Summer on my fingertips

I don't care if its gloomy outside. These new shades of nail polish alway brighten up my day and my fingertips! Now that summer is right around the corner I love to wear bright bright shades of pink, tangerines, sunny yellow and berry. Love it!


N.Y.C. nail polishes surprisingly don't chip off but they do start looking crummy after a few days. Well they are after all $1 :) These are my two favorites at the moment and I can't decide which I like better.

This one's called Times Square Tangerine Cream (112A)











This one's called Pink Promenade Creme (109A)

and sadly this one's discontinued....Taxi Yellow Creme (114A)

For NYC's affordable and summery colors, I rate them at

Stuck in a Purple Haze

Recently I've been in love with the color purple. Purple shirts, purple converse, purple headbands. Purple, purple, purple. So of course when I stopped by the drugstore and saw purple eyeshadow I had to have it.

I think what drove me to buy purple is that spring is almost here and I read somewhere that purple not only brightens your eyes but makes brown eyes pop.

I bought Wet n Wild's Mega Eyes and EyeGlide by Revlon. Two basically similar colors of purple lavender but in different forms. The eyeshadow from Wet n Wild wasn't glittery but more of a shimmer. It also lasted through the night, through dancing, drinks and after hour partying.

EyeGlide comes in a stick and has a creamy texture. It's sort of like a lip balm for your eyes. It has a spongy tip with holes at the top. You choose how much you want by turning the bottom. The only thing you have to watch is putting too much on. With too much the eyeshadow gathers at the crease of your eye and doesn't look so cute. It also smudges more than the eyeshadow.

Next up...I just ordered an eyeliner from Avon in eggplant :) I won't OD on the purple though, purple eyeshadow & liner together?...that would be a NO.

Oh yes, before I forget. For the eyeshadow :

For the creamy shadow
