Mani of the week: Oktoberfest!

I did a little shopping today and I caved and got OPI It's always Oktoberfest In the Germany collection. I mean...I'm German so I have to get at least one right?

Right!

So Basecoat, Color and I bought another bottle of China Glaze Fast Forward top coat. Still my favorite fast drying for regular ol' nails. NOT NAIL ART it smears!

On my nails:

it is such a beauteous purple I adore it!.... but its more red in artificial light. 

I also got a new Venique and OPI Matte envy. 

It works very well and I hope to do some neat Matte art with it. I read reviews that it has formaldehyde in it so left too long on your natural nail and it will stain yellow. The Venique is Deviant Little sneaker and is a sheer black with Glitter. SO i'll probably wear it over another color. 

I need to remember to get more gelous soon toooo <3

I also bought some more sinful colors and found a good color close to Lumpy Space Princess. Its called Amethyst and it looks like a cheap match to my OPI Planks a lot Which is fabulous! I hope to find more cheap versions of my Adventure Time Nail colors for people on a budget. (I mean good close colors)

I also got the lovely blue called Savage.

And some more nail wheels! Lets see what designs I can cook up!

See you next time! 

Pink Wednesday #2 Neon!

My second Pink Wednesday and Neons are coming in to fashion again so I did my Sinful colors Pink, which is very neon-ific. I need multiple colors so i did a black french tip. I had used Pumpkin glow in the dark pink over it from Halloween but it doesn't glow :( I'm hoping its just old and not a rip off.

I used Gelous Base Coat, Sinful Colors Pink, Pumpkin Glow in the Dark Pink , Sinful Colors Black on Black and Sally Hansen Strengthening Top Coat. 

Yes two weeks in a row! I'm getting better at my blogging or maybe just getting less lazy about it.

A review on Cucumber Peel mask!

Pink Wednesday numero uno!

Finally painted my nails, I was disheartened when my nail broke pretty far down so i didn't feel like painting them for a while. Then they got worse and it kicked my butt into gear,and being (now) Wednesday, I did my  first pink Wednesday!

I love doing multiple colors so grey and pink seemed perfect, i used Wet N Wild Coloricon Diamond in the Rough, it was sheer so I used China Glaze elephant walk underneath. The Pink is L'oreal Paris Pink shells 222. it took about two coats and it's very pretty. 

I'm soon to be trying homemade recipes on health and beauty supplies and giving the rundown.

Pinterest is my new best friend. My fiance bought me mason jars and i'm excited to make remedies to store in them. Seriously Mason Jars are the best thing ever. Storage, cups, DIY crafts lights whatever you fancy!

All right reviews to come! 

stay  frosty. 

Mani: Silver and Gold

In celebration of the Olympics FINALLY ending (while the Olympics are great and I love that USA won) I find it incredibly boring to watch, usually because Basketball was on, but finally we are free and can celebrate victory!

So OPI Warm and Fozzie 

OPI Skull and Glossbones with China Glaze Hologram over it. 

I actually kept my last mani for a while and got quite a few compliments on it,it made me happy and excited to tell people the wonders of a simple make up sponge. :3

Looking Forward: 

All I can say is I've seen swatches of the O.P.I. Skyfall collection and I can say I want them!

Live and Let die is beautiful and the world is not enough is a fab golden glitter apparently with a hint of duo-chrome :D

I look forward to being able to purchase the German collection as well, (being German myself and having been there I can say I was quite excited when I heard of it I'll be trying them out as soon as I can get some!)

On another note! I've created a blog for fitness! 

I have a lofty goal of 109 pounds total to happiness but we will see what I can actually do.

You can see it Here:

also I made this the other day and wanted to share my #firstworldproblems

well that is what I have today, I'll be posting my reviews of some cheap masks I found at Wal-Mart soon!

Review Time! Mask and Pore Strip

While I was sitting and doing nothing I decided it was time for some face care stuff!

I rummaged through our Bathroom Junk Drawer ( you know where all the random bathroom stuff goes) and found a Beauty mask I had purchased at Forever 21 for a $1.80. It  comes with two pouches for two treatments and is fairly easy to open. They are perforated down the middle horizontally. 

the other thing to note is the English directions are on the top packet so if you don't think you'll remember the directions either look here (as I am about to post them) or use the bottom one first. 

(picture not my own)

So I decided to try it and let ya'll know What I think. 

The directions:

1. Apply Mask to dry face with dry hands evenly over face avoiding eyes and lips

Make sure your hands and face are dry, wet skin may prevent the mask from lathering.

2. Leave until the mask lathers.

3. Massage gently with fingertips for 30-60 seconds to cleanse

4. Wash off with lukewarm water and tone skin.

So Its kind of a pearl, gel and you spread it on your face and it actually lathers pretty quickly.

You rub it and it becomes foamy more than lathery and can dissipate if you go for too long. I needed a wash cloth to get it off as it kind of spreads if you splash water around. 

My face felt pretty dry after word and I was disappointed but after letting it fully dry and set in my skin feels really soft and the peach smell is so nice. 

Overall

 it worked for my skin. It feels clean, soft and doesn't seem to be having any adverse affects on my skin.

The price is pretty great too, I can definitely afford a few at $1.80 each. I will definitely try their other products. 

Biore Pore Perfect Strip

Tried and true classic. I'm more interested in others opinions on this but I'll give my own. 

Easy to put on, easy to do other things while waiting for it to "cement" and kinda hurts to pull off pulls off a lot but I feel it doesn't always grab everything it could, but it gets the job done. 

Should not be used by people taking medications such as acutane. 

I also know that doing it too often can lead to gigantic pore issues and them clogging up worse than before. I only use it once in a while. Usually when I super begin to notice my nose and dark tiny spots. 

Overall 

A classic solution to blackheads but I encourage anyone with a beauty school near them to go see the estheticians for treatments and advice at a low cost.

:D
