Argon Oil At The 99cent Store?!

We all know that argan oil has been a huge trend for hair in the last few years. And I have been thinking of try some but I’m one of those people that really doesn't put a lots of products on my hair except for an anti frizz cream.

Anyways, I saw this Argan Oil from VIA Natural (1.5 fl oz.) I got from the 99cent Store and decided to try it out. Let me tell you, even though the price was $1 this stuff works. It leaves your hair silky, smooth and soft. A little goes a long way. Love it. Just may look for a bigger bottle.

New Year's Nail Design

Decide to do a New Year’s nail design but I didn't want to do something that was going to take all day to do and chip within hours. So this is what I did, nothing fancy but I love it.

 

First I painted all my nail with NYC “Black Lace Cream” let that dry. Then I use China Glaze “Glitter All The Way” with is just green, gold, purple and a little red glitter. I put the glitter on the cuticle part only. On my ring finger I drew a champagne glass with a gold nail art pen from Sassy+Chic. (Loving this pen).

NOTW 12/26/2013

I went back and forth on the idea of painting my nails for the holidays and what to paint. One because I was going to be in the kitchen all day, which meant I was going to be washing my hands a lot too. By the end of the day I decide not to do anything fancy and just paint them normally. Now my next problem was which color, glitter or not, red, green or silver? So I finally chose to go simple.

I decided to use NYC's "Broadway Burgundy Frost" with is a red polish with fine red glitter. Great for Christmas. This polish remind me of China Glaze Rudy Pumps.

Revlon Parfumerie Nail Polish

I finally got my hands on the most popular polish in the Parfumerie Collection “Wintermint”. I’m not one to jump on the ban wagon but this color is like something I haven’t seen before and the price was some what great $4.47. I also heard that this one is a dupe for Deborah Lippmann Mermaid's Dream that cost about $19 a bottle. 

Wintermint is a sheer mint color with fine silver glitter and  blue chunky glitter. The scent is of course winter mint. As soon as I open the bottle I could smell it. Thinking of getting more.

New Shoe For Christmas

For this Christmas I got some cute sneakers. Which I so needed cuz my other ones are getting way old. 

They are from the brand Champion and in a neon pink with lime green detail. I know how funky but a gift is a gift.

They are light which I love cuz I don't like shoes that are too heavy, they tire my feet out. 

Make Peppermint White Chocolate Mocha at Home

This year I decided to save some money and make Peppermint White Chocolate mocha at home, because a few trips a week to #Starbucks or #McDonalds can get a little expensive. Looking at some videos on #Youtube I saw the same recipe over and over. It’s a very easy recipe. And because of this bar I cut the ingredients for 3 to only 2. I found this peppermint bark bar at the Dollar Tree. It’s a white candy peppermint crunch bar great for this recipe.

This is a 4.5 oz bark bar and can make 8 peppermint mochas. Yay!!!

Peppermint White Chocolate Mocha recipe:

Brew or use instant coffee and brake a square into pieces and let them melt in the hot coffee. Add sugar to taste cuz this candy is more mint flavor than sugar. Put whip cream and crush mint candy on top and enjoy.

Nail Polish Thinner

So I finally decided to invest in some nail polish thinner. For someone who has tons of polishes, you need to get thinner to make your polishes last as long as possible. I choose to get "Beauty Secrets" from Sally Beauty Supply store. It's a 4 fl. oz. bottle that cost $4.29. It may not look like a big bottle but all you need is like 3-4 drops. This bottle is going to last me a long time.
