Who doesn't love a fresh mani, brand new full set, clean cuticles and pretty hands?!

That's right, EVERYONE! 

I had a horrible experience last night at my salon. My nails just did not want to cooperate and the gel became bubbly and  my color selection was totally awful! So what did I do? I'll tell you what I did! 

I went to CVS and purchased the Sally Hansen Salon Effects Real Nail Polish Strips and in 15 minutes I had a set of nails that looked better than they did when I left the salon!! I purchased mine in Lust-rous which is a black polish with specks of gold and silver! Super appropriate for this cooler weather and they match everything I wear. 

Like I said, it took me 15 minutes to apply these strips. I did it on my lunch break at work in my car. When I returned to the office all the girls asked if I went to the nail place during lunch. NOPE, I sure didn't! 

Check them out! They have amazing solid colors and some pretty cool design ones too!! 

Makeup of the day!

No filter, highlight and contour at its best!!! Let me know if you want details how to get the look! 

Xoxo you fabulous ones!

Current Favorites!!

I'm make-up obsessed right now!! Correction, I'm always OBSESSED, however, I have found some amazing DRUGSTORE products that have become my essentials.

My first fabulous find is the Jordana 12 HR Made to Last Eyeshadow Pencil in all of the colors but especially the color Continuous Almond! This stuff lasts ALL day, is matte, waterproof and SUPER blend able. It is also very versatile in its use. I decided to use it as a highlighter one day and the rest was history! I literally use this eye shadow pencil everywhere i want to highlight and it is amazing! Oh and ladies; it's $3.99!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HELLOOOOOOOOOO xox

I just purchased the e.l.f. Studio Mineral Powder Brush for applying bronzer and contouring... AMAZING! This brush is from their studio line and is $3.00! WHAT A FREAKING DEAL!

Also from e.l.f is their Studio High Definition Undereye Setting Powder. I will never go without this! (for now at least!) it doesnt get cakey, and has the most perfect finish to it. It comes with a little brush for application but is much too small. I use the e.l.f. small stipple brush for application and its amazing!

Since the weather is getting slightly more gloomy I decided to go for a dramatic dark nail and fell in love with OPI Classics Collection Nail Lacquer Lincoln Park After Dark!!

What are you favorites this month? I love trying new products. Have you used the products above? What did you think of them?

I hope everyone is having a fabulous week! Much LOVE xoxoxo
