How to get high end beauty products on a budget

How much money do you think I spent on these items?

NOTD-Zoya Breezi-Swatch

Today's nail of the day is Zoya's Breezi.

It's described as "Soft, dusty, dirty medium cerulean blue with an opaque cream finish."

Zoya Haul! Swatches included

Zoya had a BOGO promotion going on a few days ago for those who had an account so I had to take advantage and do a little haul. 

I skipped my Julep box so I figured i'd go ahead and go for the max and get four polishes and four free, which also included spoons of the Gloss collection and swatches of the Designer & Diva collection  AND I got a 2oz bottle of remove+ and a 6oz shower gel.

Whew. 

Totally worth it. ;)

The Gloss Collection

Frida, Paloma, and Katherine.

These are jelly based polishes.

I actually picked up Frida in my haul.

NOTD-Zoya Kristen & Revlon Whimsical

Hey Everyone!

Today I have a Nail of the Day.

It kind of reminds me of cotton candy...

 A little tidbit, I purchased Zoya's Kristen thinking it was going to be a baby bluish color and once I got it I thought it looked more grayish blue...and then I looked at the description....DUH. Should have done my research. Lol.

This is still a pretty polish though.

Zoya makes me Happi-swatches

Hey, everyone.

I said I'd post some swatches for my Zoya I picked up from their free flash sale..sooo, today I bring you "Happi."

I am in no way, shape, or form a pro, so please forgive my horrid skills. Heh. Heh. ;0P

I think this was two coats without topcoat.

two coats/no topcoat.

I had to throw in a Mommy/Daughter swatch. Two coats/no topcoat.

I just wanted to point out this looks good on all skin tones. I'm a yellow undertone and my daughter is a pink undertone.

Zoya-Happi

Color Description: Pink metallic duochrome. A frosty hint of gold creates a unique peachy-pink.

Color Family: Pinks & Mauves

Color Finish: Metallic Duo-chrome

Color intensity: 4 (1=Sheer-5=Opaque)

Color Tone: Warm

Original Collection: Reverie

Price: $8.00

My Thoughts:

I really, really, really like this color.

 My swatches do this no justice. This is a beautiful shade of pink, and their description describes it to a T. 

I did encounter some bald patches with two coats, but three pretty much cleared that up. 

This lasted longer than any of my self-manicure's. I've mentioned that I use my hands alot and get chipping almost instantly with any polish, but this actually lasted me a few days with only minor wear on the tips. I took this polish off because I wanted to try out the other shade I got (Jem) not because it needed to come off. 

When I had this polish on, I asked myself what came to mind when I saw this color and I thought "Happy," so the name definitely fits. 

I LOVE this shade. It's now one of my favorites.

Have you tried Zoya polishes? Love 'em? Hate 'em? What are your fav shades?

Look what I got in the mail today...

My FREE Zoya!

yay

Did you guys take advantage of the Free Zoya polish code? 

I literally spent at least a solid hour trying to figure out what polishes I wanted, and these are what I chose:

Jem and Happi

I can't stay away from Pink and Purple polishes....heh...heh...

Red is also one I can't stay away from and I almost got one of those....lol.

My daughter wanted me to test out Happi on her, so I did.

Two coats of Happi, without top coat.

I'm going to do swatches of my own once I try them out.

What colors did you get? 

Do you have a favorite polish color that you just can't stay away from?

November Birchbox-Getting Gifty

I FINALLY got my November Birchbox in the mail today. Yay!

I was getting pretty worried since it's been sitting at the post office since Thursday. I actually had to stop by the post office to see what was up. With Veteran's Day and Sunday, they just hadn't got to my box yet....anyways, I finally got it today and it was worth the wait.

I have to say this is my favorite box so far. 

-Getting Gifty-

Since it took my box so long to get to me, I cheated and looked it up on the BB website. 

I would have cheated anyway, who am I kidding?

I got BB#21

I was really shocked that I earned the Baublebar, I didn't do anything extra special other than just reviewing the products. *shrugs* I am super excited about though. I really wanted one. 

I got Oscar Blandi-Jasmine Protein Mist-250ml is $18 

This came in a 2oz travel size. I love it when they send travel sized items. 

I am curious to see how this works. It's supposed to protect, fortify, and revive damp or dry hair. 

LaROCCA Skincare-Champagne & Shimmer Body Polish

6.76oz is $35 and this came in .05oz.

It says it features 24K colloidal gold...Oooooh, luxurious.

It smells a little medicine-y though, like when you have a cold and need vapor rub, yeah, like that.

My Bauble Bar! It's made of wood and has a sparkly ball in the center and is on a leather cord. It's actually very nice.

I totally feel like Justin Bieber and I are BFF's now.

You can get this for $20 at:

Klorane-Soothing Eye Makeup Remover with Cornflower

3.4oz goes for $9

They sent a .08fl oz, nice for traveling.

It says it's for sensitive eyes and is paraben free, so that is awesome.

I was so happy to get a nail polish in my box, I think I have an addiction. lol.

Zoya nail polish in Noel.

.5fl oz is $8 and this was .25fl oz.

This is a nice blue denim shimmery shade and it's a Holiday 2011 collection.

My treat was this Chuao Chocolatier-Firecracker Chocopod

The card says it's dark chocolate laced with chipotle and popping candy....hmmm, I am curious to see how this tastes. I don't really like spicy things...

2.8oz goes for $6

This was .39oz

I was very impressed with this months box. This has got to be, hands down, my favorite box so far. I give this box an A+

What did you get in your birchbox? How did you like your box? Did you get the Bauble Bar? Do you feel like you're BFF's with Justin Bieber, too?
