CosmoProf North America 2016: Nail Product Coverage

Good morning lovelies!  I'm sure you all know that CosmoProf North America was held in Las Vegas this past July.  This is a huge beauty convention with loads of very well known companies, smaller companies and brand spanking new companies trying to break out on the scene.  It's a 3-day event, and you definitely need at least 2 days to see everything and attend all the parties.  CPNA fell on a later date than it usually does so it wasn't really great with my personal schedule, and I was only able to go in for a day and a few hours the following morning.  But I saw a ton and have lots to share with you!  I decided to split my pictures up into 2 posts, nail brands and beauty brands.  I'll start with nail since that's kind of my thing.  I hope you like my coverage of the event!

Glisten & Glow All Dressed Up Duo

Good evening dears!  Popping in with a quick (and late - sorry) post to share with you before these polishes launch tomorrow so hang in there and don't go to bed just yet.  Glisten & Glow is releasing 2 collections tomorrow, Experience the Islands - you can see my post HERE and the All Dressed Up Duo.  All Dressed Up consists of basic black and white cremes with fantastic formulas.  I even tried some nail art with them, and failed because I am not that great with art, but I will try again to show you how easy they both are to use with stamping and vinyls.  The All Dressed Up Duo will be available on 7/15 at 9am Eastern.  Now let's check them out.

KBShimmer Mega Flame Collection, Spring 2016

Good morning, happy Sunday!  Are you getting rained out like I am over here in Cali?  So many are moaning and groaning about the rain, but it's so desperately needed.  Plus it's giving me a break from my usual taxi mom duties and breaks from soccer and running.  I think it's more of a mental break than a physical break that I've needed so just getting to not worry over where I need to be is nice.  Plus I didn't go out and race in the rain today, ate a huge chocolate chip waffle for breakfast and I don't even feel guilty! The only thing I can complain about is that all these clouds have been keeping the sun away so I couldn't do sunshine pictures of these gorgeous glittery holos from KBShimmer.  The Mega Flame collection is a set of holos full of micro holo glitters in a tinted base that really wow with their sparkle and shine.  There are 7 shades in the Mega Flame collection and they will be available on 3/15 for $8.75 USD each.  So let's delve in and check out these beauties!

Good morning all!  Happy Super Bowl Sunday!  Hopefully you have plans to attend a gathering and eat mass quantities of snack foods and drink adult beverages while watching the game and the commercials.  I personally don't care for football so I won't pay much attention to the game.  But I will enjoy spending time with a friend while snacking and gabbing about things.  I'm taking mini burritos and beef enchilada dip over to her house, mmmmmm yum!  But before all that I have a post for you featuring the Addicted to Holos February indie box!  This year the ATH box has been updated!  Each box will include 4 polishes for a reduced price of $35 plus shipping.  This months box is full of founding members polishes, but the upcoming months will feature 3 founders and a guest maker (eeee exciting!  Can't wait to see who they have lined up!).  The February Addicted to Holos box will be available for pre-order from 2/8 to 2/15.  Once the pre-order closes the boxes will ship within 2 weeks.  So let's jump in and take a looksee at what this months box has to offer!

Good morning dears!  I'm heading out the door to meet up with some of my running friends to take an easy trail that goes by Levi Stadium!  It'll probably be the only opportunity I'll get to see the Super Bowl 50 decorations up close because once we're taken over by fans it's going to be nuts!  So while I'm off running you can enjoy this post.  I've got the Zoya Whispers collection which is a transitional set, something to tide us over as we wait for Spring.  It's full of soft, creamy (almost crelly formula) polishes.  You can purchase the Whispers collection now, each polish is $9.  So let's go ahead and check these out!
