Dollar Tree / Wal-Mart Haul

These are the goodies that I picked up in Pocomoke this past weekend.

This is Revlon Minted. This is I believe 2 coats maybe 3. This is a pretty shade of mint though kinda light for my taste. Application was ok though drying time could have been a little faster.

I absolutely love matte polishes so I hit the jackpot at the dollar tree. They had the old Maybelline mattes.

This gorge beauty is Maybelline Matte Grey. The application was flawless. It only really needs 1 coat but because Im clumsy I did 2.

This is Maybelline Matte Sapphire. I almost didnt get this because I wasnt feeling the color. I changed my mind fast when I realized it was a glittery matte. When matte this really isnt my cup of tea but topcoat this baby  and she just shines like the night sky.

Here is Maybelline City Slick. this is my fave from this haul.(not surprising since grey/pewters are my fave polish color after Purple of course) Great application also a 1 coater.

Maybellines Purple Aluminum has to be the stand out of this outing. I really didnt have high hopes  for this one based on the bottle and boy was I wrong. Looking at the bottle all I saw was straight silver microglitter/shimmer in what I assumed was dark grey polish. I started to reshelve it until I read the name. You guys know Im a sucker for a purple polish. Im glad I kept this one. She isnt gorgeous she is just plain beautiful.

This pretty is Revlon Lilac Pastelle. I couldnt really get her color accurate. She is a touch more purple than these pictures show.

I picked this up earlier last week in Rite-Aid. I went with full intention to purchase Sally Hansen Purple Gala but somehow ended up with Purple Pizzazz because I was rushing and got the names mixed up. She is still pretty though. She has what looks to be mini flakies. Pictures arent color accurate.

So if you have any of these tell me how you like them?

Punched in the Kisser

First off Happy Independence Day everybody. Well sorry for not posting sooner Ive been uber busy and quite tired as of lately. Now down to business this is the fauxnadicure that I did on the 1st. Two coats of Maybelline Papaya Punch over a clear basecoat. The design comes from the bundlemonster image plates and it was stamped with N.Y.C. in White tip. Sorry for the short post havent been feeling really inspired as of lately.

NOTD: Purple Passion infused Love Letters

Well last post i hinted about what an absolutely gorgeous marriage these to polishes make. So I felt you should see it for yourselves. This is 2 coats of N.Y.C.'s Love Letters layered over 2 coats of Maybelline's Purple Passion and topped off with one thin coat of Poshe topcoat. Isnt she a beauty this picture was with no flash just sunlight from my bedroom window. This mani is super cool because Love Letters makes Purple Passion look metallic and gives it holo tendencies. Mere pictures do not describe this because they cant capture the pure essence of this glorious union. This will probably be my two most used polishes this summer because it just screams "Fun in the Sun".  So what do you guys think you, do you own any of these polishes and how do you like them?

Dollar Tree Haul

Well I hit up one of my favorite stores (Dollar Tree) and one that I despise (Wal-Mart). Had to go to Walli-World to pick up the bill money my daddy and step-mommy sent me. God knows I love those guys. Anyways per usual I couldnt go there without stopping thru the cosmetics aisle to see the pretty polishes and make-up. Well I picked up 3 N.Y.C. polishes Big Money Frost, Central Park and Love Letters. Since we missed the bus we went to the Dollar Tree because I wanted to see if they still had those 6-packs of glitter because I wanted some to do some frankening. To my dismay they didnt have any. Now usually I never buy the 2-pack Maybelline polishes there because alot of times they are ugly but not today. Since I saw four that I liked I put them in my basket along with three acrylic paint pallettes. Now why did I have to buy four 2-packs  of polishes because the pretty colors were packaged with ugly colors. So I have Maybelline Express Finish in Mauvin' Metallic, Fucshia Flash, Prismetal Purple, Papaya Punch, Bolt of Blue, Raisin Run, Purple Passion, and Mocha. I especially  love the way Love Letters looks layered over Purple Passion or Fucshia Flash. If anyone has tried any of these how do you like them?
