Sally Hansen - The Real Teal

I picked this awesome polish up for $2 at Cosmetic Fragrance direct when i was in Melbourne at the DFO in January. There were tonnes of these just thrown into a big cardboard display box with another grey colour, which i also picked up. I actually picked up two of each. Why not for only $2 a pop! For anyone who knows Aus prices, that is very cheap for these polishes! I wish i had gotten a few more of the real teal as i love teals!









The real Teal is is a turquoise Teal with an turquoise shimmer. Perfect in two coats. You can see a bit of VNL in the top photo but it wasn't that noticeable in real life or in the sun. I'm sure a third coat would be ok if it's the type of thing that bugs you.

Sally Hansen Red Carpet

Hi all!

I don't usually wear a lot of reds but i got this polish in a grab bag from an awesome fellow Aussie blogger Tara over at Osirisandlokipainttheirnails
I looked at it and thought it had an awesome sparkle in it. I had a plan to use this in another way (that way coming soon) but I had the urge to wear it straight away!
Now that i've worn it, i'm keeping it and now searching for a back-up bottle lol.

What do you think? Are you a lover of red polishes?

Rainbow Favourites Blue& Glitter me up Friday.

Hi all!
Sorry i missed yesterday's post on Rainbow favourites. It was supposed to be green. I did do a manicure and took pics but i never got the chance to put them up. I will skip the green one and follow on with today's mani as it ties in with Rainbow Fav's and Glitter me up Friday. I totally thought ahead for this hahaha. I will pop in the green post either tomorrow or at the end. I'm all over the place, i dunno! I can never keep to any plan. hahaha

Anyone, onto today's Rainbow fav's and Glitter me up Friday. Today's colour is Blue!




Sally Hansen Blazing Blue.




Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Blazing Blue is a dark navy blue with a beautiful sapphire blue shimmer through it. When you can see the shimmer it looks amazing! This was two coats. You may get away with one coat depending on how you apply it. I'm not a big fan of the brush that comes with these bottles, they are so weird and i don't think they work that well for me. No top coat applied.




I then decided it wasn't enough glitter for Glitter me up Friday! haha
I added one coat of Nicole OPI Me + Blue which has small sparse holo glitter and even smaller silver glitter. I think i prefer it without but i wanted to add something. Not my finest work. Again no topcoat. I feel i really rushed myself to come up with something and forgot clean up too! =( Sorry about the weird positioning of my fingers. Those bottles are weird to hold!

March Haul: Embarrassingly heavy pics!

Hi guys,
This is my Monthly haul for March! It is embarrassing (but freakin' awesome!) the amount i have accumulated over this past month!   Hopefully i can hold out buying much in April... Although i did just buy my first lot of A England polishes last night! I got 4 which you won't see until the next haul post =P

I ducked into Terry White Chemist at the start of the month to see if the new Ulta3 Metallics were in but they didn't have any! (and still hadn't though out the month and also now) but i did find these in a little basket at the checkout on clearance.

Jumpin' Jade $8, Blazing Blue $8, Maybelline Ridge filler $2!!

 Then while in the same trip i strolled down to Kmart and they had Rimmel London on special for $4 off their entire cosmetics range! (Also while i was at Kmart i checked out their Sally Hansen stand and found the same Blazing Blue i had just purchased at TW only minutes before, for a mere $4!! Peeved much!)

Green with Envy $4, Mocha Fever $2, Azure $2

As most of you know i went to the Grand Prix earlier this month! It was awesome by the way! On the Monday before heading home we had a little bit of time to do some shopping. I knew Priceline had Orly's for $4.99 each and i couldn't find any at my local one before heading to Melbourne, so i had a look at a Priceline over there and found these 4 beauties. These are apparently old stock. The 30th Anniversary one is from 2005 and the others around the 2009 era! You could tell that these were old stock and had probably been sitting on a shelf in storage for many years. The few Pricelines i checked after this were all the same! They are still good though... They just need a little shake and they are good as new.

Fifty-Four (30th Anniversary Ed. came with a "30" keyring), Sugar, Walk down the Aisle, Vanguard Violet.

While i was at the same Priceline at Chadstone in Melbourne i spotted the Face of Australia Barbados collection. They were on special for $3.96 instead of $4.95. I picked up 4 (plus the Orly's) and headed for the checkout. 10 minutes later i went back for the other 4! haha

You blue me away, Calypso - Gold, Orange you glad you came?, Another Daiquiri Please.


Bright Lights.. Pink city, Let's go Scuba Diving, I like to Mauve it, Party at the Gap.

Then i went to Oz Nail and Beauty Supply in Braybrook (where i always have to go when i head to Melbourne) and picked up these Beauties!

Layla Magneffect Magnetics in 04 Turquoise Wave, 12 Black Metal. These were $12 each which was cheap for Layla magnetics.

China glaze White cap $6 and 2NITE $8, Orly Androgynie $8


 These from the China Glaze hunger Games collection:
Riveting, Foie Gras, Stone cold, Electrify. All $6

 These from the China Glaze Eye Candy collection:
Marry a Millionaire, Love Marilyn, Some like it Haute. All $8

China Glaze Magnetix collection:
You move me, Attraction. These were expensive at $12 which i didn't know until at the checkout but got them anyway!

And their Magnet.


Then i thought that was enough for the month, i had spent enough....... *gulps*
I went to Target to waste some time before starting work last Monday and got these at 25% off plus i had a $20 gift card to use.

Revlon Matte Suede in Ruby Ribbon, Radiant, Scandalous (aka Facets of Fushia) and Popular (aka Starry Pink) 


 So not being able to pick up the Ulta3 Metallics at Terry White, i emailed the Heat group and they sent me a list of chemists that had ordered in the new collection. Only three in Adelaide had, 2 in the Central Markets and 1 at Bridgewater. So even though Bridgewater is closer to me, i was heading to the Adelaide Central Markets anyway, so i picked these up only yesterday!

Copper, Burnt Orange, Shiraz, Pinot


Antique Gold, Cocoa, Jade, Enchanted.


So that was it! haha Hope you liked seeing what i got this month. Do you have any of these polishes? Which is your favourite?

See you next time
