First Impression/Review: L'Oreal Colour Riche Gold Dust Nail Color

Oh goodie, I love reviews! And this one is at least a pretty positive one. I know it's necessary to be honest about products, but sometimes bad reviews make me sad. But staying on a happy note, this product is amazing!

The two colors that I bought were 138 - The Statement Piece and 137 - Sexy in Sequins

I've wanted to try a textured nail polish for quite some time but the idea had always bugged me that my nails would be bumpy or rough. I went out on a limb at Target and picked these two guys up and gave it a go! Boy am I happy that I did! I am seriously obsessed with these polishes!

The texture is still weird but in a cool way. It's hard to come up with an accurate description but the closest I could think of would be worn down sand paper. Still holding the texture, but not scratchy. The polish dries quite quickly (big plus for me, no patience...) and it seems to last for a while, at least 5 days. I am pretty rough on my hands, working in retail and what not so that fact that this polish has held up to the test is awesome. 

I definitely recommend this product and would love to see the colors you guys pick out and try! Make sure to share your pics with me on all my social media (top right hand area) so we can chat about how awesome these are!

Target and Ulta Beauty Haul

So first off let me start by saying I went to Target only to buy a holder for my K-Cups. I then realized I had a few random gift cards to Target and decided to go shopping a little bit. But then, as I was putting my bags in my trunk I see Ulta a few stores away. I saw in an email that they were having some great sales and that's when a few things turned into a mini shopping trip!
