Spotted: Essie Resort 2013 Collection

Hey everyone! I just wanted to show you guys another new display that I spotted at my Walgreens. This is actually the Essie Resort 2013 Collection, which was just recently released. So far, I have only spotted this collection at my Walgreens. They might have it at my Ulta but to tell you the truth, I never really check the nail polishes at Ulta stores.

This new collection features four new shades that look like they would be gorgeous for the Spring and the Summer. The shades are:
◊ 1012 Come Here!
◊ 1013 First Timer
◊ 1014 In The Cab-ana
◊ 1015 Under Where?

If I were to buy anything from this collection, I would definitely buy all four shades (if I could). I do have to say that First Timer, In The Cab-ana, and Under Where? are gorgeous shades! Actually just typing up this post and looking at the pictures is making me want to go to the store right now and buy all four polishes. LOL

QUESTIONS:
Have you spotted this display yet?
Would you get any of these polishes?

Spotted: Essie Madison Ave-Hue Collection

Hey everyone! I just wanted to show you guys a new collection that I recently spotted at my Walgreens a few days ago. I was actually there to check out the clearance sale on the Valentine's items but my store didn't have much left so I decided to go to the next best thing, which was the makeup aisles!! Of course, I had to check to see if there were any new displays out and I spotted this one. It is the Essie Masison Ave-Hue collection. It features four shades for the spring.
The four shades in the collection are:

• 1007 Madison Ave-Hue
• 1009 Avenue Maintain
• 1010 Maximillion Strasse-Her
• 1011 Go Ginza

I think all four shades are pretty but I have seen similar ones from Essie as well but then again, I don't have a bunch of Essie polishes in my collection. If you have seen this collection, please let me know and whether you plan on purchasing any shades. Which shade do you think will be the most popular for spring?

Clearanced Walgreens Haul

Hey everyone! I don't know why I even went to Walgreens but I wanted to check out if they had any good deals going on. Well I didn't buy anything that was on sale but I did find a couple of items on clearance. Yay! If you know me, you know that I love buying things at discounts! I didn't get much because there wasn't that much left but I was lucky to get some stuff. Everything that I bought are nail polishes because I am a nail polish addict. LOL

What I bought:
- Wet N Wild ColorIcon Nail Polish in Diamond In The Rough
- Wet N Wild ColorIcon Nail Polish in Give Me A Price Quote
- Essie My Perfect Picks in Jazz & St. Lucia Lilac
- Essie My Perfect Picks in Real Simple & Very Cranberry

Everything was on clearance. Both the Wet N Wild nail polishes were $1USD plus tax each and the Essie mini duo sets were $2USD plus tax each. I was so excited that I found all of these on clearance. I have been wanting to try the Wet N Wild ColorIcon nail polishes ever since they came out but they were limited edition and long ago sold out. So that is all for my haul. I can't wait to try out these nail polishes!

QUESTIONS:
Have you been to Walgreens lately?
What brand nail polishes do you like?
How do you feel about WnW and Essie nail polishes?

Look What I Got!

Hey everyone! Look what I received in the mail today. I was so happy when I saw this package in my mailbox today!! But to tell you the truth, I actually didn't know what was inside. LOL Either way, I was excited and couldn't wait to get inside my house to open it! When I opened it and saw a little flyer showing the words, "TOMS + Essie" I got so happy and remembered what it was. It was a free Essie nail polish!

If you don't remember this offer, it was on Facebook a month or so back. Both Essie and Toms were working together and were offering a free nail polish. I think that they were giving away the same shade to everybody. The Essie nail polish that I was so lucky enough to get was Barefoot in Blue. It is a gorgeous creamy ocean blue shade that is perfect for the Spring! I love this shade and can't wait to wear it soon!

Were you one of the lucky few to receive a free Essie nail polish? What do you think about Barefoot in Blue? Do you like Essie polishes?

Mini Swapmeet Haul

Hey everyone! I went to the swapmeet and bought myself a couple of items. I didn't get much because I was mostly looking for some cheap jewelry that wouldn't rust as fast as Forever21 jewelry. I did find a couple of jewelry pieces that I can't wait to wear. If you would like to see what kind of pieces that I was lucky enough to find, then comment below and I will do a post on either my blog or on Luuux.

Okay back onto my haul. I only got two beauty items because the swapmeet that I went to sold mostly tools (like the kind at Home Depot and/or Lowes). There were a couple of tables that did sell health and beauty products but I only bought two products. I have been wanting to try out these products for a while but I am so glad that I waited because I bought all these products at great prices!! Sometimes I would go to the swapmeet to buy makeup because its so inexpensive and sometimes you can find new products that just came out a few months ago at great prices.
If you do decide to go to the swapmeet to buy makeup, always make sure that the product that you are going to buy is completely orginally sealed and not tampered with. Also check to see how old the product is because you never know how long the seller has had it before. Check the packaging and make sure it hasn't changed color due to sun damage and/or because its old. Always check the poducts that you buy because you never know!

At this swapmeet, I just bought a L'Oreal H.I.P Jelly Balm in Plush! It is a gorgeous pink! I have never tried these jelly balms before but I have always wanted one. I think these are discontinued now because I remember seeing these at my Walgreens on clearance. I would have bought one at Walgreens but all the ones left on the shelves were opened and swatched. Eww! I hate it when that happens. I was lucky enough to find this at the table that I visited. They had a bunch of makeup at all different prices. I bought this jelly balm for $1USD! I can't wait to try this because hopefully its going to keep my lips moisturized during the cold.

The nest product that I bought I was so lucky to find. I sort of wished I had bought more so I could give them away but I only bought one for myself because I wasn't thinking. Hopefully the next time I go, the seller would be here with a bunch more. So this product that I am so happy to find was the Essie Matte About You Matifying Top Coat!!! I was almost going to buy this a Walmart a few weeks ago but it was around $8USD and I didn't want to pay full price. LOL I am so glad that I waited. I bought this at the swapmeet for only $2USD! I pretty much saved about $6 plus tax for this! Yay! I can't wait to try this out. For those of you who don't know what Matte About You is, it is a top coat that makes all your nail polishes dry matte! I love matte polishes and its so hard to tell which polishes are matte from the bottle so this top coat is great!

I can't wait to try out all my goodies, especially the Matte About You Top Coat! I can't wait to see if it really works. Do any of you go to the swapmeet? You ever buy health and beauty products there? Do you have the Essie Matte About You and what do you think about it?

NOTD: Pink Nails = Love

Hey everyone! Today, I was feeling a little pink and decided to paint my nails PINK! I have been wanting to try out these two nail polishes for a while now and I finally had the chance today. I am so excited for this nail look. Its so cute. I know it might be simple but I am not that experience in doing nails yet. Hopefully, that will change in the future!

Okay, now onto my NATM: Pink Nails = Love post! As some of you might know, my favorite color is PINK! (But then how would you know, I just started this blog yesterday LOL) I have so many different shades of pink nail polish that it is definitely getting crowded in my room. LOL My nail polish rack is getting overcrowded with pink nail polishes. It is crazy! I bought a new nail polish recently and decided to feature it on my ring nail as an accent. I used Essie nail polish in "My Private Cabana" as my base color for all my finger nails. Plus as an extra bonus, I added NYX Girls nail polish in "NGP 104 Shimmer" just on my ring fingers. It took me about four coats of My Private Cabana and one coat of Shimmer. My Private Cabana is a very sheer polish and I wanted the color on my nails to be as opaque as the color in the bottle. Shimmer is a polish full of glitter. I am pretty sure that if I wanted to use this on all my finger nails, it would probably only take two coats on each finger to be fully coated with glitter. I love both of these polishes and I am glad at how the whole look came out.

NYX Girls Nail Polish in "NGP 104 Shimmer"

I know that this is a very basic nail look because I have seen way better nail designs on the Internet, featuring flowers and leopard/cheetah prints, but please bear with me. LOL I am not that experienced with painting on my nails that much. Hopefully later on in the future, I will be posting up awesome nail looks. Right now, I am experimenting with nail stamping kits, nail art stickers, and nail studs. If you would like to see individual swatches of each nail polish, let me know by commenting below. I will see you swatches of what the nail polish looks like coat by coat until it is opaque.
