I had to share my lunch break purchases! I had seen the Layla polishes in the circular from Ulta, so I wanted to check them out. I had bought a magnetic polish before at sephora, but didnt see as many color options as they had at ulta. I bought Brown Sugar, Velvet Groove and Metallic Sky. They are a little pricey at $15.50 but my usual butter london polishes are $14 so in comparison it wasnt bad. I really wanted Disco Biscuit, but they were sold out. I may have to just buy it online......and if you are looking for a great way to buy Butter London polish online, go to Nordstroms.com! They have free shipping no matter what the amount is, and its super fash shipping as well. I also got a couple flower pins and found they Butter London nail stickers on the clearance section. I havent tried many of them before, and at $5 I thought "Why Not!?!?"
I love flower pins, and with spring time just around the corner I wanted to pop some color onto my outfits. The blue one was on clearance for $5 and the big pink one was $10. All in all, I would say it was a productive lunch break!

crazy days!
I have been a little abset the last week, its been crazy at work. I needed to rest this weekend so I pretty much only slept and layed around. After the last 4 days at work I needed it. I did however try a new nail polish brand.....orly. At Sally's Beauty Supply they were $4.99 so I thought I would give it a try.....i actually really like it. I painted them saturday night and by Monday monday morning no chips. I may try to go back today and get a few more bottles since its a good price.

Off subject with Hair Care
I recieved a sample of Wen in my January Glam Bag and loved the product. It left my hair soft and shiny, but what I didnt love was the price and a monthly commitment of $30. In the long run, I know its not a bad value, but I didnt want to be stuck with it, and also read stories stating it was hard to cancel it. I dug around a little bit online and found out there was a dupe available at Sally Beauty Supply! For $11.99 I bought a bottle of Hair One!
This product works just as well as Wen, and my hair is in great shape after 3 weeks of use! The ends no longer look dry and it hold a curl for 2 days! I wash my hair every other day to cut down on the abuse it goes thru with heat products. You do use A LOT of product, so be warned....and it takes a little time, but totally worth it!

Julep Valentines day Mystery Box!
My mystery box finally arrived today, and I was super excited to see I was recieving box #7!
Only had 1 issue, all but 2 colors were duplicates of polishes I already own, haha. Oh Well! That was expected anyway. I recieved January and Shania that are new to me, but then also got Helena, Demi, Anne, Gwyneth and Stella. As far as other products go I had a mini Age Defying Hand Brighter, a glitter pot, Top Coat, Cuticle Oil (which is amaxing bwt), lip gloss in arousal, top coat for hair and the one thing I am very interested to try.....The Nail growth Revitalizing serum. I will keep you updated if I need any difference in my nails as I use it. All in all, great value for $19.99!!

Spring Nail Polish
Loved the Trout Pout color from the 2012 spring/summer collection. Paired it with Jaffa on the accent nail. Perfect combination for a springy manicure!

Butter London collection!
I love these polishes! These are my favorites of the moment, but the only place to get them around here is Ulta. I have started to order them online to get the colors that are not available here.....or that I can never find. Always seem to be sold out. :-(
The only ones I do not like are the glitter ones, mainly because they are so hard to get off. Their nail polish remover is awesome though! I am going to have to pick up a new bottle next time I go to ulta.

My addiction...
I thought I would join in on the blog world and write about one of my favorite things....nail polish! Yes, I have an addiction problem, but I figure if I can admit it, then its ok. Besides, it could be worse. From time to time I may also cover some of the other important items in my life, such as makeup and accessories, but I think thats allowed. It polishes your look off, right?
Not sure if I will get any followers, but I figure this is just something I can do for fun. If you do decide to join me, then kick back and relax as i dive into the craziness I call MY LIFE!
