Glitter Week Day 7!!

Alright well I honestly have 13 posts of glitters so this whole 'glitter week' isn't an actual week thing! haha :)

There are only 6 more days to enter my giveaway! So be sure to run and do that :) My plans are to add two more prizes: one for an additional winner (4 prizes total) and one for the person with the most unique comment. These things will happen only if I reach 200 followers :D So run and tweet and tell everyone and their brother! lol i love odd sayings.


Okay from left to right: Studio M Magic Attraction, Nubar Gem, Sinful Colors Queen of Beauty, Claires Glow in the Dark


From left to right: Glow in the Dark, Queen of Beauty, Gem, and Magic Attraction
Each is two coats of glitter by themselves.


Here they are again, each with one coat of black and one coat of glitter!



Here is a close up of  Magic Attraction. It is a clear base (its hard to tell) with just a crap ton of glitter! Its pretty amazing. I might pick up another one for my giveaway just because it is so unique. Most of the glitter is a coppery brown with holographic glitter also.


Here is a close up of Gem. It looks dupey to the glitter above, I'll do a comparison eventually. The main difference is this has a colored base. I don't know what color to call it honestly. Almost a brown leaning mauve. lol. Either way, it is also packed with glitter and holographic glitter. 


Here is a close up of Queen of Beauty. It is a clear based glitter with true silver glitter. No holographic or changing colors. It is actually pretty awesome without holographicness. As you can see, it does not like to spread out evenly by itself. So i recommend a color underneath it. 


Here is the glow in the dark nail polish. Claire's makes a bunch of different colors of glow in the dark nail polish, and this one is the white/clear version. It has light sparkles and you cannot tell it is glow in the dark. It is a great topper to give that extra pizazz. From what I can tell, the more layers of this polish - the more glow in the dark it is. I recommend at least three layers of it to make it glow!



So what do you think? Do you like the giveaway idea? :) Remember to enter it! It ends 6/30 at midnight and it is open internationally!! 


P.S. My little sister has started her own blog (hehe she wants to be like me :) ) and wanted me to tell you girls about it. She loves art and that is what it is based on. :)  http://artwork101-ashtyn2001.blogspot.com/

Haul SPAM!!

Okay, I have been putting off blogging until I unpacked! Sorry :( And the day I want to start up again... BLOGGER IS DOWN. :( It was all in all a very depressing day. But I have some awesome posts planned so stay tuned :)

For today I figured I would post pictures of all of the hauls I have had in the past two weeks. And you might say, how many hauls could you possibly have? Well....a lot. I truly am addicted haha :)

Warning: PIC HEAVY :)

First, A picture of what I came home to from college....


Yes, they are all polishes :D  Don't judge me!! :)

All of the polishes contained in said packages.....


I did not write down all of them, but just comment and I'll look up the name for a certain one :)

Here was an especially awesome package from an awesome ebayer...


My three awesome polishes, PLUS a hand written note, free bottle of Sephora's nail polish remover, Perfume sample, and mini OPI!!! :)

I have no idea what color this is (no name on the bottle), but If you girls recognize it let me know!!


This is a pretty accurate picture of the color.

My new crackles :):):):)



Here is a true testimony to how awesome Zoya is! I received my Zoya Earth Day order and when I opened it, there were six polishes that I did not order!! I talked to customer service and told them what happened. They shipped my correct order out right away and let me keep the ones I received in error!! I got to get more Zoya and they are all beautiful! I just never would have gotten them myself!!
