I put the ICING on the cake...

Why hasn't anyone told me about Icing before now?!!

While Rabbit took the kids to Justice, Panda and I went over to Icing (we didn't know what it was, other than it was owned by Claire's).

We were not in the door for 10 seconds before I had 3 bottles of polish in my hands... I am in love...

These are from Rite Aid... Whimsical and Scandalous! Woot!

sparkly....

The whole haul! + Rabbit in the background!

Have you ever been to Icing? What do you think?

"Mini" Haul, and V-dog learning the art of nail shopping...

Monday, Panda, Rabbit, V-Dog and I went out to dinner, and I made them stop at the local Sally's... it was in the same parking lot!

I did really good! I actually didn't find anything I wanted. Then Panda and Rabbit went outside... some how I managed to find all of this:

And V-Dog has been watching Jerseylicious  a little bit too much, and found 2 sets of press on nails. Granted... they are totally awesome! She also found a cute little kitty nail file! I actually spent more money on her than I did myself! Woot!

Below is the first set of nails V-Dog got. Unfortunately they only lasted about half a day. By the time she got home from school, 4 of them had fallen off. Oh well!

Peacock!!!!!

What do ya think?!

Sparkling CVS Haul - Thanks Mom!

It was time to pick up prescriptions again. Since I have started my polish hobby, I always look forward to my trips.

I happen to be with mom. And, thankfully at that. They are having a Sally Hanson buy one get one half off sale. They also have the Gem Crush collection. She drug me away before I could pick up ALL the colors. Ended up with Big Money, Lady Luck, and Showgirl Chic. Love them all. Can't get over the sparkle factor.

To round out my SH I picked up Hidden Treasure.

I also picked up a 75% off bottle of Milani Techno Red. Not as impressed with that one. I grabbed the last bottle of Wet n Wild How I Met your Magenta. I have been eyeing it up for a little, and saw it as a sign.

To make my day even better, mom bought these polishes for me! She is the best momma in the world!

My First, and LAST Ulta Haul...

So, I was super excited to find out there is an Ulta in my area! I found it last week, and after work yesterday, Rabbit and I made the journey. He wants me to let everyone know he did NOT want to go in.

So, we enter the store, and I am immediately overwhelmed. I have no idea which way to go, or what to do. I grabbed a bag/basket thing and started wandering.

I quickly found a Butter London display. My first instinct is is to look for clearance. Hmm... no clearance... okay... well, let's just see what they have... Hmmm... what is this? Disco Biscuit... pink... love it... glitter... cool... wait that glitter looks like Motley...

And that is the story of my first Butter London polish.

I do some more meandering. And find OPI mecca. Oh yea, and the new Holland collection came out yesterday. I got a mini collection with: I have a Herring Problem, Red lights ahead... Where?, Kiss me on the Tulips, and Pedal Faster Suzi! Totally love them. I also got a full size bottle of Vampsterdam.

Rabbit picked out OPI Significant Other Color and Diva of Geneva. I also picked up Super Bass Shatter, since I don't have a crackle in that color.

On the way to the cashier, I found they were having a buy one get one type sale for Sally Hanson. So I grabbed Plum's the Word and Gentle Blossom.

PHEW! How about some pictures!

OH! I forgot about my Seche Restore! It was the whole reason I went!

This baby (Significant Other Color) The picture doesn't do it justice. This may be my favorite color EVER...

Now, you ask why this is my "LAST" trip? Because the people there were pretentious, and it showed. They made me feel like I was not welcome in their store, and that I was below them. Plus, I could have bought all of this for cheaper online. And, No clearance?! WTF?! 

I love these colors, and am super stoked to be able to use them. 

Have any of you been to an Ulta? What are your feelings? Did you have a similar experience? Or a completely opposite experience?
