NOTD Valentine's Day ♥

Happy Valentine's Day everyone!

How appropriate is this day to share my nail art from new nail polishes I picked up for spring.


(L) Mariah Carey by OPI in A Butterfly Moment
(R) CoverGirl Outlast Stay Brilliant in Tickled Pink


Mariah Carey and OPI partnered up to create a new collection inspired by the singing sensation herself.  This is limited edition and comes in 8 beautiful shades that seem to reflect Mariah's personality.  When I visited my local Ulta and saw MC's new polish collection, I was immediately drawn to this color called A Butterfly Moment.  This is a beautiful pearl pink with a noticeable gold sheen.  The formula is a bit thick, but I can't complain about how lovely it looks on my complexion.  This is a great neutral color perfect for spring.  If you have olive skin tone or warm undertones, I think this will work great for you.  Two coats is perfect enough for smooth coverage.


I was watching eleventhgorgeous review a couple of CoverGirl products recently. (watch here) The girls had a high review of the nail polishes that I had to pick up one color.  The one I have is Tickled Pink which is a hot magenta.  These trendy polishes allow you to skip the top coat because the formula leaves a long lasting shine.  I'm surprised by the price of these polishes; it definitely blew my mind.  I don't own any drugstore polishes so I'm really happy with this one.  The packaging is similar to Dior polishes where the top is removable.  The same goes for the Butter London polishes.  I definitely want to purchase more from CoverGirl.


Even though my nails look simple, the heart on the ring finger is a perfect touch for today.  I also have a video posted on my Youtube channel for you guys.  It's all about my favorite lip products that are suitable for today's holiday.



Enjoy your Valentine's Day everyone! Sending lots of cyber love

Valentine's Day Bold Lips

Still stumped on your Valentine's day look which is just a couple of days away?  Make your look simple but top it with a bold lip color.  Doesn't a red lip scream stereotypical for Valentine's Day?  Opt for something different like magenta or fuscia.


Check out my Youtube channel for the tutorial.

♥ My little princess has made her modeling debut in a toy supplier's annual catalog.  Her "diva" moment definitely shines in her picture.


♥ Have you ever Google searched yourself?  I did recently and check out the Images tab.  I don't know why photos of Kristen Stewart would come up as a result to my name.

♥ 3 weeks till the big move!
