Stash Addition: A few China Glaze Colors

Sally's Beauty Supply is having a sale on all their China Glaze polishes this month. Buy 2, get $1 off and you get a free gift bag. So I picked up a couple of colors. I love China Glaze. Aside from my own artisan polish, this is my favorite brand. I love the formula and they really have the most exciting colors out there in my opinion. I usually love every collection they release. 

Cute FREE bag

China Glaze Flying Dragon

China Glaze Lubu Heals

Flying Dragon is a purple neon polish with fine blue and pink glitters. It dries completely matte and is really amazing!!! I love it!

I've had this polish on my radar for a while. I have the sister polish "Ruby Slippers", so I wanted this one too. 

Here's what these polishes look like with topcoat: TRANSFORMED! 

So what do you think of these colors? Are you a ChG fan? What's your favorite brand of polish? 

Stash Additions: My new Brazilian polishes

Random Act of Polish Kindness from Alaina and My Wet N' Wild Fantasy Makers Collection

Let me say, I was having a HORRIBLE day. A really down kind of day. The kind everyone has, I suppose. Till the mail came! 

A wonderful lady named Alaina surprised me with 3 polishes from my WISHLIST. 

Her letter, her kindness, and the beautiful polishes really turned my day around. 

Thank you so much Alaina!!! :) 

DUPE ALERT!!!!
While the names may be different, only one of the 4  2012 Fantasy Makers Tombstone line is a completely new one, and that's the Once Upon a Time, which is still a dupe of Behind Closed Doors, but at least it's in a new cute bottle.

There are 3 others that were released for 2012 which are simply renamed polishes from past lines. Regardless, I still wanted these. Some of my bottles are a little less than mint condition and since these are smaller bottles, I am happy to have back ups.

The 4th polish, not featured in this post, is a glow in the dark polish. 

And here is some Wet n Wild Fantasy Makers Spam.
I am an avid collector of this line and I couldn't wait for this line to be released. 

Do you collect these polishes? Aren't they adorable and very seasonal?? 

Stash Additions: Amazon, Bundle Monster, Sally Beauty Supply Haul

Every month Traci from The Traceface Philes posts a really awesome $10 off coupon for Sally's Beauty Supply. Every month, I go in to the store with bells on my toes to use it. :) 

Check out my $11 Sally Beauty Haul:

Up next, is a bottle of "Hollywood Walk of Fame" from the Fergie WnW line. I've been on the hunt for this polish for a while. I came across it at Walmart. Finally! 

Next up, is a few items I ordered from Amazon.com.
Guess how much I paid? NOTHING!!!
That's right, the Konad polish and BM 2012 stamping plates were FREE. How you ask? I use a site called Swagbucks where you earn points for doing simple tasks like filling out surveys or using their search engines. I used all my points that I've earned over the last few months on  $25 worth of Amazon gift cards. I then used those cards to get these few items.
You can click this banner to check out more about Swagbucks and it also serves as a referral link if you'd like me to get credit if you sign up.
 

And finally, I have been on the hunt for one of the new Bundlemonster plate holders for a good while now. I checked the site just about everyday and they were never in stock. Finally I got one!!!! I used the code "THANKS" at checkout for 10% off and I got this great book for only $13! I have all three Bundlemonster stamping sets. They fit perfectly in this book, and I even have a few pages to spare. I highly recommend this to anyone who has stamping plates. It's the perfect storage system and it's inexpensive. I love it! 

So how did I do? For those of you who are good at math, the grand total spent on these items was less than $30. 

My Polish Stash Additions: Red Dog Designs and Whimsical Ideas by Pam

This week I hit the Indie polish mother load!!! Check out these awesome polishes I added to my stash this week. 

First up, is a collection from my great friend Gina from My Dirty Little Obsession and Red Dog Designs. 

I can't begin to emphasize how impressed I am with her polishes. The formula is awesome and the colors are gorgeous! 

Pam from Whimsical Ideas by Pam recently released a new collection, and while I've done really well with my impulse polish spending, I had absolutely no control when I saw swatches of these lovelies. I HAD TO HAVE THEM!!! 

What do you think of these new polishes? Did you score any great polishes this week?
