Current Hauls...

 I have a few things to post about today... well night actually lol. For those of you that don't know CVS is have a huge cosmetics sale. You can find the master list @ Nouveau Cheap's Blog I went to a couple different ones and this is what I got...

 L to R: Hot Magenta, Crushed, Purple Potion Blue It, Plum Power, Flirt, Ivy League, Gunmetal, Caribbean Coral, Going Green, and Cherry Red... I think they came out to $0.79 each.

I can't remember the name of the Confetti polishes off hand, but I will try and look and update this later if anyone wanted to know. They were $0.49 each. The Sally Hansen Salon effects were $2.50 so I decided I'd give them a try... just not sure when lol. I got the nail stickers for under $1.00 each (2 of them are the same) and then I got 2 lip glosses from Wet N Wild because I like lip glosses and glitter :) I think total for everything was under $20... Not a bad deal at all :)

This past weekend I went to 7 Mile Fair again to pick up some more Kleancolor polishes. They have almost every color between the dozen of people that sell them. I went a bit crazy lol. I ended up buying about 30 bottles of polish... but in my defense they were only $1 each :).... ok ok I'm an addict and I have a problem, but admitting I have a problem is the first step, so really it's not that big of a problem.... well in my head anyways lol........ANYWAYS... here's my new pretties. IF you enlarge the pictures you can see the names... I'm to lazy to type them all today lol, sorry.

 The Pebble Beach colors are: Emerald Step 3, and Ruby Step 4

I also went to Ulta a week or two ago because I saw that they had 2 China Glaze polishes for the holiday so I HAD to get them :) and they were Buy 2 Get 1 Free :)

 I've heard that "Ultamate Holiday" is an Ulta Exclusive so I wanted to get it before it sold out. I also wanted "Fireside Glow" because it, like "Ultamate Holiday", and super pretty and sparkly!!! I guess they are kinda Holos... but I'm not positive on what to call them other then AWESOME!!! I got "Ruby pumps as my free one since I've been wanting it and it's always sold out when I'm actually looking for it. I just happened to find it sitting on another shelf. I also bought Orly "It's ot Rocket Science" I've been told that it is a dupe for "Zombie Zest" which I do own, but I love green so I wanted them both :) I'll have to do my own comparison of them. There are a few others I'd like to do comparisons on too... one day I'll get to it lol.

Lastly, I'm not a big perfume person, I normally go for body sprays. I was a  Wal-Mart the other day and  a box caught my attention, this box:

 The back of the box..

I decided to see what it smelt like so I was glad to see a tester. At first I wasn't sure how I felt about it, but after walking around for a bit and smelling it on my jacket that I accidently sprayed lol I really like it. I also like how the little travel bottle looks like a vial of blood lol.

Here is the description on the parfum from the website:

A spellbinding top note of luscious fruits and flowers lurks with desire. Velvet petals saturate the heart with their seductive powers. Finally, an intoxicating creaminess intensifies her charm and lingers with its warmth, like a soft breath on her skin.

Be intrigued by its delicious allure, as tempting and mysterious as she. Be lost in her spell.

I must say I really like this parfum. My mom even liked it lol, and so did some of the women she works with (she made them smell it :)

Well I think that's it for tonight. Please leave any questions or comments below. Let me know if there are any colors from this post that you would like to see swatched. As always, thanks for reading!!! :)

My awesome Dollar Store Find!!!

I went to the Dollar Store today during lunch because I needed to get some cookies :) As always I like to look around and see what they have. Well I was walking down an aisle and just happened to look down at a box on the floor and noticed the little packages looked fimiliar, so I took a closer look....

It was a box of Sally Hansen Color Quick Chrome polish pens!!!! I've heard these are great for stamping but I never wanted to spend the $7-$8 they are always priced. For $1 each I couldn't pass it up so I grabbed a few. I think I got at least one of each color and then a double of ones I figured I use more. This is what I picked up:

These were the only colors they had. I'm going to check the one by my house after work.

Has anyone else been able to find these at the dollar store? Are you going to try and look for them? Please leave any questions/comments below, and thanks for reading my blog! :)

Busy Weekend!!

So I promised to get up some swatches from the Pure Ice holiday collection so here are 2 of the 5 I bought.

First up it the purple one named "Bedtime"

 This is such a pretty purple and it is very vibrant. It stands out a lot. I really liked how it turned out. The polish went on great, but it was a bit sheer so it took 3 coats for full opacity. This was my first time trying to do my nails and leaving a gap by the cuticles so it isn't super clean.

 I kinda looks like there is glitter in the picture, but there isn't, it did have a beautiful shimmer in it though. If you like purples you will love this color. I have a few purples but I don't think I have anything close to this exact color. It's so much prettier on the nail and in person then it is in the bottle or in pictures.

The polish came off super easy with acetone, which is what I normally use.

The next color is the gold named "Bite Me"... first off I love the name lol... and it has nothing to do with the holidays but it's still an awesome name... anyways..

 I love this gold. I think it is the prettiest gold that I have. It almost looks like a foil but it isn't.

It shines so much. I just love it... and since I can never leave good enough alone....

 I did 1 coat of Nicole by O.P.I. "Make a Comet-ment" I just loved the extra flash of colors it gave off.

 This one is a little blurry so you can see all of the pretty colors :)

This is pretty close to what it looks like IRL.

Tomorrow I will post the red polish named "Super Star" and my creative and cheap solution to my polish storage issue. If you have any questions or comments please do so below. Thanks for reading!!!

Pure Ice Holiday Collection

I was at Walgreens yesterday and I saw that Pure Ice has their holiday collection out.

I'm really surprized at how nice the picture came out since I took it on my phone lol.... anyways... The colors are so pretty. I bought 5 of them last night, I got the gold (3rd from the left), green (5th), purple (6th), blue (7th), and the dark red (10th) and I will be posting a review on those colors during the next few days.

I also saw that Sally Hansen has a couple holiday sets out.

I didn't look at the name of the colors because now of them really interested me but I did take pictures. There are 4 sets and each set had two color polishes and one clear coat.

Do you plan on getting any of the Pure Ice or Sally Hansen collections? Have you seen these in your area?
