Haul Time!

There is no Monkey See Monkey Do Monday Mani today. Instead you a look at my latest haul and probably last haul for a awhile. I'm trying to be good and I also joined a Halloween Swap so I want to make sure an leave something for them to get me! :)

This is my final swap package from my one swap group. This is from Amber and I love it! Look at all that yummy candy and polish! Oh and that little mustache? He talks! "Well, hello there" Hahahaha! The polishes I got are Saturday Morning Cartoons by Whimsical Nail Polish by Pam and a Francesca's polish called Confetti. I love them both and can't wait to use them!

This here is my first Hare Polish, Asteroid Turf. Really excited for this one! And then this lovely L'Oreal is Britt Invasion. Gorgeous!

Next up is a lovely little collection I found at Ross. A whole collection of green polishes from KleanColor! (L-R) Starry Meteor, Mystic Grass, Jazz Olive, Green Grass, TLC, and Melon Green. I bought this and then the next day saw this post from Gnarly Gnails where she states she loves Melon Green! I'm excited! :)

So I read about this wonderful and amazing top coat HK Girl, reviewed by Caitlin at Caitlin's Creative Corner. And I knew I had to try it out. Well I found out that not only does Jill sell it through her awesome store: Glisten & Glow, but sometimes you can find for sale by her on Copious! (which is where I got it!) I can't wait to try this. Like Seche Vite without the goopy! Woot!

And my last bit of haulage that cost me nothing! Essie Penny Talk! Free because I had enough Klout Perks! Don't have Klout? Sign up and get awesome perks! :)

Vacation Haul!

So today I am going to show you what I bought while I was gone. Nothing too exotic and crazy! :)

First is my purchase from Sally's during the extra 50% off clearance sale. I got Seche Rebuild and Finger Paints Flip Flop Fuchsia for, ready for this? A whopping $3.38! Woot woot! Love sales!

This is China Glaze Kalahari Kiss and OPI My Pointe Exactly. China Glaze Kalahari Kiss is really the only one from the new On Safari collection that I had to have. The others are pretty but I needed this one! And OPI My Pointe Exactly is one that I have been wanting for a while too. A grey jelly! Yes please! :)

Yep! Two of the new plates from Essence! Loving the starburst on the first one and check out the owl on the second one! *so happy* :)

And yep again! The other two plates from Essence! Mushrooms and PacMan! *squee!* These are from the lovely Malinka from Nails by Malinka. She was so awesome to get these for me! It's so fun to meet people in polish groups that can help get you your lemmings from half-way across the world! Thank you so much Malinka! :)

Woot woot! Dollish Polish It's A Me Mario! This lovely polish comes from a swap with the lovely Elizabeth from Nailpolish is My Crack. She is such an amazing lady! Thank you so much! I love it!

So? Any of you have any fun hauls lately?

Smallage Haulage

So I thought I would show you the two amazing polishes that I received from Hailey from my swap group. These were both on my wishlist and they are both stunning! They are from the etsy shop Sparkles by Julie.

Macro bottle shot of Water Lily. "This polish is packed with gorgeous glitters in gold, holographic, black and a little bit of blue for good measure". Isn't it just super duper purdy! Swoon!

Macro bottle shot of Coco. "A cup of hot steaming coco(a), on you nails!!". Um, yummy! Doesn't it look delicious! Gosh I love it!

Thank you so much Hailey! I love them both!

*******************************************

This is not part of my swap but I wanted to show you all my two new stamping plates that I received from ebay! Aren't they fun! Keys on one and mustachios and lips on the other! FUN!

Nail Mail Monday!

Another haul post! Really I promise I am slowing down (maybe) in buying of polishes! But all these great etsy shops restocked and I had to get my dream polishes! :)

First up are these amazing glitters from Sonoma Nail Art: 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea and Clockwork. I had to get these not only because they are gorgeous but also because they are Steampunk related! Yes! Thank you thank you thank you for making such awesome themed polishes! :)

Macro bottle shot of 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea (as stated on her etsy shop) "takes inspiration from Jules Verne and the imaginative adventures of Captain Nemo in the cold deep. 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea is a glitter polish with blue, green, and white shades". The polish is really stunning and the micro glitters reminds me of bubbles under the sea! :)

Macro bottle shot of Clockwork. Clockwork (as stated on her etsy shop) "takes inspiration from the fantastical gears and cogs of steampunk machinery. Clockwork is a glitter polish with multiple metallic shades". This glitter is perfectly named and is jaw-dropping gorgeous!

She also sent with the polishes a paper that gives you tips and tricks for glitter polishes and on the back of that is a step by step guide to the foil method to remove glitter polishes! What a brilliant idea! :)

I can't wait to show you these two polishes during my TGIF: Thank Goodness, Indie Friday segment. :) And don't forget to visit her Sonoma Nail Art's etsy shop here and her facebook site here.

What we have here is a gorgeous mini from Pretty & Polished called Hustle. Great things really do come in small packages! :) This little guy wasn't on my list to buy but then I saw him and fell in love! It has small green, copper, and silver hex glitter with larger silver and teal hex glitters. This also has silver bar glitter. Brown and green together in a glitter! My two favorite colors! Could it get any better! :)

Don't forget to check out Pretty & Polished's etsy shop here and her facebook page here.

Macro bottle shot of Pretty & Polished's Hustle. See super duper pretty! :) I'm excited for this one too!

What is one of my haul posts without a grey!? :) This I got in a swap from a fellow polish lover in a facebook group. She was looking for a polish which I happen to have and was willing to swap for. So I got my first American Apparel polish in Factory Grey. It's inspiration is based on their floors in their factory. It's grey/purple creme and I lurve it a lot! :)

Now these aren't nail mail but ones that I picked up in person. (l-r): OPI Houston We Have a Purple (absolutely love this name! Brilliant!), China Glaze Lemon Fizz, and China Glaze Electric Beat.

Have any of you bought any excellent polishes lately?

I've Been Bad!

So, I've been in a bit of a funk lately, not wanting to paint my nails. But I decided to go look at Sally's Beauty and Ulta to see what they have. I was bad! :)

In the above photo is what I got from Sally's. I finally got my bottle of Blue Cross Cuticle Remover! I've heard so many good things about it! And it is huge! :) The polishes are Finger Polishes (l-r) Grape Gumball (on clearance!) and Sexy Sundress (such an awesome green!). And I also finally found some resin to have on hand for when my nails be stupid and start to peel! :)

Macro bottle shot of Finger Paints Grape Gumball. Such a pretty purple, yes purple (I promise it is a purple in real life!) with glass flecks through out!

Bah! Look at what I did at Ulta! I can't believe I bought all four of those! But they are clearance so it doesn't fully count right? (l-r) Orly Galaxy Girl, Orly Rock Solid, Orly Out of This World, Orly Hally's Comet. They were all clearance!!!!! Next up is Sally Hansen Loves Me Not. I have been looking for this polish and I find it in the clearance bin! Fate! :) Next is Orly Buried Alive, from the Dark Shadows collection that just came out! I'm excited for this! And last but not least is my first Piggy Polish in Sunshine on Snowflakes (a lovely holo glitter). I got the Piggy Polish for free from spending so much in the previous months! :)

Macro bottle shot of Orly Galaxy Girl. Look at the glass flecks and the duochrome!

Macro bottle shot of Orly Rock Solid. A lovely grey with glass flecks and holo glitter! What's not to love?

Weekend Vacation Haul!

PICTURE HEAVY! :)

I went to Palm Springs, California for the weekend and on the way home I decided to hit up some stores! :)
This picture above is from Ross. I have a Ross where I live but I wanted to see if there were any KleanColors. And yep! There were!
First the top polish is Essie Coat Azure. It is a lovely dusty blue with silver shimmer.

In the first KleanColor box (l-r): Sheer Pastel Pink, Sheer Peach, Sheer Pastel Nude, Sheer Red, Top Coat, White. I got this box because since I have done one jelly sammich I thought I could use these to do more!

The second KleanColor box (l-r): Peacock-A-Boo, Lake Mist, Kawaii Stuff, Shining Sea, Blue Pearl, Cobalt. I don't have a lot of blues, but now I do! :)

Stopped at Claire's and found these pretties! (l-r): Drops of Jupiter and Blast Off

Macro bottle shot of Claire's Drops of Jupiter. Can you see the purple along the edges! Pretty!

Macro bottle shot of Claire's Blast Off. Such a bright fun happy color with a bit of teal along the edges!

Then I got to go to Rite Aid! Wow! You ladies who have one near you are lucky! There were so many colors that I wanted but could only choose 10. These are the first 3 (l-r): Jesse's Girl Confetti, Jesse's Girl Glee, Jesse's Girl Firefly.

Macro bottle shot of Jesse's Girl Confetti. Look at the pretty purple along the edges!

Macro bottle shot of Jesse's Girl Glee. Perfect name! Blue, green, and gold! Yummy!

I was able to find Sinful Colors Pearl Harbor! And there were so many CQ polishes to choose from but I just got Silver Taupe. And then I saw the Hedy's Ma.nish.ma polishes and couldn't pass up Bolts of Blue. It is a Matte polish too! :)

Macro bottle shot of Sinful Colors Pearl Harbor! A fun sparkly top coat! :)

Macro bottle shot of CQ Silver Taupe. The name accurately describes the polish. It is a taupe with a silver shimmer!

These are the last 4 of the polishes I bought at Rite Aid. (l-r): Petites Figi, Petites Vintage Gray, Petites Wizard, and Petites Wicked!

Macro bottle shot of Petites Wizard. A lovely brown shimmer! Also couldn't pass up the polish because of the name! :)

Macro bottle shot of Petites Wicked! Purple glitter in a black base. Pretty! I may have a dupe for this, but oh well! :)

Any one else have a good polish haul recently?
