down so it can work all night without being disturbed or rubbed off by glasses and such. It is amazing. 

Well, there are just four of my all time most used products!!! I hope you enjoyed!

10 Day Beauty Challenge Day 6


Today is:

Five Tips!

1. When painting nails..cleaning up any edges while the polish is wet is much easier (IMO) than trying to get it off when its dry. I prefer dipping a small nail art brush or paint brush in remover and cleaning up around my nails that way. It gives more control that a Qtip. 

2. Make sure that when you sit down to do your nails that you have time to spare and don't need to use the bathroom, open pop cans, etc. Do all this before starting. I have ruined my nails SO many times by not being prepared. lol 

3. When you apply lip gloss/stick. Stick your index finger in your mouth, close lips around your finger. Twist a bit. Then pull out your finger. It removes any product from the inside of your lips so that it doesn't get on your teeth! Its so easy! 

4. I would also recommend check out sale items in stores. Many stores put makeup on amazing clearance sales!!! Not because the makeup is expired, but because the color is being discontinued or the brand in simply changing packaging and they want to clear out any old packaging! I have found makeup as much as 90% off in some places!!! 

5. To get that perfect cats eye look, place a piece of tape on your face. From the corner of your eye and up at the angle you want your line. Then just follow that up to where you want it and remove the tape! Voila! Perfect lines!!! 

Remember, do not ever get discouraged! Practice makes perfect. I learn new things every day myself and am still trying to perfect nail art! Just keep working at it and don't be afraid to try new things!!!

10 Day Beauty Challenge Day 4


Whoo! Day 4! Here we go!!

Today is:

7 Polishes!!! 


1. My first choice is Abysis by Nabi! It is GORGEOUS! Blue glitter mixed with silver holo glitter! Just glitter galore! Shown above is what it looks like with two coats, and one coat. Its gorgeous either way! 


2. This has quickly become one of my all time favorite polishes. Black Tie Optional from Hard Candy! It creates a paint spatter type look and is amazing over the top of any polish! I like it most over pastel colors myself.


3. I got this in my Spicy Sub. box just a little while ago and fell in love. It is called Shade of Grey by Lusty Lacquers. The pictures do it no justice. It catches the light and just shines beautifully. It has a light glitter look and goes on very smoothly with only one coat! 


4. I decided to group these two together because they are by the same brand and are essentially the same polish in different colors. The left picture is called Mint Choco-chip and the right is Puffo Gelato. I can't stop staring at these polishes! They look amazing under a matte top coat!


5. Lacey Lilac by Sally Hansen. I have become just a little obsessed with this polish. I love the color! Just a gorgeous pastel purple. (also looks awesome under a matte top coat). 


6. Ruby Chrome by Sally Hansen. This is one of my oldest polishes as you may be able to tell by the wear on the bottle. It is pretty much the one that started it all. I got this when I was younger and wore it pretty much everyday.


7. I could NOT get a very good picture of this polish...This is Nubar 2010. It is a clear polish with flakes in it that give off a gorgeous red/orange/yellow/green depending on lighting and the base color under it. Very very pretty!!! 

So that is it I suppose. I left any top/base coats out and kept it to just colored polishes. I mentioned matte top coats a few times above and I highly recommend Ciate's Mattnificent top coat. It dries very fast and gives a silky smooth finish. 


Come back tomorrow for another day of the 10 Day Beauty Challenge and remember to hit like on the sidebar for nail art, makeup and more!!!
