Review: Sephora Nail Polish #58

Here is the other pink polish I have from Sephora. It's not *quite* as 80's shiny vibrant pink as #40, but it's still pinkolicious. Pretty much the same to say as the last review: goes on easily, dries quickly, and doesn't chip easy. Still a 4 outta 5 for how quickly the the nail polish runs out, but still totally worth it
4 outta 5!

Makeup Bag Must Haves!

There are some items that every girl needs to have in her bag regardless of what kind of makeup she wears. The first is Urban Decay Primer Potion. This locks eyeshadow and eyeliner on the eyelids all day. You know how after that long day at work and after that vigorous workout, your eyeshadow has seemed to disappear? Not so with this! Seriously! I have taken naps and done an hour of cardio, and my eye makeup looks just as good afterwards as when I first put it on that morning. It also helps to bring out the colors of whatever shadow you are wearing. Sheer colors that you have to put layer upon layer on just to get some color out of em only require a couple layers with this primer. It is seriously good stuff, and lasts a long time. A little goes a long way with this, totally worth the price! The next item is Clinique's Lash Building Primer. This locks mascara onto the lashes so that it doesn't flake or smudge. My favorite mascara of the moment is Benefit's BADgal Lash, but it seemed like half-way through the day, I had dark smudges under my eyes. After using this primer, my mascara stays on my eye until I remove it at night. It also aides in making lashes seem thicker and longer. What girl doesn't want that? This stuff is totally awesome!

Review: Sephora Nail Polish #40

I love hot pink nail polish, I don't care how 80's it is!!! I hail from the 80's, so how bad can that be? Hahaha, anywho, I love wearing pink nail polish in the summer, especially this color. I have another pink from Sephora that I'll be reviewing whenever I wear it again :)
I really like this polish as it goes on very easily and dries quickly. It has good staying power, as when this picture was taken I'd already been wearing it for 4 days and done a few loads of dishes! But once this polish starts to peel, might as well just take it all off, because it peels off fast. I gave it 4 outta 5 because I've painted my nails three times since I've bought it and the jar is getting really close to being empty. BUT I guess that is a)what you get for $8, and b) keeps it from sitting around on my makeup stand for a year and getting goopy and being thrown out. So not bad at all :D
4 outta 5!
