I have had a really bad migraine for the past two mornings and just the thought of the smell of nail polish is making me queasy, so instead of doing my nails this morning I thought I would show you the reason why I should not be allowed anywhere near Ross or nail polish for that matter with a credit card...
In addition to the 50 polishes from the Wet n Wild haul, over just two short months, I got...
Cosmetic ARTS polishes. These are from the Forsythe Cosmetic Group, the same brand that makes Color Club. Unfortunately none of them have names, but most are from the Fall & Winter Collections that you can get more info on here.
Color Cub Back to Boho sets 1 & 2 and Foiled
LA Colors - Modern Metallics
Prisma - Fresh & Fabulous and Pastel... has anyone heard of this brand before? They look identical to LA Colors in packaging and bottle shape...
Elf sets -
Top set (l-r): Twinkle, Golden Goddess, Cranberry
Bottom (l-r): Mod Mauve, Sunset, Plum
That's it from Ross for now... they had lots of other LA Color and Prisma sets, but believe it or not I had to stop somewhere...
At Ulta I got...
Ulta Salon Formula (I just love the new bottle shape)
Top (l-r): Ruby Slipper, Army of 1, Chic Peek, Wild Night, Femme Fatale
Bottom (l-r): Chocolate Kiss, Devious, High Roller, Love my Blackberry, Smoke Screen

Well that should last me a life time...
I'm putting myself on a self imposed no more hauling until I swatch at least half of my untrieds... although even as I type this I have a feeling it won't stick... :(
My mission after I finish the 31 day challenge, is to swatch like crazy!
If you would like to see any of these sooner rather than later, please let me know, because I have no idea where to even start!
Thanks for looking!
Anutka :)
omg, that what i call haul O_O
ReplyDeletei'd like to see anything by ulta, i'm not familiar with this brand :-D
:0 WOW!! can't wait to see some of those colours :) BTW how do you store all your polishes?
ReplyDeleteWhoa! Okay this is what I think when I want to slow down my purchasing: Will each polish that you currently have get enough love & appreciation & get used? So the answer is to look in my collection to enjoy those first and it does slow my purchasing down.
ReplyDeleteYou got some very nice polishes! About swatches, I think I'd like to see the Ulta Salon Formula polishes or the Color Club Foiled collection first because those colors look like holiday colors.
Serious hauling! I found (and bought) the Prisma pastel set as well as another set by the same brand called Glitter. Got those at Ross.
ReplyDeleteNow, that's haulage! :D
ReplyDeletewow giant haul!! Use them wisely! :))))
ReplyDelete@Nail Crazy, Ulta is a beauty store chain here in the states. They carry all the major brands and this is the "house" brand. I will swatch them when I'm done with the challenge :)
ReplyDelete@Linda, I store mine in a Helmer from IKEA. It works well, except I wish it would have support/slider rails for the drawers when they are out. I end up having to take the whole thing out when I want to work with multiple colors :(
@DesertNails, I've tried telling myself that since more than half of my collection is not even swatched I know they are not getting good use. Maybe I'll have to stop looking at other blogs so I won't know what's new... that should stop me :D
@ABOP, that's where I got mine as well. I saw the glitter, but chose to pass those up for now. They also had LA Colors glitter which looked almost identical to the Prisma ones...
@Biba, crazy isn't it? :)
@Ruxi, I'll do my best! :)
I died in your Sinful Colors! I never saw Cosmetic Arts before, the colors are nice and the Color Club Back to Boho are amazing, I am thinking about to buy them... I am really curious about how you organize so many bottles :O
ReplyDeleteNow I don't feel so bad for my hauls! :-D This is awesome!!
ReplyDelete@Francirocks, I store them in a Helmer, which is a 6 drawer cabinet that fits under my desk. At some point I will take photos and post it :)
ReplyDelete@Megan, I'm glad I could help :D
OMG! You must be stopped! :P ~ Alla
ReplyDeleteOh my Heaven... this haul nearly brought me into cardiac arrest!
ReplyDeleteWhat lovely colours...
*inhale exhale* :D
@Alla, it is officially your new challenge :)
ReplyDelete@Marta, that's exactly what I did... inhale, exhale then hide wallet from myself :)
O_o ya v shoke :)
ReplyDeleteNu vse, mojesh salon svoy otkryvat'!! :) :)
Ne plohaya ideya, no luchshe prosto podruzhek priglashu :)
