I am in love with this polish I picked up at Priceline the other day. Aussie ladies you'll be happy to hear it only cost me $4.99 clams! Amazing, isn't it? I saw one from another brand that was closer to $8, but I looked around all of the stands to find this exact same colour much cheaper.

I've only had it on for a day so I can't comment on wear yet, but I loved the application and the colour speaks for itself. It suits me down to a tee! :)

Oh, and BTW - I uploaded a new review on my new amazing Lifefactory Glass Water Bottle. If you're worry about PET leaking into your drinking water this is definitely something to look out for.

I know they're available here in Australia from Biome, but I'm not sure about in the states.

I just saw one of these yesterday at my pharmacy and was thinking of getting one, now I probably will :)

(your nail polish looks great in the video)

OMG I AM SO HAPPY RIGHT NOW. I *finally* found a reasonably priced Urban Decay Naked Palette on EBay Australia.. it was AU$66, including delivery from the UK, and it contains the UDPP and the glide on pencil. :)

Can't wait, I'm totally going to stalk the post-man. ;)
 
I so need to do my nails. I'll probably just do the incoco press on polish...it actually looks pretty nice and lasts a few weeks. <3
 
After 3 weeks from Shellac removal my nails are still peeling like an onion :(

In other beauty news, my husband did her hair yesterday.

Sorry I've failed to find one for you...but I'm so happy you've found one!!! =D
 
PI, I wish you guys were close enough so he could do my hair. I'm in the market for something new.
 
Product for growing your eyelashes

My tiny daughter was so lucky to get super long eyelashes from her daddy.

I want them too.

I think I heard something about a prescription eye product that caused the lashes to grow and now is sold for that. Can't find info. Google search gives scammy info.

Anyone know?

:D
 
It's a product called Latisse. http://latisse.com/

The commercials have a warning of "increased brown eye pigmentation" which is why I have not used it personally, and as far as I know, it is fairly expensive. I'm not sure if insurance covers it, and what the price would then be, but I remember it being about $150 + per "treatment".

Hope this helps :)
 
so i am disappoint. :( my hair didn't quite turn out like i'd hoped. i like it but it's not enough of a contrast between the tip and root. i'm so not a confrontational person so at the time i said i liked it, but i have left the colorist a message and i'm going to tell her i'm a bit underwhelmed. this stinks...

in other news, for you ladies liking the Shatter nail lacquer - BEHOLD:

a certain awesome person sent me some Lumigan samples. Lumigan is used to treat glaucoma but after several weeks use, patients were finding their eyelashes were getting longer and thicker and the medication is now also marketed under the Latisse name for eyelash growth.

anyway, i was using it religiously and took "before" pictures and had never got around to taking “after” pictures; then i got lazy on applying it and my lashes are back to their original pathetic state. :( i have just started my regimen again.

the brown iris pigmentation doesn't bother me because A. i have brown eyes and B. i've read that warning was for glaucoma patients who were administering it IN their eye. for eyelash growth, it's external application - you just line your upper lash line. fwiw, i didn't experience any negative side effects.

if you have a friend or know someone that works in the ophthalmology sector, you can always try to get your hands on some Lumigan like i was lucky enough to do. otherwise, prescription Latisse is very expensive - $100+. also, i don't think insurance would cover it since it's more of a cosmetic deal than anything else (though, i'd love to hear if your's does, Z I G!).

you can also try some of the mascaras they have on the market that promise to enhance your lashes.

Good for you. The stylist should give you what you want. Maybe they went easy on you being a colour virgin.
