Okay... Im on Strike!


SoI have a hard time resisting a deal. When I realized I could get some hard to find and semi hard to find polishes for 2-3 dollars a bottle after shipping I jumped on it. Now I am thinking its time to go on a buying strike. Blasphemy I know, but I have a bunch of untried shades and a ton of ideas that I should get out before I go spending anymore cash on nail polish. This could take me a few months, but thats not really such a bad things. My only exception to this is going to be holiday shades and if I happen to stumble across one of my Milani lemmings. A girl has to put her foot down at some point, and besides, I have other things I need to worry about.. like Christmas shopping.

So this was a huge haul. Twenty eight polishes in total. I kinda cringe just admitting that number. I feel guilty as sin saying I bought this many colors in one sitting (okay well twenty seven seeing as how I bought two of one color.. Giveaway spare anyone?). So lets just cut to the chase so I can let you know all of the colors I got here... *big breath*


Left to Right all China Glaze: Doll House, Preppy Pink, Candie, Mahoganie, Blue Hawaiian, Treasure Chest (not pictured because it fell on the floor Electric Lilac)


 Left to Right all China Glaze: C-C-Courage, Ruby Pumps, Dorthy Who?, Good Witch?, Cowardly Lyin' (incase your wondering... yup this is pretty much the whole collection of Wizard of Oh Ahz minus Ten Man)


Left to Right all China Glaze: First Class Ticket, Grape Pop, Outta Bounds, On the Rocks, Turned Up Turquoise


Left to Right all China Glaze: OT, FYI, Japanese Koi (Neon), In the Lime Light, Tarnished and Varnished, Rose Among Thorns (Neon)

Left to Right: China Glaze- Ingrid, China Glaze- Snow, Orly- Prince Charming, Orly- Mirror Mirror

Sighs a relieving breath... that was alot of typing and picking up of bottles. Eee Gads. I got alot of my wants in this haul and even a few things that I am not so I will like but am willing to try. I'm off to finish a novel while snugging some kitties, then do my nails.

So, happy polishing everyone... I now have a huge decision to make, what polishes to try first. Wish me luck on that one!

It's Shiney


Yup got two more packages in the mail to show you guys. One is from Dollarnailart.com and the other from a fellow blogger who was clearing out her stash. Again I have to apologize to my family for all of the bouncing around and squealing. Sorry guys, I cant contain my giddiness when I get new nail stuff.


So first I have to say I was a bit leery about Dollarnailart.com because lets face it, when you spend a dollar on anything anymore you tend to get crap. The dollar store is a case and point. Most of the items in the stores are crap. I wont say everything, but most things are. I myself am a bargain hunter and have found some amazing steals at the dollar store. So I had to give this site a try on the off chance that I could get something great for the price.


They have a 20 dollar minimum order. That is what got me leery ladies and gents... but I gave in and tried it out. Spent more than 20 to be honest. Happily I am not disappointed at all.


Check out all of the goodies here that were just a dollar each. And I got the bottle of adhesive you see here FREE with my purchase of six foils.



Something I have been interested in trying for a long while now are the foils. Look forward to a future post about my ventures in trying them out.

Second package was from fellow beauty blogger War Paint. I feel like I got a steal off her stash clear out. Thanks hun! Love these. A few of these I am setting aside for a future giveaway.


Names from Left to Right: China Glaze- Flip Flop Fantasy, Sinful Colors- Daddy's Girl, Sinful Colors- Green Ocean, China Glaze- For Audrey, Sinful Colors- Irish Green, China Glaze- Frostbite

Also check out the fun candies she sent along with the polishes. Her packaging was so cute... little stickers and everything. Totally made my day!

Happy Polishing.

Im in Polish Heaven

I just got 4 packages in the mail today.... all nailpolish and nail art related. I feel a bit sorry for my family though because they have had to deal with me sqeel, giggle, dance around, ooh and ah over all my new goodies. I was supposed to get one of the packages yesterday but clearly that didnt happen. Hurrah it showed up today.

So since im all being a spaz (hmm wonder where my kids get that from *shifty eyes*) I am going to share my giddiness with YOU!


First row of goodies from Left to right:
CG- Mummy May I, CG- Ick-a-bod-y, CG- Zombie Zest, CG- Re-fresh Mint, CG- L8R G8R, CG- Flying Dragon (Neon), CG- Kiwi Cool-ada, CG- Sun Worshiper


Second Row of goodies from Left to Right:
OPI- Merry Midnight, CG- Techno, CG- Polar Ice, CG- Sour Apple, CG- Snow Globe, CG- Luna, CG- Atlantis, CG- Side Saddle


The front row:
OPI- Halloween Collection: Get In-Spider-ed! This came with the spider ring and the sheet of stickers... to my dismay two of the stickers on the sheet were already peeled off the paper when I got this set. I found them stuck to the inside of the carton. Eh well... I shall have fun with what I got!


The names incase you cant read them:
The Ghostess with the Mostess, Heeeere's Jack, Red-y to Strike, Spiderella

I am sure anyone who has ever bought or somehow gotten an OPI mini set, they know that if you lose the packaging, you lose the names of the polish. Its frustrating as all hell to be honest. So this is how I have solved that isse, I lable them myelf. I dont want to keep boxes all over the place and when I want to know what color I am using or have used I really dont enjoy having to look up names online all the time.


Last but not lease... YAY bundle monster plates. I still have two packages of stuff en-route as well. Ill post info on that stuff when they arrive. For now I am off to eat some dinner and then spend an hour messing with my nails. *Sqeels*
