Nail Hauling (:

Hey everyone I have a nail polish haul for you all!!
I got all these over a period of about a week. Yes, I'm addicted! Lol!!
 Here is all of them, but one.  
 
 'Bali Mist' by Sinful Colors
It's a iridescent pink, with blue/green under tones. Looks great over pink, black, and even green polish!

 '24/7' by Sinful Colors
The is the best "highlighter" pink! Two coats then you have bright pink summer nails! You will need a top coat for this, as this is a mat.

'Purple Diamond' by Sinful Colors
This is another iridescent color. Its a light purple with silver sparkles in it! Looks great sanding alone, or over most colors. When I look at this it makes me think of Spring and Easter!

'Pull Over' by Sinful Colors
This is a great creamy school bus yellow! It only takes 2 coats and it looks FAB!!

'Aquamarine' by Sinful Colors
This is a great shade of blue for the summer. Creamy , opaque ,and looks good on most skin tones.

'Call You Later' by Sinful Colors
This glitter caught my eye right away. It has bigger green glitters and a ton of micro gold glitter. You could wear this alone or over something. Looks great, and it would be a good St. Patty day nail color.

'Show Me Some Skin' by Spoiled
This is the perfect nude nail polish for me! It almost blends in with my skin tone. Smooth, creamy, and dries really quick. I wear this the most, because it goes with just about everything.

'Orange Impulse' by Sally Hansen
If you want a great orange for summer this is it! Creamy ,goes on smooth , and very opaque! It goes great with light to dark skin tones. Just an overall great color to have, so if you see it, buy it! Lol!!

Finally we have 'Clearly Quick' by Sally Hansan
This is my go to top coat! My nails don't chip for at least 10 days, and its under $2!! You can't beat that with a stick, so go get you some!! 

Well this is my haul. I hope you all like what you see, and I helped you find some great colors. You can find these polishes at any drug store ,and all of them are under $3!! Until next time!! :)

DIY: Glitter Shoe's

Hey Peeps!
Over the past few weeks I have been getting a few things together for a DIY! I found this DIY on Pinterest couple months ago. It looked easy so I thought I would give it a shot! 

Thing's you will need:
1. Mod Podge
2. Glitter 
3. Paint Brush
4. Tape
5. Bowl/ Jar (to put the glitter glue mix in)
6. Shoes
7. Sand Paper
8. Mod Podge sealing spray

After you have all that you can start working on your shoes!

1. Sand all the parts of the shoe that you plan to put the glitter on.
2. Tape up your shoes! 
It should look something like this.



3. Mix one part glitter to one part mod podge.
4. Using your paint brush, paint an even layer of your mix onto the shoe.
5. Sprinkle the glitter onto the shoe, pressing it into the glue. Let dry for 15-20 min.
 It should look something like this:


I did four coats of numbers 4&5, letting them dry for 20 min. in between. You only have to do about 2-3, but I wanted them to shine.

6. Spray entire shoe with the sealing spray.
This step is very important as it will make the shoe weather resistant.

The end result should look something like this!


Thank you all so much for reading! Until next time. :)

Tanning Lotion On A Budget

              It's the middle of winter and you wanna get sun, so what do you do? You can't lay out in your yard,  go to the local pool, etc. Tanning beds offer the feeling of taking a nap by the pool, while laying out in the sun.

I have been an off, and on again tanning bed user for the past four years. When I first started using them Google was my best friend. I looked up, how to make my tan last longer, whats the best lotion to use, should I wear a bikini while tanning, what are the pros and cons of tanning in a tanning bed. I bought lotion, after lotion, after lotion. One that goes on before you get in the bed, another that you put on after you get out, and some that are supposed to make your tan last longer.

It was all a waste of $MONEY$!!!

Buying tanning lotion from the tanning salon can get expensive. It can go from $20 - $150 a bottle, if not more. Amazon and Ebay can offer great discounts on your favorite lotions, but if your just looking for something cheap that gets the job done go to your local Walmart. They have several tanning lotions for under $10.

My favorite so far has been European Gold Dark Star tanning lotion with 40X bronzers. It has super-soft silicon emulsion, and skin firming. Cute, sleek packaging , 13.5 FL OZ for under $8, and it smells great. You can't beat it! My tan was even, my skin so silky soft, and by the start of summer I had a dark golden tan. It looked as if I had went on a long, sunny beach vacation!

If you are looking for a great, inexpensive tanning lotion I recommend giving this a try. What do you have to lose?
