Remington Pearl Curls

Heat defense spray & Remington pearl hot rollers =

Heat defense is a must

Dove heat defense is bomb! Love this stuff. I do not use any other hair products when I use my Remington Pearly Clip hot set rollers and Dove Heat Defense. My curls stay for nearly 2 days and yes I sleep on them no special ritual either. I work early as heck so I try to do my hair the night before. I will do some pics in a bit... No make up "I aint scurrred." Lol.

Suave dry shampoo

Suave came out with several dry shampoos  I've tried two so far. The first one I tried was the Suave Pro Keratin Infusion dry shampoo. To me it did what a dry shampoo is suppose to refresh my hair, take away the oily feel, great volume, clean scalp feel. Keratin infused one has a aerosol like smell (expected) but yet tropical. The Suave Pro dry shampoo (green cap no other specifics) to me does not give me as much volume as I want (no not like Snooki). It does remove the oily feel but thats it. Also the smell reminds me of an artificial green apple smell. I got the Keratin infused one at Walmart for $3.47, regular one was from Target for $2.47. I would buy the Keratin infused one again. I will keep trying more dry shampoos and let u know my honest opinion. Dyed redheads use dry shampoo quite a few times a week. Down fall is I feel like I only got 4 uses out of the first canister so we'll see cause im making note on the 2nd canister on how many uses I will get.

Marbling with multiple colors

I will be using some Wet n' Wild Fast Dry polishes that I bought in a summer pail a few months ago for $9.99 from CVS. A lot came in the bucket plus one white nail art bottle and some stencils. Sinful Colors had a $0.99 each sale at Walgreens, I bought a bunch in September 2011, I'll be using three of those. Caught a NYX sale at the Beauty Outlet in Ellenton it was 10 NYX items for $5!! Using Karnak as a base its a slight shimmery nude. Lastly I have two random polishes I got from the nail supply store in Tampa.

Water Marbling

So many drops to start/create a design/look that I sometimes cringe. I do water marble looks only with my least expensive polishes but always finish with a good top coat. I feel horrible exposing my little secret but I cant tolerate fishing out excess polish and not feeling like I wasted some. :/ anyone know of a less wasting way to marble? I love the unique looks I get marbling but I am not "ok" with doing that with OPI, Essie, and etc. Marbling now will post in a bit.

Dashing Diva DesignFX

Four day wear.. So far still good as a trial run. Ring finger has no clear and lost 2 stones/dots after getting finger caught in my hair a few times. The Pinky has clear and still lays nice. I do dishes at home, type a lot, and am very clumsy. I would purchase these again, fab product Dashing Diva!

RIP iPhone..

One drop dead! I was sooo upset. Ugh now what do I do with this? Its all white screened when on. Dang it Apple you need to work on drop testing for ur devices. Not spending $$$ on iPhone 4s so back to Android. :/

Fueling up for a tutorial and a new nail look

Old school I know. Chef Boyardee easy and fills me up! A childhood go to that will remain in my life.

Ardell lashes deal..

Buy 2 get 1 free at Sally's!! Its Ardell lashes all types. I just bought some elf ones that I wanted to try because they come with a vial of gel adhesive. But this deal on Ardell will be a good addition to my back up stash.

Sparitual??

I want this brand of polish sooo badly but am not sure where to find them for a good price!! Do u have any ideas?? Also do you love or hate them? I've heard mixed reviews. Also right now on Facebook they are giving some proceeds to oursoil.org :) I love a good cause!! So neat and the duo set that some of the proceeds go to the organization is pretty cute, earth-tones but glittery :)!! So are you a Sparitual buyer or not? Should I even spends some $$ on this or is there another brand you prefer to give your $$ to? If so pls share :)

Kokoa Hut chocofix

Have u tried Kokoa Hut yummies? If not u need to!! Its my second year in a row of having treats from this fab chocolatier from Thailand to the US. My favorite (also my son's fav) is the Suncho. Its a sunflower seed dippes in a rich chocolate then sprayed with a shell-like shiny coat. My son inhaled the entire tube of Suncho so I am going to try the Greeny Pumpkin Choco. Its a chocolate coated pumpkin kernel but with green tea flavoring. I will let u know how it tastes in a while.

Target beauty deals

Before I started my busy day we made a quick stop to Target. For just under $8 I got me some lashes, elf studio make up remover cloths (comparable to MAC!), & a dyed red head's best friend some dry shampoo!! Awesome. I did well with a total under $20 for these deals, shower necessities, & some replenishes for my pantry.

Dashing Diva DesignFX

I bought a pack of Dont Touch My Sparkle. It was $8-9 a pack will cover 36-42 nails. Its pretty easy to use but it reminds me of fancier sticker art. I thought it would be like polish strips with 3d effects. I like it but not love it. Have to admit though the prints they offer are fabulous! I would once in a while buy 1-3 packs to have for clients who wants them. I will finish the look, after cleaning around, with OPI Rapidry top coat.

My nails looks well kept, truthfully ive not trim my cuticle since Oct 2011!! I bought this buffing cream for $1 @ my local Salon Centric. They seem to always have sucb great deals!! Well heres some pics..

Glitter mani or no??

Today I ended up being the babysitter for my baby nephew Joseph... was debating on doing his nails but I don't think his mom would find it cute. But then again I was asked to babysit him... so hmmmm. I am doing nails on a client later and I wanted to lay some colors on myself to show her how the Dashing Diva Design FX would look and also use my matte top coat :). (sigh) This toddler is so active  I am afraid to open up my train case and chance losing a color (he has a thing that he loves to throw stuff away). Argh. Well Jake & the Neverland Pirates are on so lets see if that can distract this little linebacker till my nails are dry....(says a small prayer)..

Dupe for OPI's "It's a Girl"

I love love love finding dupes. It's a breather for my $-flow. Let's be honest sometimes it's gut wrenching when u see how low you are on your bigger brand items... but the price can be a bummer when you realize you realize the majority of that color was used on minor details of a piece. Well I've made it my personal business to share dupes I find to all you polish connoisseurs like myself (yes I labeled us & I love it). Well OPI's it's a girl is an uber cute opaque pink that I just adore. I am down to a baby size bottle till I can track down a local lacquer dealer here for one sold at a decent price. I went to CVS a few weeks ago and picked up some Spoiled by Wet n' Wild, totally slipped my mind till I got home that I was down to the baby-mini size bottle of OPI's it's a girl!! Upset and pretty down about it I was like ugh I will just do my nails to cheer me up. Well I wanted to try out the Spoiled line so I started to paint my nails using My Button Fell Off ..... hmmm after the first two nails painted I was like hey you are looking very familiar well... ahhhha you are my new BFF... ahhh it's a DUPE perfect match!! SCORE! Well lets get to the pic I am such a rambler..lol... try this out and let me know what you think but for a bottle dupe of an OPI at $1.99 each I say it's a steal!!

Nails treats & lippy!!

Coupons were getting close to the expiration so u know I had to pull them out for use this shopping trip!! :) I tried to find Wet n' Wild's Megalast polish but 1 out of the 3 Walmarts that we decided on was OUT!! I was eyeballing these all day at work and picking the colors I wanted (game plan gotta have one) and of course NONE were on the shelves.. so bummed. Well I did not leave this trip empty handed I left with some NYC Matte me CRAZY top coat, Kate for Rimmel 8hr long lasting lippy in 12- it's a pretty coral color that's not too shiny but not matte, Sally Hansen Xtreme wear in 140 Rockstar Pink (uber cute), & Pure ICE in Cheatin a purple and teal small glitter polish. I had a coupon for the Rimmel lippy and Sally Hansen nail product each $1 off :). I spent less than $11 on four products that I can't wait to try!! eeeek pic will be posted below, if u've tried any of these prodcts pls let me know I will post a pic soon of the nail design I do with these polishes. Also as always the Rimmel lippy by Kate is ridiculously yummy smelling!!

Spoiled by Wet n Wild pros & cons

Spoiled by Wet & Wild polishes pros & cons. For the price these fun colored polishes are a steal at $1.99 each. I got Tip Your Waitress it's a neon pink <3 it, Did I Dye It Too Blonde it's a neon yellow just fab, and My Button Fell Off it's an opaque french manicure pink-ish feeling this for the nude touchings. These colors dry fast, coverage is good 1st coat, leaves a matte-like finish. Not the average cheap polishes I'd say. There is a downfall... the brush is uneven and FAT!! They tried to copy the brushes from the Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure line, FAIL!! Today is the 1st day wearing these colors by this new line Spoiles so we'll see how long they survive the mel-factor. But for the fun colors and just to have many colors to pick from to keep my fingernails from being "boring" I would repurchase these :).
