Stella Chroma Aurora Stella-ealis

Press Sample One of these days I’ll be able to slow things down and keep up with my blog load a little better. Not today, of course. This week is crazy busy. My little boy starts Junior High this Tuesday so it’s a lot of running around making sure he has everything he needs for all 7 classes. Last night Pam of Stella Chroma poked me to see how the newest Holo-Maniacs group custom was coming along, and it had totally slipped my mind in all the hustle and bustle. Luckily it photographed nicely so I was able to get this going to post today! Sorry Pam! So here is Stella Chroma Aurora Stella-ealis which is the 27th custom for the Holo-Maniacs Facebook Group! Not only is this polish magical, I also have a code you can use to save a little on it! If you use the code SANCTUARY at checkout, you save 15% on…

The Holo Hookup September 2017 Royal Women

Press Sample Another long day of hauling out unwanted things! I found a lot more palettes (did you know I bought the Gwen Stefani Urban Decay palette? Neither did I) and other cosmetics that are still in boxes. I think I have a serious problem. If you think my polish collection is massive… you haven’t seen my cosmetics collection. It’s getting kind of insane. I sat on the floor of the living room sorting through my MAC collection and opened each lipstick and sniffed them all to see if they were still okay or not. Out of about 200 MAC lipsticks (about 70 of which I’ve never worn and are still in their boxes) only 8 no longer had the vanilla smell. I’ll call that a win. We also got my son’s remaining back to school shopping done. We got up early this morning and went to the mall (ugh……

Pahlish Afternoon Tea Collection & August Releases

Press Sample How is Saturday already over? I shouldn’t complain, I have a 4 day weekend… but still! It went by super fast. We were doing busy work around the house all day, otherwise this post would have gone up hours ago. We rented one of those ginormous dumpsters to haul away a ton of stuff cluttering up our house and it feels so nice. We’ve accumulated a lot of things that we simply outgrew (I’m looking at Jacob right now) or just didn’t want anymore. We have boxes with Jacob’s books from when he was younger that we’re donating to the local bookstore and the clothing he didn’t destroy is going to be donated as well. Now that Nick is relaxing and Jacob is passed out from all the hard work, I have time to share the Pahlish Afternoon Tea Collection & August Releases! This month things are split up…

DIFFERENT dimension Wild Spirit Trio

Press Sample Happy Friday! This was a fairly long week for me with a lot of personal things going on, so I’ve been a little on the quiet side. I do have some catch up to do in the next day or two but honestly, I’m so exhausted from real life stuff that I don’t know if I will just put it off until early next week or not. It’s really depending how I’m feeling over the weekend and whether I’m mentally up for it. I do have 3 photo sets ready though, so I’m trying to get those posted up. The first post will be Different Dimension Wild Spirit Trio. The Different Dimension Wild Spirit Trio is a Summer to Fall transitional release. The last couple releases from Missi were neon filled, so we’re starting to mellow out while still maintaining some vibrancy to our polish. All 3 shades…
