Nail of the Day: Violet Frenzy

Today I really wanted a bold pop of color on my nails but with some added sparkle in the mix.  This is a great summer nail look especially if you are looking for something other than coral or blue on your nails. 

I am not the type of girl who will use both base coat and top coat every time I paint my nails.  I only put on these products if the nail polishes either stain my nails or don't give off the shine that I want from my nail look.  However, this nail polish duo does an amazing job with giving my nails that shiny coat without staining my nails when I take them off.  I have found that these two specific brands are also great at not chipping on my nails.  I have worn this nail polish look for a little over a week without any top coat and they are chip free!! 

I love Sally Hansen's Xtreme wear nail color nail polish line!! I believe this is their best line of nail polishes that the brand carries.  This nail polish is Xtreme(ly) easy to apply :) and very pigmented.  The color in Violet Voltage is a beautiful almost metallic purple.  The light reflects off this nail color perfectly to give you that glossy manicure look.  I applied this as my base coat for my nail today and used two coats.  Now don't get me wrong this polish can definitely be applied with just one coat and look just as stunning.  I love how this polish does not streak and applies smooth over each nail.  This polish is also fast drying which makes it easy to add more coats to your nails and having the added benefit of not feeling helpless while your nails dry! You can grab this color at any drugstore or Ulta and retails for approximately $3-$4 for this .4 oz bottle.

 Sinful colors is an great budget-friendly nail polish brand sold at Target and Walgreens!  There are a variety of nail colors and they are only $1.99! There are also sales at Walgreens where I have seen these polishes for only 99 cents a total steal!!  This polish is called Frenzy and is a clear polish with purple and blue small glitter flecks.  This polish does a great job of getting an evenly coated glitter look without having the clumps and stickiness that most glitter polishes have.  I coated my nails 2 coats of this polish after my Sally Hansen polish and it made a great look! If you haven't tried any Sinful Colors polishes I would give them a try!

I <3 Summer Tag

This is a fun tag created by the youtuber MissGlamorazzi and I thought I should share my responses with y'all.

1. Favorite bronzer for summer?

     My favorite bronzer for the summer is Rimmel London's Natural Bronzer in Sun Bronze.  This bronzer is great for giving me that sun kissed glow that every girl wants.  The texture of this bronzer is so smooth and easy to use.  It definitely gives my face a flawless look.  This is a super affordable bronzer that is approximately $3-5 dollars and can be purchased at any drugstore or Ulta. 

2.You're relaxing in a hammock, on a tropical island.  What are you sipping on?

     I would have to be sipping on a strawberry margarita with sugar on the rim.  I just love having margarita's on the beach and this was my drink of choice when my husband and I went on our honeymoon to Cancun!

3. Favorite summer lip product?

     Right now I am loving my Maybelline Vivid lipstick in Fuchsia Flash!  This lipstick is a great way to add color to any makeup look.  It is a very vibrant hot pink lipstick that I love to pair with a neutral eye look.  The formula of the Maybelline Vivids are amazing and increased my beginning obsession with wearing a pop of color on my lips.

4.Pool or Beach?

     The beach ALL THE WAY!! I love just relaxing on the beach with a good book and my toes in the sand.  Also, with the beach you get interactive water with the waves crashing all around you instead of  the pool that has been sitting there since who knows how long. :)

5.Summer = Crazy hair! What's your must-have styling product?

    Currently, I am using it's a 10 miracle leave in product. I use this product right when I get out of the shower and spray it all over my hair then brush it out with a wide-tooth comb.  It has done a decent job with controlling my frizz and detangling my hair, but I am still on the search for a better product.

6. Favorite summer nail polish!!

     I am absolutely in love with my Wet N Wild Megalast nail polish in the color I Need A Refresh-Mint.  I apply this beautiful light blue/green color with 1-2 coats.  I have also found that these nail polish colors last a lot longer on my finger nails then Butter London polishes and are WAY less the price.  These polishes go for about $1.99 and you get .45 fl oz, can you say BARGAIN!! I recommend all you girls out there to try these nail polishes out!

7. Any summer traditions?

    I big tradition in my family is to go to the beach!! We love visiting Myrtle Beach most specifically.  I love laying out on the beach for the day then going out to Broadway on the Beach for a fantastic night.

8. Favorite summer scent?

   Bath and Body Work's Cherry Blossom body splash has been my comeback summer scent.  I have had this fragrance since my Grandma gave it to me with a whole set of cherry blossom smelling goodies for Christmas.  Since then I have repurchased many of the body washes and lotions but this fragrance is still kicking.  I love spritzing this on myself in the summer whenever I want a nice floral scent that isn't too strong during these summer months.  

9. Favorite BBQ food?

     You can never go wrong with my dad's or uncle Steve's pork butt!  They make the best pulled pork I have ever had and spend a good amount of time cooking it!! I need to get their recipe one day and try making some pork butt for myself, yet it probably won't come close to deliciousness.

10. What's your favorite summer-proof product?

     When I first heard this question I was thinking a sunscreen that keeps your skin safe in the sun.  Then I thought about my waterproof mascara! I use L'oreal Paris's Voluminous Carbon Black mascara in waterproof and this puppy doesn't let me down.  This mascara does a fantastic job making my lashes voluminous and dark without getting clumpy.  I can wear this mascara in the pool, high heat and humidity and it has an amazing lasting power without having mascara run down your face!

11. Any summer vacation plans this year?  No plans? Tell us about your dream summer trip!

   Since, Isaac and I have had a busy summer so far with traveling to Myrtle Beach with the family, moving to a new apartment and him starting his new job we don't have any more big plans for this summer.  We are looking forward to visiting my family in South Carolina next weekend where we are going to celebrate my birthday and get to relax with the family.  However, next summer I would love to go to Disney World or back to Cancun!
