A Quick LUSH Stop

Okay, so today I went to the mall with the LUSH in it just to get a Fresh Face Mask. I have been hearing good things about them for the longest time now and have always been anxious to try one. I was thinking I would get either Cupcake or Catastrophe Cosmetic. Usually my skin is dry but in Summer it's always a little bit oilier on the warm days. I also have some redness around the nose area and blemishes. The LUSH associate recommended Catastrophe Cosmetic for it's soothing effects and antiseptic qualities so I went with it! I was so tempted to buy something else... like REALLY tempted... but I controlled myself. Then I was surprised with two free soap samples of Sea Vegetable, and Sandstone! (:
The green soap is Sea Vegetable and the other is Sandstone (has sand in it!)

Zoya Nail Polish Swatch: Casey

Firstly, I'd like to say excuse the horrible nail painting job in the picture because I painted my nails at 3 something in the morning and was extremely tired! But here it is! The ever-famous Zoya Casey polish. I believe it is one of their most popular colors and I can see why! It is a deep dark plum color that looks black from a distance, sometimes even up close depending on the lighting. It is definitely a vampy color and I'm really excited to wear this for the month of October when all the Halloween happenings are taking place! (:

Candles By Victoria Haul


So, my first order from Candles By Victoria came in a few weeks ago and I've been burning them and let me tell you, I'm in love! These candles are much higher quality and more scented than any other candle I've purchased in the past. I got two 8 oz Jelly Jar candles in the scents Twilight and Country Berry Hotcakes. I also got three scent shots (wax tarts) in Stress Relief, Amish Quilt, and Apple Cinnamon Butter! The middle one is a free scent shot that Victoria chooses randomly. I love every single scent. And I especially recommend the Country Berry Hotcakes candle! Yum!

I uploaded a video that pretty much says everything but if you'd like to see pictures, here you go!

Zoya Nail Polishes from Twitter 5000 Promo

Hey everyone!

As you may or may not know, Zoya Nail Polish has a Twitter, their user-name is Zoya_NailPolish. If you follow them you know that they always have some kind of promotion or contest going on so a few weeks ago they vowed to give everyone their choice of three free polishes if they reached 5000 followers on Twitter. Of course they reached 5000, and we all got to pick three polishes for free! I chose Zara, Casey, and Morgan. All three are beautiful colors. I will post swatches when I paint my nails each color so follow me if you have not already and you'll be able to see swatches of not only Zoya polishes but other polishes brands as well!

I included a picture of the three polishes in the bottle.
The color in the bottle is pretty true to the color that comes out on your nails.
Also check out my video on this exact promo and my opinion of the colors!

Forever21 Discount Code for August

Hey All!

I know August is just about over but there are a few days left and for anyone still looking to purchase clothes online for Back to School or just for Fall in general I have discovered a discount code for Forever21 that gets you 10% off you're entire purchase! I placed a large order last week for Fall/Back to School, and I decided to try out the code and it did indeed work. Not only did I get free shipping for spending over $75, but I saved a good chunk of change. My order totaled up to be $209.09 and with the discount code it went down to 189.18! Which is a saving of 20 dollars!

So without further adieu, the code is CHIC21.

I hope some of you get to take advantage of it while it's still available. Hopefully it still works, let me know!

Talk to you soon,
Natalie (:
