Sephora by OPI Mini-Haul - Hautelook Order

Hi everyone! How has your Tuesday been?

I think I figured out why I was so sluggish yesterday. Uncle TOM and Aunt DOTTY came to visit! I usually don't get cramps, not one bit, not at all. They just come and go within a week. But this time, I've been cramping all morning and it's barely day one. I think I'm gonna cry... Needless to say, I'm not having a less than pleasant day.

So a couple of weeks ago, Sephora by OPI was featured on Hautelook again, I could not raesist and placed another order. This time, I bought twelve, but only eleven has arrived safely. I'm not quite sure what happened to the last one, but I'll wait a couple more days until I contact them.

I don't remember how much these are originally priced at, but I got all of these for $3 each. It's still a little pricey for nail colors but I guess I shouldn't complain since they are high end and the quality is amazing!

As you can probably see, I got mostly shades of purple. I think purple compliments my skin tone well and they're quite a sight to see when applied. As much as I adore the purple shades, I couldn't resist the brights. So yesterday, I did my manicure in those brights you see there which I ended up calling Fiery Passion.

These Sephora by OPIs can and will last up to a week even without a top coat. I have tried it before and it has not let me down anytime. The application makes me not dread doing my nails as it was very quick and effortless.

If you're interested in picking these up, they're usually up on Hautelook on Mondays for their #ManiMonday event. If you do decide to give these a try, I recommend getting their creme formulas, one coat and you're good to go.

Alright, hope ya'll enjoyed checking out those beauties. I am off to go walk off my cramp. It hurts so much.

Thank you for visiting and thanks for reading. Come back soon! :)

Manicure Monday: Easter/Spring Inspired Nails

Heeeeeello Monday!  Hope all is well for you. I'm having a magnificent day...even though it's Monday. I know, I know, hard to believe.

This week's manicure is Easter and Spring inspired. I cannot honestly say this is my best work yet, or I am super proud of them, but it is what it is. It is not a total disappointment, but they didn't come out according to what I had planned and expected. I really hate to show you all less than perfect works, but there's no time to re-do them. I do sincerely apologize for that. I might do another set sometime later in the week, if I do, you'll betcha I'll post about it.

Remember the mini-haul post from Saturday? I had purchased a nail art express dry drops from Essence. I was rather skeptical about their claims of "drying the nails within seconds". I was able to put this to the real test. The results?... Amazing job! Two thumbs up! It literally took like two seconds after the droplets touched the nails. It was like, drop, touch, wooosh, dried! It was the most amazing thing I've tried. Love. It.

2-thumbs up, if I had more thumbs, they'll all be up!

I highly recommend this to anyone looking for cheap dry drops, fast drying nail drops, anything to speed up the drying of the manicure. It is ONLY $2,99 at Ulta.

I really hope you all enjoyed this post. Will you be doing your nails today?  Do you plan on doing Easter nails?

As always, thank you for your visit and thanks for reading! :)

Man Crush Monday, K-Pop Idol Edition

INFINITE's Kim Sunggyu - Idol, Singer & Dancer ; 24 Years Old

Okay....I can literally go on for pages and pages with this guy. I don't like to say it because I really don't believe there should be a bias in K-Pop, everyone is different, they all have their own charms, beauty and colors. That should not be compared and be rated. Even though I do not like this whole ultimate bias, I do have to say that of all the idols and Korean artists, old and new, I have this special bond with this Gyu Hamster here. He's often chosen last in attractiveness within his group,h is small eyes are apparently his down fall, his lack of energy, his age... It all does not matter to me. To ME, he is the most gorgeous  person I've ever seen. His eyes give him a mysterious vibe, his smile can seriously light up the room, his passion and love for what he does and his responsibility as a leader and love and care he has for his members. This is not to mention his intelligence and quick wit. He is sexy, manly, cute, adorable, everything rolled into one. This man here...this oppa is (dare I say) my ultimate bias...if there were to be one.

Please do NOT get me wrong. I have a special bond with him does NOT mean I only have him in my heart. With K-Pop, one cannot simply have a heart for one. 2PM, MBLAQ, BEAST, SS501, U-Kiss, CN Blue, BAP, SHINee, Infinite, VIXX, EXO,  BTS, GOT7...first gen idols, second gen idols, rookies and all, I love every single one of them. Because... K-Pop is life.
