found this.


so i found this in my makeup bag and i vaguely remember purchasing it...so the color may not still be available. but i have to say that i love how quickly it set up...i've used other fast dry nail polishes and somehow i still always smudge them...this one set up before i could even think about smudging it! its a pretty coral color as you can see on my thumb nail...just thought i'd share with you!!

have a great day!

♥ products.

hey everyone...sorry its been so long since i posted but i've been pretty busy. so i wanted to update you on a couple of things going on with me and then i'm going to share about some of the new products that i'm using and some that i'm excited to try.

first, i just want to let everyone know that things with me are great. work has been pretty busy lately which makes the shift fly by...which is awesome, nothing better than looking to see what time it is and its almost time to go home! i finally got all of my plants into the ground or into pots on the back deck. my garden this year contains miniature roses, dahlias, hibiscus, hydrangeas, orchid cactus, carnations, pansies, violas, lilies, and one lonely grape tomato plant, haha. once everything is in bloom i will take pictures and post them! my dog and my boyfriend are doing great as well.

alright now onto the good stuff!! i'm going to start off with products that i'm excited to try. while trolling youtube the other night @ 3am i came across a youtube channel/vlog called budgetbeautiful and i started watching. well i kept hearing her talk about e.l.f. products, so naturally i googled the line...and i can not wait to get my order! a majority of their line is $1, yes you read that right, $1!!! they have some other products that are more than that but the prices still are really good. i love makeup but i hate spending the $$ on the products. so i'm excited to try these products because from the research i've done everyone seems to be raving about the products...i mean can you really complain too much when you spend a whole dollar on it vs. $5-$10?!? so check it out!! i hope you enjoy the site as much as i did!

ok now onto the products that i've recently been using and love...
  • i have pretty fine/thin hair so i love anything that gives me volume/body...and this product does it for me...samy salon's fat hair...i initially purchased this through HSN but later found that Walgreen's carried the line of products (which saves S&H charges) and if you watch your fliers you can catch it buy one, get one 1/2 off or buy one, get one free! i use the shampoo and the conditioner together and it gives me great results.
  • i developed sensitive teeth a few years ago and have tried a couple of different brands of toothpaste for sensitive teeth...usually i couldn't stand the consistency of the product...well the other day i caught a commercial for sensodyne: isoactive gel toothpaste...i've been using the product for about a week now and i have noticed a massive improvement in my teeth sensitivity. i also like how it foams up in my mouth...it makes my mouth feel extra clean & fresh.
  • luster teeth whitening system: i was skeptical because i've had deep stains on my teeth for a while and was told by a dentist that the only fix was to get veneers...i did look into them but i couldn't afford the procedure...my boyfriend bought this product for me because he knows how self-conscious i am about my teeth...i didn't do the full hour that is recommended but i did 3 cycles of the product and i can see an improvement in the deep stains...the product wasn't that hard to use and can be done multiple times up to an hour...i'll continue to do a couple of rounds at a time instead of a straight hour of using the product.

alright, i think that's it for now...i hope you find these reviews to be helpful...leave comments...ask questions...leave suggestions...i'll do a review of the e.l.f. products once i get them!
