Top Holiday Nail Polishes

Hey Guys!,

I thought I would share with you a few of my favorite nail polishes for the Holidays. Lets get started.

Sonia Kashuk Emerald City. Perfect dark green color.

Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear in brick wall. A great deep red color.

ELF  Red Velvet. A darker red shade with tons of shimmer in it. 

Maybelline color show in porcelain party. A beautiful stark white. Applies really easily.

Wet n' Wild Spoiled in I have no reception.  This beautiful silver glitter polish is perfect for making an accent nail pop. Or adding sparkle to your nail look.

Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear in Golden-I. Gorgeous shimmery gold shade.

Nicole by OPI Kardashian Kollection Rainbow in the S-Kylie. Multicolored glitter polish with different sized glitter. It reminds of confetti, I think it will be perfect for New Years.

MAKEUP SPONGES!

Today I caved in and ordered the Beauty blender. I have been so hesitant about purchasing this item because I feel like $20 is a lot for a makeup sponge. However I keep hearing amazing things about it in the beauty community.

All the reviews I have read or watched on YT have expressed their love for this product and how it gives you a flawless finish. 

I know I am late on the beauty blender bandwagon but once I receive mine (which should be wed.) I will let you know my thoughts. If you want to check out this product for yourself it is available at sephora but I think it is online only. I ordered mine off of amazon for a little cheaper.

If you think I’m crazy and want a cheaper alternative there is Sonia Kashuk’s sponge which is $9.99 at Target.

I have not tried Sonia’s version so I cannot really tell you if its a dupe or worth splurging on the beauty blender but here is a video from makeupgeek that discusses the two sponges:

Hope this helps and I’ll be sure to give you my first impression and thoughts when I get mine!

MINI TARGET HAUL

Last night I was shopping at Target and I picked up a few beauty items I want to share with you guys. 

First up is Dove’s damage therapy daily moisturizer conditioner which was a deluxe package including a big 25.4oz bottle as well as a bonus 8oz bottle all for $4!! Score! I love this stuff since my hair is color treated and it has an amazing scent.

Next up I really needed a new eyelash curler so I picked up one from elf (eyes lips face) for $1. Haven’t tried this one out yet

While I was in the elf section I decided to pick up their lengthening and volumizing mascara from the studio line for $3. I have been impressed with their products lately and I’m hoping this one doesn’t disappoint. 

Also in the elf department I grabbed their nail polish remover pads for $1. I did not have very high hopes for these but I was pleasantly surprised! It has a citrus smell and not a strong nail polish remover scent. One little pad took just about all my nail polish off. I was shocked. Definitely need to pick up more of these, and I want to try out their eye makeup remover pads which are also $1

Next stop was the Rimmel Section. I found a beautiful baby pink nail polish. Its number 130 french lingerie from the french manicure pro line. Its a very pretty color and unlike most cream or light pink colors it doesn’t require many coats which i find leaves nails with that tacky feeling that always smudges. I can’t remember the price exactly but I believe it was around $4. 

Last but certainly not least I found beautiful Sonia Kashuk false eyelashes. They look amazing in the packaging so I hope they look amazing on! They also include glue and were $5.19.

**little update** The Sonia Kashuk lashes have a thick band which makes them less flexible and definitely a bit more difficult to apply. If you are not really comfortable with lashes I don’t recommend  these, I would use ardell half lashes to get started. Also I am not a huge fan of the glue. So while they look beautiful in the packaging I’ll probably skip these next time. 

Hope you guys enjoyed this little haul. Currently I am in the process of reviewing Maybelline’s Baby Lips in #10 peppermint, I’m waiting the full four weeks it suggests to see if there are any changes so stay tuned for that.
