Originally this blog was going to be sort of a catch all. Recently some things in my life have changed that have brought about a need to seperate the blogs. From this point forward this will be a purely fun beauty related blog, and my daily blog will be hosted elsewhere (will include at the end of this update for any interested) Meanwhile stay tuned as I have lots of exciting things planned for the upcoming months.
Some overdue Sinful colors reviews. Some palette reviews I have been putting off, as well as the new My Glam Bag Debut review :)
As always

This is about the fantastic, exciting, and awesome beauty stuff I love!!! Makeup has in the past been my stress reliever, I hope to be able to share my joy with you through this blog.

***SINFUL COLORS SWATCHES***
So I've been wanting to try this polish for a long, long time! Until today the only place I could find them was cherryculture.com but they were $2.50 a bottle, and since I am ALWAYS changing my nail color - that seemed a bit much (after you add shipping)
Then my sunday sales flier came and I saw they had them at Walgreens for .99. When I got there I found out the REGULAR price is 2.00. Way To Go on the markup cherry culture :/. Anyway... for your viewing pleasure....
REVIEW
Packaging: 4 of 5
The presentation is nice, though it reminds me of the Nicole by OPI bottles and I wish it had more originality. It is very sleek. 4 of 5 due to the inconsistency, the lid/brush part of the packaging is not uniform and some don't line up with the physical bottle itself while others do.
Opacity: 5 of 5
Overall the opacity is phenominal for a 2.00 polish. It's the first polish in this price range that I really only need one coat of polish to show true to bottle shade, as you'll see in my photos. I found the shades I bought (variety of light and dark shades) to even have more opacity than my Sally Hansen Insta-Dri polishes. Also drys fairly quickly.
Lasting Power: 5 of 5 (to be updated)
I painted my nails this afternoon, I've dug in the sandbox with my son, washed dishes, bathtime and diaper changes with no chipping or smudging!! I will update again at the end of a week.
Now for the Swatches:

Now for the Swatches:
Vacation Time: Very Creamy Nude Pink. Love This!!
My Soulmate: Bubblegum meets Barbie Pink
Dancing Nails: Try as I might I couldn't get this color to show just right
Very shimmery, The bottle shows the color better than the nail
Let's Talk: I've been looking for this color all summer
Very Satiny almost metallic Purple
Rich in Heart: This color is just GORGEOUS. The color
is actually closer to a burgandy, the flash brought the red
reflects out above the brown. Perfect for fall!
Let's Talk: This is the only color that dissapointed me. As you
can see the color in the bottle is a beautiful Navy Blue, on the nail
however it is a brighter metallic blue with purple undertones.
Still a pretty color, just not was I was looking for.
I have soooo many other reviews with swatches planned. But I promise to try and space them out.
Till Next Time~
