I love bright and bold colours all year round so there is never a short of them in my collection. These picks are cheap and affordable for anyone and are easy to find.
1. Bubble Gum Pink from e.l.f or eyeslipsface. www.eyeslipsface.com offers a ton of products for only $1.00 that are great quality. They offer nail polish for only a dollar so you cant really go wrong. Tip: sign up for the news letter and get emails on special offers like free shipping, buy 1 get 1 free, and half off sales. Target, Giant Tiger and a hand full of other stores sell some of the products.
2. JORDANA Mellow Yellow! What more can I say?? I am a sucker for cute or clever names. After a few coats this is a great vibrant colour! I ordered it off of www.cherryculture.com and paid $1.50 I think when they had a 20% off code I got in a email from the site.
3. By SINFUL COLORS Just called "Pink" this is a fab neon pink colour with some orangeyish sort of undertones in it is great to rock this summer. I bought this on sale while in Florida at CVS or Walgreens while they had a sale for under $2.00. They also sell it on the cherry culture website. I wear this a ton and do some designs in black to bring the colour out even more.
4. I also bought this one at the same time......Never two words I'd think to put together but well described of the shade MINT APPLE has a nice shimmer to it and a popular shade this year but much cheaper than other brands. These polishes are long lasting I find even without a top coat.
5. Another item I ordered from e.l.f was Passion Pink. This pink coral is a great look thats not to over the top. At only $1.00 these nail polishes are a steal:)
6. Not sure what this shade is called but lets call it LA COLORS ART DECO shade.....SKY BLUE. Well you can find these in pretty much any drug store or super market. I paid $1.99 for it. It has a fine tip to do designs but I just used on of my styling nail brushes to paint my nails with this beautiful shade that totally reminds me of laying in the grass looking at the sky and attempting to guess what figure you see in the clouds....Just me?! haha!
Well these are my top shades I'll be sporting, rocking, and or displaying on my finger nails for the next few months.
Bye for now and thanks for reading my post.

Glymm Box Canada March
Excuse my dry looking hand fellow Zombies!
ANASTASIA BEVERLY HILLS: Hydrafull Gloss. The sample was very small and typical size of what you would get at any makeup counter. It did have a interesting applicator that was flexible plastic. The Glymm cards boast was that it was not sticky however I found it to be rather sticky than other brands I have tried as well as falling flat on "lasting power". A full size tube is $27.00 for 2.2 ml.....Hmm I did find this a bit much for the quality as well as the brand itself. They did also include a coupon for buy two glosses at $27.00 and the third one free.
The second item can be found in any Canadian drug store. BURT'S BEES Naturally Nourishing Milk & Honey body lotion for normal to dry skin. The brand is animal friendly, almost completely natural, and has fab natural scents. I have tried many of the nail and lip products so it was a welcome surprise to find it in my box. I must say the two generous sample sizes where great and I will definitely be purchasing this product in the future. It go's on sheer, absorbing quickly and does not leave a grease feeling on your skin.
Next we got a full size package of NU*ME Feather Hair Extensions. The three pieces where sent out in random colours to everyone and mine happened to be navy blue with black strips....Pretty cool looking. The "100% synthetically crafted from real human hair and ready for heat styling" Glymm's card says although I don't get exactly what the first part of that statement means. These are meant to be DIY but anything that involves me using a pliers like instrument on my hair is a bit to complicated and risky for me.....Having said that I will pin them in using bobby pins or fit the to typical hair extension clips. This full size product of three hair pieces retails for $25.00.
They send M.ASAM/ Magic Fini. Now I must say that I am not a fan of the scent. They sent a 5 ml product sample that was nice. Full size in 30ml for $38.00. Haha I have to say when I opened this I was pretty shocked at how dark it looked and thought "Are you serious?! I'm freaken pale!". When I put it on my hand it actually blended out nice. This product go's on really nice and helps cover uneven skin and pores. I however could not get over the smell of it.
Last product was OCEAN Nail Polish. This full size product of 15 ml retails for $12.00 so it pretty much paid for the whole beauty box. This products is true to its fast drying claims. I do however wish they would have sent us a more vibrant colour to test. The colour I was sent was 295 Chantelle, an almost clear shade even after a few coats making wear and tear really hard to notice and really not my style.
Well this is my first review so hope it was somewhat helpful
