Hi-Definition

Hey Girlies,
     So you know that I love my Sally Hansen nail polishes. Some are a little hard to work with, but in the end out work out great. Except for the one I am going to tell you about. When the HD nail colors came out I really wanted some, they were a little expensive for me so I didn't buy them. Then I saw them at like a discount store, 3 for $5. The other two I got worked out great. So the one that didn't work out was BLU, a great royal blue. At least that's how it looks in the bottle.
     The formula is super thin and watery. When putting on the first coat, it tints your nails light blue. Then the second coat is just a pure streaky mess. In some spots it becomes a pretty royal blue. Other spots the color just comes off completely. I couldn't get a consistent color on any of my nails. Even with a third coat I couldn't get the color to be consistent.
     I am glad I didn't pay full price for it since the color is just terrible. Putting a white base wouldn't even save this nail polish. To get the color consistent is a nightmare. On the plus side the parts where it does become a bit opaque, the colors really nice.

  Stay beautiful, Rose

The Best for Less: Liquid Liner

Hey Girlies,
     I only like to use the best products when doing my make up. Regardless if it's an everyday look or something I only wear when going out. I wear liquid liner out to diner most of the time, there are a few days that I wear it to school. I was originally using the Lancome Artliner in 'Nior'. Now don't get me wrong it was the greatest eyeliner I have ever used. I could get a super fine line, that was still intensely black. The line would stay in place all day, even after my eyeshadow creased because I had forgotten to use a primer. The brush isn't really a brush at all. It's a felt tip, just like those really nice felt tip liners that came out. These however don't dry up as fast because your dipping them in the liner. The felt tip is what makes getting the line so precise, so easy. There are no bristles to spread out, the tip is just always at a point. Sadly when it ran out I didn't have the $30 to repurchase it.
     After watching and reading countless reviews on different liquid eyeliners I settled on the L'Oreal Lineur Intense. It does all the great things things the Lancome Artliner does, except for $20 less. This is one of my greatest drugstore finds of all time. When this tube runs out, I am sure to buy another one.

Try Something New

Hey Beautiful,
     I have been wanting to try out some new lipstick colors, like a deep red's and burgundy's. I was just afraid that I would spend my money and end up not wearing the lipstick at all, like most of the lipsticks I buy.  So while in CVS the other day, I feel like I live there, I thought of something great. I passed the NYC make up displayed and realized that I could get a great starter lipstick for only $1. Not only that but the formula isn't that bad, the lipstick isn't drying at all. Surprisingly it's even a bit moisturizing. I got mine in Sheer Red, since it was a color closest to what I was looking for. There wasn't the greatest color selection and I'm not sure there is a large selection, but they have all the basic colors.
     So go bold, do something new ad brave. Try a new lipstick color you were other wise afraid to spend your money on.

  Stay beautiful, Rose

Happy Anniversary

Happy Anniversary Beautiful,
      So far we have spent one beautiful year together. It has been a great year and I have enjoyed every single second of it. I hope you all have enjoyed it too. I'm not really sure what to say here. It's our anniversary, we've been together for a whole year. I can't wait to spend another year and many more years with you. So here to another exciting, adventurous year ahead of us.
     I know I haven't been posting much, but I have just started my freshman year in college and I'm just trying to get used to the change. I have a lot more reading to do than before,but  not much homework yet. I promise I will always get at least one blog or video up a week.

  Stay beautiful, Rose
