Milani Bet on Red

Milani Bet on Red: A Continuation of My Love

I’m not sure if it’s because it’s February or that yesterday was Valentine’s Day but, I have discovered a new found love for the color red.

I think it started with Lush’s A Million Kisses Lip Tint; something about that ruby red hue screamed chic.

Naturally, given my new color infatuation, when I stumbled upon Milani’s Bet on Red in my Little Red Dress Beauty Bash gift bag I couldn’t help but share it with you.

Several months ago I shared with you all my slight infatuation (obsession) with blue nail polish. Well, I was not at all in the market for another bottle of blue hue but, of course, I just can’t say no to a sale.

Originally I headed to Ulta, with my $3.50 off coupon in hand, to pick up a 2 oz bottle of Hair Rules‘ Nourishment Leave In Conditioner. The plan truly was for me to grab the product and head to the front counter.

OPI Bronzed to Perfection Nail Polish

OPI Bronzed to Perfection

I was cruising the clearance isle at Ulta on Christmas Eve (I know, shame on me for last minute shopping) and came across OPI’s Bronzed To Perfection .

Lately I’ve been drawn to matte colored nail polishes; hues with no shimmer or glittery shine. But, for some reason, be it the holiday season or the fact that it was on sale for $4.99, Bronzed Perfection caught my eye.

After picking up a few more items I headed to check out. The associate that assisted me raved about how much she loved the polish and how she actually purchased the entire collection, OPI South Beach Collection.

Nails Tell It All: “What Does Your Mani Say About You?”

It’s no secret that I’m an avid fan of nail polish. In any given month you are sure to find a number of posts dedicated to my newest finds.

Am I “polish obsessed” or do the numerous hues I wear speak to who I am or my mood?

Well, according to Carolyn of Pretty City, and her informal study of manicurist, friends, & family, your manicure “can lend insight into your age, your sense of style, and even your state of mind.”

While at Pretty City & Shape Magazine’s Beauty Sample Sale I had the please of receiving a mini manicure from Nail Technician in training Peggy.

I have been on a quest to sample as many nail polish colors as possible this Fall/Winter. When I laid eyes on China Glaze Chocodisiac I knew I had to give it a try.

Warm earth tones are right up my alley. Plus, anything resembling my favorite sweet snack has to be for me! :)

Essie Carry On Nail Polish

“Carry On” with Essie

Rounding out the trio of Essie’s Fall 2011 Collection is the deep purple hue Carry On.

In comparison to Lady Like and Glamour Purse, Carry On is my absolute favorite for the season!

I can’t get enough of the dark purple color and its ability to take you from day to night. I give Carry On two big thumbs up!

As a special note, after wearing Essie’s polish over these past few months, I must say, it has amazing staying power. Applying a base coat, 2 coats of polish, and a top coat helps my manicure last for days without chipping.

Fall is now upon us! What better way to pay homage to the cool weather than to spruce up your nails.

I look forward to Fall because I love layering, completely off topic, and the dark hues it brings.

Essie’s Fall 2011 Collection contains some great colors that perfectly salute cool temps while complimenting the skin.

A few weeks ago I reviewed Lady Like. Well, here is my take on Glamour Purse

Fall is almost here and you know what that means, new nail polish trends and colors!

While in New York for Fashion Week I was gifted a few of Essie’s new Fall 2011 shades and could not wait to share them with you!

Since we can’t officially pull out our blazers, although it has been a little on the chilly side in Atlanta, I thought I would start off with what I consider a transitional hue, a polish that could easily pass for a Summer or Fall shade.

Blue Nail Polish

My New Infatuation: Blue Nail Polish

While watching an episode of The Real Housewives of Atlanta, I know, guilty pleasure, I spied one of the ladies sporting some fierce blue nail polish. I could clearly see her polish because this particular scene, like many others, included a healthy dose of finger pointing & hand waving.

So, after watching this certain housewife & her bright blue nails I thought I would give blue a try.

On a thrifting trip several months ago, I purchased Nabi’s Neon Blue. I actually posted about this polish and the others I purchased. Well, this weekend was my first time wearing Neon Blue and, I’m in love!
