Nails of the Day/Week

Hey guys so I decided that I wanted to start doing a post every time I paint my nails which tends to be around every week
So here we goooooo

Let's start with some pictures
Cynthia Rowley - No name


Sinful Colors - Fiji

Zooooooommmm


Different Lighting

So as you can see I used 2 Different colours for this look.
The pink one is from Cynthia Rowley and to say it flat out I HATE IT. I have two colours from this brand and they both apply streaky and are a pain to work with.It also chips sooo easily  Plus THEY HAVE NO NAMES!!
The purple one is Fiji from Sinful Colors. This polish applied like a dream <3 It does take 2-3 coats to get the desired but doesn't chip for about 4 days with no top coat (Could last longer but I'm on day 4 right now)
So that's it :) If there is anything else I should include next week just comment below :)

JULY IPSY (SPOILERS)

Ok so I know that last month I pretty much failed at blogging for all the spoilers and such but that was only because of over working for CPTS and the fact that I skipped (Not voluntarily but I don't mind any more I think I would of hated that bag{Well everything except for the actual bag which was beautiful})  But I'm back and super excited and ready to show you the spoiler (GAHHH Just saw a huge bee one my window....)


Spoiler #1 (PIC TAKEN BY MEEEE)

So the first spoiler was sent to inactive members of the ipsy community and its BENETINT!! WHOOOWHOOO Like I said on MUT my reaction to this was like a girl laying eyes on Zac Efron for the first time..... Yup you understand (If you haven't been basked by his beauty yet I took the liberty of finding this beautiful picture for you http://goo.gl/WHjjc)
And for those in fear of this coming in a little bitty sample size it is said that these seem to last for ever!! And!!! IF your able to read the fine print we are getting 5 PRODUCTS this month... PARTY TIME!!

WHOOOHOOO Some kind of chubby lip stick pencil mahbob!!!! I'm I the only one sensing a lip theme?
I haven't tried anything like this (Unless you count the NYX Jumbo Lip Pencil) These look to be our second? POP beauty product! And I actually didn't mind the mascara so I'm excited to try out some more :) Though these only retail for about $4.17 (IF full size) It is a product I look forward to using
What colour do you guys Like ------->
I'm ok with any but I really like the corally red colour at the top!!

JULY GLAM BAG (OFFICIAL) SNEAK PEEK #2:
Sun or city, guard your skin from spots and wrinkles with this instant summer fave!
(Taken from Ipsy's website)


Thanks to MUT's super sluthing I am able to share this spoiler at 1am (Yay?!) Not much is known about this product yet (It is one of Ipsy's best spoilers in months!) But from the caption we can infer 2 things the theme is something along the lines of Fun in the Sun and that this product has SPF but isn't exactly sunscreen.
UPDATE: It is 99.99% positive that this is Coola Face SPF 20 Rose Essence Tint! I am ok with this as long as it is what I think it is and actually provides some kind of tinted coverage..






Ok so this might be confusing... well it is for me but it's super informative so yeah...
Michelle Phan's friend posted this picture on Instagram and then quickly took it down, but someone was amazing enough to catch a picture of it so here it is

Heres the link to the poster full credit goes to them

Neutrogena - The gift of healthy skin sample review!

The box isn't it perrrrtty!!??
 Hey Guys, Recently I decided to continue my little  sample addiction and sign up for this --->
I was able to chose 5 things out of 8 (If I remember correctly)
Right now they are sold out but it will continue again soon http://promotion.neutrogena.ca/
How it looked like when I opened it!!
An overview of what I got


I ended up receiving two samples and three high value coupons!!

Just the top of the box (nothing interesting)












Coupon #1
Coupon #2
 This first coupon is for $15 off ant Rapid tone repair product which can range any wear between $17-$20













This coupon is for $5 off and Neutrogena Naturals product which can range between $3-$13




Coupon #3







The last coupon is for $5.00 off any Neutrogena grapefruit product. These can range between $5-$8 each. I personally tried the pink wipes (Pictured) And really hated them though I am open for trying a different product



Sample #1







I am gonna start off with if my calculations are correct this sample is only worth two dollars...Am I sad? NO!! Why? Two Reasons a) It's not a foil sample b) It was FREE
Overall the ultra gentle daily cleanser (Foaming formula) has a slight soapy scent but nothing too overpowering and is clear in colour. I think I have a problem because I feel like I'm not getting a deep enough clean with this (Whatever), It also doesn't foam directly on your face, you need to rub it on your fingers, and even then the foam is not really there....but I do think this is quite comparable to the simple facial wash

Sample #2
After trying the grapefruit wipes I wasn't all that excited to try these but I did and these aren't half bad. The took off most off my makeup (Pictured below) aside from a bit of liner and don't make me feel sick, unlike the grapefruit. I do prefer my 2.00 cheap, random brand wipes better but these are not bad and I will happily use them. The value of this sample is about $3.36..Not bad!!






AFTER



















Overall I would say keep your eyes peeled for more neutrogena samples!!!
