Pure Ice Nail Polish

I really think the previous Pure Ice Nail Polish I have posted on my blog should have
been called Darkside. (lol) 
I really feel name does not fit, but this is Darkside. Lovely super fine purple glitter 
polish with chunky holo hex glitter.
You can find this Pure Ice Nail Polish at Walmart for $1.97
Size is .5 fl oz.

Both pictures I did 2 coats. 
This is one coat over one of the recent Sinful Colors Nail polishes I got. (Forgot name)


Disclaimer: This was purchased with my own money.

Pure Ice Nail Polish in Irreplaceable

Good Afternoon, today I have a polish from a recent haul. (kinda recent)
This is Irreplaceable from Pure Ice's new permanent collection. 
Don't quote me on that though, LE??? Idk...but any way this picture I had swatched
couple days ago but happens to be what I am wearing today. :)
I have several black shades with glitter but not like this exactly.
This is a black tinted polish with SUPER fine round black glitter with medium sized chunky 
hex silver glitter. 
Dries fast, does not smell horrible and very affordable at $1.97 at Walmart.
(Which is an AWFUL store btw.)
Pure Ice's Cosmetics are Cruelty Free and 
are also 3 Free!!


You can also purchase Pure Ice online, although I notice a lot of the newer shades
are not on the site. 
Left side with one coat and right side is 2 coats.

BlackHeart Nail Polish in Bruiser

I have another Black Heart polish to show ya today.
This is my second favorite polish from this brand. I've used it twice so far but 
I haven't really gotten through the bottom color. (Which is what I want)
But any ways this is 2 coats.

Just so you guys know Black heart polishes do contain Lead. Not sure if its a significant amount but BH's Website does let you know that they do contain lead and do not do anything to hide this. You can read the warning Here. The notice will be in Red underneath the product information.

BlackHeart Nail Polish in Glow Pastel

Good Afternoon!!
Today I have a polish from a recent purchase from Hot Topic.
These are  retail $5 each but I have noticed they are usually on sale for Buy 
2 get 1 FREE. :) 
You can find these at Hot Topic or at Black Heart Lingerie.
Ok, First of all these are unlike any polish I have tried before. 
There are 2 layers and most of these have different finishes. 
The center blue is actually a glittery shade thats really pretty.
While these are pretty cool; I feel since I have so many polishes, I won't be able
to get through most of this nail polish color to get the affect of the other colors. 
I've since these bottles before I was in love!! I might have gotten these
purely for the bottle! Aren't they just cute?!?!
Do I regret my purchases on these whatsoever?? NO.!!


Pic on left is one coat. Pic on right is 2 coats.

In left pic you can see that I could get some of the pink layer and it applied oddly. After the second coat though, it started to look better. These also have a (glows under backlight) sticker, but I do not have a black light so I cannot test this.  You can also note that I got some of the glitter from the second layer in the purple and it somewhat looks cool. lol. This polish came out semi- matte. :)

Glade Expressions Oil Diffuser Starter Kit Review


Hello ladies!! 
I have a different kind of review for you guys today.

I am a BzzAgent and I bit ago I was able to try out some Glade products by being given a free coupon for one.
 Today I will be discussing  the oil diffuser starter kit.

I went to my Harris Teeter and picked up this scent in Pineapple & Mangosteen.
I am not positive of the price but Im sure it ranges from $5.99 to $7.99.
 The scent smells really nice, it reminds me a pina-colada. If I am correct there aren't a lot of scents to choose from with the Starter kits, which is kind of a bummer because the only other scent was Lavender. (Not a fan of the scent.) While the Lavender scent fit more with my home decor, I didn't love the scent so I am disappointed in that.

Regarding scent and strength, I think it could improve.
I have it in my kitchen by my sink and most of the times I  do not notice the scent.
Occasionally I will shake the holder to get a whiff of it as I do housework and what not.
I used to have my starter kit above my fireplace and If I have my fan on the scent distributes throughout the living room and dining area nicely but I feel as if the kit could dry out faster that way.

Wet N Wild Coloricon Toppings Collection


Good Afternoon, 
Today I have a limited edition collection from Wet N Wild. 
My boyfriend picked these up for me at Walgreens Saturday for $2 each.
While these are $2.99 retail we managed to get them for $2 with a coupon that was set to expire
that day.  

They contain . 33 fl oz.
(Regular sized polish has around .5 fl oz.)

Now onto my review. 

 WHile these look really smiliar in the bottles they are in fact different. 

The similarities in all of the 6 polishes in this collection are that they contain small fine gold glitter ( with the exception of  Confections) and small multi colored hex-shaped glitter.  Sprinkled, Frosted, Chip and Icing have the same pink/red iridescense to them. 


Gimme and confections are the only 2 shades in this collection that do not shift in color.

Sprinkled and Frosted are sort of similar. The shift in color in sprinkled is more obvious than Frosted's color shift. 
Sprinkled's shift is from blue to a pink/red color. 
Sprinked has more of a blue iridescense 
and Frosted has a prominent  aqua iridescense. It also has slight duo chrome finish to  pink/red.  Its a possibility that Frosted may contain a duo chrome finish, but im not 100% sure.  You have to really look at this shade to see the shift.  


There is a striking resemblance between Chip and Icing, and I believe that you could use one or the other and not be missing out

Chip has the pink/red color shift  that icing has but isn't as prominent in Icing than chip unless you look at chip at an angle. 


Down below I also show you how I store them as the shape of these are very awkward and wont
fit in nail polish racks. :)
******If you have the nail polish rack made out of foam, this will fit in those racks!!!*****
I hope nothing was confusing and if you have any questions please feel free to ask. :)

Color Club Nail Polish

Hello Ladies! and (Gents?)
Here I have a Color Club nail polish swatch I've had pictures of 
but never put up.
This is an amazing color. My eyes didn't even want to focus
on them, they are that sparkly/holo. 
This came in a 7 polish pack at Ross for $7.99.
None of the polishes are named. 
Does anyone know what the name of this shade is called?!?


This is about 2-3 coats.

Wet N Wild 3 Pan Eye Shadows

Hello!! Good Afternoon :)
Today I have 3 trios from WNW that I picked up 
for about 80 cents each last weekend. 
These retail for $2.99 at Rite Aid, CVS and Walgreens.
Walmart also carries Walmart. 
My favorite trio is I Dream Of Greenie. I HAVE WANTED THIS FOREVER!! 
It looks so pretty right??? It is because it is, it's even better than I thought
it would be. I did end up using this the first day I got it and I love it. 
Heres how I wore it other day.  Eyelid color on eyelid and crease color on my crease. lol
Love these trios, no complaints what so ever. 
They apply nicely and blend well. 
I used New Wet N Wild Fergie Eye Shadow Primer with this.

Cosmetic Arts Nail Polish

Good Afternoon!!
Today I wanted to show you how pretty these polishes are. 
I haven't really used them since I got them (which was a WHILE back)
I underestimated how good these polishes looked for some reason.
Man was I wrong!
These are $1.99 at Ross Stores and they do not have names.
So just swatches :)

Sadly last time I was at Ross I did not see these polishes there anymore. :/

DIY With TKB Trading Mica Pt.1

Hello!! 
I've had some Tkb Trading Micas for a while now that I meant to press
and make bases for but never did. 
I finally decided to pull some out and make some polishes with them.
Last week there was a sale on Wet N Wild Products and Coupons for $1 off.
I stocked up on some black nail polish to mix with my micas and now I have about 7 beauties
to show you guys. :) 
All micas are mixed into Wet N Wild Wild Shine's Black Creme. 
I purchased the Samples of the Micas for $1.50 a color which includes lots of product for cheap, WOOT!
Names above the pictures will be the Mica I used.
Most Polishes were opaque in one coat. 
You can find TKB HERE
