2012 Favorites || Swatches

Hello There!

Because I am a fool and I lost some footage, I thought I would show some swatches from some of my favorite 2012 products. Not everything I mentioned in my video will be shown here, so I will link the video at the end of this post. But I thought you should all see the shadows and lipsticks I loved up close and personal.

New Videos!

Hello There!

I know that I have not written in whats seems like forever, but I thought I should let you all know that a new video is up on my channel! Finally, I got around to editing my now VERY late December favorites. I also filmed the "Furry Friends Tag," where I professed my love for my puppy. I was tagged by GmaorousGaby on Youtube. I will give an update on my life very shortly, but I hope you will all see what I loved at the end of the year, and how much I love my puppy!





I hope you all had a lovely new year! What are your plans for 2013?

A New Love || China Glaze's Ruby Pumps

Hello There!

I have had so many recent loves! I love discovering new and exciting products. But today is a little different; I thought I would talk about a nail polish!  have so many red nail polishes, so when people kept raving about this polish I just assumed it was nothing special. Yet seeing the cutest miniature bottle of China Glaze's "Ruby Pumps" in Sally's sucked me in. And now I see what all the fuss was about. This color is so beautiful, and tops all my other reds.


"Ruby Pumps" is amazing, not just because it's a beautiful classic red shade that is great for the holidays, but also because it has finely-milled red glitter throughout the polish that gives it that festive touch. You can see the glitter, but it isn't overly chunky. I love that the glitter is still subtle so you can get your "glitter fix" without it being obnoxious. Sometimes I'm not in the mood for tons of glitter! So if you're like me and you don't like glitter city, then this polish might be for you.

What I also love about the China Glaze formula is that it lasts for ages. I also own China Glaze's "Call of the Wild" from the safari collection, and that polish lasted over a week, with only slight wear and tear. And this polish is no different. I will definitely be picking up more China Glaze polishes in the future. 

I would highly recommend picking this bad boy up.

Have you tried "Ruby Pumps" yet? What do you think of it?

P.S. I talked about this polish and many others in my "holiday nails" video, which I will link here.
