Nail Polish Swap

Let me just start by saying I ♥ doing blog swaps!!  You get to meet some aMaZiNg people with great blogs and it is so much to shop for them!  Then, you also get a fun little package of goodies in the mail.  Who doesn't love getting packages in the mail?!?!  I know I do! 

This nail polish swap was hosted by the sweet girls at shineonblog and hairsprayandhighheels.  Thanks ladies for hosting such a fun swap! :)

All Lacquered Up

I was paired up with Christina at Easily Entertained and she is awesome - to say the least!!  I am fairly new to blogging and I had a question about something...so I asked her.  She was so sweet and didn't make me feel like I was bugging her or anything!!  She really "dumbed it down" for me...which is EXACTLY what I need!!  I NEED a blogging mentor!! LOL  Her blog is so fun to follow and I can't wait until I actually have time to go back and stalk read some of her old posts! 

She really hooked me up and got me exactly what I wanted.  I needed a gold glitter and I love this Essie one, As Gold as it Gets. I also had L'Oreal Violet Vixon on my wish list after seeing it here and she got it for me!!!  So excited to use it!  I also can't wait to use this elf polish - this will be my first time trying this brand and it looks like the perfect brown.  She also sent me a nail file (how cute is it?!?) and these new nail buffers from Revlon called Crazy Shine.  You can use them on your bare nails or over nail polish to rev up the polish shine.  I have one in my desk drawer at work...I had never heard of these...where have I been??  Here is what she sent me.



Thanks Christina!!!  Check out what I sent her here.

    Yay! I'm so happy you liked it all! I LOVE those buffer things. They make my nails pretty when I'm taking a break from color. I'm so happy we connected through this swap! And please, feel free to ask me anything! :)

Nail Files and a Giveaway

Today I'm linking up with Tara and Vicki  for their fabulous linkup party, The Nail Files. Essie : Turquoise and Caicos Julep : Ivy Annnnd...I'm doing something a little special for my readers today - a nail polish giveaway!!  I am admittedly copying Christina over at Easily Entertained .  :) She recently did a nail polish giveaway (that I missed out on..boo) and I thought what a GREAT way to get rid of some of my overflowing collection of polishes!!! You will win 8 bottles of nail polish including brands: OPI, CHI, Ulta, Avon, 2 Glitter Pots from Julep, and an Ulta Lipgloss! I apologize for the lighting - I will try to get a better picture and upload it. All of these polishes are slightly used (maybe 2 or 3 times) except for the CHI brand and the green Ulta one - those have never been used.  The glitter pots and the lipgloss are also brand spankin' new. a Rafflecopter giveaway

Loving Lately: My Discovery of MAC Cosmetics

I am 29 years young and I have JUST discovered MAC.  Yes, it's true.  I have apparently been living under a rock.  In a bubble.  Something!!  I ran out of foundation this weekend and decided to give it a try.  And O.M.G. I am so glad I did.  Ok - here are my face issues... 1. Oily Eyelids - eyeshadow creases within an hour...not fun. 2. Oily Face - makeup disappears and the shine is outta control...not fun either!! 3. Acne Scars - the dark spot kind...ugh!  4. Acne - why do I have acne at 29???  It just isn't fair to have to use acne treatment AND an anti-aging cream!!  I went to the MAC counter with absolutely no makeup on whatsoever....I was not lookin' pretty!  They were having a special event to market their "after hours" collection  and there was a model there with her husband who is apparently a famous NBA basketball player from the LA Clippers.  I guess I should've gotten a picture bu...

TRIA Hair Removal Laser

Ok...I'm just going to jump right into this.  Let's talk about hair.  I'm not talking about the hair on your head that you want people to see and love.  I'm talking about the unwanted hair that you loathe and want noone to see!  Embarrassing subject?  Yep!!  I have a medical condition called PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome) that has many, many side effects that makes it extremely difficult to get preggers but that's another subject we won't get into right now.  One of the most annoying effects being facial hair!!  There, I said it.  Since high school I've had to deal with this embarrassing situation.  Back then, I hated it and I would cry because I thought I was the only one dealing with this.  Now that I'm older (and wiser), I can laugh about it.  And the more I talk to people about it, the more I realize women everywhere are dealing with this "lady with the beard" issue.  I seriously could join a circus, people....
