.:Friday Favorites:. ~~Yes...on a Sunday!

Yes, I realize that this isn't Friday... but Friday I was uncommonly busy! So you're getting Friday Favorites on Sunday. ;)


My first favorite is the September birthday polish from Polish Addict Nail Color. Girls, this polish is so full of a variety of shapes of glitters! It was like a party on my fingernails! I did an October Breast Cancer Awareness mani with this. I got a lot of compliments! It's a gorgeous pinky purple. And a little birdy told me that it was Glow in the dark! I had no idea. I never paid attention. When I use it again, I'm definitely testing that out! =) 
You can find so many unique polishes here on the PANC website!



These two puppies are so DELISH!
The Cold Stone Creamery coffee creamer is the flavor of my favorite thing there! I had to snatch it up as soon as I saw it. I was not disappointed! And the mocha one is an old favorite that I always love to have nearby!


I got this beauty from my friend Jessica. She's my nail mail buddy I met on Instagram. It was my first polish by Sephora by OPI and it did NOT disappoint me. It is definitely going to be my go to fall polish for an accent nail. It's a dark charcoal/black with very fine glitters in it.



This came in my first Julep Maven box. I'm an It Girl! This pink was perfect for a simple Breast Cancer Awareness mani! I even painted a few pink ribbons one people's nails with it. Love it!


This baby here is my very own holo top coat. I love it. I was going to get a picture of it outside in the sun but when I had time it was raining cats and dogs! It will be available here when my shop opens this coming up week! Stay tuned!


This brush is the ELF professional concealer brush. Honestly, It's WAY too small for a concealer brush, but honey, it's perfect, PERFECT for a clean up brush. Just dip this bad boy in polish remover and it cleans your cuticles right up after a mani! I'm definitely a fan. Thanks, Jessica, for sending this to me. I'm going to have to go pick up several backups! 

So, that concludes my Friday favorites on a Sunday! I hope ya'll enjoyed it!

September Favorites!!

I'm a little late to the game since we're already 9 days into October, but I seriously have not had the time to get anything blog related done! I thought it would be fun to do a monthly favorites kind of blog once a month. I shall normally post these closer to the beginning of the month, though!

I had a lot of things I used and liked for the month of September but I'm only  including things that I couldn't live without!

This stuff is magical! There are times when I don't have time to let my hair dry before I leave the house. You know you all have had that problem! Well, this stuff does wonders! It's a dry shampoo. I just flip my hair over and spray it (just like aerosol hairspray) at my roots and comb it through. It really freshens up my hair! It makes it soft and gives it a fresh scent.  Of course, if you've gone a week without shampooing your hair then this stuff probably wouldn't do much good. But if it just needs a boost until your shower that night, then this stuff is for you! I got it in a pack of 2 at Target for around $5!

This is a travel size bottle of lotion from Victoria's Secret. It's one of my all time favorite scents! (Love Spell is my favorite!) It's great for on the go moisturizing! Berry Kiss is a wild raspberry, praline, and rose scent. I don't know how much it was because I got it as a gift.

Being an Avon Rep, I get to try a ton of products... and this one happens to be my current favorite scent. Technically it's more of a fall scent (Cranberry &Cinnamon screams holidays to me!!) but I got it at the end of September and started using it right away! I was so excited because I've always wanted a body spray that was cinnamon scented but failed to find one. When I found this, I jumped on it right away. I was kind of disappointed at first because the cranberry over powered the cinnamon. But after wearing it for a couple of days I that I really did love it! It is very holiday-esque. I'm looking forward to using this all through the holidays!

Another one of my favorite Avon products is their Glimmersticks eyeliner. This one is their diamond line of that particular product. I love them all, so I didn't include a picture of the color of this one. (It's called Smoky Diamond, btw.) They glide on so smoothly and have AWESOME staying power.

And last but not least.. *drum roll please* It's Ringin' In The New Year by me! Glimmering Polish. It's one of the polishes that will be going up on my Storenvy shop in the next couple of weeks! Be on the lookout for it!
 It's filled with tons of micro glitters as well as multiple colors of hex glitter. So far, this one is the one that has generated the most popularity out of the ones I've let people sample and test out. I can't wait to let this and the others be available to you! There will be a detailed blog post about where you can find my polishes in the next couple of weeks.  

Daily Happenings
  • My nail mail buddy, Jessica, and I are finally swapping our first packages. I can't wait for her to get the one I sent to her. And, truthfully, I'm nearly bouncing off the walls to get hers. =)
  • I have become a glitter fiend. I order glitter on a weekly basis, it seems...
  • Wednesdays are usually my busiest day but today I'm taking it easy and getting some blogs scheduled and working on my store. And possibly playing some video games here and there. ;)
