imPRESS Press - On Manicure Review


Hey guys!! So I found these when I was looking around the beauty section of Walmart and thought they looked really pretty and like  a cool idea because I've been keeping my nails painted so much since my engagement (it just looks nicer with the ring, ok lol).

I put these on Friday night,  now this review is coming from a girl who's never worn fake nails and keeps her nails as short as possible so bear that in mind,  I immediately hated the feeling. I decided to give them a chance though,  because they did look soo pretty.

They are very non functional, like I had trouble picking things up, opening things like soda. Basic task really. It did get easier by a little bit as I got used to them but it was still very irritating and everytime I tried to do things I could feel the adhesive pulling and/or them pressing into my skin.

They managed to stay on all through Saturday and Sunday morning, then when I was attempting to open a box of Little Debbies one finally came off (I can't say I was too sad to be honest because that meant I got to pull the rest off). 

The only really I WAS disappointed with this was because they say not to leave then on over 7 days so I expected they'd stay on longer. 

With all that said,  I think these are a GREAT idea for a party or other event if you need a relatively quick and cheap manicure. However for everyday use they are extremely impractical if you plan to use your hands to do just about anything.

Nyx Liquid Suede Cream Lipstick Review

Hey guys!! How was your week? Has school started back for you guys yet? My college recently started back so that's been interesting to balance with work. Today I thought I'd review the Nyx Liquid Suede Cream Lipstick in Kitten Heels.  I really really REALLY love this color and this lipstick in general.  This is my first ever liquid lipstick and I think it's awesome.  If you aren't familiar with liquid lipsticks,  they go on like a gloss, but dry like a matte or in  this case a cream lipstick. This one is gorgeous.  I'm actually really glad my boyfriend encouraged me to get this color (ok so I made him pick one... lol). This has pretty good lasting power to. It will need to be touched up after eating or drinking alot, but I feel like that's pretty normal for most lipsticks.  I would absolutely recommend this to you guys to try though,  it isn't too expensive and it's awesome. ^_^

Maybelline Color Sensational in Wickedly White Review

  Ok guys, so I bought this a few months ago because I found out they had came out with a ton of new colors in this line and thought it would be cool to try.   The reason I haven't reviewed it is because I CAN'T FIGURE OUT HOW TO WEAR IT!! I have never had a white lipstick before and I have not found any way so far that this looks nice.   As far as the quality of these lipsticks, the quality is fine. They have decent lasting power (you would only need a few touch ups throughout the day...more if you eat and drink a lot) and they feel nice, but yeah I have no clue how to wear it.   Have any of you guys had a white lipstick before? Any other beauty gurus have any good ideas of how to wear this??

Getting my Belly Button Pierced

(Photo by Grace, Southern Grace Photography) So I did something super exciting and scary recently. I got my belly pierced!! I researched and found a awesome tattoo shop called Golden Spiral Tattoo, I totally recommend them btw. I went with my fiance and we told them what we were there for and I gave them my ID and signed the papers after the piercing artist did a short 'consultation' which was basically just looking at and feeling my belly button area. She told me because I bend right at my belly button when I sit and stuff I would need to be sure to sit up straight, but it looked good and she could do it. We went back with her to a little room and she cleaned around my belly button and marked where to pierce with her maker and measured the area. She had a few different belly rods I guess? laying out for me to choose from so I chose a small diamond looking one (pictured obviously lol) and she sanitized it. She had me lay on the table and adjust...
