Nicole By OPI Disco Dolls❤

Hey dollies❤❤
Hope you all are enjoying your Mondays (or not lets be honest!) I honestly can not complain about Mondays right now because I am on mat-leave so everyday is the weekend for me. But I truly feel for all you working lady's! This weekend we took it easy because the next couple of weekends will be busy. I just focused on trying to find the perfect Easter gifts for my girls....Ava is quiet easy because she wants everything but I am having a hard time deciding what to get Ausyn. There is only so much a 2 month old needs. If any of you have suggestions I would greatly appreciate it!!

Anyways today I wanted to share some pics of a really great Christmasy glitter (why I am posting this in April who knows!) It is from the Nicole by OPI Kardashian Christmas collection in 2012. I picked it up from the discount bin for only $2 which is a steal for Nicole by OPIs which normally run from $9-$10!

Disco Dolls is a yellow toned gold glitter with some fuschia, spearmint, and silver glitters mixed in. They are all medium sized glitters and take about 2 coats to reach full opacity. It has a slight grit to it when dry but you can easily add a top coat to give it a nice glossy look and feel.

I have never seen a glitter exactly like this one. I really think it is a must have for the festive season. If you can get your hands on it I would! The formula is really great for a glitter. Not at all goopy which often happens with glitters. It is a little bit of a task to get off but you wont often find a glitter that isn't.

February & March Nail Polish Haul

Hey Beauties  ❤❤
I didn't post my February nail polish buys but still wanted to so I put the two past months together. After the February haul I wanted to try and only buy nail polishes I really want. Well I think I did well on that part but I was hoping this would mean I would be buying less nail polish.....that was not the case. I did buy much less then January but still purchased five nail polishes each month.

February...
I had been searching for the Mariah Carey collection all throughout January but Canada was late top the game as usual. I wasn't planning on getting the other two OPI's but they had a deal where if you buy three you get them for $8 a piece rather than $10 each. I came across Disco Dollz on sale for $1.99 and just could not pass it up!! It will be perfect for Christmas next year!! And the Zoya.......well Zoya is rare in Canada so as soon as I saw it I just could not say no!! I can see why people love Zoya so much!! It is an amazing polish!! The mini Nicole's are a gift set I received for V-day from my wonderful mother!!

March...
I really wanted Keep Calm, Paint on but was going to pass on it because of my little trying to cut down on nail polish idea. But then Sally Beauty Supply had their 2 for 10 sale on China Glaze and well need I say more?? At  the end of the month I went to the States and they have such great deals on nail polish in the states I always seem to find lots of bargains!! This time I actually didn't find that much and I think I bought the two sinful colors because I wanted to buy something (hate when that happens!!) When I got home I realized I have to VERY similar nail polishes already. I guess I have back up's now!! I was very pleased with Hot Chili Pepper though!! I always have avoided orange reds but I have been wanting to try some and Rimmel is so affordable it was a good brand to choose to see if I liked it!! 

                    Swatches will be up in upcoming posts :)

Nicole by OPI One Big Happy Fame-Ily

Hey Dolls ❤❤

Oh dears!! It has been a crazy couple of weeks!! There's really no excuse for deserting my blog for this long but man oh man I am not used to being this crazy busy!! When I cam home from work a week ago I noticed little splotches of bumps randomly all over Ava's body. They weren't red but she was itching them like crazy. Immediately I thought of chicken pox and started to treat them like they were (calamine lotion, oatmeal baths, etc.) Well, things got really bad after that but by the next morning they were gone. And then they re-appeared......and were gone again a few hours later. 
                                                                          ❤❤
So they were clearly not Chicken Pox but it took a few different trips to the doctor to figure out what Ava had (I'm still not 100% sure if I believe what the doctor says it is, I think they are just sick of seeing me lol!!) They say it was just a virus that takes a few weeks to get over, mmmmk!! I think it is some sort of allergies but we will see!! 
                                                                         ❤❤
Of course this all had to happen right when I go back to work. Just my luck right!! Hopefully things start to go back to normal from here on out. I have lots of posts for you guys that I really need to get up. Some hauls, lots of NOTD, and Swatches. I also have used up lots of products and want to start doing an empties post when I finish up products!!

This is One Big Happy Fame-Ily from the Kardashian collection (Fame-Ily, really??) 

Here I layered it over Julep's Lily. I like the outcome of this but thing I would love it over a lighter color (like Revlon's cloud!!)

I quiet like this polish although it was not what I expected. I have not tried many Nicole By OPI`s. The colors I have tried are quiet opaque and do not need too many coats. I was expecting a cream like polish with millions of micro glitters in it. What I got was a very sheer lilac with tons of gorgeous micro glitters. I really do love this and do not own anything quiet like it yet. Although I was hoping that this could be used alone I think it is much better as a layering polish. Four coats is not ideal for me and does not give off the vibrant purple that I want. Next time I use this I am going to use Revlon Cloud as a base. Maybe I will instagram a picture of it......

I found this polish in the clearance section of Shoppers Drug Mart for $2. I love the clearance bin!! The formula is not bad and very easy to apply.

January Nail Polish Haul

Hey girly's ❤❤

I know that this 'January Haul' is really late but I was not sure if I was going to do it or not. I have been 'hauling' all the nail polishes I purchase on my Youtube Channel, but I have never really done that on here. I've been mainly doing swatches and more in depth reviews on here (which I love) but hauls are something I love watching and reading so I decided to do it on here as well!! 

I think next time I will snap a group photo and then individual photo's of every polish so you get a close up of the color!! I really only drugstore shopped for polish last month. I was searching the salons for OPI's A Butterfly Moment but was unable to find it :(

                                                                 Top Left to Right: 
                               Wet n Wild Megalast Under Your Spell (Available Here)
                               Wet n Wild Megalast Bite the Bullet (Available Here) (Swatched Here)
                               Pure Ice All Nighter (Available at Wal Mart!!)
                               Sinful Colors Dazzle (Available Here) or at any Rite Aid!!
                               Revlon 281 Classy (Available Here)
                               Revlon 361 Mischievous (Available Here)
                       Nicole by OPI One Big Happy Family (I found mine at Shoppers Drug Mart)
                               Revlon 240 Impulsive (Available Here)
                               Rimmel London 60 Second Dry Caramel Cupcake (Available at Wal Mart)

I bought most of these when I went down to Seattle so I got much better deals then I would if I bought them in Canada (Most were $2 or less!!!!) You can usually only get dollar store nail polish that cheap up here!! I think I was most excited to see that the Rimmel 60 Second nail polish was back in Wal Mart!! I love that brand and was so sad to see it go!!
