Recent NOTD
China Glaze With Love topped with Jordana Sequins, and China Glaze Glitter All The Way on the sparkle nail.
I found out that Sally's has upped their prices on China Glaze polishes (according to a response from customer service). The polishes were $4.99 if you had the Beauty Club card. I noticed that the last polishes I purchased from my local store were $5.49...which is what the advertised price for everyone currently is. So I contacted them about it and was bummed to find out that $5.49 seems to be the new price, regardless of sale, for the BC members. :/
Although I noticed that currently on the website China Glaze polishes are priced at $3.50 for members. I had a $10 off $20 coupon since this is my birthday month, so I placed a small order. I guess I could've spent $50 total and have gotten the "free shipping" but calculating the amount I purchased, I still was able to get them for a wee bit less than the website price with paying for shipping, so all is good.
Here's what I got:
Lubu Heels, Awakening, Rainbow. And from the Cirque Du Soleil collection: Get Carried Away, It's A Trap-eze, Bend Over Backwards
I kind of had buyer's remorse for Get Carried Away and Bend Over Backwards. I kind of wished I had bought Water You Waiting For and something else instead but oh well. Bend Over Backwards is awesome and I purchased it because I read a blogger saying it had a nice orange duochrome effect to it in some lights...but personally it's sooo similiar to Cranberry Splash. Bend Over Backwards is definitely warmer toned while Cranberry Splash is cooler toned but without seeing them side-by-side, they're too close for me. But I'll wear it. I'm just at the point to where I'd rather not have a lot of "repeat" colors unless it's something that I just can't get enough of or has something a little more unique to it that sets it apart (like I thought Bend Over Backwards would have that orange/red duochrome effect according to that review but I'm not seeing it at all). Reds are always classic though so it'll still be put to good use.
And yesterday I went to Kmart to spend my Shop Your Way Rewards cash (SYWR). Sears/Kmart will randomly give points ($) to people who are signed up with an e-mail address, and the points are usually good for a couple of days. I had some that they had given me and since there wasn't anything I really wanted from work, I figured I could go to Kmart and get some nail polishes...and I did. I also bought a dvd, which is really the only thing I spent money on. The polishes were "free" thanks to the points they gave me.
Wet n Wild Blue Moon and Night Prowl, N.Y.C. Classic Coral Creme (um, which clearly is neither coral nor creme, and probably not much of a "classic" color either, haha).
And a NOTD from last week. I was going for a slight galaxy/night sky nail (inspired by the glitter's name) and loved the way this one looked. Wished I had gotten better pictures but I'll probably do it again something soon after Christmas.
