Summer Lovin'

Hello lovelies!!

My mom just told me today that she, my dad and myself are going to the east coast for the first two weeks of July!! I have to start saving for this trip so I can buy a kazillion things while I travel. We're going to Kentucky to see my dad's friends so I want to get some southern-ish things while I'm there, Cincinnati to see my aunt and brother, Ithaca to see another one of my dad's friends (so I'm obviously going to ask my parents if we can go to New York City because I've never been and I really want to!!), and then Pennsylvania to see my grandpa with a few other stops along the way I'm sure. I really want to go to a Sephora in each place we go to see the differences between stores and whatnot. Haha.

I'm so excited for the new limited edition Wet 'n Wild Spring Forward eyeshadow palettes! Nude Awakening in particular. Such pretty shades and with all Wet 'n Wild shadows such amazing pigmentation!! At only $5.00 they are such a bargain. Love Wet 'n Wild and love their eyeshadows.

Also, I have put together a Need To Buy list for myself and I thought that I'd share it with ya'll.

Need To Buy:
1. BH Cosmetics Party Girl Eyeshadow Palette
2. BH Cosmetics Day & Night Eyeshadow Palette
3. BH Cosmetics 10 Color Blush Palette
4. BH Cosmetics Contour & Blush palette
5. Sleek Cosmetics Face Form in Fair
6. Sleek Cosmetics Molten Metal Cream Eyeshadow Duo in Gold Leaf & Pewter
7. Tarte Smooth Operator Amazonian Clay Waterproof Concealer

That's it guys!! I don't know if anybody actually reads my posts, but if you do then I love you!!!

It's That Time Again...A Haul!!!

Hey lovelies!

I have a haul for you guys! I went to Target, Walgreens, CVS and Forever 21. :) Let's break it down by store shall we?

Forever 21:
-black pencil skirt (I've been looking for a skirt like this for at least a year)
-gold anchor stud earrings
-gold and navy enamel anchor stud earrings

Target:
-Sonia Kashuk "Brilliantly Bold" 2 hair brush set (they were calling my name and they didn't have a price so I just took the plunge because there is a normal sized brush and a smaller, more purse sized brush)
-Rimmel Lash Accelerator mascara
-2 travel packs of Hello Kitty bandages
-Hello Panda chocolate filled cookies (these bitches are delicious!)
-peach floral zip up wallet (can I just tell you it's so Spring!!!)
-2 mini rolls of red-orange chevron print duct tape (so cute!! I'm going to use it to spruce up my nail polish board I made last month)

Walgreens:
-L'Oreal True Match Liquid Foundation in Soft Ivory (got this because it's nguerriero19's favorite foundation)
-L'Oreal Crayon Concealer Pencil in Fair/Light Neutral
-Wet 'n Wild Color Icon Bronzer in Reserve My Cabana (emilynoel83 talked about it in a recent video so I obviously had to pick it up! Also, I'm using it as a highlighter because it's so light in color.)

CVS:
-Maybelline Color Whispers in Pin Up Peach and Pink Possibilities
-Maybelline Color Sensational Vivids in Neon Red and Vibrant Mandarin
-Rimmel ScandalEYES Waterproof Eyeliner in Nude (it has been SUCH a struggle trying to find this damn eyeliner! I bought the Tarte EmphasEYES Inner Rim Brightener because I couldn't find the Rimmel one so now I have both, eh. I'm okay with it.)

That is the extent of my haulage my darlinks!! I have a few more purchases in mind so be on the lookout for those in the coming months. They will include Sephora, Ulta, BH Cosmetics and Sleek Cosmetics! :)

Let's Review My Review

Hello lovelies!

The other day I talked about the Kiss press on nails and since then I've learned a few things. First off, that damn glue that's included in the kit is awful! Seriously, I had them on for maybe an hour when I rubbed my boyfriend's back. It was light, not even using my nails and at least three nails popped off. I was very dissatisfied at that point, but when I went to CVS to pick up a few makeup items I found myself in the nail care section and I found this awesome nail glue! It's the Nailene Super Glue for nails and it is freaking amazing. As I've said I work at McDonalds and some times I have to close lobby which means using my nails a lot, but my nails didn't budge except for my left thumb nail when I bashed it into the shake machine which hurt like no other. The nail didn't break, it just popped off and I applied a little more glue and it's been going strong for 3 days with no other complications. I think I may have found the perfect recipe for really strong and good looking press on nails!! I'll include a picture of what I did with them.



So cute right?! I even liked them when they just had the white french tip going on. I must say that I'm quite proud of the Valentine's nails I did though. :)

Just thought I'd give ya'll a little update about my fake nail plight. Haha.

Talk to you lovers later!!

Review Time!




Hello lovelies! I have a review for you today. It's the Kiss Everlasting French press on nails in the real short length. The application was pretty easy and I'm saying that because I had to put them on without the instructions since I had thrown away the packaging. It was fairly straight forward, put glue on your nail bed and the fake nail, line up the fake nail with your cuticle and press down for 30 seconds to make sure the glue adhered properly, then fold the tab down and then back up to detach said tab from nail, and file nails til smooth. I did all that and I thought it was all gravy.

To be honest, the glue that comes with the little nail kit is complete shit. I had my nails on for maybe two hours before three of them popped off. I'm going to Sally's this week to buy better glue and then I'll update this review, but as it stands now I do not think these were worth the $5.99 I spent at Target. Unfortunate fact, but true.

I'll check back with you in a few days.
