Mini Forever 21 Haul

Hello! I'm back with a mini haul post because none of my "hauls" deserve the actual haul branding since I hate buying so much in one sitting. Well anyways i got this High-Low Tie Neck Button Up Blouse in Mint. Mint is probably one of my favorite colors right next to coral. I also got two bustier bandeau ish type of tops. It's like a bandeau and a bustier made a baby and came up with this. It's not a bandeau but it kind of is... The texture is like a bandeau but it looks like a bustier. I've always hated how bandeau's never cover up very nicely. They cost $6.50 each! I also got this coral/dusty pink scarf. I just love the color.

Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain in Romantic and Love Sick Review/Swatch

Revlon is always making a hit with their lip products! I'm pretty sure these are raved about and they're hard to get sometimes so i only got these two shades. They weren't my ideal shades i wanted to get but it doesn't hurt to try.

Romantic is a nice shade of red and Love Sick is more on the magenta side kind of similar to the lip butter in Lollipop.

These look very similar to the chubby sticks and you do not have to sharpen these they revolve up by twisting the silver bottom.

The texture of these are very balm like and the scent is very minty. They actually do stain your lips and you can layer up!

Romantic can be a lot more red than this picture if you put more on!

Up & Up Polish Remover Dip-it Acetone (Target Brand)

I've always wanted a nail polish remover in a jar... especially acetone since the people in the nail shops use it to do french manicures. I am so glad i invested $2.54 because this is amazing. It's ideal to use it to remove fake nails but you can remove any kind of polish. I'm pretty sure this is going to make removing glitter polish a lot easier than the basic cotton round and polish remover. In the jar there's acetone and a pink plastic thing which contains the bristles that you scrub your nail polish off with. I tested out how well it can clean up white for french manicures it it worked out well! I will probably attempt my own french nails with this using an ecotools concealer brush. I recommend any brush that is DENSE! A flimsy brush will leave you with messy lines and frustrations.

Essie A Crewed Interest Nail Polish Swatch

This polish is probably the perfect pink to me. I love peach shades and on the site it is described as a "luminous peach shade". It is in stores right now part of a previous collection.

Sonia Kashuk Smokes And Mirrors Nail Polish Swatch

This is probably one of the cheapest and most gorgeous polishes ever. This probably could be called foil. Only found at target and it was around $4-$5.

Nails Inc. Porchester Place Swatch

My first nails inc. polish that is regular and not magnetic. I'm really happy with it! It's orange with a hint of pink! Not completely orange but not verging onto coral.

Essie Mojito Madness Swatch

Mojito Madness is part of the Essie Summer Collection of 2012! I found mine at target. It's pretty much the perfect "money green"

Essie Navigate Her Swatch

Sorry for the bad lighting ): but pretty much a nice spring green. I don't know if you can find it in stores anymore but they sell it online!

Essie Tart Deco Swatch

Probably my favorite coral polish of all time. Thank god it's not part of a collection.

Bath and Body Works Semi-Annual Sale Haul 2012

Hello everyone! It's been awhile because I've been lazy once again. Semi-annual sales are so so so exciting since they try to get rid of the current scents so most of their signature collections are not part of this sale except the shower gels are all $4 right now. There's big tubs with signs over them with wither 75% off or 50% off. Also, the three wicked candles are $10 but the scents are select so i didn't get any of them ):
