Today's Target Haul!

Happy Friday everyone and yay for a beautiful fall weekend!

Today my family (Mom, Dad, Brother and Sister) left to go to Lansing, Michigan for the weekend. My brother is graduating from law school on Sunday, which is awesome, but I am not able to go because I have far too much school work to do. I'm a little sad that I am missing out but I think I made a responsible decision.

It is a bit boring here without my sister and I really do not feel like starting my work quite yet, so to remedy my boredom I went to Target to check out their nail polish and I picked a few things up!

The first thing I picked up from Target was an e.l.f nail polish set. I've thought about getting this a few times before but just never did. I could not pass it up today though because the set was on sale for $2.50! It usually retails for $5.00, good deal.

The set came with four colors. Two of them are creme polishes and the other two are shimmer polishes. 

The first color is simply called Nude, which is exactly what it is. It is a peachy, pink creme polish that would be a great color for everyday wear.

The second creme polish is called Smokey Brown. The name is true to the color, it is a light brown that is almost kind of mauve-y too. I can't wait to wear this color! I think it will be a perfect color for fall which is great since tomorrow is the first day of fall!

This color is called Party Purple. It is a deep, shimmery, purple. This is not my favorite out of the bunch, but I am sure it will still get a lot of use. 

The last color, which is my favorite out of the set, Smokey Brown coming in at a very close second, is called Dark Navy. Again the name is pretty true to the color. It is a dark, shimmery, navy polish and I love it. I am also excited to use this one but I may wait till it's closer to December since it reminds me of winter a little bit. 

Last but not least I saw this polish and just had to pick it up. I am a sucker for black based polishes with little chunks of glitter in it. I saw this and started painting my nails with it in the store. This color is called Twlight Rays. I really love this polish but I really hate the name since I am not a Twlight fan in the least. This is my favorite polish that I picked up today and am really pumped to wear it!  

Sinful Colors-Winterberry & Finger Paints-Purple Palette

Hey Guys! Today I finally have some pictures that are better quality! Yay! Anyway, I know that a lot of other nail polish blogs do a lot of super cool, super fancy nail art and such...well I am just not that talented. Someday I hope to get into nail stamping but just haven't gotten around to it yet. This manicure is one that I consider "fancy" even though I just used a sponge to add some glitter.

Here are the colors I used

The first polish is Finger Paints-Purple Palette. This polish is a really nice, deep purple glitter with a purple base color. It goes on easily but is a pain to remove. The second color is Sinful Colors-Winterberry. I just recently got this color and really liked the subtle shimmer it has.

Here is the manicure! I thought it turned out nicely. It was really easy to get this look. Here I have two coats of Winterberry, I let that dry and then I sponged on the Purple Palette to get a French Mani type look.

Also, these pictures show the current length of my nails. They are a lot shorter than the previous two posts but I like this length and ((knock on wood)) I haven't had a break since I filed them down.

I know it seems like I have an odd obsession with Sinful Colors nail polish but that's not the case. Though I do like it because for the most part it is a good formula and it is only $1.99 per bottle. For my next post I'll be sure to use a different brand of polish.
