Twinsie Tuesday: Summer to Fall Transitional

This one was sort of hard. In my neck of the woods, we really didn't have summer weather until the end of June going into July. It was just last week that was pretty warm but today was 63 degrees. It's quite odd. But lately, I have been wearing darker colors just because of the weather. However, this one that I am going to show you is a newer polish from a recent collection, I think it's gorgeous.

This is Maybelline Antique Teal. I absolutely love this color! I wish it would've came out sooner this year but it is definitely more of a Fall color. Despite that, I totally would've worn this in the summer. It's not too dark but not too bright. It's not entirely a creme polish and it comes off matte. There are so many ways that this polish can go. I've never really been into the whole matte trend but the option to leave it matte is cool. The one thing that I do wish was different is the amount of flakes that comes off. I can't complain too much because this is one coat. One coat and it covered completely, so over all, this is definitely a win for me and I will most certainly be wearing this one more through out Fall.

What are some of your transition polishes?

Tiny Drugstore Haul

Today while I was snooping around CVS, I found these super awesome deals! Most were 75% off. So pretty much, these items each were no more than $5! 

From the left to right: Physicians Formula Gel Strips and Eye Candy, Maybelline Mineral Power Concealer, L'Oreal Infallible in Lindas Beige, Revlon in Soft Rose, Travalo, Revlon Enamel in Ignite and Perplex, lastly Sally Hansen nail polish quad.

I am estatic! These are great deals! You should definitely check out your local CVS to see if they are having any price cuts on the beauty items. 

So today was my last day of classes/final for my fall semester. The final was worse than the midterm. All the questions that were on the practice final wasnt even on the final. What a waste. I hope I at least passed with a B. Thatd be at least satisfying. 

Tomorrow is my sisters baby shower. Im making her a diaper cake and cake pops. Hopefuly that turns out well. (= I should probably get started on that since I want to do nails tonight as well. 

Have a great weekend!
