Today's Nail Haul....problem?...what problem?

I have not done a "Nail Haul" photo in a long, long time!

So here is the damage from today!

Top to Bottom:

L'Oreal "Miss Candy Gellies"- Limited Edition (Rite Aid drugstore)

Julie G "Frosted Gumdrops" Textured Polish (Rite Aid drugstore)

Zoya "Irresistable Collection" Summer 2013 (Zoya.com)

Zoya "Stunning Collection" Summer 2013 (Zoya.com)

Yeah, my weekend is going to be busy!

Latest "Nail Mail" from Europe...

Of course I love receiving "Nail Mail", but what's even better is "Nail Mail" from the UK...

 Barry M Gelly's: Left to Right: blackberry, (blue) plum, watermelon, blueberry, prickly pear, satsuma, grapefruit. Thanks to my European "hook-up" for grabbing these beauties for me :)

Aren't the names yummy? I saw them on this blog Brit Nails, sand I knew I had to have them!

Barry M Gelly Nail Effects are "Hi shine Gel effect Nail Paint provides an extra glossy finish".  I got all of the colors in the collection except for "Blood Orange", and "Pomegranate". :) 

The polish is rumored to last longer than regular polish and not lose it's shine (think Shellac). I'll have to test it out and see. Swatches will be coming soon :)

Keep it Sweet!

More Swap and Haul Pics...

April over at Concrete and Nail Polish, set up a great shop called Medusa's Threads, selling fashion and polish ( 2 of a girl's favorite things), she still has some of these great colors up for sale, at a very reasonable price ( my opinion), Go HERE

I grabbed "Rica" and "Reva" from the sunshine collection ( I should have grabbed "Faye" too) and then "Phoebe" from the Mod Matte Collection ( I need to get the other 2, too) :)

My Holiday Nail Loot....

So here are all the polishes I got over the holiday!

"Planet Beauty" had a 25% off sale, and the sales girl gave me an additional 20% off, so I scored big!!!

Deborah Lippmann "Superstar", "All that Jazz Collection", and "Today was a Fairytale"

OPI "Let me entertain you" and "The show must go on"

Then I dropped by a beauty supply store for some hair care products and I nabbed these.

"Louvre me, louvre me not", "Sea ya later, sailor", "Royal Rajah Ruby"

Then I ran over to CVS during their Milani sale and grabbed these

"Gold", "Silver Dazzler", "Perplex" and the Revlon jelly (posted earlier) "Royal"

While Christmas shopping for my family, I grabbed these Claires "Bright Skies", Finger Paints "Laugh My Art Off", and Sephora by OPI "Havana Dreams"

and then the big whopper!

Chanel "Black Pearl"...this is so pretty in person and very original! I love it.  I'm wearing this one first! :)

What polishes did you score over the holidays?

Zoya Ki and my Zoya Haul

So of course I got some new colors when Zoya had their "BOGO5" sale...and then it reminded me that I still has some Zoya's in my un-trieds from the Earth Day sale...geeze they just keep piling up :)

Zoya "Ki" 3 coats
Sally Hansen "Pedal to Metal" 3 coats with "Ki" dots (Ring)

"Ki" is a great purple duo-chrome shimmer that flashes olive green. I decided to do the ring finger in an accent color with some  "Ki"dots.  Sally Hansen "Pedal to Metal" is a lilac silver metallic, it went perfectly with "Ki".

I love this color, and it reminds me how great duo-chromes are, every little move and you get a new flash of color, awesome!

And Here is the Haul...



Crystal, Valerie, Isla, Yummy (this was the first Zoya I saw and it got me hooked to the line, but I never got it...until now) and Harlow

Karina, Cheryl, Edyta, Shawn and Yasmeen (finally got my hands on this beauty too)

:)

DT Haul

I went to the Dollar Tree and got my hands on these goodies.

 Sally Hansen "Titanium Chrome", "Lavender" and "Golden Cinnabar" :)..Woo Hoo!

Borghese "Bella Blackberry", "Festa Cerise", and "Colosseo"

I'm super excited about the Borghese's, they have shimmer and glitter in them...and then I hit up one more DT and found these two...

Sally Hansen "Plum It"..deep purple shimmer and "Cinnabar Opal"

Woo Hoo again :)

My new Haul

My Giveaway! Something is wrong with the form I used and its not working, so I have opened up the comments section on my giveaway.  Sorry!  Please leave your entry info there, Thanks :)


I always say "I'm not going to buy anything this month:, but that always fails and I have valid excuse this time...I was out of town, so of course I had to look for colors I can't get back home?...right?

That's my story and I'm sticking to it! LOL! :)

Yep, I finally got he Studio M/ Massini "Slamming Red" and "Purple Medallion"...sooo happy!
Red and purple polish chock full of holo goodness..yum yum!!!!

 :)

Sinful "Green Ocean"...woohoo, Ive been wanting this forever!  This was the only bottle left and from the looks of it, it was swatched by many a shopper, but I don't care, its mine now!!!!!

I'm a sad panda now, we don't have ANY sun in sunny California, so I have to wait to wear these, because you all know that the Studio M's are best in the sunshine!

Happy Days!!!!

New hauls and more "Magical" pics :)

OPI DS "Coronation", DS "Mystery" and DS "Magic"

 

China Glaze "2Nite", OPI "Jewel of India", OPI "Glacier Bay Blues"

Sinfuls, 3 of them are from my niece Nic, who works at the airport and met a passenger who didn't know if her polish could go TSA, my niece said they could go thru, but the woman gave her the polish anyway.

She immediately thought of me :) So sweet!  The other (Rich In Heart) I bought at Walgreen's during their sale.

 Here are some more pics of DS Magic, can you tell how much I love this color? :):)
 

Can you see it? Can you see the purple flash?  This is 3 coats with a top coat of Seche..love it!!!!

This color is WAY more blue than OPI Ink, it reminds me more of Orly "Lunar Eclipse" or Sally Hansen "Laser"...I have "OPI Ink" and "Laser" so I need to do a comparison, that will come next week.
