OPI Designer Series Amethyst

New here?


Sorry for the lack of posts recently!  We've been working on a lot of other stuff!  (Mostly a dance tutorial series for our YouTube account which will be out very soon!)

I got this polish back when it first came out.  It is actually the only holo that I own.  But, after revisiting it recently I think I am going to have to pick up some more holos!

Overall, I love this polish! I'm in love with the holo concept and now I have to get more! :)

Review: Theatricals Tights

Most of my tights had rips in them so I decided I needed a few new pairs!  I decided to go with Theatricals Adult Convertible Dance Tights in Ballet Pink.

These fit very well and do have a lot of sizing options!  I love how well they breath, some tights make you so hot!  Plus, at All About Dance they are only $6.50, which is about half of what you pay at a store!

The only con I have found so far is that the hole at the bottom for converting the tights is a little small.  You have to stretch it out a little bit before wear.

Overall for $6.50, these tights are amazing!  Be sure to watch for sales on All About Dance too- you could get them for even cheaper!

New Name!

Hey guys,
I just wanted to let you all know that we changed the name of our blog because it was very similar to someone else's and we hadn't realized that previously!  The url will stay the same for the time being.
Sorry for any confusion!

Sinful Color Snow Me White

Today I have an amazing white polish to show you guys!  It is actually my favorite white, and my go-to base shade!  Sinful Colors polishes usually go for $1.99 and that is super cheap for polish!

I've been playing around with new fonts and the one I used here is called Skinny Latte.  I actually really like it because I used to write like this! haha

Do you have a go to base shade polish?

What is Smartphone DNA?  

Smartphone DNA is an app dedicated to Twitter users, and it allows you to collect your Twitter DNA via your Android phone, and then compare it against other twitter users to see how much you match!  This is a great way to locate new Twitter friends that have things in common with you! 

How it works:

1. Smartphone DNA shows you a list of apps you currently have installed.
2. You select the apps you want to share as part of your DNA
3. Smartphone DNA shows you how closely you match the DNA of other users.

Smartphone DNA is 100% secure and controlled by you.

DIY Thursday: Easy Lip Scrub

So today we are starting something new- DIY Thursday.  It will hopefully be something we do weekly with new DIY project ideas!  Let us know what you think by leaving a comment!

Dead/dry skin can ruin the look of lip stick.  Take care of that with a lip scrub. Some lip scrubs can be expensive and some don't work.  Here's an inexpensive one you can make with stuff that's probably already in you kitchen!

What you need:

-tsp. olive oil

-tsp. sugar

You can use less of these, using a tsp of each gets you about 3 uses.

Optional:

-Tooth brush or old mascara brush (clean)

Combine the sugar and olive oil.  

Rub on your lips.  You can use a tooth brush or mascara brush, but if your lips are chapped it will hurt.  You can also use you finger or a tissue.

Don't do this more than once a week because that could damage your lips more.

Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
