How i painted my nails for the week & for fall & christmas!

My holiday & fall nails!

This is how i painted my nails this year fir the holidays and for fall and how i painted them last year!

SO Sorry i didnt post the fall one sooner but ive been having ALOT of computer problems!

I painted my nails a nude colors and then used a dotting tool to make leaves using green, a shimmery copper and a reddish copper!

And now my Christmas nails..I did a really simple french manicure and then painted the cord with a black stripper and then used a dotting tool to paint red, green and blue light bulbs!

Blistex Simple & Sensitive Review

I got this on a whim...I saw it and thought i had to have it! I like it! Its not my favorite product but it does the job. Its Hypo-Allergenic and Non-Irritating. It says it hydrates with coco butter, jojoba & sunflower seed oil and it only contains 6 ingredients! It has no flavor, no fragrance and no color! It also has no scent! Ive been using it for about 2 weeks because i stopped using it before i got sick, If you need something that will do the job then this is for you! Its not my favorite ONLY because it has no flavor. It is moisturizing though! So if your looking for something with no scent or fragrance then try to find it! Its not easy for me to find, the only place ive seen this is at my local Winn-Dixie!

I was watching or listening to Hart of Dixie while typing this!

Sorry Ive been MIA its not easy to share a computer and try to keep up with blogging! Im trying my best!

Price: $1.25

One Natural Shea Butter Lip Balms Review

I Love ONE products! I Have A few of them! They are 98.9% Natural 100% Safe for our Planet! I love that fact that the tubs are recyclable! All one products containers are recyclable! I actually have 3 of these lip balms but one ive opened and closed to much the label is messed up so i didnt picture it! I have Lip tune up-Bring those dry chappy lips to life, Shea My Lips-Moisturize those dry tired lips, and Berry Delicious-for sweet kissable lips! My favorite is Lip tune up and the least favorite is Shea my lips because it tastes like soap! They are 0.36 oz each. They are really good, not what I expected from a Natural Lip Balm! They are very moisturizing and buttery! I want to try the Coco- Coconut & Honey Cream but i cant find those two! Out of the 3 I have the Berry Delicious tastes the best, I Love the taste of it!

Sinful Colors Nirvana Review

I love this color. I stumbled across it 1 month ago but didn't think I would ever wear it. So this was an impulse buy. I held Nirvana and O.P.I You Dont Know Jacques up next to each other and in the bottle they look identical! China Glaze Foie Gras looks really similar as well. I also looked at other peoples swatches and they of both look exactly the same! I painted my nails with it and it dries the slightest bit darker than in the bottle but like i said I LOVE IT! My sister said it looks like the Starbucks Toasted Marshmallow hot chocolate we just bought! She was right! I have really think almost paper thin nails and they are VERY flexible and this didn't chip or peel which i have a huge problem with! This also dries insanely fast which was a huge plus! It applys really smooth with no streaks!

Price: $1.99

I hope everyone had a great Halloween, I hope everyone stayed safe!

I had a horrible halloween, i didnt dress up but thats not my thing anyways! I dont watch scary movies and had NO trick or treaters! The main reason there werent any kids around is because my "community" yes where i live isnt even big enough to be a town.... but its very unsafe here so i stayed in!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN EVERYONE

Hope everyone has a great halloween but remember to be careful!

BLK Water Review

I was walking through my local Winn-Dixie and walked past this and at first i ignored and but i went back a week later and decided i had to see what it was! Its Black Water! NO really it is! Its called BLK. Its an Alkaline Fulvic Trace Infused water..which makes it naturally  black. So i bought it for $2.99! I was terrified to drink it, i thought omg im gonna get sick or its going to taste gross until all the employees at the grocery store said they tried it and they lived! I tried and to my surprise it doesnt taste like anything at all...it tastes like water! I just tried  it at first still afraid to drink it but i lived! I also found a hidden message on the bottle! If you tilt the bottle ater you have drank a little of water its actually brown......If you cant find it in your grocery store you can purchase it from amazon.com!

You can read for yourself about this water at blkbeverages.com/ 

P.S. You can click on my pictures to make then HUGE and you can actually read the sides of the bottle as well!

Sinful Colors Green Ocean Review

This is sinful colors most sought after polish. It only comes out for St.Patrick's Day! You can find it on eBay but they are WAY over priced! I Love this polish..actually its a topcoat! It has green flakies with tiny pieces of round glitter in the same color as the flakies and its all suspended in a green gel! This is a "Jelly" type base! You can pair this with A LOT of colors, you can try to wear it on its own but I don't like it! The green base can be seen on bare nails! Around St.Patricks Day you can find this polish for $1.99 on ebay its selling for $12 or more! Great up close photos below where you can see the color for yourself...Click on them to make then FULL sized!

Revlon Nail Art Moon Candy Nail Polish Duo Review

Today I discovered A Product from Revlon called Moon Candy....It says its a nail art product! I don't think this is a nail art product. I Love this the only thing i HATE is the price! My duo is on Supernova, Its a dark creme grey on 1 end label #1 and a clear topcoat with pink ice chips aka fake flakies on the other #2. So if you haven't figured this out you paint your nails the grey color first and let fully dry then paint on the ice chips! I don't think this is worth the money but i got mine on sale. You can buy the exact same color of grey polish from Maybelline Color Show in Impeccable Greys which i love and buy ice chips online in ANY color pretty cheap. You can find Ice Chips from DollarNailArt.com under the glitter tab for $1.00! So i can recreate this exact product for 4 dollars and get A LOT more product! Both sides of this duo are 0.26 FL. Oz.. total!  There are more photos & swatches at the end!

Worth the price NO because your not getting a lot of product! Its regularly $7.99, I got mine on clearance at target for $5.42 plus i had a dollar off coupon! Also like i said above can EASILY be recreated!

NYC Manhattan #248 Nail Polish Review

                          NYC In a New York Minute Manhattan Nail Polish

This is a deep burgandy color with purple undertones. It is a new addition to NYC's In A New York Minute line. This is the perfect dark vampy color. This has a plumy dark purple undertone to it! This is a cream finish. I LOVE cream  finishes. Some call this an Oxblood color...thats kinda gross! This is another perfect fall color. I would wear this even on christmas! I LOVE anything to do with fall! What about you? What your favorite season? The downside i had with this polish, like alot of polishes these days is the TINY brush! Bieng that the brush is small and this polish start to fast it can be difficult to work with. I kelp getting streaks and If I lef tto much polish in the brush it would start to drag the polish and make a wave effect of my nails. Other than that i LOVE this color and It was only 1.99! I Love cheap, good quality polish!

Sally Hansen Diamond Strength Nail Polish Review

Sally Hansen Diamond Strength Nail Polish in Save The Date

I think I just discovered my PERFECT fall nail polish, Save the date is perfect for fall. I love the shape of this bottle. The sides are faceted like a gemstone! This color is a deep red/plum color in the sun it has extremely tiny blue and silver shimmer. This formula is really hard to work with for me because its very watery. It took me 3 to 4 coats to get the opacity i wanted. This is also extremely hard to photograph...for a while i didn't think i could. This actually will tie in very well with the Berry color trend for fall! I love it and would repurchase it.

Price:$5-6..I paid 5 but it varies by store

Available in Kmart,Target,Walmart, Ebay, Amazon, and other mass drugstores

Sinful Colors Super Nova Nail Polish Review

Sinful Colors Super Nova from The Hot Flash Collection

This is a rose gold nail polish with silver micro shimmer. You can see the silver in the bottle and when you have your hands in the sun, Its gorgeous in the sun. Other that you cant see the silver! The only thing i can compare this to is Orly Rage. I love this polish. At first i thought this was a true rose gold color which i didn't think would look good on my really yellow very tan skin but it has silver micro shimmer that you can only see in the sun, and this polish sparkles in the sun but indoors at certain angles it has a gold undertone...I Love it!! It can be opaque in 1 coat if applied heavily but it tends to leave spot on my nails uncovered sometimes but i think that's the brush, which isn't a big deal for me since i always do 2 coats no matter what! It goes on smooth and the best part of this is was only $1.99! I could never afford the other rose gold nail polishes all the YouTube beauty gurus talked about!

Bath & Body Works Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin Candle Review

Bath & Body Works Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin Candle

A harvest fave returns for fall! Our delicious, one-of-a-kind recipe combines sweet pumpkin pie, rich vanilla cream and a touch of cinnamon.

I dont know where to begin. This smell like heaven to me. This is a very foody type scent. If you like your house to smell like baked goods and things you'll love this! It reminds me so much of my grandmas pumpkin pie she used to make! Shes still alive and i love her to death but her pies are a pain to make! When i smell this candle you get pumpkin pie and cinnamon right off the bat but if you inhale the scent i mean really smell it like taking a deep breath you will smell vanilla ice cream! Hopefull you can smell vanilla, I can oddly sort out the different notes in fragrances! It reminds me of thanksgiving. I don't like this scent in the soap or lotion because it didnt smell at all, there was no scent to the lotion! I like it in the scent portable and the oil! LONG story short if you love pumpkin pie you will love this candle! Its a fall must have!

Price:$3.50

Maybelline Color Show Nail Polish "Styled Out" Review

Maybelline Color Show Nail Polish in Styled Out

I got this polish when the Color Show collection first came out! This color is supposed to resemble dark wash denim! I love this nail polish. I want more. They are amazing quality. Styled out drys even darker on the nails! It has silver shimmer in it. The bottle costs $2.99 for .23 fl OZ when a normal bottle is .5 fl OZ....So thats a little disappointing! It goes on SUPER shiny then drys to a satin finish and it drys darker than what you see in bottle!. I wouldnt repurchase this exact color because its to dark for my taste but I love the rest of the line!

Price-$2.99
Available at Target, Walmart, Walgreens and most Mass Drugstores!

Sinful Colors "Sinfully Magentic" Nail Polish Review

Sinful Colors Sinfully Magnetic Nail Polish in Polar Opposites

In the photo above this is what the bottle looks like as a whole! Not very appealing but still eye catching. Polar Opposites is grey with blue micro shimmer. Sometimes its purple specially indoors in a poorly lit house but its really hard to notice! Its opaque in 1 coat. 1 of the downsides to this is if the wind is blowing outside or you have the ceiling fan on..There cant be any air blowing.... the magnet wont work. I have to paint my nails when the wind isnt blowing. The directions say 2 coats but thats a waste! The magnet creates the starburst effect show below! 

In the photo above i held the magnet up to the bottle to give you the full effect! If you find this product detach the magnet from the cap just twist the magnet off..Its supposed to be glued on but its impossible to use when its still attached to the cap...you will paint your hand and its a mess! The magnet looks like an oversized ring and hold it to the bottle because the picture on the tag doesnt read true neither do the display photos. I recommend holding the magnet to the bottle before buying! 

 This is Polar Opposites on my nails! The only downside to the product is that it doesn't seem to dry very fast to try not put to much on!

Price-$4.99

Bath and Body Works Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin Lotion

Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin Mini Body Lotion Review

 Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin fragrance is a cozy blend of freshly-sliced pumpkin, crisp apple and spiced vanilla!

 I went to Bath & Body Works yesterday for a fall event, which was INSANE. My local B&BW's is not big enough for those events! Mainly to get the free candle they were giving away! I walked past this and smelled in candle form and I fell in love! It is supposed to smell like pumpkin pie and vanilla ice cream. Mine doesn't and im not sure why, I tried it on my skin and it doesn't have a smell at all. The lid on the bottle smell like it though! That makes me really sad! Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin is B&BW's best selling scent for fall! Maybe its just mine........

Dr.Bronner's Magic All-One Organic Lip Balm Review

Dr.Bronner's Magic "All-One" Organic Lip Balm(Peppermint)

This is hands down my FAVORITE lip balm! This is the most moisturizing balm Ive ever use and i have used a lot of lip balms. I own about 25 right now! Its not an overpower peppermint smell or taste. This product is USDA Organic and is not tested on animals! I also have Naked, which has no scent or flavor and its not as moisturizing as this one. My entire family LOVES these lip balms so much so that my stash of them is disappearing! I don't mind sharing!

The two things that drew me to this product is that its certified organic and isnt tested on animals!

Other Flavors Include - Naked, Orange Ginger, & Lemon Lime

Price-$2.99

Available at Target & drbronner.com

INGREDIENTS:
Organic Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil, Organic Persea Gratissima (Avocado) Oil, Organic Beeswax, Organic Cannabis Sativa (Hemp) Seed Oil, Organic Mentha Peperita (Peppermint) Oil, Tocopherol

Bath & Body Works Concetrated Room Spray Review

 Autumn Concentrated Room Spray

Overview - Get festive this fall with our heartwarming fragrance that unites the beloved, autumnal scents of dark pomegranate, sweet red apple and woodsy fir balsam.

I Love this scent! I don't smell apple at all, I only smell Pomegranate and Balsam. Its reminds me of Midnight Pomegranate. I think the owl wrapping on the bottle is adorable! I was really excited to use this...until I sprayed it! It says in 2 quick burst of amazing long lasting fragrance. I warn you It will not spray the first time you press the nozzle..i learned the hard way and sprayed a little to much the second time I pressed the nozzle. When it says its concentrated its not kidding, this is a very strongly scented product. The website says that there is over 400 hours of scent in each little bottle! 

The only problem i had with this product is the strength of the scent, my room is small and the scent was over powering, so much so that the back of my throat started to get irritated and I almost started coughing! I had to open the windows. I felt like inhaled smoke! So be very careful. If you have a small home i wouldn't recommend spraying twice like the directions say! All that aside I love it and I would buy more!

Blistex Moisture Melt LipBalm Review

Blistex Moisture Melt

I found this product by accident today and had to try it. I am a chapstick junkie so i couldn't  resist. I've been using it all day and I do not like it! The packaging says Long-Lasting Hydration, Melting Beads of Aloe & Shea Butter. This is very drying on my lips and you get maybe 1 bead per application. My lips felt smooth and not flaky but very dry, even drier than before I used it! The beads are supposed to dissolve into lips for a moisturizing boost. My sister said after using the product her lips felt numb like she used a lip plumper and was super sticky like she ate a lollipop! I've never noticed this before on any lipbalm or chapstick with SPF but the back of the package says this product is only proven to prevent sunburn, NOT skin cancer or skin aging....Last time i checked you put on sunscreen to prevent skin cancer and premature aging. 

Price - $1.59
