Today's lazy weekend post will consist of my most recent haul. These Revlon Top Speeds were polishes I got on Saturday from Walgreens' special one day sale. Tons of couponing and sales resulted in each polish being only ~45 cents! Yeah, you read that right... Here are some bigger than normal pics for your viewing pleasure.









I think I did quite well for myself! Lol... So what do you guys think? Which color should I wear first??? Aaahhh, too many options!

An Awesome Deal & a Mini Haul

Hello beautiful people! I feel that it is my duty to tell you all about this almost too-awesome-for-words deal that I just recently discovered. Aveyou Beauty is currently having a 50% off promotion on the KGB Deals website right now. If you've never used KGB Deals before, it's very similar to groupon. Anyway, this deal gives you 50% off your purchase of $50. Yep, only $25!!! Buuuuut, that's not all. Aveyou is also having a 15% off deal with the code FIVE AND only $1 shipping with a $50 purchase. HOLY HECK!!! To put this into reference terms, it'd be like buying 7 OPI's for ~$25 bucks when they would normally cost ~$60!!! Umm, that's a little over $3.50 for each OPI. UNHEARD OF. And that's only OPI - there's also Essie, SpaRitual, and a ton of other beauty brands! 

Knowing me, I would totally splurge on all the continuously new polishes that are coming out so this deal is AMAZING. I am totally saving this for the all the holiday collections! To say that I am excited is an understatement hahaha. You guys, you all have to get this. Now. You can click HERE for this fabulous deal!!! I think there's only a several days left before it disappears. Don't say I didn't warn you when you all want to splurge come holiday time.  I know I'll be uber happy considering all the limited edition polishes that will be coming out soon =P...


OPI, Essie, CND, SpaRitual and mooooooore! (Source)


Okay, now that I've got that off my chest, I'd like to share an itsy bitsy haul that I accumulated a couple days ago. Like I mentioned previously, I went on a little nail polish hunting adventure and discovered some brands that I had never heard of before. Here are a few of the more unknown polishes I got on that little trip.


Aren't the bottles first three bottles a little strange 
looking? Lol... the polish caps are huuuuuge!



Here's a swatch of the middle polish. It's a black 
creme with tiny holographic specks of glitter


 L to R: Winmax #10, Winmax #9, Winmax #12, Ruby Kisses Aurora City, 
Ruby Kisses Black Hole. You can click to expand!


These bottle were all just $1 so I really couldn't resist haha. I got them all at hole-in-the-wall mom & pop type shops that were tucked into little corners around my neighboring cities. I also got the CQ polishes on my adventure too but they are considered a bit more common than these brands. Winmax #10 is an aqua blue glitter, Winmax #9 is a Kelly green glitter, Winmax #12 is (as mentioned above) a black creme with tiny holographic glitter, Ruby Kisses Aurora City is a dark teal with silver flakes & microshimmer, and Ruby Kisses Black Hole is a navy blue with silver flakes & microshimmer (almost has a Essie Starry Starry Night look to it).  Have any of you out there heard of these brands or colors before? If so, how do you like them? And don't worry, I'll be featuring these polishes in the future, I'm sure =).  Till next time my lovelies! <3

Essie Haul

So I've pretty much been on the hunt for a billion and one nail polishes to add to my growing collection. And believe me -- it's growing! At a really scary pace actually. I'm beginning to freak myself out a little hahah. I try not to look at my bank statements at the end of the month in fear of how much these babies have cost me. But, I digress... Here is my first ever Essie Haul!


These were taken indoors because it's been incredibly gloomy
as of late. Where did the summer sunshine go?!


L-R: Haute as Hello, Van D'Go, Splash of Grenadine, French Affair, Nice is Nice

 
L-R: Smooth Sailing (one of my lemmings!), Fair Game, Chinchilly 
(another lemming!), Sew Psyched, Mint Candy Apple, Going Incognito


But wait, the best part is... I only paid $3-$3.50 for each one! My hunt for polishes brought me to this random beauty supply that honestly looked a little sketchy before going in. Once inside though, I was in nail polish heaaaven. I can't wait to try these colors out. I've been itching to get my hands on some Essies. Now I have no excuse not to give these wonderful polishes a go! I can't wait for tomorrow's Pink Wednesday mani... I have something in mind that I think might turn out pretty awesome. We'll see though. I have a billion other polishes that I got in a massive haul which I will detail in a future post as well. This just sounds like too many polishes! But wait... too many polishes? NEVER!
