Klout Perk

Hello loves!

I have a Klout perk.. thing I want to talk to you about. I received one in the mail today (Monday October 29th) and was honestly appalled at the amount of wasted packaging that they used. Now, I have gotten quite a few other packages from them and the size of what they send to the size of the box they use is absolutely outrageous. Don't send me a small nail polish in a big box! Seriously, what a waste. I keep saving all of the boxes I get because I feel it will be less wasteful that way. And plus, you never know when you are going to need a box! I've also not been receiving my perks, which honestly annoys me a lot. But not enough to say something because I'm not going to be one of those people who complains when they get something sent to them for free. I feel very lucky and privileged to be selected for the products that I do receive, IF I actually get them in the mail. So, I don't feel the need to go and complain. I hope that makes sense. I don't know, I just don't like complaining about things. Except.. this is what I've been doing so I am going to shut my yapper and get into why I am typing this. :)

 

I was selected to receive a Carol's Daughter Monoi Repairing Split End Sealer. Which did just come in the mail. So excited, I got a sample of this in this months Glam Bag and have been thoroughly enjoying it, so I jumped on this like a rabid dog. (crazy lady right here). This is a FULL sized product and it retails for $25 so I am seriously excited to be able to actually test this out for a longer period of time then the MyGlam... oops Ipsy sample. I'm not giving a review of it now because I need to test it out more. So far though, it is working very nicely. I'm getting my hair cut on the 3rd, so I will be able to test it better. :)

 

look at all of that extra box! There was a thing of bubble wrap in it but I was like a child popping the bubbles.. plus it made my niece laugh so. :P

 

Anyways that is really all I wanted to talk about! :)

I hope you all are having a lovely day! <3



 



 

Hello Lovelies !

Hello lovelies!

I know, two posts in one day! Crazy crazy. I was literally sitting on YouTube and listening to a few videos thinking about posts that I want to do on my blog and I am coming up pretty much empty handed! How crazy.

I might be gone for the week of the wedding (November 5 - November 11th) with the Wedding being on the 10th! I honestly might not have the time to blog because I have no idea WHAT to expect that week with Chris' family coming in. Because some time needs to be spent with them for reasons. (Reasons which we shant discuss. BUT they are good reasons so have no fear!) Then there is going to be time being spent with my family then just all around PREPARING for the wedding! Then on the 9th it is going to be a bloody full day of cooking! Which, girl! (and guys!) I don't mind, I LOVE cooking! <3 Its my other passion after beauty.

Anyways, almost went off on a tangent. I'm not sure what kind of posts that I want to start doing. Obviously review after review can get a little boring and that is TOTALLY not who I am! I love mixing things up and keeping ya'll on edge for what is to come! :P So I definitely need help getting ideas for what you all want to see/read! I definitely want to do blog posts that ya'll want to read instead of the same old bring schtuff! :P

I seriously tend to get super excited when I get really cold.. if you couldn't tell! I am not sure if it is translating into my typing but you have no idea how excited I am to be typing this blog post! Ahhh! :D

Okay okay, back to what I was saying. Sheesh scatter-brained lady is scatter brained! :P  I do have some blog posts that I have planned, but I can't take the pictures for them until I cook them. I hate putting blog posts up without pictures! .. well kinda, but still. So, I have going to put some recipes for the food that I am cooking for the wedding. (yes, I am cooking pretty much all of the food.. it is going to be like a hors d'oeuvres kind of thing. I really don't mind doing it, I actually am the one who suggested it! now I am not going to be the only one cooking! I am going to have help! Have no fear! CookingAutty is here!! ... okay that was pretty lame) I am also considering doing a wedding blog post or two. Ya know maybe like pictures and yadda yadda. makeup yadda yadda (a giveaway maybe?!) and things of that nature. Then I was thinking of doing one along the lines of how I planned it and everything since I seriously have had no help, except for my Mum, Grandma and my Lovely Aunt. That's pretty much it. I don't mind either! I love them all the more for it!

 

Anyways.. woo almost another tangent. Lol. It's pretty chilly here in Florida right now. I'm pretty cold, so I am typing in a happy frenzie and such ness. I want to also give my blog more life and personality. Help!? I'm such a knob sometimes when it comes to my blog layout. I wish I could get the twitter youtube button things, but I have NO IDEA how to even work that to be honest. The HTML aspect is SO CONFUSING to me.

Before this blog post gets to long

HERE IS A PICTURE OF ANYA

She is so purdy! :P I'm probably going to have to upgrade my Wordpress account and pay for more space because I hit 16% of my 3.0 GB, and I don't want to be running out of space! :P

 

Anyways, I am off before this gets too much longer!

Toodles!

Sinful Colors - Innocent

Hello Lovelies!

This weeks Sinful Colors nail polish is Innocent. It is a Chartreuse green. I absolutely LOVE this color! It is so vibrant and just gorgeous!

 





This has no shimmer in it and has a nice shine without using a top coat.

As for wear time, I am not going to comment on that because nail polishes wear terribly on me.  :)

 

This is two coats on my nails. As you cal tell depending on the lighting it can come off as Chartreuse or a yellow/green. I really think this is a fantastic polish and color!

 



I hope you all are having a wonderful Monday!

Aveeno Ultra-Calming Makeup Removing Wipes

Hello Dolls!

 

This is a review of a product I received from Klout a WHILE back. I've been using and testing the product out extensively.. Considering the entire package was gone. I wanted to make sure I could give you a really good review of them. As of anything else I get from Klout, I got it sent to me for free. I am not affiliated with Klout of Aveeno, nor am I being sponsored or paid to do this review. All opinions are my own, so lets just jump right into it!

 

Now, I was excited when I saw that I was able to try these. I have been looking for a good makeup removing wipe for a while that wont break the bank, or break my skin out. So needless to say, I was excited when I got these in the mail. These wipes are not exactly cheap I guess, I didn't realize that until I checked their price in the store. They retail for around $6.99 for 25 wipes. Now the price varies depending on where you live, but this is the price for them where I live. Yikes! I couldn't believe it!



These wipes are Noncomedogenic (wont clog your pores), "Oil-Free", ophthalmologist and dermatologist tested. Meaning it is safe to use around your eyes and safe to use on your skin. NOW, as you might have noticed oil-free is in quotation marks. Why? Well, I swear to you that these were/are the greasiest makeup wipes I have EVER used. I swear it felt like I was just smearing oil on my face, it was horrid and my face did not feel clean at all. Yes, it did get my makeup off but the greasy feeling was way too much for me. After I used these I had to immediately wash my face afterwards or I broke out. Kind of goes against the Noncomedogenic claims, but that is just my skin.

These wipes are targeted towards people with sensitive skin, which I tend to have. I have a little mix of ALL the bloody skin types. That is a fun thing to deal with! Anyways, I just really.. I just couldn't get into them. YES, I did use them up because I am not going to waste them, I just figured out to wash my face immediately after. I didn't feel like it removed the oil as they claimed to do because they just made my face MORE oily. I am just on the fence about these to be honest. They weren't that great at getting the makeup off, if I wanted to get my makeup TOTALLY off, I had to use two wipes.

I know some people love these and some people hate these, which is why I am on the fence. Personally for me though, these are a no-go. I can not recommend these at all. I have tried other Aveeno products before and they were all fantastic, but this one just falls flat for me. :( Which stinks because Aveeno is a lovely skin care company!

 

Have you tried this before? What was YOUR opinion of it?!

Targets Fall Beauty Bag - The Last one!?

Hello loves!

This bag came as a total surprise to me because I honestly forgot that it was coming! Shame on me.. well kinda.

Target was doing another Beauty Bag on their Target Style page and advertised this as being their very last bag. I'm not sure how many they did, but this is my 3rd one. Boy did these babies go quick though! They were all gone within the first 3 hours that they advertised it! Crazy. So I did get this bag for free and it contains samples of products. Exciting Hm?

Well, this one, I wasnt too crazy about. I'm thankful that I got them, but I am just not crazy about foil packets!  The bag itself is a Cheetah or leopard print bag. It kind of feels like plastic.. I can't think of the name of the specific material of it, but the outside will be easy to clean if it ever gets dirty. This is another SOHO London New York bag. Its very cute, even though animal print is not my thing.





The inside had the typical coupon book, which for me might actually come in handy this time because I need to get a thing or two for the wedding still.  Onto the samples!



The first one is a little carded foil packet of the Pixi Flawless Beauty Primer. Now I wont be able to try this out until after the wedding because I don't want it to cause any breakouts. I'm dealing with a few already, don't need more.



The next foil packet was Jergens Daily Moisture. It is a dry skin moisturizer, and I believe it is a body moisturizer but don't quote me it doesn't say that. Just says 24 hour hydration for noticeably smoother skin. BUT I don't think I have ever seen Jergens for the face. I do have some dry skin so this will come in handy. :)



The next products are ALL hair products. I am pretty set in my hair care ish right now, but I am sure they will come in handy soon! Heck, I know ONE of them will!

The one I am talking about is a foil packet of Clear scalp & hair therapy total care shampoo and conditioner. Now I already used the Clear line, heck I even use this specific shampoo and conditioner. There is enough for two uses if you use only half. I'm thinking of letting my parents try this sample because they have been on the hunt for a good shampoo and conditioner as well. (as long as my grandmother doesn't use it on the dog again)



The next is another shampoo and conditioner, but this time it is from Fekkai. I have never used their products but these are the Shea Butter moisturizing shampoo and conditioner. Says smooths and defrizzes, rich hydration and smooth detangling. Hmz, we will have to see about this one!



The last set is a trio of products. (foil packet) It is from the L'Oreal EverCreme sulfate free line. They give you the shampoo, conditioner, and a deep nourishing mask. I have been wanting to try products from this line, but once again, it is going to have to wait until after the wedding because I don't want to change anything up and something go wacky on me. Definitely not needed right now. Lol



All in all, I say that this was an okay bag. I'm not doing to throw a hissy because it is all foil samples because I 1. got it for free and 2. it really isn't that big of a deal to me. The foil packets are just kind of annoying to me. Unfortunately Target Style did say that this was going to be their last Beauty Bag. They were having a lot of problems with people trying to get 2 or more and some went missing and people were just being catty about free samples. So I totally understand why Target is no longer doing it!

But, that was the Fall Target Beauty Bag! I hope you all enjoyed and if you got one, let me know what you thought of it!

My Grandma's Makeup Drawer

Hello Dolls!

 

That is right! I took a sneak peek into my Grandmother's makeup drawer. I was really interested in seeing what she used!

 

What I found surprised me! .. Well, kind of. I knew she wore lipstick, but I had no idea that she found foundation! It looks so natural on her! Just holy wow, that is a skilled woman! :P

 

I don't know all of the brands because the names were worn off of a lot of packaging, so you know she actually uses her stuff!

 

This was taken on my phone so sorry for the shoddyness of it!

As you can see she has 2 Covergirl compacts, then under it is a CoverGirl blusher. Then she uses an L.A. colors powder to set her makeup I am assuming. Now I didn't get the exact names or fiddle around trying to figure out whatever was. I am sorry that I don't have exact product names.

 

You can also tell that she has a CG Outlast Lip stain and 3 of their other stains that have that gloss you put on it. I had one years ago and oh my god it was horrid. Why? Because I was like 8 and it wouldn't come off! Haha these days I would welcome something like that.

She also had 4 lipsticks. Again, I couldn't find the brand names on these. I actually looked because I was curious. You can already tell that my Grandmother is an avid CoverGirl fan!

On this side you see that she has a makeup brush that has the remnants of something. (lol) A mascara, no idea the brand but I have never seen a tube like that before! She has some cortaid cream because she has very dry skin, her roll on deodorant, another container then she uses two shades of CoverGirl Clean foundation. You can also see that they both have different undertones, which I though was pretty neat.

 

I am sorry that I didn't get the exact names of everything in her drawer. I was over there for my wedding dress fitting, not to peak around her makeup drawer haha. I am sorry though! Next time I will get the names! :)

 

I hope you all enjoyed this post and seeing what my Grandma uses for makeup! She has very simple tastes and a lot of the time I've only ever realized she was wearing lipstick and blush, so it was a shock to me that she wore foundation and what not! Pft. She doesn't need it at all! :)

 

I hope you all are having a lovely day! <3

 

Wedding Chat!

Hello loves! This is going to be a different kind of blog post. Why? I am talking about my wedding! Squee! I am just starting to get really excited for it! There is a reason why I was not looking forward to it, but we shall get into that later!

 

As I sit here painting my nails for Halloween (yes, I know they probably wont even last a day), I am starting to think about the wedding. Thursday we are going to be sending out some very last minute invitations. What do I mean by last minute, in a little over 2 weeks I am getting married. Oh. My. Gawll! Seriously excited and nervous.

 

We still have quite a bit of minor stuff.. or well major stuff that we need to pick up but we can't get it until the 3rd for reasons. Hah. I still haven't figured out how I am going to do my hair or my Maid of Honor and Bridesmaid's hair. ( I only have 1 bridesmaid so thats simple enough lol) We are having a very small wedding like around 35 people at the most. I think it is really only 30 with Chris and I. Let me check my list... Okay 31 including Chris and I and we are still not sure if 2 people from his side are coming or not.

 

If you have been following me on Twitter, you will probably know that a lot of stuff has been going wrong with the wedding. We have had 2 cancellations for venues and 2 others that were pre-booked. So it has not been a fun experience trying to find a place to get married! Thankfully everything has fallen into place and we have somewhere. Thank goodness because I was starting to get discouraged! That is one of the main reasons I was not looking forward to the 10th of November because everything kept going wrong. Hopefully nothing else will go wrong! *knocks on wood*

I did have a second bridesmaid, but that wound up not happening, but its okay. To be honest this wedding would probably not be happening if it were not for my Parents, Grandma Morgan and my Aunt Helen. They are the 4 people that have helped up out the most! I will be forever grateful to them for that! I will also be forever grateful to my Uncle Rick for marrying us as well. I don't think I could have ever asked for such a supportive and helpful family! They are the best!

To all of the ladies out there who are planning a wedding, I just want to say, don't give up! I almost gave up planning the wedding because it started to become way too stressful. I also want to say that you can do it perfectly well without a wedding planner! Goodness knows we are! :) Ours is a very budget friendly wedding, but at the same time we are spending more than I probably would have liked to spend. I also have been making all of the centerpieces myself. So really, it is a very DIY wedding. I am even cooking the food for it! Pft holla!

 

I still haven't figured out how I am going to do my hair, so that is something I need to figure out ASAP. I haven't decided if I am going to be going to a Salon (probably not) or if I am going to be doing it myself. That is something I need to figure out hah. I am doing my own makeup and I pretty much have it figured out how I am going to do it :) I even know how my Bridesmaids are getting theirs done.

I was thinking about doing a giveaway with the products I used for my wedding makeup, but I wouldn't be able to afford it honestly! I have been planning a giveaway or two after the wedding though! I already have the majority of the products for that (thankfully) bahah, but for my wedding makeup I wouldn't be able to afford it, unless I were able to find drugstore equivalents. Or if it were sponsored, but don't hold your breath. I'm not holding mine! :P

 

For the week of the wedding I am probably going to have scheduled blog posts. I am going to make sure I get them done before then, because I don't want to leave you all hanging! I always feel bad when I don't blog! Definitely keep an eye on my twitter though! I will be so active on that baby that it wont be funny haha

That is really all for now! I am seriously starting to get super nervous. My Grandma Morgan has been super cute, every time we talk about it she starts to cry. She told me when we went to go do a fitting for my dress (seamstress woo) that she loves being in the know because she is so excited, then she started crying. I don't know who is going to cry more. My Dad, My Mom, My Grandma or myself! Hah, we are a bunch of emotional saps huh!? :P

 

But, I shall talk to you all later! I hope you all are having a lovely week! I am going to go back working on the centerpieces! (Yes at 2:36am!)

Sinful Colors - Unicorn

Hello everyone!

 

This weeks Sinful Colors nail polish is Unicorn.

 



This nail polish is a gorgeous soft yellow cream. I don't have any nail polish like this in my collection so I HAD to pick it up when I saw it! (sorry about the gross nails right here)

 

This nail polish is a lot thinner than I thought it would be honestly. It took me around 4 coats to get it opaque enough for my liking.

I am sure I could have done more but I thought this was good enough for me. :) ( In the left picture, that is my screen casting a shadow, has nothing to do with the polish) I really do like this nail polish. I don't wear it often though because it can be too much and look funky with my skin tone.

 



With the 4 coats that I needed to do for this nail polish, it took around 15-20 minutes for it to dry completely, so this is NOT a nail polish that you would want to do if you were in a hurry. Unfortunately that is the case, even as beautiful as this is!

 

As for wear time, this has a pretty decent wear time for me. I can wear it up to a day before it starts chipping. Not very long huh? Unfortunately for me, that is the case with my nails, it wear different on different people, so please keep that in mind. This is still a gorgeous nail polish though! :)

 



 

I hope you all enjoyed this post! <3

Spotlight Sunday - Tavarua Skin

Hello Loves!

Today's Spotlight Sunday is a VERY long time coming. I don't know why it has taken me this long to do. I am suck a slacker!

[caption id="" align="aligncenter" width="402"] Image SOURCE[/caption]

This weeks spotlight is ALL about Tavarua Skin. They are a natural, organic, and high performance skin care line that hails from Orange County, California. I had the pleasure of trying out two of their products a few months back and I absolutely LOVE them! I still use them to this day!

I love how their products are pretty much no muss no fuss products. They are pretty straight forward on what they do! They also have their ingredients on the back of the packaging which is lovely BECAUSE I love knowing what is in the products that I use on my face or body. Heck, you can even pronounce the names or each of the ingredients! Bah

The lovely lady behind the company is Stephanie. She is such a sweetheart! Very kind-hearted and just an all around good woman! :) I really enjoy talking to her! Plus her son is the cutest thing ever! She now even has her products in a store which is awesome! I am so happy for her that her skin care line is thriving! I've been following her since the beginning, so I am glad that she is doing so well!

Her skin care line has such a huge range. There is even products for dry or sensitive skin! Even if you have oily skin I feel that you can use her products! Tavarua is a for purpose company so all of the products are absolutely amazing :).
I really can't wait to see what happens in the future with Tavarua!

Influenster Beauty Bloggers 2012 Box

Hello Ladies and Gents!

I got my Influenster Beauty Bloggers Box today! I am so excited that I got it! It came on the perfect day as well! I woke up with NO voice. *sigh* So, this helped make the day better because I get to try out some products! I can't even tell you how stoked I am for this.



The first item out of the box is the EBOOST powder packet. Now, I HAVE used this stuff before, I got a box of it from Klout. Let me say, this is the one product out of the box that I will not be using, since I already have used it. (review here) I actually had to force myself to drink it, got maybe halfway through it and just couldn't do it. As gross as it sounds it came right back up. I know others love this product, so it is not for me. This is going to go inside of the box and I am going to give it to someone at some point, if I remember. :P

The next product is Kiss Ever Pro Lashes Starter Kit. I am so excited that I got these! I've been looking for a pair of lashes for the wedding because my lashes like to just fall and go straight, no matter how much curling. This kit comes with 05 Kiss lashes, an application and adhesive and it retails for $5.99. I have never tried kiss lashes so I am pretty excited! Oh on a side note, the glue is latex-free so it is safe for a WIDE range of people and even are safe for contact lens wearers! Yay!



This product made me squee a little bit when I got it. The product is the Goody Simple Styles Spin Pin. I have been wanting something like these for quite a while! So happy that I get to try them out! Ironically they are for light hair and I just dyed mine dark. Haha its okay though, THEY SHALL WORK! These retail for $7.29 for 2 pins. I am so excited to play with these and see what I come up with!

The next next thing (lol) is the NYC IndividualEyes Custom Compact. The compact I received was for Brown Eyes, but I never listen to the "this was created for this eye color" deal because really, you can use those kind of palettes on any eye color. The colors inside of the palette just bring out the color of that specific eye more. :) The palettes name is Union Square. Its got a lovely set of colors. There are what looks like 2 mattes and 2 shimmers, a primer and an illuminator.  There is a Cream (matte) highlighter, a taupe-brown for all over the lid (matte), a darker brown and a dark purple. Both with shimmer. Oh my gawll so excited to play with this! Retails for $5.99



2 more products to go!

In my box I received the Not Your Mother's Smooth Moves Frizz Control Hair Cream. You were either going to get that one of the Curl Defining hair cream (same company). This.. just this! I have seen this company popping up in CVS, but have not tried them for some reason. I am excited to try this because goodness my hair has been so frizzy lately. No idea why. This retails for $6 for a 4-oz bottle.  The bottle I got is 1.5 Fl. Oz. It is still a ton of product because you don't need to use a lot with these kinds of products. Can't wait to try this especially since it is infused with coconut and silk extracts!



My last product is probably the one I was the most excited for. It is from Bath and Body Works. It is the Pumpkin Cupcake Mini Candle. Oh. My. Goodness! This smells absolutely divine! I am trying my hardest to not light it right now haha. (only because the fan is on :P) This little candle retails for $3.50. It smells just like a pumpkin cupcake. (which I might say I am so excited to bake in the upcoming month!) Just gives me happy feelings. I may not burn it and just carry it with me to smell it! Hahah (creeper right here!)



There were two other products that came in the boxes, but I did not get either of those, so you will have to check out the other boxes to see what they were! I didn't put any of the outside box pictures (not that anyone would want to see it anyways) because I practically had to cut the box to get it out of my mailbox because my mailman is too lazy to put it in one of the bigger boxes because it CLEARLY didn't fit into the actual mailbox. Lazy lazy. Oh well! :)



You can sign up for Influenster HERE



Have you tried any of these products?! What is your opinion on them?!



Disclaimer: This box was sent to me for free by Influenster. I am not being compensated, paid or sponsored by the above mentioned companies or influenster to talk about these products. I received them to test and give my honest opinion. 

BeautyArmy Expanding Into Health and Wellness?!

Hello everyone!

So, if you have been on my blog for sometime you know that I absolutely LOVE BeautyArmy. It's a subscription service that is $12 a month but YOU get to pick your 6 samples. I absolutely love this subscription service more than anything.
Unfortunately at this moment with the wedding next month, I have to cancel my subscription. I have missed two months and it saddens me! Baha anyways.

Recently BeautyArmy has added the Men's section to their website, where they offer mens products. I got a few for Chris the first month they introduced it. He loved it! Now they have just released another new option! Health and Wellness!

[caption id="" align="aligncenter" width="769"] Image SOURCE[/caption]

I am so excited about this because when I get my subscription back, I am definitely going to be checking that option! So if you think about it, BeautyArmy now has their foot in quite a few different markets. I think that they are going to do absolutely fantastic in the Health and Wellness portion, goodness knows they are already extremely popular!

BA has only been around since January, that is not even a year! In my opinion I feel that they are more popular than Birchbox. ( i did have that subscription for a few months. very disappointing to say the least.) BeautyArmy even offers incentives for being a subscriber for so many months, recruiting people and doing reviews! I mean it is the ultimate subscription service in my opinion!

I think that the Health and Wellness portion will be just as popular as their beauty and skin care. I mean, who doesn't want to be healthy and find new products to help your wellness! Holla! I am so game for it! :P

I really feel that this is another fantastic step for BeautyArmy and I wish them all of the best luck in this new endeavour! I bet they are all excited about it! I know I am!

I definitely suggest that if you are in the US, you check them out! $12 a month might be more than one of the other beauty subscriptions but YOU get to pick your samples! A lot of the time as well, you get full-sized products! I've gotten quite a few, it's a nice surprise!

If you want to subscribe please click my referral link !

Yes, it is a referral link, no I am not required to put it and no I am not being paid or sponsored to put that. It's just a nice little thing :) Plus, it would be super cool !<3

I am so excited for them! Check them out on their website and on twitter :)

My Two Favorite Nail Polishes For Halloween!

My two favorite nail polishes that I LOVE bringing out around Halloween are Zombie Zest and It's Alive from China Glaze. Unfortunately these were both limited edition with their respective Halloween collections. So you can't get these anymore unless you look around eBay or Amazon. I will be ever so sad when these run out!

Zombie Zest is from the 2010 Awakening collection. It is a yellow-green (or green/gold) polish with a slight blue undertone that is not that noticeable. It has glitter in it, but it's very fine to where you can't feel it on your nails at all. Which I like, because I don't like having to use a thick layer of top coat just to make it not skritchy.


As for wear time on me, it varies. Since my nail are normally paper-thin and brittle, my nail polish stays on from 1 hour to maybe a day depending on what I am doing. Now when I say normally I mean, my nails have been oddly strong and thick lately, not that I am complaining. I am quite enjoying it because they are growing beautifully! I unfortunately did have to cut them though. :( Bah





As for It's Alive, it came out in the 2011 Haunting collection. This polish is similar to Zombie Zest, but it is extremely thick, so you will only need two coats max on this. With the polish being so thick, it kind of makes it hard to manage and work with. The base for this one is more of a dark yellow-green with big glitter and small shimmer. Unfortunately this is one of those polishes that you need to use extra top coat on just to make it feel smooth. I do love this polish, so I can over look that. The glitter is round and the color of it is the yellow-green that you see in Zombie Zest. As for wear time with this, because it is so thick, it really depends. If I put too much of a top coat on, it chips almost instantly.

I really love both of these polishes. I do wear them throughout the year but once October hits, I wear them like crazy. I really need to find a second bottle of each because Zombie Zest is almost gone. *cries* It's Alive is about halfway.

Do you have these polishes? What is your opinion of them?!
