This color is amazing! It’s Sally Hansen’s quick dry polish. It does dry fast, it didn’t even feel tacky. It doesn’t even have a bad smell, it’s almost a sweet scent that definitely doesn’t have the typical chemical aroma you associate with polish.

The other day I got pieces of tinsel seen in my hair! I’ve been wanting it for months but my busy summer was in the way of me making a hair appointment!

I picked out pink and blue, and got ten strands put in. They will fall out when my real hair natural comes out of my head. Isn’t that cool?! I really love it.

Jewelry of the day: You Suck necklace

Boy, do I wish I could wear this to work! It sums up how I feel about humanity in general! Wouldn’t the clients really understand my true feelings so much better, if only it was approved. Lol. I got this necklace from Claire’s, I guess in high school! It’s still appropriate today though, and always, I’m sure. I wore it to a preppy bar in my hometown, only went out cause my mom and some friends wanted to go. Very fitting! Ha. The place was ultra stuffy, crowded with a bunch of look-a-like boat shoe phonies. But that’s none of my business!! Teehee.

How to: Organize a Bathroom Closet

It’s hard to find things in a closet this large until you have everything put in place nicely.

First off, I went to Ross and TJ Maxx looking for good containers or bins made for storage. I settled with the black and gray rectangle cloth trays you see above with the metal circle in front. It’s hard to see from this image, but the rolled bath towels, as well as hair dryers are living in those rectangles on the bottom shelf. The ones on the other shelf store wash cloths and my wax pot for doing my eyebrows, and the implements that go with that process, along with instant tanners.

The hard, transparent plastic containers hold my hair products, makeup supplies, and other skin care items. It’s helpful in a daily basis because I can see through them and find what I need quickly when I’m getting ready for the morning or night.

Basically, keep the stuff you use once or twice a day, up top or at eye level. Keep the things that you use a couple times a week on the shelf lower, and the lower you go, put the things you don’t immediately use in your regular routine, like extra toilet paper, and cleaning products. It’s pretty simple to keep your washroom neat and ready for read access!

Review: Gummy Bear Candle

I’m happy that this candle turned out cooler than the deer candle I had reviewed last year. Actually, I never published my review of the deer candle cause I was disappointed at how it burnt, and that the metal Skeleton totally crumbled apart when it was finally revealed!

This one is by Skeleton Candles and they claim to make the best animal candles, on their website. It took maybe six hours to burn all the way to the butt of the bear. After that, I put it in the freezer to get off all the wax, and then I stuck it in the dishwasher to remove all the soot.

 

Hair of the Day: Red Lowlights

I was called in for jury duty, which I did not want to attend, and thought maybe if I looked different, or like a rebel, that I wouldn’t have to get picked for a trial. The night before I had to go to my summons, I did six foils using Pravana color that is sold at Sally. I don’t recommend doing your own hair unless you are a stylist, like I am!

I honestly don’t like the color red, I’m just too rebellious for my own good at times. It looks fine with my skin tone, but I prefer blue if I have to do fantasy color. I just didn’t have any at home. I’ll bleach this out a bit after a couple weeks.

My lpstick is Prom Night by Jefree Star, and layered on top is one of my Limecrime unicorn toppers!

Nails of the Day: Sinful Colors in Ruby Ruby

I don’t like the color red, tbh, it’s so bright and bold and obnoxious, often tacky. That’s just how I feel about the color in general, but it’s one of the three colors I wear to work everyday, so I’m getting better aquainted with it, on the daily. I just polished them yesterday, but they’re chipping slightly because I’ve been doing hair all day!

I bought this color like three or four ago for hair school; we had to polish fake nails on a fake hand and we had to use fire cracker red so it would show up well. Everyone at work has thought it’s pretty though, so maybe I’ll use this hue more in the future! At least it’s shiny and matches my work clothes perfectly, oh yes and also my color blind boyfriend can see it, so that’s cool. It’s his favorite color!

Outfit of the Day: Monochrome Gris

I wore this to dinner at Blue Rock Pizza last month. It was unintentional but I ended up in all grey! I hadn’t planned on wearing anything super cute, but I decided to photo it when I realized it was an epic outfit. I probably shouldn’t have worn suede since it was raining, however, the color matched the stormy night perfectly!

Review: NYX Lingerie Matte Lip colors

Above, I am wearing the Babydoll shade. It is a nice warm nude color that doesn’t wash me out!

I’m so excited with these!! They work just as well as the twenty buck lip colors at Sephora. Seriously, for such an affordable makeup brand, I’m thrilled that these are in the same league as Kylie Cosmetics, Kat Von D, and Jefree Star.

The applicator is great length, perfect width and long enough, and kind of flat. After a couple minutes, it’s totally dry, and stays on as long as you don’t eat something really greasy. Doesn’t flake unless you rub your lips too much before it dries, or apply too much of the product. Make sure your lips are exfoliated well too so it won’t build up funny and crumble, but that goes for any lip stick really.

And in this pic I’m wearing my fave because of the berry undertone, it’s called Embellishment. This was taken after a day of work, see, it stayed in place the whole shift!

New Products: Facial Brush & Facial Stimulator

I found both of these at Tjmaxx and decided I need to pamper myself more, so why not?

They are both battery operated, at-home facial massagers. Technically the brush is a cleaner too, but anything that stimulates blood flow is anti-aging, and massaging. I like that they are both waterproof, so you can use them in the bath or shower or just at the sink if you’re in a hurry.

If I really like them after using them a while, I’ll do a review!
