Seven Deadly Sins Week 1: Lust

Recently my friend Alice from One Nail to Rule Them All, invited me to join the Seven Deadly Sins Challenge with several other nail gals.  This challenge had a choice of doing it daily, two a week, or once a week.  I decided to do once a week.  For this week the sin was lust, where we had to pick something that we always have wanted to do.

I don't think it was something I have always wanted to do but it was something I have been wanting to do for a while.  It was water spotted nails with turquoise stone nails.  I have wanted to do them ever since I saw Lex from Attacked Astoria Nails do them.  


Ugh let me tell you, I would rather do a water marble nail look than water spotted nail.  It has been just crazy how much polish I wasted trying to get it right.  Oh but it won't stop me from trying it again.  Like they say "Practice makes perfect."   The ring finger color blocking look was inspired by my friend Sarah from Chalkboard Nails.

Review: CUICU Flashing Diamond Powder Eyeshadow (Coffee, Barbie, & Blue Violet)



Today I would like to share with you three CUICU Flashing Diamond Eyeshadows that I received from KKCenterHk for review purposes.  KKCenterHk carries a wide range of products.  To name just a few: nail polish, eyeshadows, blush, nail art decorations, water decals, wigs, and so much more.  You could honestly find yourself lost with all the products that they have.


The shades that I decided to pick were:
CUICU Flashing Diamond Eyeshadows are one of my faves when it comes to single eyeshadows.  The size of the pan, the cost, and not to mention the pigmentation does wonders on a girl who loves eyeshadows.

Review: Tribal Colours Glitter - #13



Today I would like to share with you a Tribal Colours Glitter nail polish in Shade 13.  I received this from BornPrettyStore for review purposes.  I was instantly drawn into Tribal Colour's bottle shape, since it looked different from the usual slender/fatty type of bottles that sit in my nail polish stash.  How the glittered nail polish sat in the bottle just made it more tempting.

Review: tweets:) - ROFL

On the weekend, as I was browsing around Walmart, I noticed they finally placed up the tweets:) nail polishes.  tweets:) nail polish is from the company Tweets Cosmetics, who developed a nail polish that is water-based and supports healthy nail growth.


Tweets Cosmetics decided to name their polishes with short text names, which I think is funny.  You could see the other names on their site: here.


I decided to pick up ROFL (Rolling on the Floor Laughing), since I felt like I needed more orange polishes in my stash.  Not to mention I was drawn into the shimmers that glistened within the bottle.

Review: Polish Addict - In Bloom

Today I would like to share with you an Indie polish, In Bloom, from the Polish Addict company.  Laura and Crystal, the owners of Polish Addict Nail Color, recently had a sale and I wasn't sure what to grab so I just grabbed one which caught my eye the most.


Polish Addict Nail Color was created by Laura since she has a huge passion for nail polish so she wanted to create her own.  Honestly that is the best reason to create your own items.  I am super proud of her that she did, cause her nail polish collection thus far that she created look simply pretty!

Review: Beauty Narcotix - The Ultimate Fix

Ever had those moments where you are doing your nails, you get up to get a snack or drink, and as you reach to grab it BAM you knocked your nails up against something?  Or magical dents or scratches that appear upon your freshly painted nails?  Oh, we cannot forget those moments where our nails make us think that our nail polish is fully dry, go to do something and it totally HAHA in our face!  I have it occur so many times, but now with the help from Beauty Narcotix and their wonderful innovation of The Ultimate Fix I do not have to worry about that anymore!
**This product was received for review purposes, and in no way am I obligated to give this a 100% positive feedback.  This is based upon my own experience with this product.

Beauty Narcotix has been trying to develop The Ultimate Fix since 2008.  Trying to perfect it so that we nail lovers will love it.  Doesn't the bottle remind you of a mousse or hair spray?
