This is something that I should have posted in July. I have excuses but who wants to hear them? Let us get into the final nail polishes I picked up from E.L.F.’s July 60% off sale. However, before we begin I must say, “I’m learning”. I am learning that I need to bend my strict rule of not buying a nail polish that is priced over $5 USD. With these hauls, reviews and wears I am learning that nail polish is about more than color. Who would have thunk it? Slowly I am starting to believe if I were to spend more than $5 on a nail polish of good quality but still below $10 (a limit still exists) then maybe it will not be as painful as I imagine. What brought me to this slow and stubborn revelation is E.L.F.’s “Bubble Gum Pink” nail polish.

Pamper yourself with delectable dishes… I do…well at least until I get serious about weight loss. While my fiance was out of town at the beginning of this month I had to feed myself. I chose to stuff my face while pleasing the palate with egg curry. It is one of my favorite dishes that is easy to prepare and even with recipe variations, never disappoints. Enjoy this recipe for egg curry I used from Mallu Spice.

Today in the mail I received my recent Sephora haul. Inside was Christian Dior Addict Lip Glow. I read online and saw on YouTube so many rave reviews about this product. The raves went on and on about how great they make your lips look and how the color will be your own personal color, your mother nature made color.

The look I did was real quick and photographed in my bathroom that has terrible lighting. For the eyes I used In the Groove mineralize eye shadow, with NYX black eye shadow to line the top lid, “Float on By” eye kohl from MAC’s “To the Beach” collection. On the cheeks, NARS’s “Lovejoy” (blush) and “Albatross” as the highlight. For powder I used MAC’s “Refined Golden” also from MAC’s “To the Beach” collection…love it! Finally, on my lips I used the oh so regretted “I Like it Like That” with “Chillin” cremesheen gloss on top.

During the first week of July I purchased and received items from MAC’s “In the Groove” collection. I hauled three lippies, two glosses, one skinfinish and two eye shadows.

In my E.L.F. 60% off haul I purchased a lot of nail polishes. I must be honest, I have been dreading the reviews simply because it is really time consuming to take off nail polish, condition my nails, apply a base coat, two coats of color then a top coat, wait for my nails to dry then photograph the color and finally write about it. I give a lot of props to nail polish only blogs. Blogging about nail polish is time consuming. With that said, let’s move on to EyesLipsFace.com (E.L.F.) nail polish in “Fire Coral”.
