Hey guys! Sorry, I have been kind of come and go lately. I'm just starting my second semester of school, so I have been busy with starting that! But I have haul *angelic music starts* for you guys today! This is kind of a two day little haul that I had over the weekend. I went to Sally's and got a nail art brush (finally) and China Glaze's Elfin' Around for like 3$ on sale!

Elfin' Around is a shimmery coral polish from China Glaze's 2013 Christmas Collection. This is so pretty and perfect. The application is amazing and it goes on in ONE coat! Here is one coat without top coat.

Then I went to Walmart and bought City of Lost Souls by Cassandra Clare (Mortal Instruments 5)! I have been waiting and waiting to buy this book! This is one of my favorite series' of all time! I love the covers on all the Mortal Instrument ones, but I think this one is very beautiful!

I finally have all of them, except for City of Heavenly Fire, which is not yet released. So now I can do this!

The next day, I went to Walgreens and got four polishes. Most of them were on sale. They have a sale going on right now, you get 2 Sally Hansen Complete Manicure polishes for $10. I thought that was a pretty decent deal so I picked up two from their Valentine's day rack. I also got one of the new Wet n Wild glitters and a Sinful Colors glitter!

Wet n Wild Jam Session:

Jam Session has a clear base with different shades of blue hexagonal glitters. On the bottle, they had a dollar off coupon attached! The formula was great and it has lots of glitter. I don't think that it is very original, but I gotta say that it is good for a $2 polish. Here is one coat over Wet n Wild I Need A Refresh Mint. (Sorry about my pinkie, I'm not really sure what happened there...)

Sinful Colors Ice Dream:

Ice Dream has a clear base with blue glitters and smaller silver glitters. This one of those glitters, where there is too much glitter. It is a very pretty polish but the formula is just really thick with glitter. It is useable but barely. Here is one coat over L.A. Colors Black Velvet.

Sally Hansen I Lilac You:

I Lilac You is a light lilac purple creme. I love this one soooo much! The color is beautiful and the formula is perfect! It isn't too thick or anything. Here is two coats with top coat!

Sally Hansen Wine Not:

Wine Not is a shimmery dark red. I have had this on my nails for 4 days. It's not normal for me to have a nail polish on for four days. I just haven't wanted to take it off. It is soooo beautiful! The formula is great too! Here is two coats without top coat.

Thanks for reading and have a great day!

Hey! I'm seem to smile every time I look at my new nail polish rack, which you can see here! Its nice to have all my nail polish in one place! But I'm getting off topic, today I have my lastest haul for you! Which of course, comes from target. It seems like every time I go in there, I always walk out with nail polish.

Sally Hansen Ooh La La Ombre Set in shimmery silver:

Deep Purple:

Deep Purple is a shimmery purple with some specks of pink and blue glitter. The formula is pretty good except that it goes on a little thick. I used 2 coats without top coat.

Gunmetal:

Gunmetal is a shimmery grey with a hint of blue. The formula was pretty good but it didn't dry very well. Here I used 2 coats without top coat.

Silver Streamers:

Silver Streamers is has a clear top coat with different silver and black glitters. This is my favorite polish out of the collection! I love the line glitters. I used two coats over gunmetal!

Sinful Colors Pink:

Pink is a matte neon pink polish. It surprised me for a few different reasons. Firstly, it was matte, I was not expecting that at all. Secondly, it was my favorite that I bought that day. I normally am not a big pink fan but I really loved this one! Here is 2 coats without top coat.

Here is two coats with top coat:

Thanks for reading! Which of these were your favorite? Let me know in the comments! Have a great day :)

Hey! Today I have a beautiful duochrome from Sinful Colors for you guys! Its called Gorgeous. What a good name for this polish! I saw this polish in Target and was automatically sure that I was going to buy it. It reminds me a lot of mermaids. I don't know why or anything. But it is either blue, aqua, or green in different lights.

The formula was kind of iffy. Just like most of the Sinful Colors polishes. They are only 2 dollars. So I guess that I didn't expect anything different. But I did only have to use 2 coats, so that was a plus. Plus this color is worth all the troubles. Here is two coats with top coat.

Hey guys and girls! I'm super tired, I got like 6 to 7 hours of sleep. I guess that is my fault because I stayed up until 2 in the morning listening to Panic! At The Disco's new album. "Oops" ;)

So I also went and got 2 polishes at Walmart yesterday! I got San Fransisco & Beau Khaki by Sinful Colors. Here they are!

Beau Khaki:

Beau Khaki is a dark olive green. Its very pretty and goes on in two coats. The formula is about as good as Sinful Colors' formula is going to get. This is 2 coats with no top coat.

Polish Info:
Brand: Sinful Colors
Name: Beau Khaki
Finish: Creme
Collection: Haute Rebel
Price: $1.99

San Fransisco:

San Fransisco is a shimmery forest green. This color is beautiful but the formula isn't very good. It took a really long time to dry and the polish moves when you go for the second coat. Its pretty thick too. Here is 3 coats with no top coat.

Polish Info:
Brand: Sinful Colors
Name: San Fransisco
Finish: Shimmer
Collection: NA
Price: $1.99

Hey! Today was not fun for me. I had a dentist appoitment and a ton of school work to do. I hate the dentist. I know, everybody does. But I just really do. I just had a cleaning but I have to go back in a month for a filling. School has just been pulling me from all ends. It's pretty stressful stuff.

Enough with my personal life! My September favorites are all nail polishes! I didn't buy any makeup this month because my eyes have been blood shot all month. From being in the hospital. So I haven't really been feeling the need to make myself pretty! These are 5 of my favorite polishes from September!
