CAVIAR BEADS REVIEWED BY ME!

BRUCCI NAIL POLISH IN NATALIA

ESSIE POLISH IN MESMERIZED

SINFUL COLORS POLISH IN DREAM ON

BRUCCI POLISH IN DRAMA ( MY FAVE !)

Hello everyone its been a while since my last post.  Really its to (update the post) because I take the pictures regularly, however I get a little side tracked when its time to upload post. So because I know the importance of the female manicure here is my thoughts on the Nail craze  CAVIAR BEAD !  Initially I wanted to purchase mine from SEPHORA, however they were always sold out.  So with that being said I decided to take the cheaper way out and just ordering a variety pack on Amazon from another retailer. When my package of the beads arrived I was excited and immediately started to match up the beads with polishes that I thought matched closest.  As pictured above you can see the end result of that.  At a later date I will upload what my Nails look like and how I thought the caviar look held up.     Stay tuned guys CHEERS!

Duo eye liner stick by NYC

My latest trip to the local Duane Reade was in search of my favorite eyebrow pencil made by Jordana.  I usually purchase it from Walgreens which I know for a fact sells this brand however I'm assuming that they share the same products.  So I walked straight to the make up aisle taking a glimpse of the O.P.I and ESSIE collection that happen to be so few it look like they were giving it away. I started checking brands that I could see carried Eyebrow pencils.  I Came across some that were way to expensive.  $12. 00 & up.  I am use to buying a color of which I love for .99 cents, so anything over that by $3.00  is too much for me.  I came across the brand NYC.  They had brow pencils some of which look similar to my Jordana pencil color.  So I picked up 2 of the possibles and A new Duo eyeliner that carried several variations.  I first wanted the white tip with black on the other end but was worried of the quality of the pencil being it was only 1.99 each.  How ever I purchased a black and copper duo. When I arrived home I immediately went to try this pencil on while my eye makeup was still intact.  I was very please of how easily the pencil glided onto my lower eyelid.  It gave my eyes this subtle pop of amazement.  I give this product 4 STARS.  I will be going back for the white, blue, turquoise, and the pink.


Below you can see what the stick looks like. MUST TRY!!

Sally Hansen



These came from Sephora

I found these in N.C.

One of my favorite

I have been going nuts with these 10 dollar manicures in a box.  I find them to be worth the money.  To get the longest possible use, just like all other polish use a good top coat. Not the .99 cents stuff.  Best O.P.I or ESSIE, Sally Hansen, or even a gel top coat and go under the UV.  They also have a UV gel minus the UV lamp so that should be better for those who do not own their own lamp.  My friend at work also told me that she gets 2 applications out of one pack because she keeps her nails short so I will be doing that from now on.  So go crazy with it and try the most colorful ones.  You wont be sorry.   I give them a 4

Sally Hansen makes these Nail polish press on applications that look really nice on long or short nails.  The application process is very easy and quick.  Any one can do it you don't have to be very handy or steady with your hands to be able to do them.  So far I have tried two and I will try the other fun colors in between doing nails I would like to try. Above you can see the array of styles and colors they come in.  You can get them in most Duane Reade stores, Walgreen's, and other places beauty products are sold.  To me its another way of having professional nails with out the cost and the long wait in the salon.  FIY you may want to invest in a few bottles of OPI top coat to have lasting power.  Pay strong attention to the tip of nail along the nails curve, this is wear it begins to strip first.  Once again I hope this helps you to try some of things things I posted because they are great and I love sharing.  So until next time xoxoxoxox
