I Love Shopping....CVS

2011-10-05T00:30:00.000-04:00

I have been MIA for the few of you (hopefully) that read this blog! I have been painting my house instead of my nails! Anyway, I shop A LOT, but most of my stuff I get highly discounted or FREE! I'm going to show you my latest CVS trip and tell you how I did.

First purchase was 1 Dove shampoo and 1 Dove conditioner on sale 2/6, I used the magical CVS ECB scanner and got my $5 CVS Beautyclub Rewards, so my total out of pocket was $1.08!

Second purchase was Garnier Fructis, which is on sale at CVS this week 5/15, I used 5 $1 off coupons and $10 ECB from previous trips; total out of pocket was .93, but it gets better I received $5 back in ECB, pretty much being paid $4 to buy 5 products!

The total savings on my receipts are $29! I love CVS, their Extra Care Bucks and coupon policy is amazing, I walk out of there quite often with a bag full of beauty products paying little or close to nothing all the time. Check out the sale ads and give saving money and getting the products you want a try!

More Revlon (Deborah Lippmann Dupes)

2011-09-21T03:24:00.000-04:00

I finally spotted Blue Mosaic (Across the Universe dupe) and Facets of Fuchsia (Bad Romance dupe). I have seen many other blogs saying that they are very similar, I cannot say for sure because I don't own either of the Lippmann's, but I can tell you both colors look gorgeous in the bottles. I can't wait to try them out and at $2.74 a piece from Target opposed to $18 from Lippmann, I am very happy with my purchase!

Manicure of the Day

2011-09-16T02:01:00.000-04:00

Today I am wearing Girly and Carbonite (Chanel Graphite dupe) for an accent. Girly is a very pretty light shimmery purple, I don't know how well it goes with my skin tone, but I still like the color.

Free Samples from Walmart

2011-09-05T23:24:00.000-04:00

Hello everyone! I received a nice little sample box from Walmart containing three good sized Suave samples. Suave Professionals Dry Shampoo(.8 OZ), I am really excited to get this one, I have been wanting to try their dry shampoo and now I can. According to the back it's supposed to prevent your roots from being greasy between shampoos. Suave Men Body Wash in Refreshing(2 FL OZ), this one will be going to the husband, maybe I can get him to do a review! LOL Lastly, Suave Naturals Body Lotion in Sweet Pea & Violet(2 FL OZ), it smells very nice! The box also contained three $1 coupons when you buy two of each of the featured products.

I'm not really sure how Walmart decides on what products to feature and when they put up new samples, so please check the site often. I have received some really nice samples in addition to this one.

Manicure of the Day

2011-09-03T22:47:00.000-04:00

Happy Labor Day weekend, I hope you're enjoying yourselves! I am currently wearing Essie Smooth Sailing and Sally Hansen Twinkle Twinkle on my ring finger for an accent. Smooth Sailing is a pretty, dark periwinkleish color, I love it. If you happen by my 'little world' here, please feel free to follow and invite your friends. I would really like to have more readers, sometimes I feel like I am talking to myself! LOL

Sally Hansen Nail Prisms

2011-09-01T01:10:00.000-04:00

I looked into my stash feeling very bored with everything I have purchased recently so I went for a back in the day DUOCHROME! Sally Hansen's Nail Prisms in Emerald Amethyst, which flashes purple and green depending on how you look at it. As you all know this type of polish is hard to come by these days. One thing I can say for the newer polishes, the dry time has improved drastically. While the Nail Prisms are gorgeous to look at, it took FOREVER to dry even though I had Seche Vite on top, I ended up with a few dents. :( Oh well, the color changing flashes makes it worth it from time to time.

Pixel Polish

2011-08-26T01:28:00.000-04:00

I tried out two of the three Pixel polishes I bought yesterday. They are both pretty, but the purple was very sheer, I used four coats.

ULTA Haul

2011-08-25T00:14:00.000-04:00

Heeelllloooo....is anyone out there?! LOL I bought a few things from ULTA today that I'd like to share with you. First up are two China Glaze crackle polishes in Oxidized Aqua and Latticed Lilac, these are both the metallic finish, I put the purple over the last manicure I posted, it does not crack as much as the creme crackles that they have. Next I got some things from Essence (LOVE), lipstick in Creamy Nude, Look at Me! and stay with me gloss in Me and My Ice Cream. Rimmel Kiss and Stay gloss in Sunset Mauve, I got that for .99, it was on clearance for $1.99 and I had a $1 off coupon. ULTA now carries Pixel polish and I purchased three of them in , this is my first purchase of this brand and my first time trying them. One last thing I got was ULTA salon finish lacquer in Army of 1. I hope you enjoyed my haul and please let me know if you would like more information on any of these products. :)

Mini Haul

2011-08-22T23:52:00.000-04:00

I have a few things to show you today. I went to a different Rite Aid to look for the new Wet n Wild polishes, but no luck, I still can't find them in my area! For those of you still looking for the limited edition Dream Weavers eye shadow collections, you're in luck, they have a FULL display at the Rite Aid at Pearl and Ridge (Parma, OH). I picked up the Wet n Wild Fastdry polishes in Sagreena the Teenage Witch and Hanna Pinktana for 40% off ($1.19). I also bought two Jesse's Girl polishes in Confetti and Firefly, unfortunately once I got home I realized I already have Confetti, at least they were BOGO 1/2 off. I'd love to give it away, so if you want it leave a comment telling me why you want it and follow my site. :) Lastly I bought Wet n Wild Kohl Eyeliner in Charcoal and a Mega Eyes defining marker in Blackest Black. I hope you liked my mini haul from Rite Aid. Don't forget at Rite Aid this week all Wet n Wild products $1.99 and over are on sale for 40% off, most of the products that are usually .99 are on sale for .69 and Jesse's Girl is BOGO 1/2 off.

Maybelline Express Finish Cool Couture and Be Scene in Green

2011-08-22T03:13:00.000-04:00

So I went to Rite Aid and spotted the new limited edition fall polishes from Maybelline. I was a little hesitant because my experience has been hit or miss lately with this brand, but I am happy to say that they both are AMAZING, they glide on easily and are opaque in two coats. I think I will be going back for the mauve color too!

New Blushes

2011-08-18T15:42:00.000-04:00

In the past couple of weeks I have purchased quite a few new blushes, most of them were on clearance for at least 50% off, I hardly ever pay full price for anything. I am posting package shots right now, but plan on doing swatches for them a little bit later.

Milani Minerals Blush in the highly coveted Luminous, I got this on sale at CVS.

NYC Cheek Glow in Cherry Blossom. I paid .75 for it at Rite Aid!

Jane. shimmering blush in Wisteria, I got this for 50% off at Rite Aid.

Maybelline Fit Me blush in Pink Pop (limited edition), I bought this at Rite Aid on clearance for $2.61.

Maybelline Fit Me blush in Sweet Melon (limited edition), also at Rite Aid for $2.61.

Wet n Wild Ultimate Minerals blush in Pinched Pink, this was from CVS for 50% off.

So be on the look out for the swatches later.

OPI Mermaid's Tears, Revlon Top Speed Modern Grace and Sally Hansen's Xtreme Wear Twinkle, Twinkle

2011-08-16T00:17:00.000-04:00

Today's manicure is OPI Mermaid's Tears with Revlon Modern Grace and Twinkle, Twinkle on my ring fingers for accent nails. Mermaid's Tears has been a constant go to for me this summer, I just love it, it goes on the nail so smooth, I used three thin coats in my pics. Revlon's Modern Grace is almost a one coater and I topped it off with Sally Hansen's Twinkle, Twinkle. As always I used Seche Vite base coat and top coat.

Current Manicure: OPI Serena Glam Slam; Grape...Set...Match and Servin' Up Sparkle

2011-08-14T00:21:00.000-04:00

Ok, so this manicure is almost a week old and I should be embarrassed to even post it, but it's so pretty. I used Seche Vite Clear Crystal Base Coat, two coats of Grape...Set...Match, two coats of Servin' Up Sparkle on my ring fingers for an accent nail, all with Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat. Whoo...that was a lot, but seriously it was worth it, I love the way it turned out. The Grape...Set...Match went on flawless and was opaque in two coats. The Servin' Up Sparkle is sheer, but can be built up with multiple coats. I definitely think you should try them out.

I took this blurry so you can see the gorgeous sparkles! :)

Nail Glue

2011-08-14T00:05:00.000-04:00

So sorry this picture is blurry. :(

Hello everyone, I hope everyone has enjoyed their Saturday! I spent mine washing clothes, how exciting! Anyway, this is a quick little post telling you about one of my favorite things. How annoying is it when you are growing your nails out and one cracks? Well, it makes me angry, so I use Kiss Everlasting nail glue and it keeps me from having to cut or file my nails down because it really does save your nails. I've had some pretty bad cracks and I just use a little of the glue on the back and front on the nail, it dries within seconds and removes with acetone. So if you need a nail repair, check it out!
