NOTD

This is from a couple of days ago, I decided to use one of the polishes that I got from the CVS 75% off sale.
Revlon Tropical Temptation

I like it, the formula was good, I believe that this was three coats with a coat of Seche Vite on top of it. Bottom line: totally worth it for 1.75.

NOTD

This NOTD is OPI Visions of Sugar Plums as a base coat, with OPI Sparkle-icious over it. I thought this was gorgeous, although it was impossible to get a not blurry picture of it.

NOTD

I was feeling like using a dark, winter-y color, and this color was the first that jumped out at me. The one thing I hate about this polish is that it's super sheer and needed four coats and is a little runny. But I love the end color!

CVS Haul

I went to CVS to exchange the Lash Stiletto that I bought in brown for a black one. And again, I failed, only this time twice. First, I forgot the one I was going to exchange at home. Then, when I got there, I decided to buy two of them since they had the mascara at buy one get one 50% off. So I bought two and made sure that they were in blackest black.
See what's wrong yet?
I got the waterproof formula! *Facepalm*
I don't like waterproof formulas for three reasons: I don't need them to be waterproof, they tend to flake, and they're hard to remove. Ugh...but I had to open one because I needed a new mascara. So now I'm using a flaky hard to remove mascara. But CVS has a policy that you can return products if you don't like them, so next time I'm there I'm going to exchange all of my failed mascaras.

While I was there to find these, though, I found some Revlon polishes at 75% off, which came out to about $1.75 a piece. Not bad, I thought. So I got these three colors:
Revlon Cherry Berry

Revlon Pink Freeze

Revlon Tropical Temptation
I'll probably be doing some NOTD's with these soon, I'm anxious to see if I wasted my couple of dollars!

NOTD

Today I painted my nails with China Glaze Street Racing...one of the new nail polishes that I got on clearance at Ulta. I was worried that the color would look odd with my skin tone but I really like it. This is three coats, although it was opaque in two I generally add an extra one just because. The formula of the polish is a little runny, but not horrible.

New Year's Resolutions and NOTD

I'm not usually one to make new year's resolutions, but this year I've decided to consistently update and keep a blog going! So here goes...my first post. A quick nails of the day post. Unfortunately, I had misplaced my camera all day (turns out my mom had cleaned my room and brought it downstairs) so the pictures are taken after a day and there's a chip on the pointer finger and some tipwear. So, sorry about that but kudos to me for the effort to post!
