KKCenterHk Silver Star Nail Studs

Hello again friends! I hope everyone had a wonderful long weekend last week. Mir and I went to the cottage with a couple friends and did time fly! It was our first time in Tobermory, ON and had an awesome time. We just wished we could've stayed longer. 

Today I have super cute silver star shaped nail studs from KKCenterHK. The stars are about 2mm in size and the product page says they come in a pack of 100 but I would stay there was at least 200! The stars came in a handy screw top jar. This makes picking out stars much easier than trying to fish them out of a bag.



The studs were easy to handle and held in place nicely. I used a dotter with a little topcoat to pick up the studs and secured them in place with a thick layer of topcoat. While I had them on they held in place and did not fall off.

If you're like me and like to stretch out your nail art supplies you can remove and clean the studs with non acetone remover and reuse them. However for $4.50USD you really do get your money's worth and the amount of studs you receive will last you a long time.

OPI x Coca-Cola Preview

When I first saw the preview for this, they only showed one "classic coke" red, and people wanted to see more, not just red because...come on..OPI has a million reds out!
To our pleasure, I got another sneak peek of this new collaboration and there's a whole range coming!
I have to say I am excited, I love a nice dark vampy purple and OPI makes the best ones!!! (Lincoln Park After Dark anyone??)


I'm going to throw in some information from the press release so enjoy! I also took a screenshot of the new range, hoping soon I'll be receiving better pictures..

Fancy Mystery Box Review - $20

This post includes press samples and referral link.

Hey everyone,

Just in time for another Fancy Box review! Recently, Fancy introduced *new* mystery boxes to their line. It is a one-time non-refundable item. They have 3 price tiers, totalling 6 options.
At each tier of $10, $20, and $40, you get to pick whether you want a box curated for men or women.

Today I have for you, the $20 box for women..


I have received one other Fancy box and I was super pleased with it. If you missed my review, you can check it out here: Fancy Box Subscription - Kelly.
Most of the details of Fancy Box is the same, so I won't go into as much detail here on the box itself. But once again, super fast shipping, great packaging on fragile items and bonus points for another purple box ;).

L'Oréal Warehouse Private Spring Sale 2014

Hi :D

I love warehouse sales, I try to go to a few of them in a year and just take a look at all the sales. I've been trying though to be good and not buy things if I don't immediately need them but still...!
Btw, I didn't really bother taking pictures, I should have! But I was so tired so sorry for the wordy post :P
