January Ipsy Bag

Hey everyone!  Today I  have my January Ipsy Bag to share with you!
I got 5 products in this months bag: 

First up, Pacifica Body Butter in Tuscan Blood Orange.  I love this lotion! The smell is a little strong but I like it. It's kind of a Raspberry Orange scent.  I also love that this lotion is long lasting and non-greasy.

Second, I got an eye liner brush from Soho.  This has a flat tip brush and I love the triangular shape for your fingertips...gives it a comfortable hold.


Third is Josie Maran Argan Oil.  This oil seems a lot heavier than my other hair oils so a little goes a long way with this one.

A Big Sexy Hair hairspray was also included.  I haven't tried this brand before so I'll have to give an update later on...

and the last thing in this months Ipsy bag was a Nailtini polish in the color Frappe.  I wasn't too excited about this color but it is pretty nonetheless.


Here's how I played with it:
I used 3 coats of Frappe.

Springy Blues

Hey everyone! You all know I've been craving Spring like no other so today I pulled out another pastel color from my untrieds pile and then was pleasantly surprised when I layered it with another untried!  
Butter London Knackered and Sally Hansen Air.

Here's 2 coats of Air 


Then I added one coat of Knackered and fell in love!  It's much prettier IRL.  My camera just refused to pick up the gorgeousness of these two together.

Blue Satin Bar

Hey everyone!  Going through a few untried I came across Kleancolor Blue Satin. It's so pretty...reminds me that I'd love to get my hands on Essie Starry Starry Night.
Here is 2 coats...oops forgot the bottle shot!




 Happy Monday <3

A Happy Accident

Hey everyone!  I thought I'd keep it simple today and do just ONE water marble accent.  Well, it had to be re-done a couple of times because my colors would not disperse correctly and I ended up with something a little different but I actually kind of like it.
What I used:
China Glaze Creative Fantasy, Wet n Wild Black Creme and Zoya Wednesday

For my baby...

 Hey everyone!  So my little baby is turning 8 on Monday and to kick off her birthday weekend I decided to do a mani in her honor.  It didn't turn out as cute as I imagined and I managed to bump one of my nails right after I slapped on some topcoat, so this will just have to do...
First, what I used:
China Glaze Go Go Pink, Hang-Ten Toes and Innocence
Pro FX Quick Dry High Gloss TC

Sinful Colors Snow Me White, NK Mystical, Essie Silken Cord , OPI  Do You Lilac It? and Julep Sandra
Happy Friday <3

Pressed Flowers

Hey everyone!  I am still in a Springy kind of mood and I've been dying to try my pressed flowers from Born Pretty Store.  There's no way I'm waiting for Spring!
I used Sally Hansen Sorbet....so pretty!
My topcoat sort of bubbled over my flower so I'll have to try it with Seche or Poche.



Happy Wednesday <3

Flowers in Winter?

Hey everyone! I don't know about you but I am SO over winter already.  I HATE the cold and this whole week driving into work has been around 8 degrees!  I'm ready for Spring and I think my mani for today shows it.
I used Zoya Bevin and Revlon Whimsical for the accent and Sally Hansen I Pink I Can as the  base for the other nails.


Happy Saturday <3
