So I forgot to post this, which occurred a few weeks ago. OPP! Went to several craft stores: Hobby Lobby, Joanne's, & Michaels. Also stopped by several other shops as well. My hubs and I went into the shops just to look around. But like always there was some sort of good sale, or a clearance item which caused me to NINJA it! Also ended up picking some polish up as well.
An air shot of all the goodies I ended up getting. I went a bit glitter crazy! Please excuse the bad quality of the pictures. I took them at night.

Nail Polish: Cosmetic Arts (no name)
I have seen Cosmetic Arts products before but I have never picked them up. You could normally find their products at Ross, which is where I have only seen them at. The polish goes for $1.99 a bottle. I suggest if you do head to Ross and you see a shade you want, grab it! Don't think of "I'll wait til next time," because sometimes that item won't be there no more.
Once again there is no name for this shade at all. The owner of Cosmetic Arts are the same owner for Color Club, which is Forsythe Cosmetic Group. Makes sense why there is no name sticker upon it. It would be really helpful if they did have it though.
Within the bottle, it reminded me of a polish that I have seen before, but never grabbed. Since at that time, I didn't think it was something I would want. But like they say "Grab a polish for just incase!"

I cracked and FiS! OH MY!
So over the weekend, I had finally cracked! I have been on a no-buy where I was attempting to finish up some products in order to buy some new ones. But that was getting me no where haha. I went into a drugstore to pick up a colored eyeliner, and instead I ended up buying nail polishes, along with some little goodies my son decided to pick up as well. Gotta love the toss on the counter while mommy is paying! haha no no! My kid isn't like that. He actually asked me if he may get one, and I told him "No, but you could get two."
Okay for the Color Club and Cosmetic Arts nail polishes, I have no clue what the names of it are. So if you have ANY IDEA at all, let me know! Either send me an email or make a comment. I will greatly appreciate it. I'll post swatches of it soon.
As for the New York Color I bought them over at Rite-Aid which is currently on sale for 40% off for this week only (July 15 - 21). Actually it's all the New York Color products at the moment. Which is great! If you're lucky your Rite-Aid could have the $0.50 off coupon for NYC cosmetics. Not to mention $1+up with Rewards card.
So here are the NYC polishes I picked up:

Oh nails, Y U SO SHORT?!
So last week I mentioned in my post I mentioned that I had to cut down my nails. A few have seen these already on my quick shot upon Instagram. I decided to make an actual post of it.
It'll take some time to get use to short nails again, but hopefully they speed up in growth like they normally do.

My July Birchbox!
Birchbox is a wonderful way to try out products from new, and lingering around. They have different subscriptions that you could pick at for your liking. And you may cancel at anytime. It is though a hit and miss. Sometimes you'll get items, or the whole box, that you won't like, and there are other times where you will simply just love what you get. From sample sizes to full sizes. From cosmetics to snacks to perfumes.
Over the weekend I had received my July Birchbox, and I have to say that this was better than the one I have received last month. I was hoping to obtain the Eyeko eyeliner, but it didn't happen. YET I was still happy with what I got.

The cardstock cover on the box I thought looked pretty cool, and could be an inspiration for future products.
Doesn't that box make for a perfect nail gradient scene? Or maybe even drips...WHO KNOWS! Gotta love random inspiration of items.

Double slap those nails! But they're done!
First off I would like to say thank you to all of those who follow or check out my blog. Greatly appreciate it. Second off, if you do my tutorials, or I give you inspiration please note it. So I could check it out. Lately I found two people who actually took my tutorials changed some words in it, but still copied exactly what I did. :( That sort of ticked me off. So like I say "Give credit when due! If someone inspired you to do something, let it be known!" Though there are times when great minds think alike, which in case high five to you! But when it's to a T, yeah...that gets my engines going a bit...
So sorry about that I had to get it off my chest!
Well I have been doing my nails on and off. Just haven't really been taking pictures of it. But they have been done! I'll post two pictures of what I have done lately.

Oh Mail! Oh my! : Influenster Summer Beauty VoxBox
So over the weekend I received my first box from Influenster, which was their summer VoxBox. If you have not heart of Influenster it's basically a site of trendsetters who could share their lifestyles and show off their influence upon items they received. You sign up and basically take surveys, which are their badges. The badges you earn will help them better understand you, and decide what to give you in your personalized box of goodies. Oh and did I mention it's FREE? Yup that's right!
If you qualify for their boxes they will send you an email, that will show you a link in your profile. You have a certain amount of days to fill out the form. So my suggestion once you obtain that email, get at it really fast!
