Nail Polish HAUL!

I was feeling a bit non-glamorous after work one Tuesday evening and decided to perk myself up and buy something girly and springy. So I went over to Walmart and bought up some lovely new nail polishes!

I didn't want to spend over 4 dollars on each individual polish because, lets face it, I am a royal cheap skate. So in keeping with my decision I picked out these gems;

They only cost $2.77 each and they are very opaque and don't chip very much. I put a L'oreal base coat under neath and Seche Vite top coat to complete.

Overall I am pleased with this brand of polishes but my favourite are the Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure nail polishes. Unfortunately the Salon Manicure ones are $7 and they don't have very many fun or sparkly colours.

I did the following look on my nails with White On and Strobe Light on the ring fingers. You like?...

Revlon Colourburst Lip Butter Review

I'm obsessed.

I originally bought Creme Brulee and instantly fell in love. The price was over nine dollars at Walmart and I really had a hard time justifying buying a drug store lip butter for that much. But, after trying it I was impressed. The formula was smooth and not sticky (which is a major plus in my opinion). The lip butters are also pigmented nicely so that you can actually tell that you have something on your lips. They are more of a lip balm/ lip stick hybrid which is quite lovely. They also smell nice but are not over powering in any way.

I since added four more colours to my collection because they were on special at Shoppers Drug Mart for 3.99.

I currently have Peach Parfait, Creme Brulee, Strawberry Shortcake, Cupcake, and Sugar Frosting and I am planning to buy at least Tutti Frutti and Raspberry Pie because they look enticing.

* Side Note: Shoppers is an excellent place to find lowered prices on the more expensive drug store products. I have gotten numerous beauty bargains in my travels to Shoppers. ex. GOSH translucent powder for $5.00 (a top ten product for me), Benefit "That Gal" Brightening Face Primer for $5.00, Britney Spears Believe perfume 100ml for $19.99 (which smells amazing!), and many others.

I am so excited to have these lip butters for spring and summer as I feel that wearing lip stick this time of year is way too intense. Overall, I feel that this product is well worth the money for the quality and freshness they bring to the table.






Have you tried these lovely products?....
