China Glaze The Giver Collection Swatches

 *Purchased by me*

Hello there my pretties!  I am a little bit giddy as I type this post.  You know how sometimes life becomes awesome on all fronts for no apparent reason?  I am going through one of those phases right now.  Things have just been going really well for me and what started as a super crappy year has turned into a memorably awesome one, to say the least.  You guys, I went back to work last week, after five years!  Ahhh, it feels so good, I feel like my makeup has a purpose each morning when I get ready for work!  LOL!  Anyways, I am technically on a 30-day probation, so I hope I am not jinxing myself by sharing this now because I really like it, but I am feeling pretty confident one week in.  I'll let you guys know if I passed probation it in about three weeks!

The collection I am sharing with you guys today, I have been figuratively sitting on since this summer!  I had initially thought about passing a few of these shades up, but now I am SO happy I got them, because I also got a ton of lashes!  Sally's was running an offer where you got a free pair of Ardell lashes with the purchase of two China Glaze polishes at the time.

Anyways, here is the China Glaze The Giver collection!!!

Sinful Colors Holiday Wishes Collection

*Purchased by me*

Hi guys!  I hope everyone is having a great morning.  We have a stomach bug here, courtesy of my child's 47 student Kindergarten class.  Just kidding, they are actually off this week on fall break, so I have no idea where this is coming from, but it's no fun!  We had planned on taking my daughter and nieces to Chuck & Cheese today, but clearly that is not happening anymore.  I guess there is always the weekend, we'll see how we feel tomorrow.  Today I have the Holiday Wishes... collection from Sinful Colors to share with you.  This collection is made up of eight shades that are either re-promotes or part of the core line, so no new shades for us today.  However, the shades that are included are pretty awesome and there is a ton of layering potential among them, but don't take my word for it, let's go check them out!

Sinful Colors Holi-Dazzled Collection

*Purchased by me*

Hello there my pretties!  I am going to be posting a whole lot of Sinful Colors in the coming days.  If you were not aware, Walgreens is running their ninety-nine cent Sinful Colors sale again, and it includes all the SinfulShine line polishes.  I am not sure if the Holiday collections have landed at Walgreens yet though, I have seen them at Rite Aid and K-Mart so far, so just an FYI.

So back to today's post: I am super excited, we have two new Sinful Color Shades!  Shall we get to it?  Let's get to it!  Here is the Sinful Colors Holi-Dazzled Collection:

Sinful Colors Shining Lights Collection + Prosecco Giveaway!

 *Purchased by me*

Hello my pretties, I hope everyone had a safe and fun weekend!  I have not been able to blog as much as I would like to, my mornings suddenly start two hours earlier and it really puts a dent in my swatching time, which is usually done late at night, so I am still adjusting to this new schedule.  BUT!  I have a mini give-away for you guys at the end of this post today, so let's get started!

Today I have the newest collection from the Sinful Colors SinfulShine line: Shining Lights.

*Press Release*

Gabriel Cosmetics is headed down South just in time for fall with Brooke Anderson by Gabriel Cosmetics Nail Collection! The collection of SIX “5-Free” Limited Edition shades are a wink and a curtsey to the Entertainment Tonight Host’s Southern Georgia roots infusing beloved Southern expressions from classic films like Gone with the Wind and everyday Southern terminology into a collection fit for a Southern Belle (Don’t we have some of them in LA?)!
